Too many teams playing for a competition well beyond their standard.

Raise your standards and you'll belong..

You've two options maintain div 2 status or reach a county final..

Promotion from div3 doesn't guarantee but it's the other option.

No div 3 team regardless of their tradition or upsets will win Sam

The season at championship level has way too many games for no reason

Seen a horrible post on social media blaming the Chelsea player who injured Jota resulting in his requirement to drive/ferry home!

Some sad individuals

Give me the PSIN over the RUC every day of the week

Some here must have very short memories on how the RUC B Specials and UDR plus the Army acted during the troubles

It's not perfect but I'm happier to be living now in comparison to the crowd before

You do know the Police Ombudsman's office has cited instances where the PSNI withheld information, including material relevant to investigations into loyalist killings.
In some cases, information that police previously stated did not exist was later found, particularly during civil proceedings related to these killings...
They arrested two journalists who exposed the murderers involved in Loughinisland rather than go after the killers.
A do-righty attitude isn't sufficient. ..at least they're not killing us now, they're just blocking the truth getting out.
Many more examples, no attempt to stop those bonfires, arresting a pensioner for putting an anti-Israeli sticker on a banklink. Has gone back to that sectarian police force as the recruitment numbers show.

Where would you like me to start? From randomly firing into divis tower killing kids to opening up indiscriminately at Ballymurphy killing innocent people to collusion on an industrial level resulting in innocent deaths and shoot to kill policy?

Like I said it's not perfect but a hell of a lot better.

What age would you be?

Sinner is laser focused here!

To think he was on his way out only for an injury to a player earlier

Anyone experiencing difficulties finding Tyrone kerry game to buy on the app for Saturday?

The game is on rte/bbc, im
Not sure if it's definitely available to buy on GAA plus. I presume it must be for all Ireland semi final

Maybe it will be accessible closer to the throw in time

If the BBC are showing it then it will only be available outside these islands.

Showed the hurling so will definitely show the football, iplayer should have it also, can Iplayer been watched in Spain?

Talk about opportunism for a few £.

The French aviation unions do it every year causing all sorts of problems during the summer, if you ain't happy with what you are paid, find a job that is better.

Oh here's a job, yeah I like the wages the set up and the benefits... one year later, lets go on strike.. rinse and repeat

You lads would do well in the Conservative Party. Up the workers

Go on then, tell me what are they looking? Everyone wants more money, but who's willing to pay for it?

To facilitate the public sector wages demands we'd need to be paying 50% tax.. Are we all happy with that?

As for a service, Translink is pretty poor and expensive

Never money to pay workers but always plenty to fund wars. Bullshit

I hear ya, that doesn't change the fact that you and me and everyone else has to pay more for a better service, if paying them more will make the service better that is..

War funding has been going on for thousands of years, it won't stop

I'm not saying they shouldn't ask for better money. Just seems never ending public (part in this case) are always unhappy about the jobs they are in

Browsing through the terrestrial channels the other night and stumbled upon the start of the much vaunted classic, The Wicker Man, the 1973 original with Edward Woodward and a young ,nubile Brit Ekland, so I thought I'd give it a go and see what the fuss was about as I'd never watched it in its entirety before.

I was slow paced, and TBH weird as fúck for big parts of it with all the hedonism, paganism etc going on and the confusion around the "missing girl" soon to be sacrificed to the god of the sun on May day, but strangely kept you involved until the big switcheroo at the end.

I'd say it was a decent story well told and captured on film, maybe hasn't stood the test of time in lots of aspects but a worthwhile watch all the same.

Is there any other old classics out there worth viewing now?

With Mr Woodword in lead role, have you watch Breaker Morant set during the Second Boer War.

He's a quality actor all the same

yawn 🥱 3.5 years and slaughter and your answer is more...

Its best just to roll over and get your belly tickled

[No men got a look in at the camogie game last weekend, but sure there was a lady doing the men's semi hurling final!]

The sickener for women's equality was the same age for retirement age lol

If all the women involved know the game, have maybe played and have competent analysis ability, then I have no bother with that. Putting in a token male who may not be as knowledgeable for the sake of it commentating on Camogie. It's all about the best people for the job not balancing gender numbers.

So how many women are male intercounty hurlers that know the game? So by your logic she's a token female being put in for the sake of it?

None to the answer to the first bit. Didn't mean to come across that way with your second question. There is no doubt that there are male and female pundits able to talk about the opposite sexes game. And if they are good enough why not - but it should not be based on gender balance.

But its not happening, one way street it seems, if we are on about equality rather than playing experiences and insight from that, then I'm confused as why male pundits at camogie games are very very rare but nearly every week in male football and hurling we have a woman who has never played the men's game.

Camogie has a lot of male managers who'd have great insight into the game btw.

I'd have more respect for broadcasters if they just came out and be honest and say we are trying to even up the panels..

It's like the girl that does the rugby, English girl, no experiences really to draw from in the mans international standard of rugby

Commentators can be both in my book btw

No games this weekend.....next weekend

Strange

I missed the one for the weekend round up.. how'd it go?
