McGeady is frustrating but without his goals in Georgia we wouldn't even be competing in this group.   Brady was poor and I expected more from his dead balls but much better than ward. Fair play to James McClean. His challenge lifted the whole thing. Pity there weren't more like him. Not sure how hoolahan got motm as he seemed to give the ball away alot

If Tyrone win by a point it makes the scoring difference the same. Two point win and Tyrone are better off. Forget about the other game, two point win and we're save

By my reckoning, Tyrones scoring diff is -14, Kerrys -12. A 2 pt win would take Tyrone above Kerry. Problem arises if there are three teams in there on 6 points. Not sure what happens then. Not a very encouraging performance for the championship.

Santi claus got me 4 irish sporting books which I've just finished.
Brian O'Driscoll - not bad although you get the feeling he could have said alot more.
Jim Stynes - good read but focuses more on his cancer suffering than aussie rules career. What did I expect I suppose
Roy Keane - interesting reading about his Sunderland and Ipswich days.
Paul Galvin - excellent but would have liked some detail on the big games v Tyrone

Toure getting applauded off. Some footballer but a embarrassment tonight. The very least you expect from a professional is effort which he did not give. He wasn't alone either. They'll tank some team at the weekend and all will be forgotten. Joke

I think todays game was decided by the referees interpretation of the rules. While he was poor for both sides I don't think I've ever seen poc questioning a referee in such a way during the game.  It does no harm losing before the wc and if we can work on try scoring between now and then while keeping everything else as is we'll be doing ok. Proud of the effort today but it just wasn't to be

Just like man city the other week at home.  Very poor and with an extra man for about 90 mins. Joke.  Best about it, I'd be very surprised if psg were to win it.

Alot of sf bashing going on here. Seems that the shinners were chasing the dupers for weeks trying to find out the details. The dupers were trying to pull a fly one and push through their own proposals. Seems it would have been very easy for sf to let it go as they had already stood up to the dupers on this. Thankfully they didn't and here we are.
I'm no expert but this is how I see things

Does it really matter if he touched it or not. He occupied defenders who otherwise could have been pushed up the field.  Not to worry though as we got there in the end. Just a pity for some of the players from that team

I can't imagine tom Elliott or any of his mates going to play in the park so what's the problem.  Similarly I don't think too many nationalists would be upset by the names of parks in loyalist areas. Mountain out of a mole hill

Absolutely delighted for Harrington. Think that's two wins in a few weeks although this is much more prestigious. Would be great to see him back competing regularly at the top table

My only worry is, have we been here before in the last few seasons. Not sure if we're seeing any definite signs of improvement in any area of the field. Maybe it'll come in the next few games under better conditions

At the same time two draws is the same as a win and a defeat so not all bad
#1619
I know Tyrone aren't very convincing but tough to read anything into those conditions at the same time. Is the point any use?

Just subscribed there but don't think I got that deal. £9.99 plus £5 set up. Unless I've missed something
