workrider good to hear from you, I hope norn is all ok too.
Hey listen you should be doing a lot better than 4th top my friend ...... and 4th bottom is just about where we deserve to be! ![]() I look at the screen in front of me and the Forum is called Irish Sports. There are 13 posts from the same person, with titles such as the following: "Aine Lawlor Dressed In Black" "The Charity Industry" "They Really Hate Women" "Refugees No Longer Welcome in Killiney" Clearly all of the above are all about Irish Sports. workrider I will contribute €10,000 out of my own pocket to help this individual into the old people's home or wherever it is that he needs to be ...... and let them listen to it instead of us. |

We are nearly as bad as ye. Delighted Fenlon has left the ship , terrible football and hardly a shot on goal under him. Bradley dispite his inexperience has a least given the players the office to attack .

Best wishes for the remainder of the season workrider, I came to the 3-1 defeat and we were abject at times.
Not that you'll need it but good luck at Galway tomorrow, sure to be a great day! |

You have the short end soldier,
All those threads were over the course of a year or so by one of the better posters on here but were raked up today by someone trying to belittle him. It back fired imo as it showed how forward thinking wildman is and how he has consistantly called it right, Might not be sports but the irish forum was always about more than sports. |

I remember a few years back one of my best friends from school and after was entertaining some clients at sligo races and rang me for a few tips.
I hadnt looked at the card but was at home and doing a few bets so told him to give a chance to study and ring me before each race. First race i gave him a winner , cant remember the price but it was decent about 5 / 6 /7 to 1. Second race again a winner around 3/1 from memory but third race i gave him a loser and he went bezerk. While he lost some money it wasnt his concern but some of his clients lost all they had won earlier. He called me useless even though he was up to a level stake. I didnt answer his calls for the rest of the day, My point is the tipsters/form readers that share their work will eventually get sick of getting abused by non gamblers/understanders and the forum dies which puts off maybe one person and so on and on. |

have I read this right?
An occasional poster has offered to stump up 10K to pack Borneo off to an Old Folks home ??? |
|
By:
" or where ever it is that he needs to be "
These are his words and shows its even broader than that. I'm going to try and take him up on his kind offer,Workrider who all will agree is trustworthy knows this gentlemen so he can organise it. If he can swing this I will go to Meath,go to a Shamrock Robers match go anywhere to sign on the dotted line and agree to never post here again. Workrider is in Galway today,more than likely Naas tomorrow so here's hoping he will swing into action on Wednesday. |

Be the hokey.
You will be bereft without us, Borneo. SOF, make sure the funds are paid directly to the care home or asylum or wherever you think provides the most suitable treatment. If you needed a dig out for treatment, Borneo, you only had to ask. We could have raised a few quid for you. |

By:
Come on Ozy I cited the line specifically to prevent what you are now proposing.
" or where ever it is that he needs to be " I would be bereft without you so if you want to add to the 10 Grand it would sweeten the pill. |

By:
There's history between Wildman and the Soldier Ozy, Soldier posted a very vitriolic comment toward the Wildman some time ago. I'd say a few here remember it.
|
|
By:
The wildman isn't for turning. He knows full well this is a sports forum, a betting site. But despite being continuously told by several posters, he steadfastly refuses to refrain from posting political threads here.
He uses this forum to bolster his severely self inflated ego and it has become more than tiresome. |
|
By:
his posts are interesting and on point and althought they may not be sports related they are a much better read than some dick like snap telling us some odds on chance will win! as for severely self inflated egos,ozy easily takes that crown.

Didn't he tell ya Mullins could well to be top trainer at Galway Slick?
Knows his racing very well, nothing to do with any ego but more a sadness with the way the world is going at the moment.(imho) |
|
By:
We can all see the civilised world is in deep ***t. We don't need a daily running commentary. ESPECIALLY AS THIS IS A BETTING SITE AND A SPORTS FORUM!!!!!!
The wildman is always right. Was probably a headmaster in his time. What he said went. Sadly, it has been carried over to here. Don't you dare disagree with him............ |
|
By:
I've no qualms disagreeing with him Slick, i tend to think he is generally right most of the time.
He probably would prefer if he was "disagreed" with if the opposing points were valid. It is a betting site and a sports forum,but the ones complaining don't put a lot up in those regards instead leaving it up to "someone" else or worse plain incapable. |
|
By:
I agree. I have come around after many years not being sure what I agreed with, but now have the evidence, worn the tee-shirt - it is best to witness many things in life and come to one's own conclusion, based on the facts placed in front of you. Anything else, based on hearsay for example, can not be too far from just plain old prejudice.
While Wildman does go on a bit, I must say I can see his points. Yes, this is an Irish part of the forum. If we just spend all our time in the country, even only Dublin, we can be somewhat distanced from the events around us in the wider world, although they are beamed into our TV screens on a daily basis - sometimes a slightly nuanced version if one just follows the BBC/RTE. I was fortunate to speak to many ordinary folk in the UK upto Brexit. I could see clearly why they were swayed on the immigration points, even if the mainstream debate was not about immigration. My only criticism. If you keep labouring the point, many just turn off, or worse still, do not even open the thread. |

By:
Many people have no interest in current affairs which is fair enough.
My hope would be they wouldn't open these threads,its possible to ignore them. There is nothing wrong with a good old fashioned ruck on here,I've had many and enjoyed them. I like that cut and thrust,even admired some of the names they called me ( Wildklan the best ) I'm a thick skinned individual at the best of times but only once here did anyone get me,that was the opening poster. This cowardly contributor who's sole contribution was an Equus like devotion to Ballydoyle gleaned some personal information about me. He discovered I was a widower and that my wife had a tough death,the things that man said about a woman he never knew or met were beyond vile,they were the product of a sick cruel mind. I don't hold grudges but for this gentleman I make an exception,its why I will gladly accept what we all know to be a bogus offer. |
|
By:
You need to get your facts straight old man, as always.
I made no comment whatsoever about your wife's tough death, because I know nothing about your wife having a tough death. I'm saddened to hear that she did. I wish her peace and I hope that she is now in a better place, free from all forms of pain that she suffered. |

" just desserts " was your description,I remember it well
You spelt it with two Ss rather than the old style one. My oldest maxim is " sticks and stones etc " so it was my fault for letting it get to me. I never reported you and still believe you are entitled to your opinion. More to the point what about this promised 10 Grand. I look on it like the deal McManus had with Paul Carberry over drinking. Workrider can be the referee,I will sign on the dotted line and this place will be like those modern universities,a safe place for people with progressive ideas. |

Any update please on whether the £10k been paid up yet?
A deal's a deal. We've had enough of people reneging on bets/promises on the Politics Forum, and even Chit Chat. Three absolute shockers that I know of in just a few years involving many thousands of pounds. I'd like to think that the men of the Irish Forum surely have greater integrity and will ensure that every penny of this is duly paid, even though the Community would be a poorer place without WMB's words of wisdom. |

Well said Alun,twas "big talk",if it comes to fruition i will pay a few years subscription for the "Irish Field" to be delivered to the address.
