Hmmm I'll have to find out who saffron and blue is!

This is from MWR, it's actually 5 kms not 5 miles but it's still great!

"AN BORD PLEANALA HAS DEFERRED A DECISION ON GRANTING SHELL PLANNING PERMISSION FOR ITS CONTROVERSIAL ONSHORE MODIFIED GAS PIPELINE ROUTE IN NORTH MAYO.
IT HAS ASKED SHELL TO ADDRESS A NUMBER ISSUES RELATING TO THE SAFETY OF THE 9KM PIPELINE ROUTE THAT WILL TAKE GAS FROM THE SHORELINE AT GLENGAD TO THE COMPANY'S GAS REFINERY IN BELLANABOY.
SHELL MUST MAKE SIGNIFICANT MODIFICATIONS TO ITS ONSHORE PIPELINE ROUTE AND COME BACK TO THE BOARD BY FEBRUARY.
UNDER THE STRATEGIC INFRASTRUCTURE LEGISLATION THE BOARD HAS IN PRINCIPLE APPROVED THE APPLICATION SUBJECT TO SIGNIFICANT MODIFICATIONS.
AN BORD PLEANALA HIGHLIGHTS PROBLEMS WITH ABOUT 5 KM OF THE ROUTE THROUGH ROSSPORT.
SAYING HOUSES ALONG THE ROUTE ARE WITHIN THE HAZARD RANGE OF THE PIPELINE SHOULD A FAILURE OR FAULT OCCUR.
THE BORD ALSO WANTS A HIGHER RISK THRESHHOLD IMPOSED ON THE PIPELINE ROUTE – SHELL WILL BE REQUIRED TO MEET UK STANDARDS.
IN ADDITION, ITS TELLING THE COMPANY.TO GO BACK TO AN EARLIER ROUTE OPTION THAT WAS REJECTED AND ESSENTIALLY SENDS THE PIPELINE UP THE BAY.
IN A STATEMENT SHELL SAYS  IT REMAINS "FIRMLY OF THE VIEW THAT THE PIPELINE AS DESIGNED IS SAFE AND MEETS ALL INTERNATIONAL STANDARDS AND INDUSTRY BEST PRACATICE".
IT CONCLUDES THAT IT WILL NOW GIVE DETAILED CONSIDERATION TO THE BOARD'S SPECIFIC REQUESTS.
INITIAL REACTION FROM LOCAL RESIDENTS IS THAT AN BORD PLEANALA HAS TAKEN ON BOARD LOCAL CONCERNS EXPRESSED TO IT DURING AN ORAL HEARING ON THE MATTER LAST SUMMER"

[BIG TIME!]

There is simply no other club team in the world that exerts that amount of pressure on the opposition in the final 5 minutes plus injury time than Utd, when they scent blood. I usually kick the missus when they do it but tonight it was a pleasure to watch. Players who played average to crap for 85 minutes suddenly become Zidanes for 10 minutes, breaking tackles, passing at speed - every touch a good one. It is relentless. Those deflections aren't luck - if you're battering the door down the slightest touch might see it eventually collapse. The opposition dung them.

If Utd could do that at 20 minute intervals they'd blow teams away long before the final quarter.

I was just saying that to me oul lad. Why the f**k does it take them till the last 10 minutes to play when they're behind? They shouldn't be behind if they played like that for most of the game!!!

As for Chelsea, the defence needs sorting out BIG TIME!

Now they have to re-route the pipe for around 5 miles. Delighted so I am. The only problem is what part of unspoiled scenery will be effected (sp) next?

WeareBlueWeAreWhite would get mine but he'd only get into a hissy fit.

Mine are Roger, EvilGenius and MylesnaG.

Lord Jaysus Christ, what a final 10 minutes. Always felt if we could nick a 2nd goal we'd get a draw! Ref was an absolute disgrace.

Which variation of the Irish accent is it though? I believe there's 32 accents all in the one island!

I've to go for dinner now but I'll post mine tonight!

Feel free to post away the rest of ye now!

He took the heat off me for a while

f**k sake it's as slow as a wet week for me tonight!

Suppose somebody will mention the 2006 AI final.

It was that boring, I'd forgotten about it

I wish I could too...

Suppose somebody will mention the 2006 AI final.

We had a blip in the 50's but we were strong in the 60's and really it was after 1969 when the wheels came of completely.

How and why is this? I know I can't speak for much as Mayo haven't won that many AIs either, but I am intrigued as to how Cavan football is in the state it's in.
