Last night in Cork there was a vast under supply of Taxies, the city was 'Hopping' from mid-afternoon to bring in the 'Rugger Buggers' fer the Pro 14 final and the Soccer heads fer the Champions league final and also the GAA fans fer the AISF clash with Tipp, and with it being such a lovely Sunny day, many were in the city center just to quench their thirst.
By 11pm there was hardly a Taxi to be got and then the rain came down 'In Fookin Buckets' (With Thunder and Lightening) no Taxies anywhere at all and that all continued till 5am this morning when what was left of the fleet finally managed to hoover up most of the Skunks off the ground.
Usually when I use a Link road going back in to the city by night, it's a battle to hold your Taxi position amongst the half dozen other drivers, but last night I was often the only cab heading back in to the city/'Jungle' on my own.
I'm guessing that most of the night time fleet are/were Liverpool supporters who took the night off !
-
Same in Dublin.Major shortage of Taxi's.I only had to work for 3 hours instead of my usual 5 to get my target.
-
Ramadan and the Yes supporters out celebrating.There seemed to be a good few gay lads wearing costumes heading for Dublin Castle yesterday.Legged it early meself.
-
Have to say lads,it sounds like yis are complaibing about the shortage.take it and be delighted

Same here the driver..... Spared meself all the shite talk about football an who shud of done this and who shud of done that an which manager shud be sacked, and who's better, Ronaldo or Messi, and who's gay, an who loves the birds,....
Its a stupit tit game
-
Watched the soccer on TV myself, not often I watch soccer but it started just after the cricket finished. As I was watching soccer it seemed appropriate to pour some tins of lager down my neck so that ruled out work for the night. Watched that Evil Genius on Netflix after the game, as recommended by someone on here. Not great, IMO, could have been edited to two episodes.

Every cunt wanted to talk about soccerball or abortion last night, I told two pricks I'd rather watch an abortion than talk about soccerball.... Fuck off and go asleep yis annoying ball watching bastards.

I wanted liverpool to loose.the reason is ,I hope all the Irish fukkers who spend hundreds every week going over to support the Brits are sick as parrots.these same fukkers would not spend 15 euro to support their local domostic league of Ireland club.soccer supporters my bollox,they should hang their heads in shame for supporting the Brits,instead of their own

I'm not complaining at all DM, but there were a lot of punters on the streets waiting on Saturday night,
and the vast majority were not dressed fer the rain (torrential with thunder and lightning) which started at 11pm.
I had a great night, but still I don't like to see our customers let down so badly, in such bad weather conditions.

The Irish are a funny lot, ya see em on the street by night singing 'Ra' songs and wearing Premier league jerseys ??
I myself having being born within a stones throw from Stamford bridge, don't support any English team.
And I probably watch more Irish football than most, as me small fella (16) plays Striker fer his school and Left-Mid fer his club,
I seldom miss any of his games.

Bring him to turners cross to see John Caulfield for a trial for cork city Belker

Bring him to turners cross to see John Caulfield for a trial for cork city Belker
He has been there already, he played Left-Mid (injured) fer Rochestown college
who won the Cork schoolboys First year cup.
-
Who'd watch a bunch of Millionaires pissing around only to be treated to a nil all bore?
P.s. who won?
-
Real Madrid. Gareth Bale scored a brace before using the post match interview to invite offers from a UK club. Maybe he'd consider Bohs?
-
It wasn't so much Real that won, but instead it was the Liverpool goalie that lost.
I watched the highlights on Sunday morning, it was painful to watch !
-
Fuck off with the soccer ball foreign shite. Get the Gaelic Football and Hurling into yiz, along with the ould Handball, oh and don’t forget that cricket once came under the umbrella of the GAA. Irish heritage and culture there for ya.
-
Yiz only Sing when yere winning Vikkiz, I well remember the time the Doob hurlers thought they had the All-Ireland in the bag.
Then they met Cork in Croker in 2013 fer the Semi-final, many Doobs didn't know what the initials JBM meant at the time.
They sure knew what they meant on leaving the stadium !
-
How did je get on with city ? Caulfield is a good manager,who likes to give youth a chance

Dooblin don't really have a Hurling team, they thought they had back in 2013,
and they thought the All Ireland would be a 'Gimme', but then Cork taught them
a harsh lesson on their own home field !
-
Dubliners are not great with solving problems with sticks...now if you were to consider the Glock 17, well that's a whole other matter. 8)
-
He sure did ya bastards. It was nice to hope that our hurlers could be as strong as our footballers. I'd prefer that but the lads prefer playing the football

i want to see Dublin loose every time they play. my logic is, if they keep loosing the Dublin sporting public might get pissed off, and start supporting the soccer league of Ireland. also it would be a kick in the bollox for the Grab All Assocation who continue to get millions from the government while my beloved L O I get fukk all from them. considering all the money the GAA have, its like bringing an apple in to an orchird
-
2013 was a great year fer Cork Hurling, we beat Kilkenny and we beat the Doobs,
granted we lost the final to Clare, but no one gave a Fook, beating the Cats and the Doobs was the highlight !

