Brianie, Oct 25th

"The FAI have with their selective process re tickets have shot themselves in the foot, The Real and Genuine Fans have been told to feck off for this one because Abbey came calling, Only 1 Fan got a Ticket FROM HERE, Cannot believe it, So a concerted effort with some intelligence and savvy needs to teach these fookers that "the best fans in the world" cannot be treated like this, So Any Ideas and keep it smart and Practical, Have never been more disgusted with the Fookers in my life My First Suggestion and i am aware that i go to see the team, but to attend the USA Game and then walk out after the Anthems, meaningless friendly anyway and message would be got. My feelings towards the FAI  so Disgusting tonight"

I know for one by looking at some comments on here, some posters who may have been looked after are too happy to go along with the FAI at the minute. No. Honest, fair, open discussion, without abuse, is what is called for. I have no difficulty with anyone disagreeing with me and neither do most rational posters. If posters resort to name calling, foul language and offensive remarks, it is not reason for them or anyone else to leave the website once it is not enough for them to be banned and once it is not in breach of forum rules. It says worse of them than anyone else if they resort to such tactics. Constructive criticism, conversation and consultation. That's the strength of this site. Turning it into a club for yes men and quelling dissent without allowing discussion is not something that should be promoted. That would be no better than those who won't listen to criticism and operate without accountability. I'm not pointing fingers at anyone here, just making general observations, before anyone jumps down my throat. Many bridges have been burned at this stage. Views on both sides are extremely varied and strong, I personally think it would be for the best if a split happened. Why should so many fans who have been discontent for a number of years, keep putting up with the same crap? I'd be in favour of a breakaway group forming, clean slate and everyone's opinion mattered.

I disagree entirely.

There is disagreement over FAI corporate governance issues.

That's it, effectively.

That is no reason to exclude anyone from discussion on the team on the pitch, the management team, the squad selection process, tips on places to stay, tips on flight prices, tips on travel to and from the ground, the sharing of spare tickets, tips on places to go drinking, discussion on the rest of the world forum, discussion on the LOI forum and discussion on the whatever forum.

A split? Give me a break.

I'm hardly talking about posting on an internet forum as forming a split

I'm talking about on match days and decisions being made in regard to real life, if people are unhappy dealing with said people then there should be a split if something cannot be resolved soon.
