I've a friend who acted as physio for St Bridgid's senior team a couple of years back but if that's the Naomh Brid that you're from, you prob know her.  Based in Northside though.

Will the All Stars trip have any effect on the Tyrone crew?  I think they're due back around 29 Jan, just a few days before the game.

Then call the thread something other than "Tyone (sic) football" so that we don't go in looking for an interesting Tyrone football story!

Well done Armagh must be very proud of you and your elk.

You have an elk?  Didn't realise you were a strange animal lover Uladh.

Sorry, couldn't resist, it made me laugh 

Having received a legal opinion (and not Fergal Logan's by the way!), Mickey Harte was advised that playing the Tyrone Four was not against the written rules, but against the spirit of the competition.  He ignored the "spirit" comment.

Norf, tell me, what are the chances of getting club tickets for Tyrone/Dublin?  Texted my dad earlier but no response as yet.

I think that a Donegal  - Tyrone final is on the cards again.
We'll stop all this talk of 4 in a row...! 

Bring it on, cause I didn't see too much yesterday that would worry Tyrone!  At least the midget jokes could be transferred to Donegal instead - Roper and Leon Thompson are certainly very small for county players.

Who was the young number 24 for Antrim yesterday - didn't have a team list so couldn't tell, but I thought he was particularly wasteful and anxious looking.

Maybe that was the case Slim but since ya weren't there, you couldn't tell that for sure  

Thought the match at Casement was pretty crap yesterday to be honest.  The score stood at 6-5 for a large part of the second half, and only in about the last ten minutes did the excitement pick up.  Donegal looked a lot pacier than Antrim in the second half, though I'm sure a few months under Jody Gormely will help Antrim improve.  Antrim kept playing the ball behind them, seeming unprepared to take on the defenders.  Donegal were more willing to do so but not to great effect as a number of efforts went wide that should surely have gone over.

Just saw this on bbc and am wondering why it was necessary to report that he's a GAA player.  Presuming, of course, that the perceived crime has nothing to do with the fact that he is a member of the GAA. 

The road between Newry and Dundalk.  There is absolutely no reason why traffic should crawl at 40mph yet it always happens.

People who say they'll do something and then pull out at the last minute.

Men in women's clothing shops during busy periods who just follow their ladies around.

5 cent coins being copper in colour.

Possibly, but that's hardly a GAA matter.

 

...this is a former Ulster President who I would have assumed was unsalaried

But how do you know he hadn't some official function?  And even if the person doesn't work for them now, they can still get a pension from them.    Four thousand a year doesn't sound like much - sounds like the person worked for them for a few years only, if it's a pension in the true sense of the word.  Can you post the article?  Can't get my hands on a paper till lunch.
