Joe Brolly on talkback today, he claims he wont be at any more Derry senior games as they are paying Mickey Harte. Could of sworn I seen him in the crowd at the St Brigids / Rossa game. What a hypocrite he is, with two Tyrone men managing St Brigids (assuming not for charity) this one was clearly for soundbites.

He's getting the reaction (good or bad) it seems

If he has just gone with the footballing aspect he would have been correct.

Can't see this as anything other than a massive backward step for Derry.

Absolutely - imagine a Harte managed Derry side playing v Kerry this past summer. It would have been an unwatchable dirge, rather than one of the most exciting games of the year. Very poor decision I think for Derry - will the players be happy?

He didn't use the style of football though, it was all about managers being paid. As I said earlier what a hypocrite

Il watch closely how the team you follow in Division 1 sets up on Sunday, hopefully it isn't unwatchable dirge but its more than likely going to be

The man took Louth from Div 4 to on the brink of Div 1 and got them to a Leinster final,
He is a winner, don't think Derry could have done much better.

Don't think Derry supporters will care if they come up the road with Sam if it was pretty or not.

Do we really have a shortage of referees in Antrim? Brendan Toland reffing two semi finals in two days?? What is the process for appointing refs and is Toland not involved in doing so?

No is t

Do we really have a shortage of referees in Antrim? Brendan Toland reffing two semi finals in two days?? What is the process for appointing refs and is Toland not involved in doing so?

No is the simple answer to that one, there are 4 people that do the organising of games at all county level in juvenile and senior. He does not look after football.

But yes, we have a shortage of referees, all welcome   new course starting in Jan

Bannside is very quiet the nerves must be kicking in now 

[bannside]

Dunloy are formidable opposition, but I'd be optimistic that PG1 can make the final. No point in taking any other viewpoint Lar. Some great matches in store.
