The poor fixture structure for club players in the GAA

The backdoor taking the "bite" of the championship

Getting a bad pint in a bar....at the price of it

The price of diesel at the minute

The lack of decent weather in Ireland

A belated whinge, the way that the new episode of the old black and white Flash Gordon programmes always  rewinded and changed the ending of the previous episode so that Flash/Dale escaped their impending doom. Really p..ed me off as a kid.

Watching the Kerry limerick game, and everytime a Kerry player played a kick pass to a man only 20 yards away the commentator, would say "the quality of the foot passing is excpetional".  FFS no doubt Kerry are good but jaysus your average reserve player could hit a decent pass that distance.  And dont get me started on them near having an orgasm when Declan O Sullivan scored a point with his bad foot 10 yards out.

The way some free staters say "Ye" instead of "You". For example, Caitriona Ruane.

Do you mean Ye instead of Youse? 

Youse is alive and well in Cavan anyway.
I have more respect for a man

When people think that there are people in the GAA secretly pocketing money in large sums even though every penny is ploughed back into the association, accounted for, and published online in an annual financial report that the public can access at any time.

How much does Cooney get for his term? What about his subordinates? If you think every penny goes back to the association then you are a fool!

Cooney like every other GAA President is paid in lieu of his salary - raise a motion through your club to only allow school teachers or what not be elected.

As for his 'sub-ordinates' they're paid a market wage for their position.

Have a look at this years financial report and see how much is ploughed back into clubs - I think Croke Park is dead to pursue as much external commercial income as they can
