A bigger than average lad playing in goals drops a high ball into the goals, an aul lad on the sideline quips: "If it was a rasher you'd catch it...or a pound of sausages!"

Didn't Camross have a big semi blind full forward knick named "Pull", when he heard the magic word he did what it said on the tin.
Slightly off topic, but in a West Waterford junior semi final fado fado, the team in question had over 20 togged, but there wasn't much on the bench so to speak..
At half time they were down a few points and the rallying speech finished (in the company of full panel) "for fcuks sake lads we have to do it ourselves, lets face it there's fcuk all on the sideline...."

Our club has an intermediate team and Junior B team.
The intermediates went out of Championship early and the Junior B manager had his sights firmly set on the top job for the follwing year!
Now never in a million years was he ever gonna be considered but that didn't stop his ambition!
Anyway Junior B's in a league semi final at end of year and a few points down at half time.
The end of his inspirational half time team talk was "Lads, ye have to up yer f**ken game, if we can't bate this crowd I haven't a hope of getting the big job and then i'll be stuck back managing ye useless c**ts next year"

i'm in an office in London where nobody's probably heard of the game laughing hard at that one about 'Pull'. I can't be bothered explaining it to them. its just they wouldnt be able to appreciate the picture I would paint.

We played a junior B game years ago. One old timer who was playing reckoned the only way to win was to start a few fights & upset the oposition. We weren't wining the fights or the match either. So at half time the player manger said
"for f**k sake "Martin stop hitting fellows you going to get us all f**king killed"

Another beauty from the ref to a player while refeering a south Tipp junior football game. One of the clubs would have hurling as there number 1 game and would be known to be hardy crew. Have a good few from one extended family playing on team at time.
Anyhow friend of mind playing for other team gets lamped off the ball(by one of extended family but in clear sight of ref. My friend would be very tough but knew he was well outnumbered, looks to ref for action,
Ref says " you had it coming Anthony"

I heard of one in Wexford a good few years ago and St. Martins were playing Oulart the Ballagh in a football league game. The O'Connors were playing on one side against Martin Storey - in football. Anyway, at one point in the game an Oulart player runs over towards the dugout with his ripped right boot in hand. He throws it towards the mentors expecting a replacement. When it’s obvious none is forthcoming he roars at them: 'well yis carry spare hurls don't ya?'
Another, at a junior football match in offaly this young lad came on corner forward in his first game and was marking your archetypical junior corner back, except this lad had white hair and a white beard. The young lad, a legend in his own mind, got a couple of scores off him, and after each one said 'Thanks for the present Santy'. Then they got a 45, and the ball dropped shot in the square, the young lad jumped to try and punch the ball into the net when the corner back 'accidentally' hit him a ferocious box in the nose as the ball sailed over both their heads and wide. The youn lad was sitting on his arse looking up at him in disbelief, when ‘Santy’ said “Ho f**king ho. Happy Christmas.”
Finally, when Galway minors played Kilkenny in the All Ire semi final in '88. The cats (Carey, Ronan, O'Neill, Carter, etc) were walking it. Either Ronan or Carey went down injured in the second half and the Kilkenny doc attending to him on the field for a prolonged period. As the time went on a disgruntled Galwayman shouts out: "If ye don't hurry up he'll be over age!"

Brilliant kelticwave-I've a similar one to that. One poor young lad we played with U12-lets call him John. John wasn't very good at hurling but always came to training and togged out on the sideline but was never giving anything but a sympathy minute or 2 at the end of a meaningless game. Our manager, an unmerciful pr1ck, used to encourage him by roaring at one of us if we fcuked up by saying "Fcuk's sake you wouldn't see John do that" or "Keep that up now face and I'll be bringing John on for you". The poor young fella.

The ball is thrown in between two adjoining parishes who absolutely detest each other. There is an immediate melee after which a player is lying on the ground injured.
The home team Bainisteor asks the local hackney man to bring him to A&E. The hackney man is about to leave for the hospital when he turns to the Bainisteor and says, "will I go straightaway or will I wait till I have a load?"

From a frustrated supporter at a club game shouting about a player who was having a shocker:
"Take him off and bring on no-one"

Here’s a few more, which are still knocking around from the old Gaelic Gazette Website. I think they had asked people to submit stuff they had heard at GAA games. These are some that came back:
My brother took an English relation to a club game of ours many years ago. During the course of the game, when things weren't going too well for one of our corner backs, a woman in the crowd was shouting: "Take that useless c**t off, he's good for nothing".
Needless to say, the English relation was horrified at such a remark and tried to reason with the lady saying: "There's no need for that language, I'm sure you wouldn't like someone saying those things about your son," to which she replied: "sure, the useless c**t is my son!"
________________________________________
I was at an Armagh match in the early 90s with a neighbour of mine who's loud by nature but is particularly vocal at matches (a bit rough around the edges you might say).
Anyway, he took particular umbredge at one particular Armagh player who wasn't having a great game. At one stage he shouts out the name of the player and roars:
"if they won't take you off, for f**ks sake, walk off!"
________________________________________
Didn't hear this one myself, but the great Willie Joe Padden told me it at last years Mayo v Galway match from an ould fella behind him. Just after Conor Mortimer missed the change with the free, he stood up screaming: "Jesus, if Lee Harvey Oswald had been from Mayo, JFK'd be alive and kicking!"
________________________________________
A barrell of a man who was very much involved in Laois GAA was at a junior football match in Abbeyleix one night, and he went on just to make up numbers (jersey pulled on, playing with the socks around the trousers and someone else's boots).
Anyway, he was running around but the low stature was telling and one of the lads shouted at him: "For f**ks sake Sabu (his nick name), will you go up for the ball to which he replied: "sure I'm not a f**king eejit,
won't it come down to me!"
________________________________________
At a reserve game in Co. Derry, one team who had only the bare fifteen
trotted off at the break getting pretty badly beaten. Johnny at full
forward was having a nightmare.... here is part of the half time talk:
Manager: "Johnny, you're coming off."
Johnny: "but we only have the bare 15."
[short pause]
Manager: "come off anyway."
________________________________________
At a minor league game a couple of years ago, our manager was giving
the usual f**king and blindin' to us when a spectator said to him over the fence:
"Don't be so ignorant....(short pause).... ye big fat f**ker ye."
________________________________________
Nice Tipperary one. Workmates console Eddie Tucker after Tipp are
demolished by Clare and he's had a bad day: "don't worry about it
Eddie, it wasn't your fault, it's the fecin eejits that picked ya."
________________________________________
I've been told involves the Ballygar-St. Brendan'shurling club in Galway where a major dispute reared it's head at the AGM.
The chairman is reportedly a straight-talking bachelor of questionalbe diplomacy. Amidst the row, a newly appointed priest took the floor commenting on how the GAA should be a focal point for the 2 parishes, not a source of argument. He continued on about how everyone should pull together for the good of the club and see the club as a unifying force. The chairman stood up and said: "Thanks a lot for that now Father, but that's the kind of s**te that sickens my hole."

Have to be a little careful here, from a county board meeting in Waterford years ago, where a game between two clubs had to be called off, owing to off the field activities between player from Club A, with fiance of player from Club B.
Delegate from Club B ( who wasn't happy with posponment) gets to he's feet and delivers the following classic " if ye kept yere studs locked up above in (village name goes here) there would be no need to call off any game...
