It bores the balls off me tbh. It doesn't matter who wins it.

So why are you even on this thread if it bores you so much?

Because I can if I want to and secondly so that I can annoy lúders .....

So, anyone not agreeing with you that the Sigerson is shit is a "lúder"? 

No.
I would have thought that a Kerryman would be cute enough to see who I mean.

[North becoming part of the Republic]

Well as far as a United Ireland ...... If Ireland had a referendum about the North becoming part of the Republic  

I think we can take it as read that there will be a different set up entirely when/if an All Ireland State comes about.

No.
Didn't Des Foley of Dublin win both on the one day once??

I suspect the Connacht lads decided to give it a right go this time for a change and to end the long gap since 1969.
Or maybe it's the effect of the black cardeen

So the concensus from North of the pig's ditch is that Ulster played very badly and that a lot of them were tired.
Does it ever occur to them bies that maybe just maybe that there are a lot of good footballers in Connacht who played well and won the game pulling up.
I suppose that doesn't fit the stereotype though.

Threads like this our most famous son Dermot Earley will nearly always get our only mention, fair fcuks to Lar,Rosfan for giving O'Malley a mention but its a shame the likes of Aidan Brady,Harry Keegan,Pat Lindsay,Danny Murray,Gerry Connellan,Eamonn Boland,Jimmy Murray,Tony McManus,Bill Carlos,Phelim Murray etc get ignored even though all were outstanding footballers.

Keegan was mentioned only days ago in a similar thread and O'Malley is hardly an obscure figure in GAA lore, Ross.

See no mention of Francie in the above either..

Where does it say team in that y'eejitín

[Dougan]

Always thought Derek Dougan was a very good roscommon player, or was the long range point against mayo in the 91 final the reason i remember so much when thinking of roscommon players, still have that game on tape, might point

Derek Dougan was a soccer player.
Derek Duggan was a Ros player who was magic at 19 but injuries and playing on poor teams meant he faded away.
As for Francheen Grehan being in the running for best ever Ros player - even for Syfín that's some sh1te.
( don't take it personally Freddie- I always admired your spirit -but let's have realism)

€10 for D3 games with no discount if bought in advance.
However you can go to any part of the ground and most grounds have enough cover/seats for the average D3 crowds.

A good kick in the hole for Ulster arrogance and love of the Railway Cup yesterday bies 
The 600 attendance tells its own story about the relevance of this tourney.
If it's to be kept for the elite players ( funny how the anti GPA/IR Brigade never pick on the RC as being elitist) why not play it over a weekend all in the same location - 2 semis Saturday and the final on a Sunday.
Last weekend in January might be a good time.

??

Any reason why it shouldn't be this weekend?

No NFL games this weekend ( obv other than this one) . Resume next weekend.

Taking my cue from the title of the thread - O'Malley was a much better footballer than Dermot. FULL STOP Gasúinín.
Now have your batheen and go to bed.

Yeah, we have to accept that.
And I didn't go for it so there's no point whinging about someone else getting it.

Anyway, what about the motions passed? U16s not allowed to play for county minors the biggest talking point. Fair enough, I suppose. Young lads playing a lot at that age.

I'd expect the next move will be to make Minors ineligible for U21 or Senior at County level.

Hope you enjoy it.
Why is this fixture on this weekend I wonder?
