I could have sworn that a blurb came up during the Sunday game which said that there would be Tailteann cup action later. How much later? 4 weeks?

On the Sunday Game, there was a poor attendance at Sligo v Galway. The time wasn't ideal, but it shows that neither county is interested.

Fair play to the Sindo, still fighting the good fight and calling out Gerry Adams for his heinous crimes

Game over.

Maybe not.

Not often that I agree with this poster

The NHS was never envisaged to deal with the levels of chronic disease we currently see. T2D, Cardiovascular disease, various cancers all on the up. All the polititions can offer is we need more money for doctors and nurses. How about asking why are we all so sick?

We are all old. With advanced age comes more illness. The population is aging. By 2037 1 in 12 people will be over 65.

I'm older every day.

Are Donegal genuine all Ireland contenders?

Jimmy talking Donegal down after that match saying Ulster is their focus and even reaching a final will be progress. He reckons Derry will have say in the All Ireland series, harder route for them now as 3rd seed in the group.

Derry could end up in a group with Dublin and Donegal!

anyone bet on Donegal+9?

This is hilarious.

Donegal won't do as well against Cavan.

Derry beat them in the league final

They beat them in the penalty shootout, they drew the game.

deserves them right for doing that fly keeper nonsense

Why is it nonsense?

it needs to provide more scores than it concedes?

No fan of the Conservatives by any stretch but something like this is badly needed.

A lot of people absolutely milking the system and the rest of us is paying for it.

But think of their mental health!

This didn't age well

Airline and ferry tickets from Liverpool to Dublin on 23-24 May now available.

Thinking about how the lack of interest in games here reflect the general apathy in the community towards football. Used to be you'd have a thread for each of the big games here with multiple pages of craic, analysis and bickering. Now we've one amalgamated thread for all of ulster with very little interest or posts. You'll never see a 100page + thread of tyrone v Armagh banter ever again.

Armagh and Tyrone had 31,000 in their first round game in Clones in 2002 and only a few hundred less at the replay. Then in 2003 they had a sub forum, not a thread, for the final.
Tyrone seem to have lost interest after 4 All Irelands, Armagh should be safe until 2027.
