Mayo GAA Discussion - Part 3

DoctaDee

Welcome to the Mayo GAA discussion thread - Chapter 3, yer trotting them out quicker than a Mills & Boon Romance !.

This is one of the most active forums on Boards.ie. As a result, discussion can get quite heated. But there are certain things posters must realise are simply not OK to post:

- Personal abuse

- Rumours about players'/managers'/anyone's personal lives.

- Trolling.

- Accusations of trolling. Report a post if you suspect it to be trolling.

I'm here to discuss a topic but you seem sensitive to the matter.

You find it hard to accept that the mayo player lost his temper and had a moment of madness and with that cost Mayo another All Ireland. what a real shame.

I am a Kildare man with Mayo family! Trust me, no disrespect to the guy, the meltdown was a blessing on my watch given the circumstances, but on a personal level I have empathy for the lad and wouldn't be damning him to a future in exile like you at 20 years of age.

He has learnt a serious lesson at a high cost and hopefully he will realise he has to address that (I don't know if he has history) and is given a second chance. He was a star in a team that reached an All Ireland final so has done enough for forgiveness. And indeed there is a lot that people should be proud of his representing of his County this Summer.

Ignorant people just can't level their heads and look at the bigger picture here. TBH, I doubt you even believe the things you are posting here yourself, you are just looking for a reaction

Give him his ban, a Category 5 one, and put the ball in his court then and let him earn a second go at county football. I anticipate that is exactly what the Mayo football people would do

"Name calling" (or calling it as it is) an anonymous Internet user is a lot less harsh than blackening the name of a young footballer who is exposed to the public by name who knows himself like everyone he f*cked up in the incident and damning when he is down.

Don't feel sorry for yourself.

I think he was justified in this case.

Justified

There was absolutely no justification for what he did, and I imagine it will be quite some time before any county manager takes a chance on him again with the temperament he displayed.

Think he was referring to my"telling off" to the postef

Popping up on every County thread with provocative posts merely designed to derail the thread

I am entitled to give my opinion on the incident. If you don't like my response why bother posting if you want to resort to name calling.

Definitely. And will be back in the Mayo jersey soon all going well. A great young lad.

Well, lets just send him off to the knacker yard altogether. Put him out of his misery.

Jesus Christ. He is about 20 years old. He wrongfully pushed a ref out of frustration. He'll get his suspension, serve it, hopefully learn, and move on as a more mature footballer.

once a liability always a liability. A leopard doesn't change his spots.

Exactly! Why bother reading it? Every county in Ireland has its gombeens, why play their game and mention it again. Its as bad as retweeting a Bernard Flynn article!!!

Idiots, derive from idiots and inevitably breed new idiots

Its one of the problems now which has given everyone the ability to be a critic (I'm including myself!) without those reading having any idea if the person is in fact knowledgeable in the area or not.
Idiots always existed but were consigned to pub corner or school yards. Now they have full access to other counties fans and players.
Just listening to how Jame H and Eamon Fitz got abuse and letters in the post. People rang Kevin Keanes parents after the final against Donegal and gave their "opinion", he got abuse on the street.

Banter pages are trolls with internet access. Some are good in fairness but they attract other fans who just troll. Same as some of the main pages of Joe.ie, RTE.ie etc. Most of the Mayo articles are first commented by other counties.

Ignore them, they won't make u happy

Thats why the ignore button is so good on boards.ie

U20 was disappointing, we had the game for the winning with some poor shooting and that goal chance. Hit the post, bar and hawk eye but Kildare we excellent. Some fine players there.

Rochford seems to be staying, so will be interesting times ahead.

I couldn't help but see a Dublin GAA Banter Page looking for no less than a lifetime ban for Jordan Flynn. Jesus these lads have nothing better for doing and probably miss Mayo being out of the Championship, more than we actually do.

And yes, we've our own set of clowns with similar pages. Thank fcuk it doesn't really translate into real life.

You couldn't help but see?

In a "the money was just resting in my account" kind of way?

Once something pops up on your phone it can be hard enough to unread. I don't follow these pages but they appear every now and again when people are tagged/comment etc.

Every county has them. Probably shouldn't have given them oxygen in fairness.

Leeroy discusses the year that was 2018,the changes in the backroom team and offers a strong indication the boys will be ready for a strong push come January.

He offers the opinion it's more of a challenge dealing with Joe Brolly in relation to his new found punditry gig on The Sunday Game than marking Diarmuid Connolly.Tongue firmly on cheek.:pac:

@Thetalkingbread. Who was saying it was a witch hunt and being pc ?? I read the last few pages and not one person seems to have said anything like that.

The word witch hunt or similar words have been all over social media (ie facebook, twitter) whenever the incident was brought up the last 24 hours and people discussing what he did.

I obviously was just speaking about a consensus by many people .

Don't try to read into this comment that I am launching a tirade of judgment at the chap, I am just stating that it is fair game to discuss the incident and the ban it merits w/o people using these sort of deflective statements to halt the discussion by saying he is only a young lad (he is 20)
