Zurich,
It was a pretty safe bet that I'd agree with what you said mate. Hated Giles with a passion and he always got plenty of (usually well deserved) grief from the old Kippax. Giles was a rag mistake. He was a half decent, if dirty, player that the rags let go.

The other piece of wisdom was the comment about the off switch. It constantly baffles me why any fans, particularly City fans continue to watch, read or listen to those forms of media that we well know are shite. Are some City fans that desperate to get any news about City that they feel obliged to assist the audience or sales figures of this fuckwittery and crap?

Never ever forget that it was Eamon Dunphy who took the stand in a courtroom and gave evidence that got Roy K--t of the hook by admitting that it was Dunphy's idea to lie about the Alfie incident in the book. Effectively ending any chance of City or Alfie suing for compensation....and City fans still allow him into their front rooms?

God forbid.
I KNOW THAT YOU BELIEVE THAT YOU UNDERSTOOD WHAT YOU THINK I WROTE, BUT I AM NOT SURE YOU REALISE THAT WHAT YOU READ IS NOT WHAT I MEANT

"If a way to the better there be, it exacts a full look at the worst." I don't think Thomas Hardy watched RTE much though.

I was so angry at the time watching the game on rte i was fit to kill.At half time Dunphy et al(but mainly Dunphy) had me riled up but even the commentary was disgusting during the match.

You could sense they were really enjoying watching City struggle, you could hear it in their voices.I could not bring myself to listen to the debate after the game i turned it straight off, i had already had enough and i knew what was coming anyway.
