Mate, this is a brilliant post. I came on to add the exact same sentiments you wrote in your last paragraph. You put it perfectly, so I'll just repeat it:
"In terms of the Irish media, nationality means fuck all and I don't like the tone some on here take regarding that. They are parrots for...
I really liked Istanbul, but the total shambles of a transport network and the medieval barter system economy for taxis, food and drink, sadly means I’ll probably never return.
I don’t mind a bit of a barter for taxis on holidays, it’s sometimes part of the charm and getting to know the locals...

But they’re absolutely nowhere near the top 5 English sides ever imo.
I love this treble winning team, and the fact it’s off the back of winning 3 titles on the bounce is just absolutely extraordinary, and I think gives...
This is a once in a lifetime kind of game, some fortunate Blue out there will no doubt want to experience it in the 2nd best category of seats that money can buy! ;-)
