Anyone want to guess what their FPV % will be in the upcoming Local Elections
I'm going to say they will come in at 18%
You know we have proportional representation in elections don't you? So let's see do their seats go up or down. Let's see how the racists get on too.
Yes
But FPV% is a clearer indication as to whether top line support has gone up or down and it's bang front and center in every report written about the results of that election

Just listened to the Gript Podcast-Peasar Toibin very impressive. Hermann Kelly-very unimpressive
haha, Gript again but now with Hermann Kelly.
Listen lad, the only metric that matters is number of seats. Its very simple, even for you.
Well if their FPV% collapses, there a good chance their seat count will too (but not guaranteed)
Quote from: JoG2 on Today at 04:33:34 PMWhoever is benefiting does not give a licence to do whatever you want, no matter how unscrupulous or adversely affecting our games, in order to make profits.Quote from: Truthsayer on Today at 03:54:26 PMQuote from: tonto1888 on Today at 03:31:42 PMI wouldn't go that far but is people in Croke Park whose remit is to maximise profits and at times they need to be reined in.Quote from: Tyrone Dreamer on Today at 02:10:53 PMI don't know what the motivation was but there certainly is some logic in the 3 teams going through other than money. It greatly reduces the number of dead rubbers and increases the importance of topping the group.
you have got it all wrong. Its all money. Grab all association and what have you..........
To what end? Who is benefiting from these profits?
Quote from: bennydorano on Today at 09:46:06 AMKerry are the one team this year who I've felt have been playing their cards very close to their chest, that or they've just been pretty poor. Seeing that's it's Kerry we'll have to give them the benefit of the doubt I suppose. I remember thinking Derry had moved ahead of them in the pecking order but the league really is just the league. I'd be tempted to back them for the AI at this stage- not that it would be a huge shock if they won.
Quote"It's easy for me to say after a game that we've won that penalties is not the right decision but unfortunately I've been on the receiving end of a county final defeat in 2020 to Naomh Conaill, and I missed one that day myself,"
"But I think if you can't separate [the teams], especially in a final, an Ulster final or an All-Ireland final - and I know the All-Ireland does go to a replay - there has to be a way that we can fit in a replay.
"The two teams, to be fair, give absolutely everything and you couldn't separate us after 90 minutes. I think both teams would have deserved a replay.
"But it's easy for me to say that. I'm not sitting down with the GAA master fixtures [plan], and trying to fit in weeks here and there. I can understand the headaches that come with that.
"Listen, it was a phenomenal way for us to win it. It's unbelievable being on the winning side of penalties but I can feel for Armagh because I've been on the losing side."

Quote from: Rossfan on Today at 03:44:30 PMWe lost to the eventual Champions every year 2010 to 2016.
13 and 16 particularly galling.
I believe it's €25 for the Final.
A bit steep!