Well that's just eroding away at the Irish Culture and heritage, one of the things you were giving out about in the "it's a yes from me" posts

Your right . In feircly nationalisc,and proud Irishman.but I wont support an orginisation that is really a political orginisation,and mascarades as a sporting irginisatiob.maybe my hatred of them stems from all the times I was half killed by the christian brothers,if I was caught pkaying soccer,instead of GAA in the school yard
-
Nice of you to admit it. They done the same to me but when the brothers weren't out in the yard we would play the soccer ball

And there is in soccerball. The target is just smaller in soccerball

You cant handle the ball in soccer,but in Gaa anything goes they are like a load of pansies playing catch as they throw in to each orher there is more skill in my flute

Dalymount, Dublin didn't win Sam from 1995 to 2011 and they didn't flock back to Irish soccer then so why would they now? And to put the record straight for all ignorant rednecks....Croke Park is GAA headquarters....Parnell Park is home to Dublin's hurling and football teams. The reason I support the Dubs is because they are the anti-culchie/christian bros team and they stick it to the cute hoors every time they win. In 1995, Ballymun Kickhams had no underage teams and no mentors and the GAA was in dire straits in Dublin.
We don't do hurling but Gilroy might get them into shape at some stage. Wexford or Galway this yr for Liam.
And Shane Supple was the second choice Dubs goalie who is now plying his trade in the League of Ireland....its not all bad Dalymount.

A while back you suggested that teaching of Irish should be compulsory in schools to preserve our heritage. As your soccer/GAA scenario proves, forcing an activity/subject upon unwilling participants only serves to strengthen their hatred of the same.
-
Every match outside The Hogan Stand boozer I explain myself away to some thick belligerent culchie...Dubs have the lowest participation rate of all counties in Gaelic sports. Cork has less than 1/3 the pop and twice the number of senior football teams. Boxing and Soccer are the 2 mainstays of Dublin sports with MMA creeping up behind. If the Dubs were GAA minded they'd win every hurling and football comp every yr.
-
I'm no GAA expert but the culchies in my motor often complain that Dublin players are paid a lot more than in other counties.

They all received new Subarus as part of a sponsorship deal recently.

I walked out of the Gaeity during his show for the exact same reason.
Pints in the Clarendon Inn were far more appealing.

It's gas alri.....back when O Carroll was playing the pub circuit ye wouldn't see any of those stuck up cunts from the audience in the Olympia or the Tivoli there....that would be too working class and too crude....i liked when Gerry Browne and the band were part of the show.
-
No.
-
Ya can only say 'Fook' and 'Kount' so many times on stage and get away with it.
Eddie Murphy got away with it in 'Raw' which to be fair was good at the time,
but then he tried the exact same shite in Raw 2, it's funny the First time,
but the Second time around it kinda lost it's appeal.

Billy Connolly uses curse words quite well. The only comedian,I think, that can get away with it

Yer man Brendan I Carroll gets a lot of stick but I reckon everyone knows a Mrs Brown somewhere.Being able to predict the punchline is what makes it so successful and him so wealthy.
-
I don't particularly like him. Like Brush Shiels and Doc Savage he just repeats the same old juvenile schoolyard jokes. Ifn ya went to school up above in Dublin there's nothing in their acts that you haven't heard several million times before.

Jesus H ! It was Fookin' Bat-Shit in Cork last night, granted it did Piss Rain all night but every rank in the city was empty from 10.30pm till about 4am in the morning with again the fleet decimated with the loss of all the Liverpool supporting drivers.
I fairly 'Filled my Boots' on an 8pm to 6am and would have filled them even further if'n de Kounts hadn't closed off all the roads fer de poxy marathon at 6am.

I didn't bother working myself, couldn't be arsed with it anymore on a Saturday.

There was a decent wedge to be made that night if'n ya worked it properly.
I worked the streets mostly picking up what I considered as 'Fit to travel'
and worked the Burbs on the App after dropping off ignoring City jobs and
council estates and anything at all on the Northside.
I didn't 'Ring de Bell' twice cos de Kounts closed off the streets at 6am fer
the marathon, but I wasn't far off it on a 10 hour shift.

Pipe and Slippers Anto .I have my daughter and her family moving back home she was renting 980 a month landlord is selling agent wants 1460 a month for the exact same appartment in another block .What chance have kids or grandkids got if their rent is that high .So it looks like Granda will be on baby sitting and school runs .Think we are going to go like the Italians where multiple generations live in the family home .This job is not great for life balance you need to work weekends just to make pay .

I hope you’ll be charging them rent, but what ya do is actually save that money they give you and it then can go towards a deposit for them when they go for a house. Or when they go to buy you outta the gaf lol

IF I had a grandson then I too would happily have spent the day looking after him but I don't (as of yet !).
I did 'Warn off' me small fella last Saturday night fer the first time ever, most weekends we meet up a few times fer lifts or what ever and I'm delighted with the oppurtunity to meet him BUT NOT ON A LIVERPOOL CHAMPIONS LEAGUE FINAL NIGHT !
But I did make it up to him on the Sunday night at midnight when I answered his text; "Daaaaaaaaaad...... any chance you pick me up chips, cheese and garlic from Abra ?, no worries if you cant ......". So I got him Two helpings to make up fer Warning him off the night before.

I'm not a soccer fan but I watched the game in a pub in the midlands (Ireland that is) and there was tremendous excitement all around me. The winning side were certainly the most popular among supporters in that establishment and, I suspect, across the country. I kinda knew Liverpool would win way back when the erm said he'd sell a betting docket in their favour for 2 old pence. I understand you not wanting to be disturbed during the game and being in no fit condition to be disturbed after it, Ken and I'm sure your young lad would allow you that one!

He’d sell anything for 2 old pence ffs

.......... I understand you not wanting to be disturbed during the game and being in no fit condition to be disturbed after it, Ken and I'm sure your young lad would allow you that one!
I wasn't watching the game or gargling, I was out grafting, I knew from last year that it would be the greatest night ever fer Taxi drivers !
My small fella and me Chungwan I look after reguarly and I have no problem in doing so, I'm usually well pleased with their company BUT ON A LIVERPOOL CHAMPIONS LEAGUE FINAL NIGHT they were both 'Warned Off' with a 'DO NOT DISTURB' message well in advance.
