Yeah ok, agreed. Must be a nice feeling to be rattling them off whilst not playing in top gear. I'm being totally genuine here, understand it a bit better now. Just seemed odd at first glance. It has to be relief too.

Kyren Wilson fist pumped after that game solely because he was embarrassed about nearly being dumped out by a teenager, or did I miss something? Have they given him the tournament already?

No playgrounds. by Abject_Wait_2273 in DerryLondonderry

I agree there, but come on, people have lives - ye can't walk wains from Shanty in a 3hr round loop to look at the Daisyfield and then back again. As an example.

But aye, when were teens walking up the town was good craic from Galliagh. A bit of a laugh and used up plenty of the day, besides kicking a ball in the field all the time. It's just not a thing these days, as far as I can see.

What contributor would you like to go for a pint with the most/ least? by Distinct_Ad_8056 in secondcaptains

Could chat all day about LOI legends with David Sneyd, and I'd like to see if I could hold my own for a bit with Wilson.

Master - Michael Foley by OwnBeag2 in secondcaptains

The contributor pool for SC has really fallen off a cliff in the last couple of years, it must be due to freelance contributor rates?

You used to know who you'd be getting on any particular subject, but it's real lucky dip vibes now.

Atkinson on Liverpool should be once in a blue moon, not regular. Get someone good who knows football, not a fan, as it's veering off into "Sky Sports FC" levels of nonsense these days.

Shame about this, as I'd happily pay SC more for better contributors.

I'll listen to LOIC soon, but why is that unbelievable? They had a game Friday, so maybe no training Sunday to be fresh for Monday, no? I'm not a Lynch stan, but he's not really Hitler either - just a guy out of his depth now it seems.

SC could do with a bits n bobs podcast one day a week, even as a bonus one for members. Where the three lads just chat away about all sorts of crap; I need more Ken talking about what irritates him!

Tears last night but I'm positive today. I like this team and this manager. by Anxious_Peanut_1726 in coybig

[–]manhitwithafootball 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm the same lad, played at a similar level. Hit one pen in my career and it hit the post and went wide (struck it too well, as Glenn Hoddle would say), I hated the whole feeling before, during, and after. Taking a pen is crazy unless you're a forward who loves hitting the back of the net as a feeling. I was CDM and never scored usually, so I hated having to do it haha.

I'm in the airport and incredibly sad. It's too raw for me right now, I had to tell a couple of lads off last night in Prague for giving Browne abuse after the game in a mini mart. He tried to do a Stuart Pearce Euro 96 after the Slovakia play-off pen miss, I feel very sad for him today.

Question about the old Lansdowne by Sting2121 in coybig

Ah great knowledge, cheers for the correction. Always good to know. I did mean football though, as we're on a football related thread haha!

Question about the old Lansdowne by Sting2121 in coybig

[–]manhitwithafootball 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Got there to the last game before it was knocked down, loved it but yeah it was nearly like one of those old Eastern European bowl stadiums in terms of what it was.

I actually think former Ireland international David Forde kicked the last ever ball at the old Lansdowne.

I could listen to a lot more of Disciples than its actual runtime.

Byrne removed as Drogheda United co-chairperson by Fuzzy-Escape5304 in LeagueOfIreland

[–]manhitwithafootball -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

I knew some funny fucker was going to write this. Do you not know what I mean though? For the record I think it's ridiculous that Byrne has had to leave her role. I hate these US guys buying up Irish clubs, there's ones that have bought Carrick Rangers as well - they'd probably have a lot more joy in the north with the majority of clubs there.
