Only realized the Donegal game was being televised with a few minutes left!

FT 1-16 to 0-11

Brings us up to five points. Another point should do it, unless Cavan and Roscommon suddenly turn things around.

You need to be hit on the head repeatedly with a plastic hammer 
I had to get though about 10 sites which only showed the Donegal Cavan game before I could get one which had the Omagh game.

The warm, dulcet tones of Highland Radio kept me company for most of it.

[If we could get into the Champions League we'd probably do well in it. Playing the big games seems to suit us.]

Where the f**k was that intensity and effort on Monday?

Will it be missing against Burnley next week?

Good to see Origi play well when he came on. Lallana, Coutinho, Firmino and Mane combined brilliantly tonight as well.

Bring in the Super Eight and we re laughing. Why the f**k can we not do this against the lower teams. 3 losses since Christmas against teams that were in the bottom 3 when the match kicks off. ..

Arsenal were brutal. Even after they scored they were bad.
The 3rd goal was nice. Enough teams have scored against us on the break it was nice to get one ourselves.
Put your house on Burnley to beat us next week.

I was just thinking that myself watching it. But, as you say, the problem is getting into it!

0-6 to 0-4 to Donegal at half-time.

Cavan have come back into it well with Johnston frees after being five points down after 20 minutes. They're down to 14 men though.

[Visiting goalkeeper MOTM in Old Trafford again.]

Visiting goalkeeper MOTM in Old Trafford again. Ibrahimovic certain to miss 3 games will one of those games be the Fa cup quarter final against Chelsea

Penalty aside, those saves looked fairly routine.

Is he trying to distract from the Russia thing maybe??

Be interesting to see how Pres. Obama handles this will he just dismiss it or make a big deal out of it and hold Trump to account??

I think Trump and Bannon have had it with the leaks and are going to go on offense big time......fasten your seatbelts

Getting personal too, calling Obama a "bad (or sick) guy"!

If they were tapped, one would assume the Feds were listening in while looking into the Russia allegations.

Hard to see Obama being dumb enough to engage or get involved in Nixon type shit that was bound to come out.

I wonder when Bernie will be holding a press conference to publicly amd forcefully disavow his supporter who was making the bomb threats to the Jewish Community centers

Did Bernie run a divisive campaign courting the alt right?

That is f**king sick.

In 1948 Dr.Noël Browne, a new T.D. for Clann na Poblachta, and a socialist, became Minister for Health in a coalition government. Browne was an admirer of Fianna Fáil's 1947 Health Act[4] and intended to implement its provisions as part of a plan to reduce the alarmingly high rate of child mortality (especially from tuberculosis) in Ireland,[5][6][7] modernise the Irish healthcare system and make it free and without means-testing for mothers and their children up to the age of 16.[4] He was impressed with the National Health Service in the United Kingdom[8] and successful medical procedural reforms in Denmark which reduced child mortality.[9] With vigour he tackled the domestic health issues and was acclaimed for the results.[10]
Then in July 1950, Browne's department formally submitted the scheme to the Irish Medical Association.[11] The Association had originally opposed the 1947 bill, mentioning the "socialisation of medicine."[4][10] They were supported in the coalition cabinet by the experienced Fine Gael T.D. Dr.Thomas F. O'Higgins, the Minister for Defence and a former member of the executive of the Irish Medical Association. More important was the opposition of the Archbishop of Dublin, John Charles McQuaid, who summoned Browne to his palace[8] and read out a letter to be sent to the Taoiseach, John A. Costello, penned by Dr.James Staunton, Bishop of Ferns, which contained, "...they [the Archbishops and bishops] feel bound by their office to consider whether the proposals are in accordance with Catholic moral teaching," and, "Doctors trained in institutions in which we have no confidence may be appointed as medical officers ... and may give gynaecological care not in accordance with Catholic principles.[12][13] The letter stated that health provision and physical education for children were solely the "right" of parents and not the State's concern. Archbishop McQuaid was the chairman of some boards of directors of Dublin hospitals. He exercised considerable influence concerning medical appointments and control over the religious orders whose members made up much of the administrative and management staff in hospitals, sanatoria etc.[14][15] Concerning the term "moral teaching" in the letter to the Taoiseach, Browne received supportive advice - in secret - from Francis Cremin, a Maynooth professor of theology and canon law.[8] Some bishops, McQuaid and others feared the scheme could pave the way for abortion and birth control. Though some Catholic Church leaders may have been privately sympathetic to Browne and wished to reach an accommodation, what was viewed as Browne's tactless handling of the Catholic Church forced the moderates into silence, allowing the anti-Mother and Child Scheme members of the hierarchy under McQuaid to set the agenda.[16]

What the hell is "gynaecological care not in accordance with Catholic principles"??

Ireland was a sick, disgusting place back then.

Murphy hasn't really been dominating games for a while now. Maybe it's a bit harsh to say he's living on reputation but I've seen him well policed more times than not recently.

He's been going very well in the last two league games, including against yourselves.

He'd a quiet championship last year. Rumours were he was carrying an injury, which he always denied. I'd say it's a case of, as with a lot of players any more, of getting swallowed up in the morass and Donegal spreading him too thin.

Posts with actual real substance are welcomed by most people, I would think.

Read and absorb liberals, you just might learn something!

At least I've got the balls to admit when I may have made a mistake. It's called honest debate.

Unlike yourself, who continually posts all kinds of unsupported, hysterical, conspiracy nonsense and never acknowledges when you're caught out or legitimately contradicted.

I mean, if you're going to single me out and gloat and all...

Monaghan to outscore and outmuscle Tyrone

We've done that before and still lost the game.

An apology from you would have been better.

Would you say I attacked Elizabeth Warren with a special bit of vitriol seeing as she's Native American?
But you have no issue with me having a go at Nancy Pelosi?

Can you see your pattern yet? I think you might be the racist Ted

If you think that it doesn't play on Democrats minds that they need to follow the party line then you're kidding yourself. Lewis should have shown leadership in attending, even if he registered his disagreement. That's democracy. His actions have caused a wider split in society.

You came up with a plausible explanation for the Leslie Jones one. That doesn't really detract from your pattern though of crawling out of the woodwork whenever a BLM issue or black criminal issue comes up or trying to deny or minimize the reality of the prejudice that black people have and continue to face, saying its all a con-job perpetrated by Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson. Or your (drunken?) rant a few weeks about liberals wanting the extinction of white males??  And even in the Lewis post, WTF is *****? Why single him out from "Pelosi, Warren and co"? Was his inauguration boycott really THAT upsetting to you? Are you seriously going to talk about Lewis and "splits in society" after the Trump campaign and now administration, steered by Bannon?

Perhaps you have a communication issue, like Trump claims he has.

People who can't read would be deemed to have communication issues. Next time try not make stuff up and look at what's actually on the screen.

You can apologise on a private message if it saves face for you

Hey, I've no problem apologizing, pubicly, when it is warranted.

So, taking you at your word, I apologize to you, foxcommander, for misinterpreting your Leslie Jones post.

The rest... I stand by completely.
