FBD 2024

[Syferus]

We're afraid we might wind up Syfín too much talking about his favourite Rhubarbs in his favourite Kiltoom.
We'll probably lose but not by enough to avoid the final.

Must have killed you a little inside that the national anthem was sung by a Brigids girl.

I came across this recipe when I was doing research for my Irish Traditional Cookbook, a friend from Strokestown in Co. Roscommon told me how his mother remembered how her grandmother would strew the base of the bastible (a pot oven) with chopped rhubarb, sweeten it with a sprinkling of sugar and cover it with an enriched bread dough.  When the cake was fully baked in the pot over the open fire, it was turned out so that it landed upside down, with the sweet juice soaking into the soft golden crust.  It was served warm with soft brown sugar and lots of softly whipped cream.

Congratulations to Andy Moran on winning the All-Ireland.

Congratulations to Andy Moran on winning the All-Ireland.

Yes, the whole of Mayo are out of their minds with drink, bonfires lit from Ballagh to Glencorrib. What a joyous win.
Well actually, it has raised a nice chuckle in fairness :-)

2-16 scored in 60 minutes is good going v Mayo. Roscommon would be a decent team if they ever learn the basics of defending. Structure and the right system in place would work wonders for even the most average Roscommon defenders.

Sligo beat Leitrim 2-13 to 0-16 in the other FBD game today.

Is this new? Mayo  scoring goals in the last few minutes.

Great to see the joy on Andys face as he kissed the crest on his jersey and gave a huge fist pump after scoring the winning goal It is like doing a lap of honour after winning the toss.

As unimportant as it was, it clearly it upset you when you felt the need to comment on it!

Apparently the Rossie supporters were being their usual gracious, sporting selves.
The Mayo sideline had that in their ear all afternoon which probably riled up Andy - fair play to him. Nice way of shutting them up :-)

The celebrations and crest kissing were mentioned by the RTE reporter doing the post game wrap up on Sunday Sport too. (Pauric Lodge, maybe?) So it definitely made a impression, no mater where you were from.

First time I ever saw a penalty given for a lad tripping himself up
