Quote from: Blowitupref on June 01, 2024, 06:39:21 PMDon't think that penalty was the correct call for Mayo and Roscommon I think should have got a second penalty late on for a foot block. Mayo win by two points 2-14 to 1-15.

The round robins and tiers have completely diluted the significance of the competitions. Added to this is the fact they added this format against the request of counties and the Ulster council. No speeches or interviews further adds to the idea that the GAA are trying to take the competitiveness out of the Minor grade.
Seriously... club minor season is a shams, away behind, U16s has been delayed by a few months already ...
Do Tyrone need to be in a tier2 competition?
Tyrone minors have played I believe 9 games this season and lost 4 of them and deservedly exited the Ulster Championship at the Semi Final stage against Derry. Should be season over and plenty to mull on for the team and players going forward into Under 20 age group. But instead of being finally able to rejoin up with their clubs and play the remaining league games, they are off to play a Tier B competition no one wants to be in that could potentially run for another 3 weeks.
At club level the minor season has been shambolic. CCC telling clubs players are available to clubs and then the county management telling players to not play and then some players playing and others not playing. Ridiculous.
If the GAA are going to insist on continuing down this route of Round Robin and tiers then Club Minor season should not start until late June and conclude prior to the Senior Club Championships starting.
A modified calendar along the lines of:
U12 - April - June
U14 - July - October (finish before school football begins)
U16 - March - June (starting after the conclusion of school football which is generally St Patrick's Day and the traditional club start anyway - County Minors available to all clubs as was supposed to be the case this year but enforced by CCC - problem would be lessened as less players affected)
U18 - Late June - September (beginning after County Minor season and exams and concluded prior to Senior championships)
Reserve (with anyone Over 16 eligible - giving those lads football through Spring) - April - August
Senior (Over 17 only eligible) - May - October
Why should club fixtures be based around school fixtures?
These players are club players first off.
Are you saying U12's finisb in June?

This "growth" in Reform didn't really cut through in the local elections where they only got two Councillors elected in the whole of England and Wales.
The amount of screen time Farage and Tice get isn't representative of who people are actually voting for.
Their share of the vote was barely at double digits.

But the more I think on it, would Bradley be given a job to track Campbell? Put him on the back foot by pushing forward?
If everyone is fit, I'd imagine this team might well line out with the only real doubt Bradley's positioning.
We now do look very light on the bench.
Any confirmation on how long McKinless got?
Not a chance will Emmett bradley start LHB and track campbell. More likely mcfaul will drop in and straight swap with him. However, still don't think CD will start which would shake things up again.
Quote from: AustinPowers on May 30, 2024, 06:47:55 PMSo, big Jeffrey was lying back in January about the Irish Sea border being removed (as anyone with half a brain cell knew)
Robinson yesterday confirmed this.
I 'm not sure why they would admit this with an election coming? Surely this will send many of their voters to the TUV (or other parties)?
Not only that , but Robinson stood with Jeffrey in January knowing what he was saying was a lie. Can unionist voters trust a word he (or the DUP) says again?
Is this the end of the DUP?

Another few votes for Alliance to stop the DUP.
Quote from: Jim Bob on May 29, 2024, 10:36:05 PMQuote from: marty34 on May 29, 2024, 09:16:31 PMThis is the type of candidate that SF are 'going after' now I think. Moving away, to a certain extent, from the old guard. Pat is new blood, if you pardon the pun!
If she is successful, would she go down the route of Health Minister at some stage? She would have a better knowledge that most of this portfolio.
Maybe some long term planning here but needs to get elected first obviously.
Snapchat might know more?
Bet there are a few Sinn Fein members pissed off in FST tonight who have worked their @@@@@ off the past few years and hoping that maybe they would in with a shout of being selected .............
