Bob Geldof is a Geebag!!!

    This insufferable p r i c k. In the Irish Times interview he waffles on about what a "rebel" he was at his wealthy private school. Even claiming he was followed by Special Branch. !!!

    His Walter Mitty view of Ireland knows no end.

    I recall a few years ago, on a documentary for BBC4 (on folk music) he went on about how the Irish state were against folk music! Even before that he claimed his pioneering band were looked over because they weren't traditional.

    In said documentary he even claimed the Irish govt were terrorists as they helped (which they barely did) northern nationalists from being terrorised by loyalists/British.

    Yet he received a knighthood from Thatcher and co., who of course also supported apartheid among other things. The f##king hack!

    In short Ireland was conspiring against his band. (though not Lizzy or U2 oddly enough).

    No doubt he supports UKIP now. Why wouldn't he?

    Diarmuid Gavin the gardener called him a conformist in an interview a while back (as Geldof was rude to him several times trying to be cool).

    A few years ago, TV3 news did a tiny item about a planned Geldof concert in Italy and only 40 or so tickets were sold. LOL
    I understand he went welly about them doing that.

    Along with the Daily Heil (who supported the Bloody Sunday masscare vehemently) he claimed that Omagh was "Britain's 9/11" and contributed money to the cause.

    YET, for such a loudmouth, not a squeak about Bloody Sunday or the British terrorist attacks on Ireland in his hometown!!!

    Incidentally, he has about as much chance of becoming President of Ireland as Nick Griffin or Bertie. Doesn't look like he's getting the FF nomination.

    Were any of his nonsense, attitudes, statements or hypocrisy ever brought up in any interview or otherwise. Don't think so.

    Rant over...for now.

    He's more insufferable than Bono and that's no mean feat.

    Especially the ''priests and police'' bit but yeah , he has a voice like a donkey with a sore throat .

    Geldof is, and always has been, an attention seeker.

    He's just trying to stir the sh!t in these tough times so that people will still think that he's either a rebel or a wanker, or worse, relevant.

    The only person he is interested in is himself.

    I seriously doubt the Special Branch followed him around - I'd say that's a combination of bullsh!t or coke induced paranoia.

    Knew his dad - old Bob...very decent gentleman and a funny guy...young Bob made his money largely indirectly from charities...now has grown into an old blowhard...he left a long time ago.
    Kindly shut the fuking door after you Bob.

    Don't forget, people, including users on here, are related to him....

    Yawn... do you read "Hello" magazine about the trivial lives of celebrities ?
    This sort of celebrity watching is best left to the homosexual community.

    Britain's 9/11 ?

    What a POS..

    It was a tragedy in Northern Ireland which shook the whole island. ****ing idiot. There were Irish victims there too Bob you ****.

    As for the claims about our Government aiding terrorists, you don't need to cross the border to find state collusion Bob.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,669 ✭✭✭Riddle101


    Bob Geldolf seems like the Jim Corr of the music industry.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 558 ✭✭✭Metallitroll


    if Bob's a geebag, then i dunno what to call his daughter? :confused: facies Ed Milliband apparently.. or for the sake of some exposure, at least..
    thats right, the british polithingian with eyes like pissholes in the snow.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,775 ✭✭✭✭kfallon


    FYI.....the term 'geebag' is reserved for the 'fairer' sex

    At least our usernames are better than the names he gave his kids.

    Actually, I went to the same school as Geldof (all be it years after). Some of our teachers were in the same classes and taught the guy. Said he was a bit of a trouble-maker and did eventually get expelled. So I don't think he's lying.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 169 ✭✭alandublin15


    daddy ... whats a geebag?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 21,190 ✭✭✭✭Latchy


    It might be just coincidence that his musical career was on the wane just before Live Aid which then catapulted him into sainthood .

    Midge Ure who was second in command to the whole Africa project was not to happy when he found out that Bob had pushed Ultravox down the pecking order at the Live Aid gig either .

    I watched Bob's performance on the LLS weekend before last and I thought ' a song with potential ,just the wrong singer ' .

    Diarmuid Gavin & TV3 News eh?

    Tell me more.


    Gavin in a radio interview found him rude to him. (google them both).


    TV3, it was years ago. His concert was cancelled due to lack of interest (not for charity) (google it though).

    No one lives their life 100% unhypocritically. Compared to most celebrities he's a breath of fresh air even if he isn't perfect.

    I know, I just wanted to use it. Hadn't heard it in a while. (havn't been to Leeson st for some time:).)

    Fannyhead is a good alternative though, but "Geldof the Geebag" has alliteration in it.:D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,084 ✭✭✭Hyperbullet


    OP it took you until now to figure that out?

    He was interviewed in the Times.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 21,190 ✭✭✭✭Latchy

    He's a prick..he made millions of pounds from his "charity" work and killed more people than he'll ever save with his greed.

    Him and Bono will both share the same cell in hell.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 241 ✭✭Dizraeligears


    Hes hard to take a lot of the time,but Jaysus his music is truly appaling.
