Wouldn't bother me.

I miss the days of everyone really hating Chelsea. Jose the little genius has made himself the hate figure and not the team/club.

Looked this up. Only for Chelsea England would be in trouble. Unless the English clubs pick it up next year they will be in trouble.

So yeah, Premier League fans need Chelsea to keep it up.

Whatever about PL rivalry. I always supported the English teams in Europe. It used to annoy me to see lads who watch the PL every week, who have a panic attack if they missed MOTD to cheer against those teams in Europe. Usually the same lads who call Rooney, Gerrard, Lampard etc wankers when they play for England but Gods when playing for their club. Silly imo. You surely want to see your players do well for the national team too

I enjoy watching Chelseas PL rivals get beaten in Europe. I dislike them all very much.

I enjoy coming 6th in the league but winning the CL and therefore denying Cuntface Redknapp and Spurs CL football. Very enjoyable.

I enjoy Liverpool taking a step towards being an elite club again then promptly taking 2 steps backwards. I find that very enjoyable.

Arsenal are Chelseas bitch. I enjoy that. I also enjoy when they get slapped around by average European teams.

City can go fuck themselves. I enjoy watching them fail. I enjoy that.

What I like the most is when United fall to bits and watching the worlds longest running bandwagon fall apart. I've been calling for it for years and I have been absolutely loving watching it unfold before my eyes. My only complaint is that old whiskey noses sorry glum face isn't shown more up in the executive boxes. BUT I don't enjoy that Dobby. I fucking love it.

Football needs more hate. Cheering on rival clubs in Europe is rugby shite. You'll be wanting people to patronisingly applaud the losing team off the pitch next

Theres a great film out in the cinema at the moment, Hyena. Dark, violent and brooding with a great score and cinematography, it tells the story of a bent coppers shifting loyalties.

I was quite looking forward to it, like the genre, and am a great fan of Stephen Graham, but I thought the film was poor.

THE THE ?, wow, they take me back a bit. Underrated band, cool that they just kept on going. Matt Johnson a voice from my past. Cool fecking dude. This tune would surely do any playlist proud. A few irish bands had this sound back then.

Ive noticed that less businesspeople profess to be man u fans in those newspaper profiles with the godawful caricatures of the interviewee. I guess its harder to make bullshit analogies now they aren't winning all around them.
Which reminds me, I must trawl YouTube for berties stint on the premiership, missed it when it happened, if it actually did happen and it's not just part of some half remembered fever dream I had

Not to that extent, just always find myself rooting for arsenal / Chelsea at this stage without putting too much thought into it. Obviously not too bothered if they lose.

Agree on the hate thing, I hate this shake hands before the game bollocks, they're the fucking enemy for next 90 mins, shake hands after

Happened. Watched the first min of it recently.

United fair weather fan base has been decimated. A lot of publicans have been hit hard in the pocket.

On a football related topic. Will RTE be showing a live LOI game every week on Friday night or did they just show Rovers because it was the season opener? Very hard to follow it down here without going to Cork or Limerick to watch games and that's not always possible. Soccer republic on a Monday night is grand but a live game each week would be better.

RTÉ and Setanta have deals to show games. Not too sure how it works but on average every 3 weeks or so you will get a game on RTÉ probably. They probably show the minimum and keep their budget for cup games towards end of season.

Last year they showed around 15/16 league games over the 33 weeks, mostly Friday but some Saturdays as well, plus 4 or 5 cup games near the end. SetantaIRL also weighed in with about 10 games.

They last won the title in 2012/13 not 1989, don't be going all Mark Twainish now. (sorry that's me going all Mark twainish)
A Security gaurd at the last company I worked for was the father of that disgraced Td McNulty (remember the FB perving) well he was a huge Lolpool hater. His last words to me where. Will, I can't believe it, it will be unbearable if they win the title. Lovely man but in the scheme of things the footie is just banter, you are taking it too far if you are sitting in a pub wearing a PL jersey and shaking hands with the opponent/jersey wearer when the game is over. Sad about Paddy, his son must be suffering but for the sake of my respect for Paddy I hope it wasn't Suarez that finished him off.

Thanks, will keep an eye on it. Got the LOI bug last year when I jumped on the Dundalk bandwagon. A mate of mine living down here is from there and we had good banter with some Cork fans in his pub last season. And since I changed jobs I will get to catch a few more games this season and maybe travel to one at some stage hopefully. Also, another mate of mine is working with Cork now so be nice to follow their progress and his.

I'm sure shares in Keenex have gone through the roof this past 18 months with the ABUs wanking and the United fans crying.

This. I hate all you other cunts and hope you fail miserably.

I must have imagined all Dobbys posts every time Liverpool made a balls of things in Europe this season.

Racing Post was saying today that if Mullins' 4 came in the bookmaking industry was said to lose in the region of £100m.

It would take years for the PL to lose it's 4th spot and even then it would only happen if the Italian clubs crushed in Europe which is never going to happen.

hmm vastly more thanks for Davs wrong post than the post correcting Dav.

Found that hilarious tbh. But not in the least surprising.

[AndyFatBastard]

I still hate Chelsea. Not as much as I used to. Nowadays I have a grudging respect for the likes of Mourinho or Drogba, but they are still right up there with the world's biggest cunts. I actually like Gary Neville more than I like Mourinho at this point, which is quite an achievement on Gary's part. Drogba has mellowed a lot and seems to have spontaneously developed a sense of humour in his 30s. That was a good move by him, too.

[ArmaniJeans]

Mourinho is fantastic, from his coaching ability down to his absolutely top notch wumming.
Shouldn't really admit it as a Liverpool fan.

Excellent article in the Grauniad today about the stupidity of liberal identity politics:

http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2015/mar/11/mainstream-left-silencing-sympathetic-voices

Assumption creep may be accurate in some cases. We all know about the “I’m not a racist, but … ” arguments. But more often than not, it simply isn’t true. To insist otherwise is lazy. It’s just a way of making sure people who have opinions contrary to your own stay safely in their boxes – the boxes marked “bad people”. To actually address the issues is thus avoided, because who needs to debate with a bad person? It’s enough just to condemn them.
