Either way will Harte spend more than 2 years at Derry? Is O'Rourke still over Glen at the minute?

Didn't know fleadhs and weddings were grounds to have games called off.

Ccc meeting with clubs in February it was agreed that clubs could request dates for weddings or special circumstances (golf classics etc) and county board would refix the game if the two clubs didn't come to an agreement on a refixture

should have been played before the original fixture not weeks later. Somebody has pulled a fly one.

Or ye know, maybe, both teams and ccc agreed to change the game? Bit of co-operation with all parties. Rather than the nonsense of years gone by where clubs twisted with other clubs and forced players to miss weddings etc

How are we miles off Dublin? We drew with them in championship last year, snd they beat us by a point in the league this year. The championship result this year was very disappointing but hard to say we are miles off them.

Miles off playing them in Parnell park
A lot closer in corrigan
Same with most teams we play

Long to stand for Alliance in East Belfast, this will pressurise the new leader of the DUP.

Am I right in thinking if Armagh don't win the group we have to meet Kerry or Dublin in a Q/F? (plenty of ifs to factor in but looking likely) Can't meet our own group winner, nor Donegal who will win their group.

No, q/f is an open draw. S/f is different in that, 'where possible' you can't play a team you've already met in the championship eg we couldn't have played Monaghan last year

I think Ten Hags main job was to make progress in the premier league and in Europe. He failed abysmally at that task, getting knocked out of Europe completely at the first hurdle and dropping to a poor 8th in the premier league. Does the fa cup win make up for that. I don't think so. He was lucky to face an off form City in the final.

The only question to be answered is who replaces him.

Didn't Arteta in his first two seasons with Arsenal finish 8th in the Premier League and winning the FA Cup was deemed a success?  As for luck Manchester City were average club until they were lucky that their current billionaire owners chose them.

Average club is being extremely kind. They finished 14th in the PL the last full season before they approved an approach from Thaksin Shinawatra - a guy who was already in exile after getting overthrown due to corruption!

Harte and Horse have only just started.. A two and a half legged dog took a four legged dog to their very limit in Salthill. The championship is just finishing it's soundcheck.

Well let's see, tactics over the years with various conflicts or wars have used indiscriminate bombs to create fear..

Doesn't mean it will impact change from the aggressors, in fact might have the opposite
