There's a decent page/graphic in the review stating current journey times via rail or road compared to the projected journey times for the proposed upgrades and works. Time on virtually all Inter-city routes is vastly reduced and considerably quicker than cars.

Where's our Russian troll now?

Some dive by McManus at the end, but once again, Armagh stupid fouling haunts them again,

Was it a dive or a foul?

It was a definite foul  but with McManus enhancing the drama. The script was already written for that last piece of drama, everybody knew their lines except Armagh and the ref was right on cue.

I see the GAA have stated that a wide was the correct call.

"During the Armagh v Monaghan game yesterday the Hawk-Eye score detection system returned a 'data unavailable' message. The GAA requested an explanation from Hawk-Eye who concluded that the message was a result of operator error.
The GAA is happy that the system review confirmed the on-field decision by the referee taken at the time."

I wonder what the operator error was?
And if the review showed it was in fact a point and Monaghan happened to lose the game in ET or penalties, another secret to buried in the Croke park cellars and the operator falls out of a 5th floor window?

Hawk-eye gives some bother in the GAA. Does it give the same amount of trouble in its other sporting applications? I read it costs between €7-8k per game!

Points are tricky and more frequent in GAA versus say rugby.

I don't  watch rugby  but am   I right  in saying rugby posts are higher than  GAA posts ?

Raise the height  of the posts , and that would  sort out some  of the  close calls

Or even put another crossbar at the top of the posts and the ball has to go through this rectangle. 

You might jest , but that was proposed  a few short years back . I think it failed

Awful proposal. Let's make it harder to score.

Something nice about seeing a booming point from out the pitch fly over the ball stopper.

A part of the delay in taking the forward mark is defenders not standing out of the way. So by the time the ref moves them and signals the free to be taken, the forward does their routine, well over 15 seconds have passed. Solution - warning followed by yellow for defenders blocking free.

Or do it like AFL, defender stands on the site of the mark and the attacker can kick it from any point further from the goals than said mark. It'll stop the forwards stealing any yards with a long run up too.

Top in each group should go through to semis, last should be relegated to the Tailteann (with all group winners there promoted). You'll not eliminate all dead rubbers in every system but that should do for most of them.

Kilcoo boys seriously unlucky to be getting so many bangs to the head.

United does not need oil money. United generate a ridiculous amount of money that allowed United to spend as much as anyone WHILE parasites took a billion out of the club.

What United need is ownership with the best interests in the club and pulling in one direction.

Ie; United need owners for whom purchasing the club is not a financial decision. Is that anyone outside a state backed owner? Will Ineos want a return for their purchase?

Absolute scumbags. Suppose you can protest at night when you've no work to go to in the morning. Same people, same mindset as loyalists!

Exactly my thoughts, behaving like Loyalists!

At least they're doing SOMETHING. Beats sitting around and wondering where the hell your country or community has gone. Or would you rather see an unending stream of migrants here? IS there a limit? Because the way some people go on, we should provide for anyone and everyone who washes up on our shores.

Fascism is a cancer, and once it takes hold...

[to make a McKenna semi final would be unreal.]

A really positive performance last night, we wer strong in defence, dominated midfield and should have scored a whole lot more. Donegal will be another good test but to make a McKenna semi final would be unreal.

Ffs it's the McKenna cup.

A sizeable percentage of Catholics who don't see themselves as Irish was another big take from this, or prefer Northern Irish to Irish.

Chuckling our neighbours in the 26 don't see us as Irish either
Northern Irish isn't  totally indicative of a unionist slant , my two teenage kids would want a united Ireland as much as the rest of us but when in Dublin  at university they will say they are northern Irish because it's easier than trying to justify to  southern people they are Irish .

I've a mate who's daughter couldn't get into DCU because she wasn't Irish, she has Irish passport and was born in Ireland..

Genuinely not sure about that.
Trinity actually have certain courses the ones with over 600 needed with spaces for (NI) students because 4 astars only gets 600
Or whatever the score is .

Do a Maths A-Level and you can get more than 600 points.

Can't beat Adidas Kaiser/World Cups.

Burren big favourites for the championship now after that performance. Kilcoo have fallen backwards

Nothing more than a bit of shadow boxing last night.

So JJ's punch was shadow boxing?I despair for some of the
clowns like you OgraAnDun on this Board.

The result of the match, not the actual fracas. You can't say Kilcoo have fallen backwards nor that Burren are favourites for the championship based on a league game.

Just for reference my last fill was at castlebellingham apple green on the way to croker and with the exchange rate on revolut worked out at £1.53 a litre and thats when prices would have been roughly £1.90 up north

The Circle K at Junction 7 (City North Hotel) just up the road is usually a few cent cheaper again.
