Just seen it a poor error that cost his team the three points.  Not to worry a small speed bump for the Champions elect.

Quote from: imtommygunn on December 03, 2024, 12:42:57 PMYeah I wouldn't be a fan at all tbh. I think a party like SF who have a clear goal of uniting Ireland need someone passionate about that cause rather than someone who is in reality a careerist.

I think they have done well enough that a leadership change is unlikely.

As leader Mary Lou has taken them as far as she can and secured the same amount of seats in the last two Elections. For the  2028 election they'll probably need a leader with a bit more charisma, Pearse Doherty next in line to take over if Mary Lou steps down?  don't think he has the necessary charisma either.

Time for Liverpool supporters such as Jcpen to book the last weekend of May flights and accommodation to Liverpool to see their team pick up the league title for the first time in front of a crowd in Anfield since 1990.

You are as boring as my Uncle Jerry, and by christ he would bore you to tears, hats off

I'd encourage you and Trueblue1234 to make the trip over to Liverpool that weekend with Jcpen. Shouldn't bore you even if you probably have to take turns to hold his hand as you wouldn't want that fragile chap to get lost.

Quote from: From the Bunker on November 30, 2024, 08:16:15 PMYes, Arsenal have proven themselves to be a consistent top team. It's not easy to be a top team and do this over a couple of years. There are a lot of clubs who have spent more money than them who can only dream of their consistency.

Any consistent top team needs to be winning trophies and even most Arsenal supporters will admit now is the the time to deliver and not end another season trophyless. Won't win the league (Liverpool unlikely to slip up) still domestic and European cup to win so long as Liverpool take the eye off the ball in any of those competitions.

How much would RTE have talked up that Leinster final if it was played with the new rules tonight?

For a 3rd season in a row Arsenal on course for 2nd place finish. 5-2 winners tonight with match won and all goals scored in the first half. Liverpool could well do the same tomorrow when playing Manchester City at home at the perfect time.

This will be 10th Dublin team to win the Leinster title in the last 12 finals not much different than senior county level.

Quote from: Armagh18 on November 30, 2024, 05:18:18 PMMaybe 1 or 2 changes would have been ok, but this is now a different sport.

Hope to see a few county boards stick the middle finger up and keep the old rules.

HQ didn't like little Armagh winning the All Ireland.  They weren't in any rush to make such "radical" changes when Dublin was in the middle of winning 6 in a row.

Shortest odds I've seen to win quadruple in November. Could give Manchester City awful trimming on Sunday. When Sporting, Tottenham can score four goals against Pep Guardiola team how many will Liverpool score 🤔
Yeah that's not how football works...

If you say so.

The slide for Manchester City continues, letting a 3 goal lead slip and only drawing at home with Feyenoord.  No excuse for Liverpool not to beat Manchester City on Sunday and to win comfortably.

Elsewhere Arsenal took full advantage of a Sporting team that lost their manager.

First Tyrone team into a Ulster senior club final for a decade and rode their luck against a 14 man team for the last 24 minutes.
