Replying To GeniusGerry:  "Yes we should apologise lads. Would hate the poor guy to be forced to do a Connolly and 'take time away' from the forum due to the words of a Kerryman. Sensitive souls, these Dubs"
Lads insult each other on the pitch but what was said to McMahon crosses a serious line.

The people who defend the behaviour are as bad as the lad who said it. I would never back a galway player who did anything similar.

I suppose if you heard someone was suffering from depression youd tell them to get over it

Replying To Themall1916:  "What was allegedly said and were you there to witness this discussion? Was the discussion all one way or was it a two way thing?"
I wouldn't repeat it but McMahon has talked about it in an interview . He didnt name the player. I would have.

Was it Kieran who said it?

Spot on.
It sums them up to be honest.

It was absolutely disgraceful and not a single 1 kerry poster on here has condemned it.

So don't be fooled by their fake niceties.
They don't deserve the love in they get from most..!

There is always a very subtle but edgy element to Kerry GAA, its apparent in a lot of other counties, including my own of course. A difference however that sets Kerry apart is that Kerry try to maintain a false image of maturity, and superiority, the god-given right, the divine right. Butter wouldn't melt. Always a plethora of false modesty and empathy for teams when they're winning, and excuses and yakety yak when they lose. I still remember the abuse and vitriol from 2001 when Meath beat Kerry by 15 points in an all-Ireland semi. To this day they still blame the white jerseys they wore on the day. Its a sense of superiority that likely goes back a few generations, but its also masked with huge issues with self esteem and image, and pock marked by insincerity. Its not real. When Kerry are winning all-Irelands everything is a-ok, when they're not winning all-Irelands the ugly head rears again. Im as interested in sorting out the issues of the GAA as anyone, and yes everyone else has suffered while Dublin got bigger, better, and richer and that isnt up for debate at this stage, but Kerry fell short this decade and thats just it. They got close but not close enough and thats not anyone's fault. Dont worry, youll be back winning all-Irelands soon enough, maybe one out of every 3/4 that the Dubs somehow mess up. I think 2020 could be a big year for Kerry, they play great football no question about it but be wary of wolves in sheep's clothing.

When Tyrone were beating it was all about bullied, puke football. When Kerry done same to Cork and Mayo it was all about laying markers and manning up .kerry supporters can be very patronising when winning but true colours show when defeated.

Spot on. And the reason I don't like Kerry supporters. Not all. Just the ones I've met and definitely the ones online.

Good post

It's blatantly obvious guff

Painfully blatant.

But they seem ignorant to the fact that they've made an artform out of insulting peoples intelligence with their disingenuous and highly dishonest yammering yerra crap..

Really its as see through as it comes.

Nothing will ever take the smile off my face watching Gavin and the lads stuffing them for #5
