Armagh v Derry - Ulster Final, 14th May, 2023 @ 4pm

I've been told on very good authority that there will be  a statement tomorrow and Rory Gallagher will step down

Maybe the players can all come out in t shirts and support him a la Liverpool and Suarez, or they could keep him in the squad and get him sponsored, a la the Watty's and McFaul.

Glen making a symbolic gesture to a squad member who has been a massive part of what they've achieved over the years in both underage and senior hardly that big of a deal. Don't really see the need for cheap shots on it tbh.

Sure what else would you expect

The statement of the ex wife was very structured. There was enough detail. She mentioned a confidante. It wasn't too long.
  There was no rambling or ranting. It was fact driven. The emotion was controlled. the impact was strong. Especially the 2 fingers in the ribs.
It was issued on  the Wednesday rather than the Saturday, giving things time to percolate.
There is obviously more to come.

This is about the power dynamic between him and her. She had to do a lot of work to get to the point where she could write that post.

Mmm, I'm not sure I would have wanted my Club to defend that given the background to the case in question

Derry not looking good in all this. Slow response helps no one.

Derry GAA really do need to get ahead of this. By sitting on their hands they look really poor.

I'm afraid not. All the clubs had to write and an original song and we have we have been running a Eurovision style competition since we lost our heads after beating Tyrone last year. The competition concluded this week and I believe the county board were strongly influenced by the decision of the winning team to use professional actors in the video. This has caused consternation within the county as most clubs legitimately considered this to be a song writing competition.

RG has issued a statement. Got it as WhatsApp but can't copy and paste to here.
Any more tech savy posters able to do so?

Fairly strong rebuttal of her allegations.

[Harold Disgracey]

This is the WhatsApp message doing the rounds.

"I have been made aware of a social media post by my estranged wife Nicola Gallagher in which she has made a number of very serious allegations against me.
"Our marriage broke down over 4 years ago. Those closest to our family are well aware of the reasons for the breakdown of our marriage and the continued issues we have faced since that time.
"Following long running court proceedings in Family Courts in both jurisdictions, I was granted a full Residence Order in respect of our 3 young children on 17th February 2023. This outcome was recommended by social services.
"Allegations against me have been investigated and dealt with by the relevant authorities.
"My focus over the past 4 years has been to protect our children from the ongoing turmoil in our family.
"I have left this matter in the hands of my legal team and ask that the privacy of our family is respected at this time. I will not be making any further public comment on this matter."

Thanks Harold. That's the one.

Looks like he's going to tough it out.

Would not want to be a member of Derry county board today!
People asking for tickets would be the least of your problems.
