How is Aidan O'Shea still on the pitch?? Shocking.

Omagh beat Dungannon in the McGrath semi today, into another final..... jet

Omagh is the strongest at that age group.  The play a decent Abbey team in the final but they'd be expected to win.

CBS 5-18 Abbey 0-10

Martin Clarke and Michael Murphy must be the two best MacRory/schools players there have been for a long time. Their longevity and performances in the competitions were sublime.

I think you are showing your age somewhat here.

As does div 2 and 3

Not the case.

Anyone know where I'd be able to purchase umpire jackets? Thanks.

f**k, that's tragic if true. Just when his lad is bursting on to the scene as a top level footballer.

Joe had been in very poor health for a good while. Was mighty company.

Omagh just about get over the line again and didn't play particularly well. Magherafelt missed a few goal chances that came back to haunt them in the end. Although 3 points down around the 60 minutes mark and everyone behind the ball maybe they didn't deserve anything from the game.

[1 Derry in the Semifinals. Maghera]

Donaghmore giving Abbey a bit of a trimming so far. 4-7 to 0-3 at HT

Ended up about 5-10 to 1-6. Huge gap between the two teams. Poor enough floodlights for a night match. You'd expect both CBS Omagh and Academy Dungannon to win their quarter finals to leave 3 Tyrone teams and 1 Derry in the Semifinals. Maghera or CBS for outright honours.

There will be nothing straight forward for Maghera against Magherafelt tonight. McDermott a massive loss for Maghera.

Good call. CBS fell over the line against Blayney after being 8 up.

So Donegal played an ineligible player?

Yes and it's either through complete ignorance or a case of sticking two fingers up at the rules. Derry had to withdraw Callum Brown from the starting line up a few years ago for the exact same reason.

Didn't he do the same a few years ago when a Limerick won the all Ireland, 2018 ? Maybe it wasn't a million each

It was 100k then.

Did that Clogher/Ballygawley team play in the Tyrone league or championship?

No

Cúchulainn an Ghleanna fielded a Senior team in the Cuchulainn League. So that's the fifth Adult team in Tyrone.

Underage teams, open to correction on these.
Cappagh - Killyclogher
Naomh Columcille - Clonoe/Coalisland
Duiche Neill - Benburb Area
Fintona
Cúchulainn an Ghleanna - Clogher Valley/Ballygawley
Tulach Óg - Cookstown Area
Omagh
Éire Óg - Carrickmore
Eoghan Ruadh - Dungannon
Strabane Shamrocks

I think you lads haven't dealt with big budget public bodies trying to even get a new school built, total overkill in governance which puts the cost through the roof. Governance wise the time frame between awarding the contract and start date exceeds any good governance in law, and I can't see how's it legal. If a contract was awarded for £77 million, and now I estimate about about £120-130million, The increase in difference is such that it must be retendered. That's basically a law for good governance involving public money. I can't see how this is any difference, and a fast track tendering process is a year alone.

You're completely wrong on this. Ulster GAA issued a VEAT notice in Mid July and outlined why the project would not be retendered and the justification for that.

Trying to work out how it bypasses Sion?  Along the river at strabane crossing the urney Rd at some point? Is it a new road between the glebe and sion then?

That's a pretty useful interactive map of the route.
