Aye that was really annoying.  The goal was all about darren o sullivan.  If it had of been the other way round and cooper made the run and passed it to Darren, they would be ridin cooper saying he handed the goal on a plate to O sullivan.  One of the best forwards I have seen but the the OTT praise for him doing the run of the mill stuff is bonkers.

He could run for president?
It could be between the shot stopper and the sharpshooter!

Did Mayobridge not win a senior championship a good few years back,  in their first year promoted to divison one.  But they had played in the senior champ the year previous?  Would this have been a big shock?

"Im near certain the only team in Derry that does not have a place name is Sean Dolans."

Kevin Lynch may have had something to say about that.
Fair enough, you have me there :D.  In my defence I was only thinking of the football!  But you have reminded me of another.  Our very own city based hurling club, Na Magha.  Or as we like to call them, The Na Magha Ducks!

thinks its been done but..

servers in some shops that basically drop the change into your hand, and when it goes all over the place look at you as if you have three heads and move onto the next customer without even a sorry  >:( >:( >:( >:(
Happened to me before, and I grabbed a couple of bars of chocolate at the counter and said to your man to take it out of the money he dropped and put the change in the charity box.  I remember what bars i lifted cos he shouted "I need to scan them in".  Which I replied " a snickers and a lion bar"

Just got a HTC wildfire the other day.  What you make of them Abbeysider.

How do you send whats app messages were the recipent actually hears you saying the message to them.  At the minute it only sends the message in text format after I have spoken into the phone?

Wildfire is a nice entry level smartphone, only difference between it and the Desires is memory and processor speeds.
I dont understand that second bit!
Right the missus told me that her mate sends Whats app messages to her mates.  When they open them, tehri phone reads the messages in her voice.  Like a voice mail, only in an instant mesage.  Is this balls or what?  Hope you can understand this tripe that I have wrote  ???

Up until about 12 months ago I used to make enough over the year to pay the majority of the mortgage, this was over a period of four and a half years based on the work of a syndicate on BAGS racing. Unfortunately have been roaded out of all available avenues for getting enough on regularly to make it worth the hassle. The amount of people claiming to be professional punters or making it pay is laughable.
I have been trying to get into arbing but its very time consuming especially at the start.  You come home form work, or after training and you just couldnt be bother, but I really want to give it a lash.  Is this soemthing you would be into/try yourself?

First fight I ever went too.  Defintely a lot different than watching it on telly.  I had Prescott winning Round 1 and possibly the last.  3 rounds with his 10 - 8 in the first. I had McCloskey willing 4 in the middle round 7 - 11 (one I had a draw).  That was on the night.

I watched the fight again last night on the telly.  Id definitely have given Prescott 1,2 and maybe 3.  After that I thought it was even until McCloskey got hit in the 7th and stared at him.  Watching the 12th again last night I thought McCloskey could have shaded that.

Taking Judges that had it 114 - 113 if McCloskey won the last 5 rounds it would mean that Prescott won 3 rounds (10 - 8 round too) leaving 4 rounds even.

I dont think it is that unreasonable.  Then again im not a massive boxing fan and could be talking through my ass.

If anything I was far more impressed with Prescott trying to box rather than trying to knock his man out in the first few rounds.  He looked more comfortable at Saturday nights weight than he did versus Mitchell.
This is the most accurate summary of what happened.  You couldnt have blamed the judges for scoring it either way or a draw.  A one point decision isnt anywhere near as controversial as some people are claiming
