The Rise and Rise of James McClean

From Derry City on a couple of hundred quid a week to the Premier League and a £5,000 per week deal with Sunderland. Not content with that, he then plays so well that his wages are quadrupled and he stands a good chance of going to Euro 2012.

Not bad going in just over a year, is it?

Roy of the Rovers stuff, I love it!

BTW, Dave now works as a boxing commentator for RTE. He was a truly great, much underrated fighter who deserved much better treatment and recognition!

CP: " is that how we are spelling .....these days" >>>>>>>>>> PATHETIC, but typical response from the resident bigot who seems to have given up trying to hide it anymore!

ALEX: Yeah, Dave does still own the pub. The RTE commentating is just a part time thing.

Your lack of self awareness is either deliberately hilarious or worryingly loopy!

Jokingly calling some a c**t = bigot.
Banging on about NRC's, Scots extraction etc, etc on a football article = well adjusted member of society.

Apparently. Lol *





*apologies to Megan for stealing his line.

CP: You appear even more distasteful when you start wriggling. How do you "jokingly" call anyone a "c--t"?

What about this: "Im surprised CP is confused about the spelling of c--t, so much so that he asks Alex's help. I would have thought CP would be well aware of the spelling of c--t, being one HIMSELF!" Not very funny really, is it?

"Not "banging on" about anything, just attempting to state a few minor truths in a semi humorous fashion. Of course as usual you tend to vomit when asked to digest the "TRUTH" however minor, and as for "HUMOUR", well its a bit beyond you, isnt it!

Er, by jokingly calling someone a c—t perhaps? Alex for example seemed to get the joke. However, if you’re offended Shen then I withdraw what I considered a harmless ‘joke’ at the expense of a returning ‘internet foe’ and offer my apologies.

Such is your penchant for taking things literally I was tempted to try and make a smart comment about you having a touch of Aspergers but since I don’t want to offend you I’ll simply say I disagree, I thought it was quite an amusing retort. I don’t really take joking insults on the world wide web too personally though.

A ‘few minor truths’? A ’joke with a jag’ perhaps? Doesn’t change the fact that you’re claiming a man who obviously views himself as an Irish Nationalist should be playing for Scotland merely because he probably has some Scottish ancestors that he may, or may not, give a fiddlers f about!

CP:
Dont think ALEX did see it as funny. He was probably just trying to be diplomatic. Dont think any reasonable people find it funny to be referred to directly or indirectly on the internet or anywhere else as a "c--t". Why dont you go down the city centre and try it on a few people and see how heartily they laugh! I suggest picking a few who can handle themselves!

"I thought it was quite an amusing retort" >>>>>>>>>>> Well I guess thats about as amusing as you can get. Im afraid set piece, unsophisticated humour featuring crude words and laid on with a heavy hand, does not really do it for me! Better keep the day job, if you've got one!

"such is your penchant for taking things literally......." >>>>>>>>>> such is your penchant for wriggling!

"you're claiming a man .............playing for Scotland" >>>>>>>>>> Poor baby, you actually think I was being serious! Its easy to see whos the one here who takes things literally!
