Quote from: Bord na Mona man on April 07, 2024, 09:19:13 AMI'm surprised Joe is still peddling the Gilroy and MDMA boot story, when it was debunked.

And the story about him not knowing what Sean Cavanagh 
looked  like ???
 Cavanagh had been about the county scene for a while by that stage. Bound to have known him

This pay offer will be accepted and everything will return to normal until next years pay negotiations where teachers will be offered next to nothing and action  short of strike will resume and inspectors will not be allowed in through the door

Quote from: Milltown Row2 on March 18, 2024, 06:49:08 PMWould current teachers prefer the schools to have more resources more teachers smaller classes less workload to having an increased wage?

 All of the above.... Sure why not.  The children deserve the best

Quote from: Jim Bob on March 14, 2024, 07:18:55 PMWhy not just pay an experienced ex county player or manager to write a piece?

At least they have experience in county football and would offer a more informed opinion that someone who has qualified in journalism and has an interest in GAA

Jim Bob, you're taking this article very badly. Should papers just do away with professional journalists? Cahair lives and breathes football, he definitely knows his stuff, but it's just his opinion at the end of the day. You don't have to like it, but no need to dismiss the views because an intercounty player / manager didn't write it.

Well I'm not sitting in the corner crying my eyes out over it

Quote from: God14 on March 05, 2024, 07:34:39 AMGood article by Cahir OKane in todays Irish news about the problems with our attack. he's saying essentially the players are there its the shape thats wrong. i would strongly agree with him

He is basically saying Brian Dooher and his coaches aren't up to it.

That might well be the case.

Very good. Strange Cahir wasn't asked to take Derry when Rory Gallagher left

Exactly. You get a job as a reporter and suddenly you are an expert in GAA.

I don't know if this guy played football to any serious level but he starts telling a double all Ireland winner where he is going wrong.

Quote from: ONeill on March 13, 2024, 07:04:43 PMThat was a tough one last night. Admire how Porto played and how the ref did. Made for an old fashioned game.

On another note, been dead lucky with the ballots. Have entered 5 times and won 3. This time, managed to win 2 tickets together. Heading to Luton game.

You are lucky. Finally made it to silver last year and they turn round and introduce the ballot system
