Just for you, JimBobDub. The Blind Man at Croke Park' by Liam Macgabhann 'Listen, asthore, for these eyes are sealed, Listen once more, when Kerrymen take the field, Tell an old man who saw them in days of old, Do they walk proudly in their green and gold? Listen, asthore, when Kerry take the field, Tell me when they attack and when they yield; Say if they fail; asthore, I'm blind and old, Tell me they'll not dishonour the green and gold.'

Great bit of poetry that. Sadly the days of honouring the jersey being the only consideration are long gone in intercounty football.

She's great pal. I'll let her know you were asking after her. Best of luck with the whole, 'Kerry isn't a place it's a state of mind' thing that you have going on there. I'll remember it next time I'm down in da kingdom. skillet (Limerick) - Posts: 1056 - 27/08/2017 13:43:45 2038576 Link 0 |

Do, maybe if a few Limerick people felt a bit more like that he might get yer thumb out of yer butts and start taking inter county football seriously

Thanks for the advice Hermit. Equally wish you well with your plans for Kerry hurling over the next few years....

We were in the same division as you the last two years but if you knew your hurling you would be aware of that

I always wondered how to spell 'Lyreacrompane'. I remember John B Keane talking about an auld 'coolaruan' of a lad courting a young girl from Lyreacrompane! In fairness that's a really nice verse. Laois76 (Laois) - Posts: 1270 - 27/08/2017 14:41:11 2038618 Link 6 |
Jaysus if Dublin lose today I hope our posters on here will have a little more class. Maybe some won't but hopefully they will. MesAmis (Dublin) - Posts: 13704 - 27/08/2017 14:41:46 2038619 Link 3 |
So ye boys start a thread insulting my county and you have the cheek then to go on at a fella for telling ye where to go??? And considering walking about Dublin last night I had 4 separate fella's with Dublin accents come up to me as I was minding my own business to tell me how shite Kerry were, I wouldn't hold my breath about the decency of some of your countymen. All most of ye boys on here can do is kick team's when they are down and pile on bile- ye must be proud of yourselves.

Jaysus that is what one calls a doggerel, certainly what we saw yesterday is way short of those lines.

My rant wasn't directed at Dublin people, just some of yer more bitter posters on this website and those from many other counties that can't hide their glee when Kerry get a reverse but sure why bother actually reading anything anyone posts up.

Kerry were an embarrassment to their footballing heritage yesterday. They were nasty, cynical and negative. Before the ball was even thrown in three Mayo forwards were pulled to the ground. They set out to bully and intimidate and when Mayo and David Gough stood up to them they had no answer. They had fifteen men behind the ball and still couldn't stop the Mayo runners. They showed no imagination in transitioning from defence to attack. They were totally outplayed and outthought. Their lack of discipline was astonishing on and off the pitch. Anthony Maher was introduced with a few minutes to go and Kerry chasing the game. He should have been sent off before the game was restarted in a display of petulance that was reflective of their overall performance. It was as poor a display as we have seen from Kerry in many a year. themaddog (Wicklow) - Posts: 130 - 27/08/2017 15:38:15 2038654 Link 1 |
Keep talking ye brave men behind yer I-phones, but when Dublin or Tyrone or Mayo lose next you won't see any Kerry posters starting these threads or laughing at ye. But that's just the difference between us and some of the rest of ye. TheHermit (Kerry) - Posts: 6354 - 27/08/2017 15:41:15 2038655 Link 0 |
Well, that certainly taught me.... Good luck Hermit, you appear to have enough people on here to fight with without me to contend with.
