No man would have slept better in his bed last night than Lavey manager Gary Cushnehan.
A searing platter of humiliation kindly handed to Damian Cassidy, no doubt a settling of scores for his role in sending Lavey down a division.
As for the Lavey performance, I have not seen them perform as well since their glory days.
Has a sleeping giant just been awakened?

Relegation play offs looking like they will involve balinderry, loup, Coleraine and then either dungiven or screen. Any early thoughts on what two could go down?
Ballinasceeen and dungiven have both beaten Swatragh. We're def in the relegation mix.

Any lad know what's going on in Loup? 3 losses on the bounce and another disaster last night, 5points up again Steelstown with 5mins to go and they lose by 1.

Drinking is becoming a bit like smoking, its not normal to go to the pub every night or even once a week, coffee bars (I don't drink it) cafe's and the likes becoming more popular and that should be a good thing as we drink way too much, if anyone has teenage kids or adult kids will know, when they are on one and you are picking up the pieces its not nice.
Pubs closing is not a bad thing, and this is from someone that loves a good session, but its not good for your health in any shape or form, I've cut down massively on weekend drinking, no weeknight drinking.
Being over in England more now you notice more that the pub means more to the locals
That said I'm off to Donegal tomorrow for the weekend
Most village pubs in England are very different to local bars here though, there's possibly one or 2 in an area - not 15 down one street. Open outside sitting areas, better weather to sit outside and have a drink. More child friendly etc. They're usually within walking distance of the village where most people live - our population spread doesn't make that easy in the countryside.
A lot of the pubs that have closed through the country were old fashioned old man bars and they never really moved with the times. That's my experience here in south Down - maybe other areas are different.

A few weeks ago, a one of our players kicked the ball away after a free had been awarded, and the ref moved the ball up ~40 yds. The opposition scored. Even tho we were penalised, if it's legal, I wish refs would do this more often.
