Corrected!

Ireland is predicted to have a surplus of €67 billion by 2027. The money it costs to keep asylum seekers is a drop in the ocean.
They are not to blame for the lack of housing.

Just on a side note it astonishes me the queues of people you see waiting to pay £2 for a cup of tea in a cardboard cup. Buy a thermoflask and some teabags and pay 2p a cup for life.

Dune part two is an absolute masterpiece in film making. Loved it so much I saw it twice.

Was looking at patio furniture last night online and then thought what is the point. Be better spending the money on a fill of heating oil.

Trying to get the ground dry for rotavating and sowing. It'll be September before its dry at this rate.

Clan na nGael to Brocagh is some spin. I'd say they aren't happy.

But crashes do put premiums up. This isn't rocket science.

Quote from: RedHand88 on March 25, 2024, 07:41:01 AMRemember when the media/twitterati said Sinn Fein wasn't a democratic party because Mary Lou was elected unopposed?

Nope. Not in any media I read. But I try to avoid the crazies on 'social' media.

How about the Irish Examiner, or former Tánaiste Michael McDowell, just for starters?

Quote from: Armagh18 on March 24, 2024, 05:30:44 PMTyrone got tanked against Kerry down there in 2021 in a league game. Would read nothing into that today.

If it was in isolation then I'd agree with you but Tyrone are going nowhere this year and haven't been since they won the Covid AI title. You can't lose that many players and still remain competitive and they have done well to retain their division one status with practically a new team. They might come good in a few years time as they are still doing well at underage level but I expect that they will limp their way through the championship again and I'd be surprised if they make much of an impact.

The covid AI title?! Wasn't 2020 the covid all ireland title? WUM.

Quote from: TwoUpTwoDown on March 24, 2024, 10:33:20 AMWill game be shown anywhere? Like would it be on a stick for example...

Hopefully not.

Can anyone who was there report how bad it was? Did we get it wrong on the line or are the players just not anywhere near the level needed?

Quote from: Truthsayer on March 24, 2024, 10:05:29 AMTrip to Croke Park today not at all enticing for Tyrone folk. Happy to retain Div 1 status and Dublin will want a league final with no real competition until the other side of the Leinster final. Dublin-Derry shud make for good league final.

Tyrone can still make the final.
Didn't know that.. wud have needed some combination of bizzarre results for that to happen

Gotta be honest. I can't see it happening now......

Need kerry to lose to Galway in Killarney and also for us to hammer Dublin (currently down by....checks notes.... 20).
