I believe we have recalled our ambassador from Tyrone.

I didn't realise diplomatic relations had even been opened again after 96.

On a rather more sombre note, Fuzzman and I were chatting to a trio of young men in Ryans after the game, from Dublin, Laois, and Meath, respectively, and it painted a fairly depressing picture of Leinster, and wider football, in general.

Have the GAA created such a monster in Dublin, that it will end up devouring the sport itself, due to the relative and predictable invincibility of the Dubs, resulting in plummeting attendances to the point of non-viability, such is their dominance?

Yeah for 3 young lads (21-22) they sure had an amazing knowledge of their GAA over the last 20 or 30 years mainly through their dads. One was from Laois, one from Meath and one from AIG/Dublin.
They agreed with me that Leinster would be highly competitive just now without Dublin in it and if we could somehow let them go through to the last 8 without spoiling the provincial championship.

Of course they discussed Harte and wondered where we stood and how Jim McGuinness ruined football and now everyone else just follows that template and look who it has helped Fermanagh this year.
I think the Meath lad said Meath have something like 17 lads who should be on the panel opted out for one reason or another.

Because of Ireland's history as a colony of England, Irish nationalism is strongly pro Palestinian.  This is even more pronounced in the occupied territories. Palestine is a fairly safe issue because in both Ireland and Scotland Zionism has very little leverage.
Maybe the GAA is afraid of the Israeli embassy
Otherwise it must be the commercial director's shitehawking

Haha....I have a friend who works for AIG

I must ask him what he think about his company sponsoring a team whose supporters condone terrorism

Fair play to McShane coming over to say we 100% should have been given a free at the end.
If you were any use you'd be playing.

I noticed that the Meath players have the jersey with Devenish Nutrition plastered across the front. Mick Lyons would have horsed fellas aside eating just Taytos. Is this nutrition fad getting in the way of pure bacon and cabbage fag an bealach, of the style Meath used to be known for ?

I've had 14 certainties walk away from me in life time as well.

That must be it. Anyway Jinxy I hope this year is a turning point.  A lot of people are sick of the Dubs.

John McDermott had that gig hadn't he

What was the vibe between Mcdermott and  Graham geragthy like back then

I nagging thing is that all these recent wins v Meath still don't erase 96/07. Bastids will have it over us until they're good again.
I wanna have my kicks before the whole shithouse goes up in flames.
