Will miss him and o'herlihy but not the other two. Actually maybe that's a bit harsh on Giles but definitely wouldn't miss Dunphy.

Quote from: Truthsayer on September 14, 2024, 02:15:20 PMWhat odds about the Euros? A decent GAA stadium is needed at Casement Park. The British government is never to be trusted. If we don't know that by now...
GAA is an All Ireland organisation: this €13 billion needs to be allocated and distributed... obviously housing/poverty a priority but GAA should be getting funds towards Casement Park from it too. It's a lot of money.

Oasis and ACDC money needs to be distributed. How much more hand-out do the GAA need for a vanity project?
You'll find that the GAA has for decades made, and continues to make, a great contribution to Irish community life than any other organisation in the country including the Catholic Church. It is a decent GAA stadium is needed not a 'vanity project' (today's buzzword) for Gaelic Games in Ulster.

It's not todays buzzword, many of us said it from day one

Yeah I never was sure about it at all. Been a disaster from day one and I still wonder who made ludicrous promises etc at the start to mushroom it to the mess it has become.

Get antrim the stadium back and get a respectable county ground built then move on from this debacle.

Definitely some very interesting ideas there. Dunno tbh what the objective should be - more teams get senior championship or more competitive senior championship. Tbf I would imagine the rest of the quarters will be much closer.

I still think eight too small and maybe twelve better but I see what you mean. Sixteen probably a bit much. A smaller one would lead to a better intermediate too. It does look like ballymena and maybe sarsfields ahead of the rest. I do think the junior we have isn't strong at all but if you line the whole lot up it gets much stronger.

Even if the championship was a 12 ahoghill would be in it. We couldn't really do eight teams - too small. (Yes hurling does but too small). Cargin being very far ahead a big enough factor here too.

I thought that looking at him. Fair play to him. Hopefully a good one for years to come.

Is he Owen's kid or another Doherty?

Good to see a new name on the championship - can only be good for competition.

Are people not though? Western governments are complicit and it's a widely held view but what are you meant to do? (bar give off on the internet about it )
