The €10 was worth giving to GAAGO just to see Clifford.

Thanks BennyHarp - Thought both the senior and minor finals stopped on GAAGO in GB, only the senior game. Cheers

Gaels - How would I go about watching the All Ireland Minor Final from London? TG4 is stream in Ireland only? Not on Sky. Or do I just walk to the pub. Thanks

Is there anywhere you can buy retro jerseys these days? The old Derry jerseys hold a lot better memories 

U-12 getting a lift up up to the field on the back of a TVO Link box, we used to wait at the chip shop for a lift up. Battered sausage on route for the big game.

Do the better horses go to Goodwood? Which holds better  prize €€€/£££

It was no better last year.
Only gets going at quarter final stage, the same as every other cup competition in sport.

Conor McGregor vs. Dustin Poirier set for UFC 178..........thoughts?

Is it just me or is anyone else finding the Football Championship quite dull this year? (Maybe its just the fact Derry were put out so early)

I always believed that in the 70's UN troops should have been placed on the ground in the 6 counties. I know this was put forward (with some involvement from the late Ted Kennedy) but vetoed by the British on the security council.

I presume that the Israels have also playing the domestic policy card? Has there ever been an attempt to put UN troops on the ground there. Apologies for my ignorance.

You can't get it on BBC or RTE if your outside of Ireland and I'm fed up paying €10 a game on GAAGO, therefore that's the people that need a link.

Don't be such a tightwad and stop trying to ask people on a GAA forum how to rip off the GAA.

I don't know were to start with this one. Is it pumped or stuffed? For those who watch multiple GAA games at the weekend.

Simple Math
3 games this weekend = Paid €30 is it value? Who's doing the ripping off?
UFC Fight Night watched 6 fights for €6

GAAGO, €110 for a year. Why would you pay €10 for every match?

TV licence + Sky Sports + €110

Sure when you buy it half the games aren't on it, just pops up with this.

"ALERT

YOUR IP ADDRESS TELLS US YOU'RE IN: UK

THIS GAME IS AVAILABLE TO VIEW IN ALL COUNTRIES EXCEPT: Republic of Ireland, UK including Northern Ireland"

Therefore you need Sky Sports & €110 GAAGO....

Yeah has anyone a link?

Who needs a link, it is on BBC, RTÉ and GAAGo!!

Monaghan defending well, but getting nothing out of long balls to double/triple marked forwards. That last point was an excellent turnover followed by a dodgy free. Donegal better balanced.

Match online anywhere?

[very few unionist/loyalist/oo live in the region]

Good column by Alex Kane in Irish News yesterday about need to turn a blind eye to things like parades etc that you don't like or currently get wound up by.And an excellent column by Rev Brian Kenneway, a former Orange Chaplain, in Belfast Telegraph about differences in Belfast and rural parades which allows major parades to be held in republican hotbeds like Newtonhamilton without any hint of trouble.

Instead of the current furore over parades, bonfire effigies and posters etc,I am of the opinion that if these issues were completely ignored by nationalists everywhere (including N Belfast and Drumcree) their frequency and publicity would reduce dramatically.

The orange parade in Dungiven a month or so ago imo proves that.
there has never been a loyalist/unionist/oo parade that I have heard about before through this republican/nationalist town - very few unionist/loyalist/oo live in the region let alone in the town.

Plenty in Limavady and surrounding areas - only up the road!

I say let them march, if there's no contention, or if agreement/accommodation can be made then let them at it.

When this country's eventually united I'll let them march round my back garden for all I care.

theres fcuk all of them in the immediate vicinity - that's the problem, its not up the road!
they can trot around limavady or coleraine all day long if they like, but they wanted to provoke local nationalist people by tramping around where they were not wanted. objections to parade were ignored.
locals did behave in a dignified manner- which prob pssed off the oo

the same 'croppy lie down' mentality is prevalent and remains with these oo/unionist/loyalist provokers.

I think in Limavady its just a lost cause and I feel the local Catholic community are completely undermined. The Bands stopped outside St Mary's Limavady this summer yet again to play the Sash during 7pm Mass while I was in attendance, its now 2014.
