Well like any good journo he'll be taking all your points on board and change it up the next time, as they do read these

The three prior fatal collisions have claimed 5 lives, all over the age of 30. The road in its current form is simply unfit for purpose.
No one is blaming age all the, but don't let that get in the way of your post. This reason for this accident is unknown, a single car accident involving teenagers. I don't know anyone that is against making this road safer.
But having suggestions in general about car safety and driving sensibly can also happen separately
Quote from: G@@ on Today at 11:56:15 AMQuote from: Milltown Row2 on April 29, 2024, 02:37:46 PMLaois definitely have the winning of this tournament in them, but would wait till after the win before getting Antrim.Absolutely, the team needs to stay focused on the tournament in hand. Us fans can merely speculate though!
Carlow have done really well considering no points but have not shipped the heavy defeat that Antrim had last week so when we meet our advantage is a home game against them.
Dublin are not going to take us lightly either so would take an even bigger result away from home to gain third for us.
The Laois V Kerry match on Saturday is the springboard game to coast into the final. For Offaly, every game for them going forward is knockout with their biggest threat in the form of Kerry at Tullamore later this month. These two games will really decide the Joe McDonagh Cup.
If we lose this Saturday and Offaly beat Kerry on May 19th then we are in a dog-fight with Westmeath in the last round - a dogfight in Mullingar is really where we don't want to be.
A vital game this Saturday coming up.

Of course the 6 counties has a speed restriction on persons driving for the first year, and this driver cannot have been much beyond that. But there is no useful enforcement.
Moving to some sort of electronic gadget is the way forward, so that people get into the habit of driving normally in their first few years. Perhaps like the proposed smoking restriction you could require new drivers to have electronic monitoring from now on.

At least Bryson isn't hiding behind a fake name like 99.9% of the hate filled bastids on there are

The Dundalk boxer had been looking to change allegiance after Irish Athletic Boxing Association said they would not be putting her name forward.
I suppose Boxing in the Olympics is a major ambition for any Boxer. No doubt it was a tough decision. Best of luck to her.

Cork are really up against it now and will have to beat Limerick or I would say they're out. Waterford need to beat Tipp or they're likely out too and same if Tipp don't beat Waterford. Tipp beating Waterford would help Cork a bi though.
I think Galway and Dublin should switch managers, O'D looks completely lost with Dublin doesn't seem to know how to progress them. Shefflin doesn't seem to be getting a tune out of Galway and IMO hasn't improved them either.
O'D back to Galway where he at least was passionate about it and knows the players, Shefflin to Dublin to bring that big name bounce and attract more players to the Dublin set up.
Both currently treading water and going no where fast.

Also Dublin have dropped their level quite a bit, I think genuinely we have been the better team over the past number of years despite the results.

There are other events/establishments people would be refused entry to in such a state, so why not a GAA match as well?
