Wonder will mourinho give fosu mensah or Pereira in the pre-season.

Hi,

Has anyone experience of Vodafone broadband in rural area. Moving into farm house in Laois and the local broadband spots are unreliable. Seeing Vodafone has decent coverage just want to know what they're like and is it worth 18 month contract. Cheers

Carlow won't fear us. 

And we won't fear Carlow. Improving every game and get a faster start than last 2 games. Drive it on now. Hopefully bring a big crowd to Croker like the good days 

Just seen Bale interview with BT Sport after game sounds like he wants more game time. Be interesting to see if we'll make a bid.

 Great win! Well done lads. A day out in Croker against the Lillies probably. 

Just back from Delaney Park, someone call the guards, as there was a murder, plenty of witnesses there too for it.

Saw that result, outrageous.. was it as painful to watch as it sounds? Hard to comprehend a result like that!

They'll be parking the bus the next day to keep score down. You'd feel for the Stradbally lads getting unmerciful hammering.

Listened to it from abroad.. I won't say anything bar well done to all concerned. But!. What time is Saturdays match at. Flights need organising and a trip to The town hall and Trudge for the homecoming. ..quick reply needed.

Probably be around 5pm and division 3 at 7pm. Is that usually the case?

Zlatan going to LA Galaxy contract terminated. Best of luck to him.

Bumping this back up as hoping to change car in summer. Currently in process of moving back home to Laois and have about 140 mile commute mon-Friday. Querying whether anyone has bought new seat Leon's from 131 upwards versus VW golf. Price range around the 10k mark. Any advice greatly appreciated looking for a fairly reliable thing as have a wedding to pay for too 

Anyone got experience of driving down the West Coast of the USA? It's in the frame for the family holiday this Summer probably,  take 12/13 days at it starting in Seattle and finishing in maybe SAN Diego..

yes. did the entire coast a few years back. you could camp all the way if you wanted
the road isn't actually along the coast in a lot of places

Washington - fantastic coast. Olympic national park area is brilliant. You can go inland to Mount Rainier NP too before hitting the coast

Oregon - great big beaches, though with not much along them. Portland is definitely worth a look. My favourite US city.

Northern California - redwoods are pretty cool. the road doesn't actually go along the coast for a lot of it
wine country - the mendocinno wine country is a lot less busy than sonoma or napa

ask away

Any of ye experience of driving from San Fran to LA coastal route. Staying in Monterey half way to break up trip(Heading to us for 3 weeks in May). Giving 2 days for coastal drive. Any bits for LA. Trying to convince herself to go down to San Diego for a day. Stayed by in LA for 4 nights and hear mixed reviews about LA. Staying in Santa Monica in Airbnb. Sound

Absolute donkeys out there

Correct. Stephen Attride is Killeshin as well.

1976 Michael Dowling in Maynooth, is that the teacher?

Evin Keane the Heath was with DCU in 2016 also.

Are we talking about Sean Moore here?

No. A Camross footballer.

Will that include hurling with Portlaoise aswell is transfer goes in?

It would have to. He is looking to transfer from one dual club to another. I don't know if he hurls much?

Hurled intermediate for Camross be an addition for Portlaoise.

Are we talking about Sean Moore here?
