Trying to copy the best fans in Ireland by having a forum eh lads 

, it seems to be all give by the GAA and none by the soccer.

The day soccer has something to give to the GAA will be some day.
All that lot have is the hand out all the time

These games must be in Croke Park alright as they are offering tickets for sale on www.gaa.ie for them in Croke Pk.
Believe it or not they are offering tickets for "NFL play off" games on Sat evening 21st April also. I beleieve they intend playing the Div 2 Semis that evening unless 2a has playoffs.
Does this mean that if there are playoffs in Div 2a - they will be played in Croker?
Depending on next weeks results 4 teams could end up on 8 points - there would be a need for two rounds of playoffs !!!

[ the GAA in Castlebar had the freedom to build a facility without ouside influences like the courts and other sporting bodies dictating things. .

The big difference is - 1 -the GAA OWN McHale Park
                                2 - they are improving what they built there already
                               3 -they are getting percentage grants TOWARDS the overall cost(like all other sports facilities except ONE)
                               4 -it is NOT Mayo Co Council building a County Stadium which if they did should be for all the people of Mayo.
Meanwhile in Tallaght Shiterock Beggars want a free public facility built for them because they couldnt raise the funds to build it themselves on the free site they were given.
The GAA rightly want the County Stadium to be able to host their games too and the High Court has said they have a point.
As for Cumann Thomáis Dáibheis - I'm sure the club are behind the action as unlike Soccer -GAA clubs are organised bodies and one man cant run off taking Court cases on his own.

Lad on the uileanns is good - pity about the noise from the stringy thing - it takes away from the piper.

"I could not agree to providing a regulation pitch for the simple reason that this could lead to a reduction in the capacity of the stadium," said John O'Donoghue yesterday.

Isnt the thing in the middle of a great big park with only the shell of one stand put up?.
What's to stop them making it as big as they wish ?

They shoe in for the final as they avoid Cork & Armagh until then.

Good man -  count your chickens........

I don't mind one way or the other with the names but I do get pissed off watching the Minor All Ireland final on TV cuz I can't understand a word of the commentary. I imagine I am the same most other viewers. Time for a change there I think!!

Maybe it's time for you to learn a biteen of Gaeilge instead?

Will ye please take Maughan back as he has 2 teams ****ed up on us now.

[
.... a gaa club trying to get free use of their stadium?

Shows the mentality of the begging homeless tramps - they think it's their  :oeffin stadium !!!!!
Jasus lads ya couldnt make it up 

These so called fans must be the thickest most annoyng bunch of plikes that Ireland ever produced.

losing Sean Armstrong before throw-in was a big loss. 

That's why ye lost -ye had no one to foul the full back and get a goal like Armstrong did in the 2004 Connacht minor Final 

. Not a chance of the Mayo management taking the Rossies lightly,

At least ye have a ******g management

Thomas Davis statement:

"........"Our objective is to ensure that the stadium is developed to the benefit of the entire community in Tallaght including the GAA, but recognising the priority use of the stadium by Shamrock Rovers. We have been pursuing a number of measures to give life to this objective in recent weeks and will be up-scaling these efforts in the weeks ahead and thereafter while we await the substantive planning point coming before the court."

Executive Committe Thomas Davis GAA club

What a reasonable and common sense attitude.?
I notice Soccerfella has vanished GOOD RIDDANCE

Can't see Ros' winning even though they were impressive at times against Sligo.
4, I'm sure Maughan will be ready to have a right crack at them.

We have little hope next Saturday but it will be good experience for the young lads.
As for Maughan - why do ye hate us so much to inflict him on us ?

Hoping for a successful trip to Sligo on Saturday in the U21.
As for the minor I suspect both sides will be "experimental" as they meet in the Championship in only 5 or 6 weeks.
