A county like no other. To read the typical opinions of a Munster rugby fan, head here.
1. Why aren't people saying split Kilkenny?
Why, indeed?
2. Sure, we'd love a road trip
Always very anxious to stress that they'd love nothing more than another trip down to Longford. Assuming Pearse Park is ever in a fit state for use again.
The more conscientious and dedicated of the Dubs supporters are quick to point out that it's not their fault they play so many games at home.
3. Aidan O'Shea actually pulled his head into his head
We won't go into what McEnaney said. Suffice to say, in reporting the contents of a conversation with a spectator on Philly's alleged headbutt, he managed to annoy some humourless councillor in Dublin Fingal.
4. We've only won five All-Irelands in thirty-five years
Usually follows hot on the heels of Opinion No.1.
In most counties (or in most counties that can do so at any rate) they boast about how many All-Irelands they've won. In Dublin, fans have been forced to defend themselves against charges of excessive superiority by stressing how few they've won.
5. Sure, every footballer in the country wants to play in Croke Park
The opposite of Opinion No.2. This brigade tend to come over all hard-headed and pragmatic, pointing to commercial realities and the worth of Croke Park to the association (as Christy Cooney used to call it).
6. There's people getting tickets who haven't been to a game all year
Dublin, with its enormous casual fanbase and its presence in the biggest games every year, is the home of this complaint.
On the eve of the All-Ireland final, a veteran attendee of O'Bynre Cup games will release a viral video lamenting that he will have to make do with the armchair and Ger Canning because his seat was taken by a solicitor from Malahide.
7. Bitter f*****g culchies
How come Kerry's past dominance never provoked the kind of 'state-of-the-game' handwringing that the Dubs have to put up with?
Culchie bias is everywhere. The Sunday Game, for instance, notwithstanding the presence of Ciaran Whelan and Des Cahill on the panel, is a notorious hotbed of culchie anti-Dublin bias.
As is the rest of Ireland that isn't Dublin.
8. Sure, Parnell Park is our home ground
A tenacious minority still cleave to this legalistic but unsound argument. It has the odd virtue of being both technically true and utterly ludicrous.
In mitigation, it should be acknowledged that most Dub fans who argue this point do so with a hint of mischief.
This argument became rather untenable - to most reasonable people at least - when the Dublin footballers began playing their home League games in Croke Park.
