Behind The Scenes - Paulo #Dybala has turned down Boca Juniors, MLS and Saudi Clubs to stay at #ASRoma, where he will earn less. A SerieA’s Club had made an attempt for Joya, who just wanted to continue his story with Roma. #transfers

@Not_Justin_Case Lol thanks for proving my point

[Tommy Murphy @tmurf22]

Sex pests are now trying to dictate who is and isnt, 'our own'!

[John McGuirk @john_mcguirk]

Would Aer Lingus get the same reaction if they flew all of Declan Rice's cousins out to the states to watch him play DR Congo this evening? I doubt it. And he's got a better claim to be "one of our own" (though he's still not).

[Tommy Murphy @tmurf22]

@Not_Justin_Case Haha. Still a friendless, racist, predator defending little prick Justin?

You could try saying it to my face but seeing as a keyboard is your only friend, I doubt you spend much time away from it!

Anti-Irish bigot Douglas Murray

Who tries, poorly, to infer Ireland was pro-Axis in WW2.
Suggesting a policy of neutrality identical to America, Belgium, and many others, was unusual or untoward?

The reality? It’s a common misconception of the 20th century that remains among those who stopped reading history

MI5, in their declassified Ireland file, released 1999, says “Ireland was of more use neutral”

Acting head of Americas Office of Secret Services in Europe in WW2, said:
“The Irish cooperated as if they were Allies - they have never received the credit due to them”

The facts show Ireland worked with the Allies by:

- Contacting British intelligence in 1938.
- Arranging secret joint defence plans with Britain to counter a German invasion
- running a nationwide coast watch which reported German shipping & air movements to Britain
- Giving Air & sea access to Irish territory denied to Germany
- Routing of German & Italian communications to Ireland through London for spying purposes
- Full unrestricted access to all mail to & from Ireland for censorship purposes
- Full unrestricted access & cooperation with MI5
- Use of Irish airports for British military aircraft - 48k mostly military & refuges through Foynes
- Codebreaking Axis embassies wireless sets & sharing info
- Reducing Irish broadcast efficiency so German bombers couldn’t use it for guidance
- Returning downed or sunk Allied aircrew & sailors while interning German
- Facilitation of huge Irish enlistment in the UK armed forces & war labour

210k Irish went to UK Armed Forces or factories - 9% of the population, and all Irish savings & investment to UK

No Irish went to Hitlers forces - not one. The Irish government gave nothing to Germany, being one of the few neutrals to criticise German actions

Don’t get your history from uneducated bigots like Douglas

[Tommy Murphy @tmurf22]

A disingenuous bigot of the highest order.

[Economicopoly @Economicopoly]

He is one of the most irritating charlatans ever. Citing transparently inaccurate nonsense about the "Hitler loving" Irish with his comically contrived accent. He apparently got into Eton for a year and appears to spend his life compensating for the fact he is not authentic to that world by caricaturing the worst delusional superiority arrogance & personal social repugnancy associated with it.

In 2026, Pico,the Dubliner,chose to play for Cape Verde, proudly honouring his roots. Meanwhile, 2026 for John McGuirk ,he walked away from another job amid sexual harassment and financial leak allegations. I definitely know which one makes me proud to be one of our own ! 💯🇮🇪

[Tommy Murphy @tmurf22]

@Not_Justin_Case 0 followers now Dave, almost like people are allergic to your shite talking

[Tommy Murphy @tmurf22]

@Brunosammy18 And I smell a lot of gobshites in my comments

[Tommy Murphy @tmurf22]

@thecraichead I know, its fucking depressing.

[Tommy Murphy @tmurf22]

@Leonlight97 @alieltumi @KarlSeale Its not really hypocritical tho is it? Ireland and England, as you agreed with a previous comment have a far more complicated history than Ireland and Cape Verde, a nation who at this world cup have over half the team born outside of the nation.

@lazlopuskas I wasn't the one who started it Aodh, that would be his former colleagues at Gript

@WeeTam15 Youre entire online personality is a cry for help.

[Tommy Murphy @tmurf22]

@Claudio52752289 @MaxMolloy86 @john_mcguirk Lot of uninformed idiots in these comments unfortunately.

[Tommy Murphy @tmurf22]

@max_c_j He doesnt have a point, comparing him to Declan Rice and claiming Rice is more Irish than Pico absolutely goes to show that! Also what has Brits claiming Katie or Cillian Murphy got to do with this?

[Tommy Murphy @tmurf22]

@chumponabike And you're some yank who spends his time impersonating a random cyclist for some reason you creepy gobshite😂

[Tommy Murphy @tmurf22]

@RedDeadRed1895 @huggies4you Lot of them in the comments it seems, almost as if the people who claim to want to keep Ireland safe don't really feel that way.😂
