Jesus H Christ. Didn't see that coming at all. Brutal.

CCV out and Trusty in apparently.  Hopeful of a score draw.  Need to stay away from stupid red cards and letting in an early goal.  Don't think Dortmund are going too well but still a big step up for Celtic.

There's a fascinating discussion on the Ulster Club IFC and JFC 2024 regarding Armagh's approach to second teams playing in the senior league. In light of the state of reserve football in the county, Is it worthwhile to revisit this?

It's not fascinating at all. Reserve football is for young fellas coming through, fellas on the fringe of seniors trying to get there and a few veterans playing out their days. If clubs don't have the numbers then they can't field. Simple. Reserve teams are there to support and help the senior team and that's all.

Playing some stuff at the moment. Long may it continue! Engels and Bernardo are flying. Dortmund will be a good barometer of what level Celtic are actually at.

Looks like it's at group stages.

Very good transfer window in my opinion. Bring on Sunday! In Brendy I trust! 

Tony Kelly. That goal. Great game.

Bid for Idah turned down by Norwich.

If Alliance had of put up someone of substance in Strangford they were in with a shout of unseating that moron Jim Shannon due to the boundary changes.

I might still have to vote for her whoever she is just in the hope that she does do it.

FPTP is feckin depressing when you're surrounded by band loving, bone fire building retrobates.

If Labour do get this big majority I really hope they do bring in PR to really f**k the Tories over once and for all.

What a shitshow of a constituency.  Was hard to look past a hurling legend this morning in order to vote tactically!  What did we do to deserve being thrown in with you lot JC?? 

Goalkeeper
Left Back
Centre Back
2 good mid-fielders (assuming O'Reilly is sold) should we sign Barnardo permanently?. I think we should he's only 21
2 good wingers
1 Striker (I'd look to sign Idah but send Oh out on loan and buy another striker)

Far more concerned about the lack of movement on the transfer front than steel girders for Ibrox lost at sea!  No movement at all on illdecide's list above that I totally agree with.

Goalkeeper situation should have been sorted months ago.  I understand it must be difficult to sell the Scottish league to top players but the current Board's transfer record fills me with dread!

JC, this is first election we have to vote in the Strangford constituency.  The nationalist choice isn't great compared to our previous constituency of South Down.  I feel a bit dis-enfranchised!   

Got a great deal recently with Hastings for my 19 year old daughter who has been driving for two years.  Her own policy (with telematics) for her own wee runaround.  The price was a couple of thousand pound less than any other quotes.  I still can't believe how cheap it was in comparison to others (about £850 was the price).  Keep thinking we missed something in the small print!!  Her previous insurers flat out refused to quote this year.

Hopefully full strength team out tonight and get at least a point.  Don't fancy a last day nail biter!  Kilmarnock are owed one for this season.

Shiteing it!  If Celtic play to their potential they will win but these games take on a life of their own.

To think the Kilcoo boys thought they were too good for the Down team. Johnston just fell over at the end there.

Armagh were awful but Down are a dreadful outfit. Would have been a travesty to see them in the AI series.

Some speak from an Antrim man.
