Have heard a story that, depending on the attendance, Sligo would be in line to receive between 30 and 50% of Mayo GAAs take from hosting the fixture and they wouldn't have to even turn a key in a gate to get it. That must be tempting for the Sligo board against the Hyde/Pearse alternative of not getting a penny and still not getting the game at home. This could go either way.

Wow. That is some bargaining if it is true.

I suspect this shite is going to create a martyr complex in Sligo. If they dont want to go to Castlebar so be it. Better now to get it over and done with in the Hyde/Pearse even if it means both counties will lose out financially.

lets see how it plays out , if it suits the sligo county board better to play in castlebar then why shouldnt everyone benefit...

except for the rossies like ... 

eh , it was sligo that brought in this rule....

i wonder are these lads actually guilty ?

was there any evidence of theft by hotel staff before this incident?
we have all been in good hotels and left cash lying about which the staff never touched.
were the other quests all interrogated ? i believe there were germans who were not questioned as they didnt speak english , i find it hard to believe they didnt speak english or that the cops could not have found a translator.
i read that there is a guest still unaccounted for who left the hotel that night , is this true ?

its all an utter mess , criminals actually being helped with their crimes due to incompetance and willfull hinderance by hotel staff , cops , lawyers etc. etc. 

Back in the early 70s, Justin Keating imposed terms on Marathon, the company developing the Kinsale field that were based on the Norwegian model. Here, a state-owned company, Statoil, was set up to make maximum use of the state's income from its oil reserves in the North Sea. (The exploration company was Mobil.)
Statoil was to a 50% partner and would bear none of the exploration costs but was to gain full access to mining data.
Norway wanted to become a world leader in deep-sea technology, exploration and production. It's fair to say that Britain settled for a much less favourable deal.
At least, Justin Keating said so.
Keating set up the Irish National Petroleum Corporation, (INPC) based on the Statoil model. This was some achievement given that the '73 oil crisis left the exploration companies with a much stronger hand to play with.
Shortly after this an election was held and Dessie O'Malley took over from Keating. He limited the INPC's remit to sourcing strategic oil supplies. It was no longer involved in drilling, exploration or the development of resources.
He also refused an invitation from Norway to take a block in their North Sea fields as the Norwegians would only deal with a state company and O'Malley was unwilling to use the INPC for this purpose.

this to me was the most important part of the siggins book, we should have gone in with the norwegians and learned how to take the full pound of flesh from the multinationals for our resources,

everything after that is just he said , she said and gutless politicians and angry people getting angrier

all in favour of this fixture, its trips like this where bonding takes place , 

Kiltane Belmullet, everything else is just young bucks kicking a ball 

Jaysus, RTÉ have tipped Mayo on their website. 
Still big underdogs, but nowhere near as written off as we were before Cork.

RTE so far have tipped Leitrim to beat Roscommon, Roscommon to win the Connacht final & Cork to beat Mayo.

then this is their sly attempt to finally get one right

beating kerry will mean f**k all if we dont land sam , that being said... i dont care how we beat kerry 

Galvins mind is on the prizeeeeeeeeeee

dont know whether to laugh or cry reading that

Bumping to see if i can get a few recruits , like i said folks if you hear of anyone moving to germany or know anyone there who would play then please give them our details frankfurtgaaclub@googlemail.com

Bumping again lads for the new year , we will be competing in the European Hurling championships as well this year so if you know anyone interested in Gaelic Football or Hurling in Germany or who will be moving to Germany  , please ask them to get in touch..

Bump , anyone interested , please get in touch..

Once again a bump lads in case you know anyone in germany interested in playing Gaelic games, we just got a batch of electricians who have arrived for the next year but are looking for more recruits especially hurlers. contact details above , please get in touch

Going to bump this one again lads, if you know anyone over in germany who wants to kick some ball or hurl then ask them to get in touch with us.

Do not want either Paidi or Micko if we go for an outsider.

If that is the course taken you want somebody hungry, dedicated, for a long-haul with a modern approach to the game.

But moysider is right a big name will be required to get the excitement going and with an attempt to eat into the debt - will the Board see that though.

the fact is there has never been a better time to be in debt , you cant get any more credit so cant get further into the hole , the bank cant sell off mchale anyway as no one could buy the feckin place or develop it and the whole country is renegotiating debt , let them sort out a longer repayment period and if they have to pay a manager ( personally i would prefer an unpaid one) then they should be able to find funding for all his expenses.. the board need to get realisitic here , they have income streams so should be able to practically dictate to the financial backers...

If Richard Bruton replaces Enda Kenny so there is now no chance of a Mayo Taoiseach, what are the chances that Johnno will be returned? I can't see it happening, he is going to have to work like crazy over the next two years to be re-elected and where does that leave the senior team.

Only winning Sam could retain his seat I would say!!!

look at enda kenny , winning sam would keep johhno and all his progeny in a seat for perpetuity

edna didnt win sam.....he jus lost his dick.
