QuoteMcGee trying to use it to further his agenda is a disgrace and typical of the gutter journalism he indulges in.

I'm not sure what you're getting at here Seanie, but McGee, very untypical as a journalist, is definitely not the sort to make something up because it suits him.  I know the man, and he's as straight as they come, probably to a fault.

QuoteA son of Harry Rogers.

Jaysus, where do the years go?  Will there be a new Rogers dynasty playing for the half-parish, or are all the clan living elsewhere - I know Donal married in Colmcille, so he obviously moved up in the world.   :P

QuoteHe's back reffing alll the same now 

You forgot to mention at intercounty level.

Oh, and his offence was assaulting a fellow referee, in the shower - I kid you not!  ::)

1. Why your user name Childhood comic character
2. Favourite all time game Took most pleasure from O'Byrne Cup win for Longford in 2000, but also enjoyed epic win over Derry in League in 2002
3. Favourite all time player from your county Dessie Barry, I s'pose and Paul Barden
4. Favourite other poster on gaaboard.com. Shamrock Shore, Laureleye and NorthLongford - I know since I was 12, also value the inane ramblings of crossbar, azoffaly and cicfada from time to time
5. Things you'd like to see change on the site. all things change, it's a fact of life
6. Player from another county you admire. Currently impressed by Eoin Kelly, always liked Matt Connor and Maurice Fitz
7. Dual players. Should they be allowed do both (why/ why not) Yes, of course - though I think there's going to be a problem with burnout of talent if they're playing for too many teams.
8. Dublin Hurling, IS there hope? *question for dubs  Not going there.
9. Best Moment of the year? Longford show Derry the ropes, again!
10. Worst moment of the year? Kerry expose Longford weak link mercilessly
11. Breasts or bum? Bum
12. Breaking ball or park live? Who cares?  Sorry Easytiger.  :P
13. (Situation) Cork v Meath (if from Meath Cavan V Dublin) in an All-ireland final. You have to shout for one or your head will explode. What do you do? Meath, anyone but the langers
14. DJ Or Eoin Kelly DJ
15. What  your own county needs to do to win Sam next year? Win six games
16. How do you stop (legally, Meath lads) Kieran Donaghy Sweeper, and cutting out space in middle third
17. Hopes for 2007. World peace, and Westmeath being carved up and distirbuted between real counties
18. Who will win Sam in 2007. Kerry, probably not, but they are still the best side
19. Who will win Liam in 2007.  Kilkenny
20. Your Gaaboard resolution for 2007.  Treat em rough!

QuoteOne more thing, what does "arra" mean.

It's the same as 'yerra' in Kerry.

Maybe we should commission a Japanese-style 'endurance' programme to find someone with enough patience, foolishness and masochism to manage Colmcille for 2007.

Declan appears to have been selected at left half back - he never played there for the county, and he plays midfield or centre forward for the club.  I s'pose the main consolation is that it could have gone to the guy who plays LHB for the county.   :P

QuoteAny sign of a new trainer yet?

Eh no, but maybe North Longford has something to say on this front.

Glad to see we got one 'prize' this year.   ::)  I hear only 4 players turned up at the AGM - it's going from bad to worse.  Ardagh reckoned we were the worst team they'd played (anywhere) in five years.

It would appear that it would seem well worth their while registering in both NI and ROI.

What if the Ulster Council is also VAT registered in Mexicoland?

Shamrock Shore is likely to know the score on this one - I'd have thought that maybe sporting events might be VAT exempted or VAT neutral in Mexicoland.
