Is the game on tg4?

He is losing credibility with that sh*** he is writing every week. Jaysus, he wouldn't inspire me.

Most boring columnist in the Irish News, i just skip it now.

Mid Down ofcourse they should be judged that way. My issue is how in the name of God he got the job.He has zero managerial track record bar a little with div 4 annsborough!!!!
I am told he is not even a member of the gaa .
He would be laughed at if he went for any decent club job he hasn't the cv and it is absolutely ludicrous that he was appointed in the first place!
Things need to be done properly could you imagine him getting a managerial job with any top club team - no way he just hasn't the experience.As a long time follower of Down football club and county I have never seen him at a game. Yes he might go to the silly nostalgic functions about the 90 s teams and plays the great respectable game of golf with old teammates - yawn yawn but he isn't a football man he hasn't got the experience!It is madness to have appointed him ! He probably is a nice fella but going straight in as a county under 21 manager is madness beyond belief !
How in 2009 can such appointments be made at least mc cartan did his time served his apprenticeship so to speak with queens , burren, st galls and ballinderry but collins has not - this is a serious issue ans this should not have happened!

did you get passed over for the job buddy?

another bomb scare in armagh this morning. 40 mins to get through the town. Ireland will be free in no time now. FFS what is the point. when are these knobs going to realise this sh.t is no longer needed or wanted. the new leader of RSF polled 135 votes the last election he stood in.

Late goal finishes off Celtic.  Poor defending for both goals.  Important points dropped.

its getting beyond a joke now. caldwell is terrible. it was very hasty lending out darren o'dea, time to bring him back, some serious moves needed in the transfer window, as for fortune, he makes the greek look class. it very hard to be optimistic now, the last thing you want to do is slag the team you support but this is bad.

i have reached a plateau in training. stuck at the same weight give or take a few kg. esp on chest and shoulders. have tried various supplements and routines, any advice on how to beat this?

Dropsets
change your program every 4-6 weeks
Increase or Change the amount of sets you do and the reps
Change your exercises completly

Eg
If you are constantly doing 3 sets of 8 or 10 (10x10x10)
Then for a change do 10x8x6 (6 being almost your max) for a few weeks and in week 4 or 5 do a drop set on everything
EG 10x8x6x15
That last set of 15 should be a light weight and you should get the last out of your muscle and work it to fatigue.

[capable of running the country]

How about a trip to the morgue and pick at random. Good luck finding someone in Down capable of running the country.Personally I wouldnt attack Mr Bell's committment but to run an organisation like a county board successfully you need to have some sense of corporate leadership. Is there no business men on in the county who wants to get away from the nagging wife that could run the county.

Seamus Walsh is a decent man too but this chairman needs to be someone dominant and forceful. I would vote for Barrak Ob.

Mary Mc Aleese is doing a good enough job, besides she has another two years in office. 

Barrack may be that dominant forceful figure but may have trouble convincing those in the "deep south" for votes. 

Indeed Fairplay, how do you make the chairman's job entertaining and a bit of craic ? Maybe the new "yawn" chairman could take a couple of these suggestions on board, Plant woopie cushions on members off the committee's seats, have them suck on helium balloons when discussing St Patrick's Park  . If you want some "yawn free" craic go to the empire comedy club and let the committee of this county try their best at running Down GAA.

   Did I strike a raw nerve there Dundrumite? Lighten up and maybe get some comedy yourself in the Empire(wherever that is?)

Not a raw nerve, just ignorant posters that contribute mere sh@@e, without thinking about what they are writing need to be challenged. If you care to look at the two words after the Empire that should give you a rough indication as to what it is.

you are a real yawn dundrumshite. it has to be said. a real bore, i bet you were a prefect in school.

[100% right down website is dirt]

In my opinion the down website is crap take a look at other county websites and you will see.

Another quality & well thought out post from a newbie, I often wonder why a lot of  newbie post's are usually based on having a dig at someone or as this one show's, come from people with a severe lack of intelligence
It's not a d-ck measuring contest lad's, sometimes it makes sense to have a look at what you are posting, unless of course you are of Primary school age & just think it's great to be on the GAABoard, which would appear to be the case with some of the rubbish we have been reading recently, end of rant!

with 389 posts to his name mournerambler is the daddy of the gaaboard. how dare anyone new post anything. catch a grip of yourself man, free expression for everyone, you dont own the site.

Went to watch the Glassdrumman match yesterday. Our celebrities were extremely poor and sluggish all over the park. It really was a case of "I'm a celebrity get me out of here" for yourg C. Harrison. He runs the ball well for Glass usually but yesterday he never got a kick. And to wrap things up he resorted to a half assed headbutt attempt. After seeing red he went on a rampage throwing at lease another two misdirected punches whilst, as i can only assume,he lost his sense direction to the dug-outs. So to summarize he was pretty useless. His fighting was as useless as his overall play. If the referee report is worded right he should be having quite a good rest until his next match in Div. 3. No need for such behaviour in football especially since there was still plenty of time to get a result. He let his club down badly. Overall the game was not the most fluent but what else could you expect from football at this time of the year. The referee did very well and got most of the decission correct including the two reds to Glassdrumman.

he is a total w..ker, when the main man stevie parsons held him scoreless in drumgath two years back he headbutted the umpire.

good version of Aiden McAnespie

proper order. hail hail.

Whilst on the topic of Drumgath, what ever happened to a young fella Downey? Mark I think his name is? Seen him play an u 16 final against us a couple of years ago, looked a class act. Aint heard of him playing at senior level.

he threw the head up after an argument and quit. hot tempered lad, pity because he has a lot of potential.

Thats not what happened! Go ask Mark Downey himself & dont fool yourself by believing anybody from Drumgath when they talk on this matter, they have a million different explanations but the truth..

enlighten us then?

what is going on with skippy, he does not look interested these days.

Some papers talking up the possibility of trouble tonight, apparently Hamburg have close connections to Rangers and their fans are intent on trouble.  Hope it passes off incident free and Celtic can sneak the result.

huns fans rioting again last night in Romania, scum give us all a bad name. papers just trying to tar hoops fans with the same brush. should be some craic in hamburg with st Paulie fans. shebeen will be giving it a rattle tonight.
