None of the Germans impressed Ronnie Whelan he gave Jon Walters the man of the match. 1-6 it ended.

6-0 the best goal of the night.

It's like watching Borussia Dortmund v Bray Wanderers.

Giovanni Trapattoni may resign after this game.

All too easy for the Germans. That Irish fan thinks someone is number one?

The Germans should win this game.

[As for NFL Semis .... for f**** sake . Next we'll have quarter finals ... and then why not a round of 16 as well .]

Well, nearly 3,000 people were interested on Sunday!

How did it take up valuable weekends? The NFL will be finished at the same time as last year (even with the semis), club finals on St Patricks day as usual, championship starts at same time. What competition were disrupted because of the Railway Cup? None!

3,000 from an Ulster "GAA friendly" population of around 1 million. How many travelled from Munster I wonder.
2,860 was official attendance.
How many NFL games could have been played last 2 weekends and avoid having 4 games in 4 successive weekends which has to have a negative effect on attendances.

Mid Louth -- I don't sit around talking sh1te in Committees - I'd  be out doing things.
Only place I express opinions ( sensible ones in my view  ) is here in GAABoard.

Semis are fantastic. Their removal took an edge out of the league structure. Obviously they should be two semi finalists each from an amalgamated D1 and D2, though. 4/7 in one division is a little silly, to say the least. I just hope the brass are using the semis this year as a transitional phase towards going back to 1A/B divisions, it'll help elevate plenty of teams by playing better opposition as well as freshening up what's become a league that's a little stagnant at the top end.

f**k no way, 1A 1B 2A 2B elavates all you counties underserving of division 1 status. Earn it like Mayo has, division 1's longest surviving member. Let the riffraff climb up not demean the top counties.

Semi finals for division of eight teams is daft.

Fionntamhnach - why won't you tell us if you have kids? I have two, 5 yrs old and 2 yrs old. When you have kids you look at the world differently. I suspect you have none.

I have kids. When they are older I will talk to them about lynching and mob violence.

That's nice. You should also explain why they can't walk the roads alone or cycle to school anymore like we all did as kids. Anyway, question wasn't directed to you.

Wasn't a safer place you could say parents weren't as careful when we were kids.

You will be shocked to hear Liverpool dominated a game but couldn't put the ball in the opposition's net for love nor money. And hit the post 3 times of course.

Lord give me strength.

After last season Brendan Rodgers or the owners should have improved Liverpool's strike force instead they stuck with Suárez and let Carroll,Bellamy go.

Manchester United are having a field day against that Newcastle defence.

Is Jimmy on his way to Liverpool to help out Brendan Rodgers' struggling scousers?

please let this be a joke.

You'll never walk alone to be replaced by Jimmy's winning matches?

[I would much rather have Donegal, Tyrone, Dublin, Kerry or Cork in the first round.]

As much as I would love to Beal Bocht this, but unless at least one other team and hopefully at least 2 other teams in Connacht improve alot, Mayo should walk this.

Alot may change and probably will in the meantime, but as of now I would much rather have Donegal, Tyrone, Dublin, Kerry or Cork in the first round.

Why would you want early championship exit over a near guaranteed All Ireland quarter final?

Ulster final for Armagh?

Tyrone v Donegal

Cavan for the Armagh men
