Some people can't understand simple instructions.
Yes i understood the original instruction. Sincere apologies for cutting to the chase. It would be far quicker just saying how many countries people have visited rather than having a 100 page thread to get to the answer

Excellent programme that showed the devastation visited on families during the Troubles.
And one active member of the RIR allegedly..
Is your man Swinger Fulton still alive?
Quote from: LeoMc on April 23, 2024, 09:32:00 AMI knew a lot of the story but what got me was the State going after the Coroner, a respected senior judge, for revealing to the families the number of state agents involved.
Quote from: NAG1 on April 23, 2024, 09:33:19 AMPowerful programme but don't think anything that wasn't already in the public domain came out of it. Still very important for the family to keep this in the headlines and keep the pressure on.
Wasn't only the cameras on the police station in Toome that weren't working that night, some of the 'locals' in Bellaghy also had mysterious malfunctions.
Horrible times.

Derry/Donegal was an intense a game as you will see.
Thought the two in the middle for Derry were quiet all day and either of them being subdued can only mean bad things for Derry. A month off to process and learn, so you would think there will be a response to that.
Donegal were brilliant and got everything spot on tactically. A high intense gameplan and Derry had no answers. The only issue is, they only have a week to do their homework on Tyrone and whether they can match that intensity with the quick turnaround remains to be seen.
Full credit to Cavan, a classic case of throwing the shackles off and going at it nearly got them there. Tyrone had enough experience to get them over the line. Again tired bodies will count against them against Donegal. Hard to see them winning giving how both teams played.
I think you're giving Derry too much credit there. Donegal bossed the game in every position from the first minute to the last. It was a 6 point hammering.
Derry were very flat, tactically outthought and seemed to be playing like we might have done 3/4 years ago. But a lot of that was down to how good Donegal were.
Tyrone/Cavan are pretty much on a par I believe.
If Donegal play as well again next weekend, they'll have not trouble with Tyrone, the question is can they motivate themselves to that level again?
I'd expect Armagh to beat Down, but it won't be the facile victory some are predicting. Down will compete physically, if they can get their scoring boots on they could rattle Armagh.
Based on the weekends games, Donegal are best placed to win Ulster imo.
Big question for Derry is was this just a blip with eye off the ball? Or have the wheels fallen off under Harte after the high of winning the league.

Don't tell Derry that.

The whole team naming gaa culture is a nonsense with these multiple changes come throw-in, but I thought that at least it had been agreed no changes could be made outside the 26 named.Quote from: cornerback on April 18, 2024, 11:42:08 PMYeah I think you name 4 lads in reserve who don't appear on programme but can come in last minute.Quote from: screenexile on April 18, 2024, 11:32:54 PMDerry going with the same team as the league final.
No real surprise didn't think they'd risk McKinless from the start and he's a great impact sub.
No Murphy on the bench??
Can changes be made to the 26? Harte normally names his subs in alphabetical order. Doherty is out of place & Murphy would fit in at 25 alphabetically.
Quote from: Wildweasel74 on April 18, 2024, 03:30:02 PMSee Gough ref for Saturday, was he not off the pace abit on the original ref fitness test or was that Coldrick.? Didn't think he kept up well in the Roscommon game in the league, and that wasn't a high paced game.
Quote from: SouthOfThe Bann on April 18, 2024, 01:13:10 PMQuote from: yellowcard on April 18, 2024, 01:06:06 PMHe completely revolutionised tactics in gaelic football and had the tactical wherewithal and strength of personality to set a team up ultra defensively by playing zonal at the back. He didn't care one bit what anybody thought of him and probably still doesn't as it brought him an AI title that they would not have won if playing conventionally. The criticism only bolstered him and created a siege mentality that he seems to need. It was complete outside the box thinking at the time and very gutsy but don't pretend that it didn't set gaelic football back as a spectacle and which has never really recovered since then.
I don't think it was his aim to be ultra defensive because of some form of idealism, it was just that did whatever he thought was required to give them the best possible chance at winning.
Managers do whatever they have to do to win.
Look at Ancelotti last night; they sat back in the lowest of low blocks played on the break and looked to frustrate City and took their chances on a penalty shootout.
Should we Chastise Ancellotti in the same fashion?
