Barry, that is exactly what our fitba is missing

I can remember when no fan even knew what the players in our teams were earning, wasn't important to us, but now it is all about how much we can pay them no matter how pash they actually are

In the 150 odd years of the game only a handful of guys have ever transferred, usually because of work or whatever. You play for the county you were born/grew up in and thats it. A lot of guys who play for the likes of Donegal, Cork, kerry etc.. live and work in Dublin and travel home for training

I remember when Rangers fans could focus on football, Piff. Nowadays we don't even know what that is!!

When im over for a game and I see guys getting out of there seats to applaud someone taking a corner. I could never do that. I think the guy is getting pretty well paid and hes only taking a corner, does he really deserve this adulation. He hasn't banged one in from 30 yards. Maybe its my GAA heritage coming out..I dunno

I did applaud Drogba when he was warming up at the Chelsea match a few years back, truth be told, but that was only because he was a world class player.

Barry and Blue

Fair points well made to be fair, Blue, I bet Ibrox does not rock any less that it ever has

And Barry, bang on, fans who wet themselfs when we get over the half way line have been spoiled so they have

"Fair points well made to be fair, Blue, I bet Ibrox does not rock any less that it ever has"

It has. Ibrox in recent years has been awful. So so quiet. Same seems to be said of Parkhead when I see it on Gilette soccer saturday. There seems to be little atmosphere apart from the singing sections at both stadiums.

The SNP rushed in their rules and now football fans are scared to sing at football games.

I know im harping on a bit lads and I apologise

The Dublin team had a training session followed by an A vs B game at my loca club a few weeks ago. I was at it, the training was fierce, there were hundreds of kids there with jerseys etc all looking for a photo or an autograph. Every one of them players stayed back over an hour and half to sign/pose with the kids. Every one of em had a smile on their face too and the kids were ecstatic. Thats why I love the sport, the guys are just honoured to wear the shirt and they do there 6am (before work) and 7pm (after work) double training sessions, without any complaints of being tired. Tbey do it because they love it.

Im away lads. G'night.

COYBIB!

You ain't harping on at all Barry. It's interesting to learn about new sports.

I would be the same about F1. I could go on for hours about that.

The only beef have with the GAA is the Gaelic "Football' tag...It's not fkin' football if the ball spends more time in yer hands than being booted...

Hurling is great though, I have a Hurley racquet by my front door for bad people who might try to harm me....
