Maughtan and from Feb 2016 an unemployed John O'Mahony to assist him is just the ticket for the Rhus.
Sure what could possibly go wrong  ;D

All sporting organisations in the North should drop National flags and anthems.
Neither are necessary to play any sport.

He's talking Championship already while also giving the League a good cut.
Onwards and upwards, the best is yet to come.
Meanwhile the usual anti FO'D whinger is at it already on stolensheep. What an ass >:(

Good that it's nearly there at last.
By the way why do we use the quaint term "selectors" still? :o
Sure the manager selects the team nowadays.

How are Sligo 'only' at quarter final stage?
The County team were in Round 4b Qualifier action August weekend.
They also unexpectedly :-[ :-[ got to the Connacht Final and probably put the Club scene on hold.

Syf getting on the new bandwagon ;D
Took you 2 hours to get over your Brids  :P
Nice to see a change and hopefully the Pearses will win their first ever.

Elliott was also blathering about how terrible and upsetting was  flying a Tricolour and playing the National Anthem at Brewster Park.
Not much respect for 52% of his neighbours there.

Armaghmaniac the Unionism which opposes everything Irish is now the minuscule TUV.
Don't forget a certain chap called Elliott  ;) or the Archbigot Campbell .

Derry are serial underperformers. Is this likely to change?

Galway are serial underperformers. Is this likely to change?
Le cunamh De. the last fallow period lasted 32  years so early days yet.
It would be nice to have Galway and Ros putting MGHU under pressure, wouldn't it ?
Wouldn't it just.
Be even better when we are batin' the hoors regularly again.

Cillian O'Connor deserves the award for the simple reason that he scored more than anyone else. Quigley scored his total in 6 games, whereas O'Connor only had 5 games...However, that doesn't take away from the fact that Quigley had a great year.

I disagree.  This award simply rewards the person who ends up scoring the most frees.
So.... They all count in a game.
How many teams lose games bemoaning the lack of a decent 9 out of 10 freetaker?

When shine is intransitive (has no direct object), the past tense is shone. When shine is transitive (takes a direct object), the past tense is shined.

Another way of looking at it is that when the subject of the verb is shiny, the past tense is shone. When the object of the verb is shiny, the past tense is shined.

"The table shone after I shined it."

Thanks for proving me right myh :D

No, you're actually WRONG: but by all means allow a fellow #ignorantpedant to peddle your pedantic myth.

:D ;D
Typical Tymoanie - can't accept you lost  :P
