It's all over. The long distance relationship was too far for them. Joe's letters and phone calls became less and less frequent, so they both decided to call it a day.

That's a fair enough point passedit. Greencastle wouldn't really have the same problems has clubs from bigger towns and cities.

I would say you would be best contacting the BBC is highlighting this with them. Not in a "why us" fashion, but just to say it was very unbalanced and makes it difficult for your club and other clubs to promote themselves.

I hate to break it to you lads, but you're getting as bad as the OWCers and their "Fight back thread"

I really couldn't give to flying f**ks what Noel said about the game. It doesn't affect what I think of the game, what other gaa think of the game and any sensible non-gaa fan thinks of the game.

Well said wobbler

We are all getting tarred with the one brush, by the actions of a few.

A total of fifty players will be in the running for Tyrone GAA All-Star awards at the third annual Teamtalk Magazine Gala Banquet in the Great Northern Hotel in Bundoran on Friday 8th December.

Following weeks of voting, the list of contenders for places on the 2006 All-Star club football team has been whittled down to fifty names representing 22 different clubs.

The players shortlisted will be present at the banquet for the announcement of the 2006 Tyrone All-Star team as well as the senior, intermediate and junior footballer of the year award winners.

A selection of the nominees will also be in contention for the 'young club footballer of the year' and 'young achiever of the year' awards.

County champions Errigal Ciaran have seven players included on the shortlist for the All-Star team, while county finalists Carrickmore and newly crowned league champions Dromore each have five nominees.

Senior championship semi-finalists Coalisland and league runners-up Donaghmore both have three representatives on the nominees list, as do intermediate champions Stewartstown.

Ardboe, Omagh, Strabane and five clubs who earned promotion in 2006 - Galbally, Killeeshil, Derrylaughan, Greencastle and Brocagh – all have two names in contention for All-Star awards. And a further eight clubs have one player in the running for an award.

The list of fifty nominees includes five players who won an All-Star award for the first time last year – Ciaran McAleer, Cormac McGinley, Paul Quinn, Des Tracey and Justin McMahon – and three players who were members of the inaugural team two years ago, namely Ronan McGarrity, Gabriel McCallan and Fabian O'Neill.

Carrickmore goalkeeper Plunkett McCallan has actually made the team in each of the last two years and is in contention for a third successive All-Star award.

The latest list of All-Star nominees has been compiled from the huge number of votes submitted by clubs, journalists and the general public over the last six weeks. Another round of voting for both the team and individual awards is now underway and the final deadline is Friday 1st December.

Votes can be e-mailed to editor@teamtalkmag.com, posted to Teamtalk Magazine (51 Gortin Road, Omagh, BT79 7HZ), or phoned in to 02882251590.

There is a limited number of tickets still available for the All-Star Gala Banquet on 8th December. To apply for tickets please contact Edele as soon as possible by telephone or e-mail (edele@thegame.ie)

[Home and Away star dies of cancer]

I know we shouldn't speak of Home and Away, and normally I wouldn't.

However, with the death of Belina Emmett (Rebecca Fisher) last night, after all long battle with Cancer. I wanted to pay my respects. Rest In Peace Belinda.

Home and Away star dies of cancer  

Emmett played Rebecca Fisher, later Nash, from 1996 to 1999

Australian actress Belinda Emmett, who starred as Rebecca Fisher in Home and Away, has died after battling cancer.
The 32-year-old was diagnosed with breast cancer in 1998 and left the soap opera while undergoing treatment.

She died in a Sydney hospital on Saturday surrounded by her family, including talk show host Rove McManus, whom she married last year.

Australian Prime Minister John Howard led tributes to the actress, saying: "She fought a very courageous battle".

Emmett's diagnosis came at the height of her fame in Australia.

She went into remission following surgery to remove a malignant tumour and a course of radiotherapy in 1998.

She returned to television, playing nurse Jodi Horner in the Australian TV drama All Saints, but was diagnosed with secondary bone cancer in 2001.

Distraught

Emmett's last television appearance was with husband McManus on an ABC television Christmas Special, in December 2005.

McManus posted a message on his website telling fans he was too distraught to return to his celebrity chat show for the time being.

"This is a very difficult period for all of us and some time away is the best thing for me right now," he wrote.

"In the meantime I want to extend my sincerest thanks for all of your heartfelt messages and condolences.

"That Belinda meant so much to so many people, genuinely means a lot to me."

"It is with great sadness we advise that Belinda Emmett's battle with cancer has ended," her family said in a statement.

"Those close to her have requested respect for their privacy at this time."

Bud, calm yourself down.

We like football. We want to talk about football. This is, in part, a football websie. We talk about football here. What is the problem?

So we can't talk about club football.

Each county talk has one thread, never to expand!!

So, in theory, we can only have 63 threads. Or do hurlings and football talk go into one? Then that leaves only 31 threads.

Bit of a shit board ain't it.

ziggysego, I am not sure where your game will be next weekend but watch out for the big Drumhowan full forward James McElroy...he is their dangerman.  It is hard to judge just how good this Drumhowan side is.  Everything they kicked today went over for them but, with a little bit of luck, An Port Mor could have come out on top.  They have a sound midfield and very lively attack but can be vulnerable in defence when run at.  Check out my match report above!

That was some win for Greencastle today.  I reckon you can get the better of those Monaghan boys in the semi-finals.  Good luck.  It is great to see the three Tyrone teams still alive and kicking in the Ulster Championship!

I've heard the game will be in Lisanskea (sp?)

Thanks for the warning of McElroy. I'll let the management know and hopefully we'll be ready for them.

It was a great win for Greencastle today. My wee brother has taken great delight in knowing he is the first person for Greencastle, to score in a Ulster Championship match ever!

However, the results may have flattered us too much. Ardoyne, from what I hear, is primarily a hurling club, so there wasn't much competition for us today. Sorry if anyone from Ardoyne uses this board. I fear that this could in turn, turn out to be a bad start for Greencastle. That said, I'm sure Teague will keep their feets firmly on the ground.

Oh, I never posted the results did I!

Greencastle 0-21
Ardoyne 0-03

Working on the website at the moment, so hopefully the pictures will be up tonight.
