Is that the biggest ever score by the Laois seniors?

That last free, he didn't blow for the 'first' foul, blew for the obvious round the neck free, spoke to linesman, free then given for first free (which you can't do) and thankfully he missed

Three times in the game he over turned frees awarded to Armagh and let's not mention the on the ground he gave with the ball a foot in the air

But he also gave Armagh a few soft ones.

On balance I think Down did better out of his decisions. But the referee wasn't a determinant factor in the score line of this game, not even remotely close.

Definitely Armagh got a few soft ones and very fortunate I thought to get the foul on the left side in the 2nd half but that was one which Rian missed. I think Down lost because they shot themselves in the foot with poor decisions in the latter part of the game, such as the mark a bit to the left where the kicked hadn't a hope in hell of scoring a point.

What's the deal with  your car insurance when changing  jobs?

Are you meant to  let your insurer know if you  started  a different line of work? (eg. moving from  an office job  to a sales assistant?)

And  do you need to notify them if say,  you became unemployed/or  became a full time  carer for someone ?

Assuming the final is Armagh Donegal, I'm not expecting a spectacle.

12 months too late but better than never I suppose

There's no doubt that an element of proper Far Right will try and infiltrate protests but just seen a clip of the residents of Newtown Mount Kennedy marching and it's a seriously large group of people. Are all those people 'Nazifascist'? Are they the ones that have blocked access to the local GAA pitch?

It also didn't look good the other night when Drew Harris's Riot Squad were intimidating people on their own property, it was like the troubles had moved to Wicklow.

Sorry state of affairs all around and it's the Irish Government that are completely to blame for creating this mess.

Some sc**bag attacks a squad car with an axe and its all the Government's fault?

Be no harm if they were replaced by decent humans.

2 very similar ability teams

I thought it was a decent team with a solid game plan against a slightly better team with no clue,
