Listen lads, my Da painted the house, I was off work on the Monday and the gazette called up to the house and I had to take a picture. It was there for my sisters wedding a week after the AI final but it has since been covered, dont worry lads, it will be Blue and white in Sept '08

Heard thr ogs game is off tonight.

No sign from me Ben, just seen them erecting on the blue side of town as well, apparently signs from McKennas, Devlins and Harps club, so the whole town getting behind the Ogs

Spirit it'll be hard enough for the Ogs to beat Cross never mind u looking them at -4 points how about +4 instead

Thats the one Ben, your on the ball today.

Ladbrokes prices
Cross 1/10
Og's 5/1

There is no price the draw so I assume this is outright

Thems brutal odds lads

Candyman I'm feeling you there, why not back them then it wont be as bad if they pull through and if they're beat you'll dislike them evem more.

Any Handicap betting, maybe Ogs -4, 2/1 I might touch that bet.

I've heard nothing Candyman but In my view its perfect preperation for them, playing a side from the City.

Any truth the Ogs v Dromintee has been fixed for Abbey Park on Thursday night under the lights.

[1993 and I think the Harps beat Cross in the battle of Killeavey that year,]

Outside of my spate with uladh, I agree with Bensars to an extent that this is not a percievd problem associated with the GAA and I think perhaps Oisin has gone one the wrong road.  However, it could be a bigger problem than we realise and I know that other players are into laying big money and there have been accusations of game fixing etc. so maybe there is more to that than it would first appear.

In regards to the side issue, Oisin made his championship debut for Cross in 1993 and I think the Harps beat Cross in the battle of Killeavey that year, in 1994 we were beaten by the Ogs in Keady, when about 4 more of us made our full debuts.  A dire game where Harney scored 3 goals in the first half and the Ogs slowed the game down the whole second half.  I remember it vividlly as a certain Houlie gave me a roasting in midfield on my debut.  In 1995 Mullaghbawn beat us and Oisin was playing that day as well and that was the last defeat in Armagh.

Off the topic again, but I was only 11 that day and clearly remember the battle both on and off the field. But I think Cross beat the Harps

 

out of interest what would he be taking in for the Lucozade Sport craic and the Jiggs and reels thing. That would have covered a bit of it, although rumours that Hugh and the boys helped cover him as long as he played for the county for a few more years.

Obviously a plug for the book, but why write a book if you don't want to sell it. Fair play to the lad, hope he has it sorted, was drinking in his company after the 2002 ulster final, I picked a 16/1 winner in the 1st race and he put £50 on every horse I fancied after that, lost a clean fortune.

Correct me if i'm wrong is that 7 wins and 1 draw from the Championship defeat, good going by the lads and Div 1 football next year was an absolute necessity.

Apologise if this has been covered already but I just heard the company developing the Athletic grounds has gone bust and work has ceased yet again.

What a bloody joke this county board is.

They were riding on a crest of a wave with the senior team doing well, but they are useless. Nugents position must now be untenable, after all he is an employee not a volunteer.

McLaren hit by constructors' ban 


McLaren have been stripped of their points in the 2007 Formula One constructors' championship after the outcome of the 'spygate' row.
The team was also hit with a record $100m (£49.2m) fine but drivers Lewis Hamilton and Fernando Alonso will be allowed to keep their points.

The team must also prove there is no Ferrari 'intellectual property' in its cars next eyar before they can race.

McLaren team chief Ron Dennis is due to speak at a 1915 BST news conference.
