Since COVID though it is beyond ridiculous. It used to be tough getting home but now it can be hard even getting out.

Not sure in your two reasons. I could list a few though.

I don't know about anywhere else but Belfast suffers a lot due to a lack of taxis. I have had a lot of bother a good few times getting taxis.

I saw him recently out an about somewhere and wondered the same. It did look like the world was his oyster. He  hosted an event I was at one night years ago and he was some speaker.

Coverage was very good. Niblock's good, Harte a good addition to it and sarah mulkerrins is very good as well. Much better than some of the stuff you would see on RTE.

Monaghan are missing beggan, Kieran hughes is retired, McManus is being used sparingly due to hip issues and a fella is away to Aussie rules I think.

I do think rates in Belfast are extortionate too so that is a factor. I don't think running a pub, especially these days, is as profitable as people think.

Ah yes covid year.

Basically for roscommon, and anyone else, to get to the semi final they need to avoid derry, dublin and kerry in any knock out match. They then probably need to meet someone of comparable level in the knockout to get through. Tyrone, Mayo, Galway, possibly Donegal and Armagh would likely be too much.

Monaghan aren't quite top four but they'd Beggan and McManus there and with McManus especially they always had a chance. They were (not are mind you) closer to top four than Roscommon ever were tbh.

It also depends on your draw but it isn't a failure for Roscommon to not get to a semi final. They're top 8ish. It would take quite a run of luck to get there. It just reads that they're a failure when I don't think they are at all.

I can't recall exactly who Tipp beat to get there for them to merit an asterix...

They're not a top four team is what's stopping them getting to a semi final. They are a decent side tbf to them but just not quite that level. It's not a failure.

I don't think there's around 10 at all. There's probably 8 but if donegal hadn't stepped up there'd be 7.

The GAA has got a huge problem with the hurling and football leagues as in you can't trust what you are watching. Managers pick games over others to prioritise. So much of this years league has been fake and supporters won't stay paying high admission prices for it.

Easy solution, let the masses, teams etc get on with the leagues, and Shane and yourself can switch off until the Championship starts? 
I still like the league but I don't think it reflects football reality.

You give off an awful lot about it for someone who likes it. The lower divisions reflect the reality a lot more.

Galway full out not going to happen though. They're miles away at the minute.
