Sorry if already mentioned but is Ravenhill a potentially viable (but extremely) remote option, size wise?

I'd imagine Armagh will shut the debate down by agreeing with Antrim and leave the Ulster Council to clear up the mess. Can't see a huge uproar whatever the outcome. Antrim just right fo play the hand they've been dealt.

Any supermarkets going overboard on self service tills, they can f**k right off. Sainsburys comes to mind.

No harm to Maghera but would love to see Abbey VS winning the MacRory. Donegal Town might never see a generation of players come grouped together like that ever again.

Landman was decent, you just know at this stage Taylor Sheridan is banging out scripts in 15 minutes sitting on the dumper.

Quote from: bennydorano on January 07, 2025, 09:32:04 PMStarted watching Bosch, dunno how I missed it, just finished S2, so plenty more to come. Enjoying it. 
It was my binge when I had Covid a few years ago. Really enjoyed it.
Nearing the end now. Even Bosch Legacy's 2 series to date are excellent. Real quality show. Legacy S3 is due out in March, last one ever apparently.

Read & watched quite a bit about it all (& Chechnya too for extra head melting), but it's been that long ago since I read them it is still shocking.

Good show on BBC2 2nite (pt1 of 2), The Balkans Europe's Forgotten Frontier. Not Karadzic related, more about current situations in the whole area (including Albainia). The segment on Bosnia was pretty sad, makes Northern Ireland look enlightened.

Quote from: The Trap on February 02, 2025, 04:13:05 PMIt's like most weekends in the national league down the years.
One excellent game Derry v Kerry
One good game Donegal v Dublin
One ok game Armagh v Tyrone (armagh were excellent but it wasn't really a good contest)
One poor game Mayo v Galway.

Yip, there'll be as much shite under the new rules as the old.

- high scoring does not automatically mean high quality, people assume higher scores also means higher entertainment value which I would also dispute, give me an 11.10 Ulster dogfight any day of the week compared to Laois beating Kildare 25-24 or the like.
- score inflation isn't really being mentioned.

It needs halted for this year's Club football. Absolute madness to be even attempting it when it isn't bedded in at Senior Inter County level and is open to change as the year progresses.

What is Trump actually hoping to gain from the Canadian situation? The Fentynal/Immigration nonsense isn't a huge northern border issue. Trump will likely be the first to back down if the Canadians hold their ground which i'd fully ecpect them too. When Inflation tracks upwards in a month or 2 Trump will fill the togs.

Bringing industry back to US via a tariff war is a long term game as well, Trump doesn't do long term, especially so when it's not himself benefiting immediately.

Quote from: bennydorano on February 01, 2025, 05:57:14 PMBrutal looking starting 15 for Armagh, Tyrone by 7.

This aged well. To be fair I said something similar before the late changes.
Delighted to he wrong. I watched last week's game in an airport and it looked so awful, I was writing off the season already. Tonight has to give a bit of confidence, tactics and discipline on point and still with a fair bit of a first 15 to come back in.
