This hard man image doesn't suit St Brigid's at all. Hard to take them seriously when half of them have a posh Belfast accent. They'd be better focusing on the football, which they are pretty good at tbf. Theyve been in some amount of rows, at all levels, this year too...

Coward? a bit OTT there chap.

MR2 always goes AWOL around this time and that's fine.

The refs cartel are in everything but the crib.

Bring back Ger Robinson and Tommy McIntyre!

Don't worry MR2 knows I'm joking!

Would Joe be a well respected barrister or a bit of a head the ball?

Quote from: Around the glens on September 17, 2024, 05:18:46 PMDunloy have earned their stripes to play in the senior championship. The fact that their league and championship team is different is no fault of their own.

If they had of been beat out the gate on Sunday you could've said last year was a fluke. Not the case.

Dunloy far from the only club who field league teams greatly different to their first choice championship team.

And why league form not a great gauge for championship.


there's few teams about anywhere who'd have as much of a difference between their leagie form and championship form. While the relegation does appear a complete mess they are a hard one to cater for. They are borderline a junior team leaguewise.

How many clubs lose the calibre of players that dunloy lose due to county commitments? Not leaving off their own back, playing for their county.
Seaan nigel keelan coby Ryan mcgarry eoin o Neill eoin mcferran aodhan mcgarry?

Is Ryan McGarry the young lad from Ballymena? Shouldn't he be playing for them?

Quote from: dec on September 17, 2024, 06:15:05 PMHow are you getting to the start. If you are taking the Staten Island ferry then you will get a look at the statue of Liberty on the way over.

I have run it 8 times, that is the only marathon that I have run so I can't compare it to anything else but I always had a good experience even the time I had a crap time.

I'll just be looking to finish! Getting the midtown manhattan bus with my mate. He's a 2.30 marathon runner so he'll be finished hours before me 😂

Heading in 6 weeks to do the New York marathon. Just need to make it in one piece to the start line! Heading on the Wednesday morning and then leaving on Monday around tea time so a decent amount of time. Has anyone any good tours they'd recommend? Id like to do a tour of Central Park or the likes of Ellis Island. Something that will have a few interesting stories. Don't think I want a rushed fly by tour of the city where you're only stopping at the monument or site for a quick photo. Looking to do the usual things like 9/11 tour, top of the rock, see a show. The Saturday is the day before the marathon so I'll be taking it easy that day and staying off my feet from about 7pm that night. Not a big drinker but will probably head out after mid town on Sunday night after the marathon for some food/drinks if anyone has any good bar/food recommendations.

Rangers have also had 4 very good chances, lucky they are so shit. Not that impressed with Celtic in a lot of facets of the game

That's as bad a performance I've seen from Sevco. Jesus they're so bad! Rangers had a chance or 2 but Celtic could have had another couple as well. Will be interesting to see where these new men play in the team.

Quote from: bennydorano on August 28, 2024, 01:42:41 PMWas on holidays in Lanzarote a while back there and did a bit of cycling, we stayed in Costa Teguise which is perhaps a bit more exposed than other places but the wind was absolutely horrendous (& I was going out at 7.30am to avoid the worst of it), how anyone can be bothered with that is beyond me, altho the bike shop did say the winds are much worse in high summer. A very distant 3rd in my Canary Islands cycling experience.

Where is your favourite? France surely the best country for the iconic climbs?

Brilliant business from Celtic all the same. Was it £1.5m he was bought for? Let's hope there's 4/5 lads come in asap.

More than likely going to be sitting here raging next week when Celtic have signed 1 player and much weaker going into the season 🤦🏻
