Do we really need Cork? I think we should let Cork float off and be there own country then.

That way all the Corkonians will be happy. We could have a nice trading relationship with them

I think you need a few more years at school.

This is so inane it's hard to come up with a reply.

I think we need a poll with the only option being yes .

Us Cork people already left Ireland. Ye dumb eejits north of us just haven't noticed yet. It's not a coincidence that an Taoiseach is a Cork lad god bless him and a fine job he's doing aswell. The foreign affairs langer is also a proud Corkman. This is why we haven't won an all Ireland recently as we're not in Ireland anymore😁

I didn't notice either, maybe things that happen in Cork are not as newsworthy

Things in Cork don't "happen" us Corkonians make them happen. Warmer Winters, good pubs and West Cork is the Lanzarote of Ireland in Summer with the beaches. What isn't there to like.

Good news for Tipperary and its newly-acquired coastline. So long langers

Since the double in 1990 we haven't had much all Ireland success in both codes at all. Still though 1990 was a great year for all Irish people, and it was even better if you were from Cork as well! Any county can win one senior all Ireland, but Cork are still the only county since 1900 to win both senior all Irelands in the one year. Whether it's pride (and i have serious pride in being from Cork) envy, or hatred, no other county (with the exception of possibly Dublin) brings out peoples emotions like we do. People seem to either love us or hate us.😁

Sure why not.

Cork is the most productive county in the country anyway. Let's take our Apple industry, our Pfizer money, the rest of the tech and pharma industry money that's based here, our meat, fish and dairy and the maritime and shipping industry.

Cork would be happily loaded without the drain of the rest of the country dragging around our necks.
