There was over 20000 foreigners armed to the teeth in the north for years don't remember any of these far right groups about then.

Most people assumed SF/IRA were nationalist. Turns out not to have been so.

did this make sense in your head?

with the draw being made before provincial finals how will that affect the potential groups? Can donegal be with Derry for example?

Not sure why I bother...go up 2 posts tonto

hah. Apologies. I did read through that. Will blame monday morning. Much appreciated

[Every game is a lottery.]

Why is the final between the 2 d2 teams? Hmmmn.

Because this is Ulster, where every team in the province has contested the final at least once  in the last twenty years.
Every game is a lottery.
Its why it the best championship in the land.

You might have a point but there's no need to tell lies.

There appear to be no certainties so if not a lottery its certainly unpredictable.

There are certainties. Antrim & Fermanagh are going to lose. Down extremely likely to as well.

You could have picked 4 out of 9 to win it. 2 of those are in the final.

Pedantic posts of the week go to.... 

It's a completely boring and untrue narrative though.
The Leinster final of 2023 had 2 Division 2 teams in it. They felt no need to use that fact to big themselves up. We, in Ulster, do. Our football can be fcukin dreadful too, and there's plenty of evidence this weekend.

In 2023 Leinster didnt have any Division 1 teams

dont let that get in the way

Donegal will be strong favourites for the final

Last week could take its toll on Tyrone now

Down goals were a comedy of errors defensively. There was some running and handpassing in the build up, nothing more.

Genuinely shocked at how much credit people are trying to give down. They turned up to play as little football as possible, and when they did, were largely terrible at it.

Thomas Niblock has called it a phenomenal performance from Down on Twitter. I think your assessment is closer to the truth about their performance.

Niblock would call a fart in a phone box phenomenal ffs

If Down had a free taker or a forward of any use they'd have won that game with ease.

Armagh atrocious.

But they won. That's the main thing. And they came out the right side of a tight game. Hopefully that'll stand to them

Down and Armagh doing their absolute best to ensure people find better things to do - or just about anything else to do - than watch Gaelic Football.

Our sport is fucked beyond words.

Wouldnt say that. Counties now simply hire too many games who are shite and who focus far too much on defense rather that attack.

Armagh county board are mad to be paying mcgeary for 10 years

They would be if that's who they were paying

See apparently this morning, that 80% of blow ins come in from Northern Ireland.

Id like to see where she got that figure from

So would calling for the deportation of 7200 people "whose asylum applications have been refused" be a far right
Position?

All I say is there was a famous case last year where an asylum seeker in Belfast had his claim for asylum refused at first instance.  The reason for his refusal was he had claimed he would be persecuted in his home country because he was involved in guerrilla warfare.  The Home Office rejected that this would entitle him to asylum because 'gorillas are an endangered species' and fighting them shouldn't allow him to claim asylum.

So id at least like appeals to be dealt with first

is this true?

Please give us some for the roads. I swear I think my entire car will go down a pothole some day at current rate...

a few near me are horrendous. All on the same road too

[What we have seen so far in Ulster is the favourite's are getting their balls slapped]

As for Armagh game...Armagh will always give you good chances in a game and if you take most of them then you'll be in touching distance, if you fail they'll have a wee spell where they can pull away from you easily and game could be over (this is for the lesser teams BTW). Armagh are very unpredictable and could win by 1-2 pts or 15pts it's all down to the other teams taking the chances Armagh give them in the game.
What we have seen so far in Ulster is the favourite's are getting their balls slapped so hope this is different and Armagh have taken note of the previous weeks, a sending off or lose goal or two and anything can happen but I expect Armagh to win by 5-6pts as they should have too much for Down

not exactly true as we didnt have any issues against Fermanagh

Anti everything, blame foreigners for all their personal problems, never take responsibility for anything, never solve anything. Most importantly, pretend they care about ireland, citizens, women etc - when they dont.

Most of them would be low down the IQ level and easily manipulated by a few semi intelligent but evil people.

only care about women being killed if the killer is a non irish national
