Quote from: Captain Obvious on April 14, 2024, 06:31:13 PMCredit to Aston Villa a solid season for them and will fully deserve 4th place should they get it. A real shrewd appointment bringing in Emery and if he was given the same time with Arsenal as Arteta has got they could well have won a league title by now.

No chance.. Emerys good at that level, he's not going to win you a league. Football was brutal under him too

Zinchenko might be the worst left back Arsenal have had - give me Andre Santos any day.

Over at right back for the first goal leaving left back open for Bailey to tap in. Brutal

Quote from: mrdeeds on April 14, 2024, 03:58:53 PMIs it not more a case of high energy football, loads of games and injuries catching up on them?

Have they not a full squad to pick from?

No. Thiago and Matip out for season, five or six other players on way back. Did the likes of TAA and Jota look sharp to you after they came on?

Salah looks jaded. Endo has been off it the last few weeks.

Excuse FC

Quote from: Mourne Red on April 11, 2024, 09:40:18 PMKelleher has had a nightmare tonight

Mad singling out the keeper when those in front of him stunk the place out. Liverpool fans must realise tonight what it's like to be a Utd fan atm, the lack of effort from a good half dozen of them was shocking

I'm an Arsenal fan 😂

Quote from: johnnycool on April 09, 2024, 02:27:12 PMPotentially good news for Truth Hurts, East Down and Down in general;

https://www.irishnews.com/news/northern-ireland/councillors-overturn-decision-not-to-back-eu-funding-application-by-down-gaa-for-new-centre-of-excellence-AZVJTRKBYZF4BKUJLS2XERJZSQ/



Decidedly mixed feelings on this.


Short term, something is needed. Badly.
Medium term, its probably at a good price and on a sandy base to save some costs in drainage installation.
Long term, its a poor geographic location at the end of very bad roads.


Here is 17 acres of land just off the main Castlewellan Clough road.
Yeah, its ~£300k and you could probably fit in only 3 pitches. But in a ~£12m project, is 3% more worth it when your then located just off a main road slap bang in the (GAA) centroid of the county?


Its only a 25 year lease the county board have on the site. Amortised, thats ~£500k a year then the MoD could potentially pull the rug out from under you?

Near Castlewellan is a slightly better location, but how likely would it be to get planning permission there? Look at the access road for example. A lot of drama made about the road to Ballykinlar, which is an A road and 5mins from Clough (and 15mins from Castlewellan).

It's 'A' shite road

Quote from: Caitlin on April 05, 2024, 09:12:18 AMDid Darragh Cross win their appeal to the DRA? What division will they play in ?

They're in Div 4 according to the fixtures out for Friday night.

Think they lost the appeal - Dundrum and Drraghcross advertising the game for tonight

Quote from: jcpen on April 05, 2024, 09:32:09 AMWhat if any supplements and or vitamins are you taking?
Is it worth taking stuff like Omega 3, glucosamine, magnesium etc?

Magnesium, Vitamin D and then protein too. Majority of us have a Mag/Vit D deficiency so I used supplements to get my daily intake of those, been on it past 6 months I'd say its helped me. Protein as recovery from Training/Gym and helps with satiation (keeps you full) so helps keep the snacking at bay.

Creatine good too from research I've read - I can't take it though, found it gives me a headache for whatever reason

Quote from: toby47 on March 27, 2024, 09:08:24 AMStars aligning for Arsenal. Walker & Stones both injured...

They'll be fit to play against Arsenal, wouldn't be surprised to see Ederson between the sticks too

Quote from: Truth hurts on March 21, 2024, 08:35:25 AMA good point for the u20s.Clare women travel to Teconnaught on Sunday at 2 pm. Clare men travel to Newry on Sunday at 2 pm. Why can't this be a doubleheader?



Last game in both leagues.. All need to kick off/finish at the same time so no match fixing etc.

Been this way for years can't bash GAA/LGFA on this one
