Last time Trump was elected I was anxious about what would happen. After over 45,000 (reportedy twice that) massacred in war crimes aided and funded by US with a nod from Britain and rest of the West, not one f*** could I give who is President of the great imperialist nation. More of the same.

It's pretty much how I feel too.

Though some of the things being mooted in Spain regarding housing, give me hope (tiny, fading embers of hope) that the EU might begin detaching itself from the American way of doing things.

Wouldn't it be great if we could just let them at it instead of joining in?

Doubt I'd know 3 of his songs.

There's not many musical acts since the 1990s for which I could name 3 songs.

I'm perpetually lost in a distant musical era.

Thought for the day.

Do we place omertà on too high a pedestal when it comes to team building?

Just took a look through the Omagh CBS team and it doesn't look overly impressive. Is there many from last year stayed on? Think I seen maybe 4 or 5. Probably don't pay enough attention to the underage club football than I should so not sure on how good they are but looked to be a drop off in quality

Why would anyone expect more than 4-5 players to carry through from one MacRory season to the next?

Ange has to go today doesnt he?  The league cup has been the only thing saving him.

You cant go away to that Everton side and let them put 3 past you.  They've barely scored in months fs

Levy on this occasion is probably waiting for them to lose the league cup semi final tie before sacking him. 
Better managers have been sacked at that club much sooner.

How many league games between now and the cup semi? Would you be surprised if they went and won it anyway? Same f**ker sacked Jose just before a cup final so unless he's learned his lesson from that?

I would think that at this stage even Levy would take the League Cup, as the chances of finishing top 5 for CL money is gone.

Problem for him and Ange is that Spurs do need to win 5-6 league games.

Problem for Levy more than Ange is that a deck of "senior" players - including the captaincy unit of Son, Maddison and Romero - have all but given up on Postecoglou. So if Levy wants the manager to stay, it's yet another rebuild incoming next season.

Here the UK picked Boris Johnson and Truss, one a bluffer and the other out of her depth. Shocking appointments. I can't believe how bad Starmer is. Over here we pick the same all the time based solely on religion and not on ability. Are we all that stupid like Americans, apparently  so.

I made this point on Twitter the last time Tories got re-elected. Norn Irish people giving off stink about how idiotic English people are, having just that morning voted Catholic and Protestant.

Meanwhile the Irish continue to vote for property development conglomerates masked as political parties.

Yet we like to think of Americans as stupid.

We could now end up with something of an epic final between gunslinging Buffalo and Washington, or a damp squib affair between the game management first, game management always pairing of Chiefs and Eagles.

Of course I'm hoping for the former.

Buffalo probably the best team left in it now. Still it took a lot things to go their way last night - home advantage and weather, injuries, minor calls from refs, Andrews making is first drop in a million years - for them to see off the Ravens. They won't have a tougher game again this season, but they won't get that rub of the green either.

I'm honestly not sure if social media kickback played an influence after the Chiefs antics/bias, but last night's game was refereed like a manly sport, and it was much better for it.

SW Donegal into the semis, 2-7 to 1-7 with the winning goal coming right at the end.

There's a shit storm a comin

Just remembered there's a madman taking over an asylum tomorrow.

Not a happy thought.

U up against a Dublin team in croker, it's a advantage even though they don't play there, more a psychological advantage.

That couldn't surely explain more than 0.05 difference between the sides.

Errigal imploded and modern overcoached sides can't react to this situation. To be fair sides couldn't react much better to these situations in the "olden" days either, but at least they'd likely have gone out flailing.

This might be the worst I've seen Spurs play since the pre Martin Jol days.

And I've a seen a lot of poor, awful football since the Martin Jol days.

If Texans had one more receiver I reckon they'd win this.

But they don't. So it's KC by 2-3 points.

Must be an awful lot of angels that never got into a row when they were young, stupid and full of drink. Hayes just happens to be built like a brick shit house so he'll  bate lumps out of most men.

An incredibly poor take.

Almost as poor as the one Burns has made to stick his snout into Rory Gallagher.

RTE seem to have relegated Mayo from their staple, and replaced them with Armagh.

Don't agree with amalgamations but MacRory has always been shady enough at times. That Holy Trinity episode a particularly bad one. It was always strange that it wasn't aligned with Hogan rules at times as well, can't remember the details but wasn't it a case that if you were repeating the year and had a young birthday (U18.5) you could play Hogan but not MacRory which was U18?

It was the other way around, MacRory was u18.5 and Hogan u18. Not so much do with football and more to do with the variance in school ages between the two jurisdictions.
