Presumably because the perception of some on here is that arguments/debates are strengthened or won by the number of posters who support or like a particular side of a debate. Often you see a poster using perceived support for their opinion as a sign that the other poster with an opposing view is out of touch, when the reality is that there is only two people having the discussion the whole time."]Is that something that bothers you?

Despite the disappointment of giving up a two goal lead, I thought it was a very refreshing performance for 70 odd minutes by Ireland last night. We all know the off-the-field events have dominated the lead-up. I think the players deserve some credit for the way they have performed. Some of the link-up play between Moynan, Parrott and Idah was reminiscent of the good old days of Duff and Keane. Lockjaw (Donegal) - Posts: 10487 - 02/10/2026 11:38:07 2695905 Link 1 |

I'd have takes that result before hand. Disappointing as it was it was a really solid performance when we're missing a couple of key players as well

I have sympathy for the Man city supporters. Probably a points deduction is the fairest outcome. Say a 60 point deduction. Down to the Championship. That is punishment enough in my view. Other teams involved in financial irregularities too. Not much punishment though. galwayford (Galway) - Posts: 2779 - 03/10/2026 13:34:23 2696007 Link 1 |

They need to be hammered and an example set otherwise it's a pure joke. Large fine, demoted from Premier League, no Euro Competitions for 5 years.

Absolutely, straight to the Non League and stripped of all their titles. It's long past time that this was addressed.

Bit of an outlier here but honestly i think most of the outrage here is a little bit phoney, maybe a bit of self righteousness involved. Seniorleague (Galway) - Posts: 357 - 03/10/2026 17:48:20 2696025 Link 0 |

They broke the agreed FFP rules however much you or anyone else may disagree with them. The club is tarnished forever more and they will be relegated.
