Listen, there are 32 Counties in Northern Ireland and down south, and 31 of them have a Gaelic football team with the exact same name as there county so why should Londonderry be called Derry, I think it is highly disrespectful to the British by dropping the London. So I will not rest until Londonderry is placed upon the GAA jersey of Londonderry and also they replace the Derry written on the Sam Maguire Cup with Londonderry.

Don't expect that to happen anytime soon, dude.

By the way, I presume what's written on Sam is 'Doire', not 'Derry'.

On the Armagh squad - what club does Niall Geoghan play for? Good to see Swift back and good to see the 2 maghery boys get a chance. Still no sign of Stefan Forker?

Niall plays for Middletown

Would highly back Londonderry to win and yes I am a protestant and I follow the GAA, quite vividly.

Not vividly enough to know there is no team called londonderry in the mckenna cup no matter what you would like them to be called. Anyway, I predict Cavan will beat derry on Sunday. Btw, where I'm from plenty of protestants play and follow gaa - you are not alone.

This has got nothing to do with the McKenna cup. By all means please open a separate thread and I am sure you will get plenty of replies. Incidentally there is a team that does not have the exact same name as its county name. And its not Derry.

Were you an avid follower, you might be worth taking seriously.  :P
