McTeeko Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 (edited) Used her buses a couple of times (Rome to Bari and the Slovenia friendly in Koper), also had her sourcing out an Italian family holiday for me a couple of years ago (didnae book though, went to Montenegro instead). Turns out her real name was Geraldine ? She was nice enough when using her services but came across as a bit of a bawbag around the two recent Ireland games.

I don't she was too bothered by what folk were saying, thankfully. Unfortunately whenever Ireland is mentioned it does crazy things to some denizens of this board.

Fairbairn Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 I never met Helen Donegan and only know of her from her posts on here however after opening that article she looks exactly how I'd have expected her to look! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FuNsTeR Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 i had a run in with her on here she brought religion into a thread and had the cheek to criticise Scottish culture at the same time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thplinth Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 The date on that article is very recent. Is this for real? I think it might be so I'll say the treatment of Helen on here was the first time I did a double take at some of the posts on here. It was within the last 18 months I think she we last on here getting pelters from a predictably blue green divide gang. I could never understand the ugly hostility, never will.

Boynze Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 Shame that she's deid and that she had some hardships in her life, but she was a pain in the arse on here most of the time, generally at it a fair bit. hope she is at peace now.

Unfortunately whenever Ireland is mentioned it does crazy things to some denizens of this board. Strongly disagree that her nationality was the chief cause of the reaction she got on here. She was an inflammatory poster who had the capacity to get herself suspended from Irish fans' message boards, or at the very least multiple threads locked. Other Irish posters on here repeatedly called on her to wind her neck in when she frequently over stepped the mark. Helen had a lots of energy, never lost her sense of humour and had a clear affinity with Scotland and football. One of the TAMB's very colurful characters.

I wasn't speaking about her nationality, i was speaking of some denizens of the board and their thoughts on it. Apologies i never made that clear.

It was a great trip that. Couldnt really blame her for the bus breaking down, and it was a great laugh that all ended well. IIRC she came on our bus before we set off back to Rome to apologise and thank us? That's a shame she died relatively young. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
