Some posters would be quite knowledgeable about talking shite.

Indeed, shite talk about Corrigan Park, shite talk about beating cavan and beating us up some alleyway over on Antrim thread. Now its all the managers fault i see - more shite talk. Real talk is done on the pitch. Fair play to Leitrim, always give everything against all the odds. Antrims best chance is the GAA do a Dublin and do a bit of financial doping.

Solid display today from Cavan, inspired by a sublime performance from Ray Galligan who scored 7 long range frees and saved two penalties. Very poor turnout from Down supporters, doubt there was 100. That was sad to see from a GAA county I've a lot of respect for. As cavan man we know the feeling of a top club turning against their own county, happened for years with us too. I say tell Branigan and chums to fcuk off and focus on your underage and the lads who want to wear the famous Jersey.

Cavan motoring well but still have another gear or two.

Finally, what a joke Antrim are. Talked up all year and then bet out the gate by Leitrim. Too many shite talkers up there seems to me.

Can someone summarise what it's all about in under 25 words?

Johnny was chatting online with a doris who name dropped an intercounty ex and loads of mutual friemds . She refused to meet him but sent her housemate which he thought odd.  He contacted the GAA player who said he had the same story. It's a massively elaborate scam. But unclear to what end.

Anyone else count the words?


Just me then...

I got to 18 and then stopped thinking he's going to be way over 25

I read this 5 times and still don't know what the hell this is aboit

Here you go Itchy:  https://www.rte.ie/lifestyle/living/2022/0526/1301273-johnny-bs-catfishing-story-takes-internet-by-storm/

Right, now they need to call the people in the white coats

Guns in America is about money and greed, like everything else in that country. The lives of little kids are less important than that. The idiots who shout about freedom are just pawns who are easy to manipulate.

What a kip of a country. Looking down their noses at countries around the world yet allowing their own to be saturated with guns.

GAA Discussion / Re: Armagh v Tyrone [Athletic Grounds, Sun 5th June, 1.30]

« on: May 23, 2022, 10:54:20 PM »

Perfect draw for both counties. Tyrone with a great opportunity to vanquish a rival to get back on track and extract revenge for the league game. Armagh with the opportunity to either pick up a big scalp or hasten the departure of a much maligned manager. Only issue is that I won’t be there due to a weekend away organised last August before the Jubilee was even announced. Hopefully I can pick it up in Birmingham.

Do you reckon McGeeneys job depends on this result?

McGeeney has an appalling record in Ulster but it seems his playing days ensure that he is un-sackable.

Big review and analysis of the games on the SG tonight no doubt lol

Like the old Rounds 1 and 2 Qualifiers, the 16 games used to get a total of about 4 minutes from a dodgy camera positiond round the corner flag.

That'll put it on first, show 1 minute of each game. Then one of the pundits will talk about Offaly and Wicklow. For Offaly they will mention John Maughan and u20s (u20s will be mentioned for them for next 10 yrs)

For Wicklow they will find a player they heard off before and talk about how great he is. Then they will spend more time talking about the principle of the Tailtean Cup than the highlights and comments combined.

2pm on Saturday, that's the way to promote this and get a big crowd in. Pathetic.

One thing that does stick out to me as a problem is that this weekend, for example, Wicklow will play Waterford. One of them will lose and that is the season over. What's the difference between that and the old back door? Was there not supposed to be a round robin initially in the Tailteann cup?

I'm conflicted, id love Derry to win on one hand but I can't stand Rory Gallagher and especially the carry on he's at on the line. He wants a good kick in the bollox.
