Haven't you been paying attention jimbo, he's not a doctor. This is all a lie to disguise the fact that he's a professional athlete.

I'm actually loving the complete bs that some are making up on this subject at this stage. Its amazing how much time some have devoted to talking about this over and over and over and then just making stuff up. All to get a rise out of people.......I suppose you take your pleasures where you find them

Trust me, trust me I'm a doctor!

Jack McCaffrey reminds me of Dr. Bob from the Muppets, similar hair style.

A few weeks ago we sent all the Joxers and Jackeens homeward ta think again!"
Huh?

I'm a little off actually.

Dublin gets €1.23m of €11m of total games development.

You can see that nearly €4m is being spent across the rest of the country on development staffing."
So what's McKenna on about? It's not just him saying this and everybody believes him? That can't be what all this fuss is based on?

The hysteria rises to a crescendo as the inevitable approaches. It reminds me of the David Coleman skit on Spiting Image where he gets more and more shrill until his head explodes. It's a total waste of time to even engage with hatred. It will not be reasoned with. It is the antithesis of reason.
I'm taking the line that it is the inevitable product of our brilliance.

Why are gratuitously insulting posts like this allowed? This is pathetic tripe.

You'd wonder what Ewan (highly biased hate filled against Dublin) MacKenna was using as reference?

Obviously very poorly researched

It is.

It's exactly what it's based on.

Regurgitated BS from a highly questionable source as was recently proven without doubt by the fella's own hate filled words, despite his best efforts to hide such.

But unfortunately those wanting it to be true hoover it up!

Says it all. Shameless stuff

Ahh sure that chap only n has time for true Dubs supporters who could reel off names like the Foley brothers and Snitchy Ferguson et al. Real salt of the earth, authentic Dubs who remind him of the great 50's team. His Junior Cert history project was on the !913 Lockout so Reckon he's actually living in the past, poor lad.

So you are saying that the figures quoted by Ewan McKenna and several others in the media in relation to the allocation of grant development money by The GAA between 2008 and 2017 is incorrect . If so why has John Horan not unequivocally said the same thing and why has he not provided the figures to substantiate this assertion ? Surely that is the least that Dublin in particular and The GAA in general deserve.

Who's this McKenna guy?

We can all think for ourselves and see clearly. Dublin GAA was pumped with money to try and keep soccer and rugby at bay.

Now the GAA have created a monster.

So precious.

Comparing Jack to Dr. Bob is some sort of crime against humanity?

Junior Cert?

After a post like that you'd think you'd at least have the cop to know pre 1992 was the Inter Cert.

That whole post. It's horrific abuse. I've zero respect for you, you ageist. That's beyond insult. That's discrimination on one of the 9 major grounds of discrimination. Age. You've taken the biscuit this time Avoli, totally gone down in my estimation. Which wasn't much to start with.
