Maybe the whole lot are paranoid as f**k, but I have never exerienced such hospitality as I did yesterday in Omagh. Fair dues to the Tyrone crowd.  :)

The results are in

No  8 (40%)
A bit  3 (15%)

Its fair to say that the nordies are a bit paranoid, even going by some of the responses. However is it justified? i will now start a poll on that. I don't think it is in any shape or form, the actions of Mickey Harte blaming "Live TV" is embarrassing and cringe worthy.  Us boyo's in Connacht have slightly more reasons to feel discriminated against.

Why does it seem to me that all Nordies on GAA message boards are deeply paranoid about bans, southern media etc. Its not the case when we meet up with our Northern brothers at GAA matches up and down the country, in fact there sound great craic. But on the message boards they seem very bitter. One look at the TITS thread will show that the nordies especially the Tyrone ones genuinely think there is a big conspiracy against them. So what is it lads do you think we're all out to get you or something?

Well in fairness, The consultant Engineers have a lot to answer for. I used to work for them about 6 years back, they weren't up to much then, they dont seem to be up to much now. McHale park needed to be renovated though. Better then nothing! A forum HS reader and occasional user here but got fed up of all the WUMS, this place seems to have all the intelligent debate!

Welcome Peter STG. These are trying times, all around. There s a whole load of explanation needed from the consultants, planners etc. The board men, while autocratic and self serving, hardly concieved and completed this sad project on their own - did they?

Heads need to roll for this. This pile of shite is going to be a milestone around clubs for years. In fact it s already turning good people away from getting involved at executive level in clubs. Even last year senior board men were laying down the law in meetings with clubs about meeting targets. They could have presented a job you could be proud of selling. How can anybody sell this pile when a lot of people are struggling as it is.

You must be related to the man or from Islandeady.

It was an exciting project initially but a right arse has been made of it. A far out Relation of the great man himself, but unfortunatlely i didnt inherit his skill, A bit of junior B football is all i'm fit for these days, i'd say he'd be turning in his grave if he knew one of his desendants played for the covies!
