Gerry Ryan was also a folk hero at Bohs - where he won a league medal and an FAI cup medal before moving to Brighton. A sad loss -

It is an utterly daft way of doing things - Ireland will have played eight games in the qualifiers and will end up losing six of them and winning two - against Gibraltar and Gibraltar. Ireland don't deserve a play-off - and some idiot in the FAI would be daft enough to give Kenny a contract...

Stephen Kenny is an idiot - his tactics have seen Ferguson being a periphery figure in the last two games. The best player in your squad and you make zero effort to get him the ball. I doubt if he touched the ball ten times yesterday evening - and he was ending up in his own half looking for the...

So that no one is in any doubt - I oppose Hamas and Hezbollah - they are fundamentalist religious fanatics who engage in acts of individual terrorism to provoke a reaction. The purpose of the Hamas attacks on Southern Israel was to provoke a response from the Israeli government in the hope that...

I am not the one advocating the widespread use of violence against people protesting in Kensington. But it is clear that you cannot see the comparisons between your comments and the propaganda of the far-right over the past century and right up to the present day. Islamophobia has simply...

You see what you want to see and hear what you want to hear - nothing I can do about that. The noteworthy thing is that 80 years ago you and your ilk would be screaming about batoning and tear gassing Jewish people and those who supported them (and Britain - and especially the Tory party have a...

Americans can be stupid. I suspect that now that Eustace is available, QPR will sack Ainsworth and Eustace will be in the job in a few days.

I remember that last time 'subhumans' was used to catagorise people - back in the 1930s it was.

Indeed - widespread violence and repression by the forces of the state will solve all the problems. Not to mention that you are making major assumptions about what people are doing and saying. But then again - right-wing individuals do tend to jump in with both feet.

Irish singer/songwriter Gemma Hayes with a cover of Kate Bush's 'Cloudbusting'

I haven't seen him playing for Blackburn - but I did watch the last two Irish U-21 games in full - and he was pushed around in both games, particularly against Turkey, and, with the exception of a 10-15min spell in both games, he was largely on the periphery of affairs. I do believe he has the...

Moran and Killian Cahill are in the Irish U-21 squad

Released in 1980 by Irish band Stepaside - and should have been a massive hit

I think Moran definitively has the potential to be a good PL player - but while Scholes might have been 'diminutive', he had a steeliness about him, he had a toughness and wasn't afraid to mix it up. Moran looks lightweight in comparison and I think if he doesn't bulk up a bit (i.e. become...

I think Brighton messed up with Molumby. He did well at Millwall, but it was a big mistake to send him to Preston. Preston tried to covert him from a midfielder who could receive and pass the ball, into a box to box tackling midfielder and I think it caused him big problems - he didn't (and...

Moran is a good footballer - and I have high hopes for him - and he is probably the best Irish midfielder in the Championship (it's not like he has a lot of competition - midfield is by far and away the weakest part of the Irish squad - maybe Jason Knight could be considered better at the...

The late, great Sinead O'Connor - who always stood on the side of the underdog and the oppressed.

A follow up to my previous post about Anaesthesia Associates in the NHS and how the Tories are using them as part of their process to dismantle the NHS. https://www.northstandchat.com/threads/tory-meltdown-finally-arrived-was-incoming.391773/page-984#post-10832177 This should be compulsory...

Denver's defence is worse - two second half collapses and now this - I'd be shocked if Vance Joseph isn't sacked today
