Quote from: onefineday on April 15, 2024, 12:52:58 AMQuote from: AustinPowers on April 14, 2024, 10:25:07 PMPaul Flynn says the likes of Meath and Kildare more or less need to get the finger out if they want to be competitive
Aye and a few million quid!
But nobody seemed to address that bit on TSG
The Derry county board is notoriously tight fisted, yet have managed to navigate a path to competitiveness.
Meath and Kildare have no excuses for failing to put up a fight to Dublin.
They have more than adequate playing populations, I imagine in the top 10 at worst?
They have facilities aplenty and aren't faced with the issues that many counties have trying to get players down from Dublin for training.
So even if that argument around funds being pumped into Dublin creating this situation had some validity (it doesn't in my experience), it still would not account for the inability of another Leinster team to field 15 players able to compete with 15 dubs at senior level every once in a while.....

Fermanagh had their chances of goals but either miskicked, took the wrong option or just messed it up.
Armagh deserved winners - but goals aside, they didn't look overly impressive.
Missed a lot of frees. Didnt look fluid, should have scored more points from play given the way Fermanagh just kind of stopped. If I was from Armagh I'd be worried enough.
Jarly Og lucky to stay on the pitch imo.
Goals aside...not impressive (they won by over 10 points)
If you were from Armagh what would you be worried about? Down...seriously? Do you think their "supporters " will stay on beyond half time.. unlike last year.
Derry...of course we'd be worried..they're a top 3 team standing between us and a first Ulster title in nearly 20 years...and they've improved since last year.
Was Jarly's the only bad tackle in the game?

Jarly Og is one of the least aggressive players on the Armagh squad so I'd be very surprised if there was any intent there. A yellow card was fair in that instance.

There are more places out there than gaaboard.comQuote from: jcpen on September 17, 2023, 08:01:13 AMIt's a funny one when you get used to seeing names on forums only for them to disappear and you never see them again. Did they die? Have they just decided to stop posting and move on.? Who knows. We are all just names on a forum and no one has a clue about our real life outside of the internet.
Who were you getting use to seeing for one that just signed up on here in January or did your last account disappear?
Lar Naparka,5 Sams and most recently Farrandeelin have all died and this place is a poorer place without their knowledge,wit and humour
Quote from: Norm-Peterson on April 10, 2024, 03:18:50 PMI think I deserve life long access to Derry v Donegal tickets. For the sole reason that I was in Clones in 2002 when Derry played Donegal during the World Cup.
It would be interesting to know if the people who call men like me "bandwagoners" where at that game? They complain yet they were probably sitting at home watching the ROI v Spain game that day.

Any examples of when other Ulster teams didn't go all out to win Ulster and as a direct result they won an AI?
In the second year if the current competition?
Harte and the players?
"A couple of years we were of the mindset that we were going to win the All-Ireland and were beaten in the first round. It didn't do us any harm. We went on to win it from there twice."

A quote from Sean Cavanagh today funny enough.

Ridiculous decision, they were dying to give it to Beggan simply due to the fact that he got an NFL trial.

The Authors base their case for starters on an assumption that they know the amount of UK subvention into NI every Year,which is news to anyone versed in these matters as the UK government has never stated an exact total or given an exact breakdown
They then assume that a UI would need to match the current NI contribution to a UK defence Budget,(no thanks Lads,We wont be paying for Trident or Aircraft Carriers)or continue to pay a pro rata portion of UK Debt AFTER NI had left the UK or that the UK would reneage on pension contributions by NI workers paid into the UK pension pot when NI was part of the Uk.
Those 3 areas alone come to anywhere between £5 and £7 bn per annum.
it also assumes that growth rates and productivity are stuck to the floor over the next 20 years, takes no account of the savings or synergy brought about by an All Island Economy and takes no account of inputs from the likes of the EU or FDI going into the 6 counties at 26 counties levels.
This is the type of scrutiny that should be published in the media, but it doesn't make a good headline.
I know for a fact, there are quite a few large multi-national's investing in setting up offices and expanding existing operations in NI as a direct result of Brexit and the finalising of the Windsor agreement. An NI business in Finance/Captial Markets and IT has access to GB and EU markets whilst taking advantage of generally lower salaries and operating costs than in GB and ROI. We're talking high value jobs being created here and the impact of those jobs on the NI economy remain to be seen.
But I don't hear anyone in the media talking about that.
Doesn't the Framework/Protocol, dual access thingy, only apply to goods, not services??
