[edit] Clean up

I attempted to clean up ths article as it was in a woeful state. I possibly have not done a great job. If anyone has any worthy sources to beef up this article especially for his footballing career feel free to let me know or list them here.

The truth is out there ha ha are you kidding me eamonn dunphy is not from limerick your having a laugh. definately a dublin man wrote this haha

Dunphy spells his name with one 'N', not two. The headline is incorrect. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.198.173.18 (talk) 22:20, 15 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Dunphy played 23 times for the Republic of Ireland and remains Millwall's most capped international player.

This is wrong - Tim Cahill has equalled this "record" and Kevin Muscat has many more to name just two.

That's news to me. Please cite how many games Cahill & Muscat played for Australia whilst at Millwall. Thanks, Lion King 11:04, 9 June 2007 (UTC)Btw, wer'e talking full International Caps here.

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:RTÉ Sport 034.jpg

Nuvola apps important.svg

Image:RTÉ Sport 034.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

[edit] Eamonn?

The title of this is not correct. His name is "Eamon" NOT "Eamonn"[1] Thank you, 'Arry Boy (talk) 00:12, 16 February 2008 (UTC)

Will some one who knows how to alter this article please do so. Dunphy does not spell his name with two N's. Thank you. 'Arry Boy (talk) 19:34, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] doesn't make sense

"and views their opponents, such as former Progressive Democrats leader, Michael McDowell". This line doesn't make sense as it does not give what dunphy's views are?! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Cliste (talkcontribs) 18:49, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Anti-United FOOL editing this page

Could the guy who is Anti-Manchester United stop editing this page. He is at again after Dunphy's disgraceful outburst Wednesday night.

He also said on Dunphy's comment calling Rio Ferdinand a "tramp" - after "Rio Ferdinand once again played woefully after United were dumped by AC Milan in 2007". Update - Rio Ferdinand didn't play EITHER leg against Milan. —Preceding unsigned comment added by FearSneachta (talkcontribs) 12:55, 25 April 2008 (UTC)

I have removed some of the stuff you mentioned. This article really needs to be cleaned up. (Namzie11 (talk) 05:38, 5 May 2008 (UTC))
Also, does this article really need every single comment Dunphy makes on tv programmes added? It's turning into a tabloid newspaper. Cheers, 'Arry Boy (talk) 15:22, 23 May 2008 (UTC)


Please also remove this stuff, I tried to and it was regarded as vandalism. Is this a page about Eamonn Dunphy or a place for people to rip into everybody who plays for Manchester United.

""Before and after the game between Manchester United and Barcelona at the Nou Camp, Dunphy was heard deriding Ronaldo for his antics, blaming teammates, whining to the referees, and diving for foul calls. During the match Ronaldo missed a penalty and Dunphy felt that Ronaldo dived a few times in the match. This lead Dunphy to single out only Ronaldo and term him a "cod", John Giles and Liam Brady both agreeing with him that Ronaldo is "unprofessional", "disgraceful" and flawed"." If you are going to put this in the least you could do is add. TV Replays have shown that Ronaldo was denied two more clear penalties and he was continually targeted by Barcelona defenders while leading the front line alone. Rafael Marquez ended up getting booked. Ronaldo was involved in the build up to the winning goal of this tie and scored in the tournament final. He was top scorer in both League and Champions League. Then perhaps that would give both sides of the argument rather than some editor using this as a front to launch an attack on Ronaldo. FearSneachta (talk) 16:03, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] What content of his book 'Unforgettable Fire' were U2 unhappy about?

I just feel that this needs clarification. 12:12, 9 January 2009 (UTC))

The title obviously. 12:12, 19 January 2009 (UTC))
These might help:

[edit] Controversy Section

Has no mention of his multiple driving bans 12:53, 16 December 2009 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.40.208.160 (talk)

He has a 10 year driving ban for being under the influence of alcohol, along with other driving related convictions. Also admitted in an interview that he is a marijuana and cocaine user, which caused huge controversy. These should both be included in the Controversy section. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.46.221.226 (talk) 21:33, 17 June 2010 (UTC)

Dunphy's rampant Anglophobiia might be mentioned, too. It would appear that when he is constantly criticising England and its footballers, he is labouring under the delusion that no one in the UK can see. Sources are numerous on You Tube alone, with his own voice providing the best witness. Guv2006 (talk) 22:17, 23 June 2010 (UTC)

One of Eamon Dunphy's numerous run-ins with the law. http://www.breakingnews.ie/archives/2004/1028/ireland/kfqlmhmhauey/ Which begs the question, why was my mentioning of this removed? Does Dunphy's profile only deal in positives? Guv2006 (talk) 11:26, 27 June 2010 (UTC)
