'Al Quaida launched a vicious terrorist attack on 9/11.'

So, that was year zero?  Nothing happened before that date involving America or American foreign policy?  It was bin Laden who started it?  The Israelis aren't c***ts?  It's those nasty Arabs?

Whoopy-do.

Slightly more at the Clonoe v Dromore match I'd say.

Considering it's the Irish League, blank probably means exactly what it says, ie there was nobody there ... they can't be hiding the figures for tax reasons, as they probably wouldn't have to pay tax on such small figures

Yeah, I've heard of Morton Island, mate I'm staying with in Brisbane mentioned it, I'll have a go at that

[You aren't in Australia by any chance?]

Hit 28c here today with a clear sky...

Not usual to see snow back home this early in the season though. Sign of a cold winter ahead?

You aren't in Australia by any chance?  Heading out for first time next month for a holiday

Yes...

Any tips on what there's to do in Brisbane?

How long will Noel McGinn get for that headbutt on national TV?

Crip McWilliams was nothing more than a gangster in the Billy Wright or Johnny Adair model. St Pauls should ask the organisers of this evening to take it elsewhere as McWilliam did enough damage to the GAA when he murdered Sarsfields man Collie Mahon.

If any other Republican had have taken out that murdering bastard Wright he would have been considered a hero, but McWilliams never was ... he was nothing but a cowardly sc**bag who bravely went and got a gun after being ejected from Frames and came back and shot dead a well liked and respected family man who just happened to work in the bar

Youse boys are lucky, most of the psni ones are dykes with moustaches

They could get rid of Logie, no one would notice.

From what I've heard Down Gael, looks like you'll be getting your wish

"This has caused myself and my family great distress but I am now determined that I will not be driven from office "
Cllr. Neill Armstrong

BALLYMENA Councillor Neill Armstrong has pledged to continue his political career despite being at the centre of a 'distressing' internet impersonation scam last week.
The UUP representative admitted he had been stunned and angered when he was made aware that he was being impersonated on a GAA web site by someone making 'outrageous and inflammatory comments' under his name.

Cllr. Armstrong, who represents Ballymena North, told the Times: "I have no idea who is doing this or what their motives are and I immediately requested that the comments be removed, which I understand has been done.

"I would wish to completely disassociate myself from the comments which in no way reflect my views. I am happy to stand on my public record as a councillor over the past eight years where I have treated all constituents equally and have always opposed violence or extremism in any form."

He added: "This has caused myself and my family great distress but I am now determined that I will not be driven from office by bigots from whatever quarter and will continue to serve people from all sections of the community in Ballymena equally."

So what about the rest of the bard's comments Neill? Were they yours? Any chance of a journalist properly questioning him on this?

They would do, if he would answer his phone to them or reply to his emails ... Neil, if you're reading the board, this isn't going to go away anytime soon

Why the fcuk wont anyone ask him about the other comments? (bar the NL, who touched on it)

They would do if he would answer his mobile phone to unrecognised numbers of reply to his emails ... I know of at least two Sunday tabloid reporters who have been trying to talk to the man who said he was willing to talk to anyone about the disgraceful comments he didn't make...

Nothing to do with the fact he is english, simply due to his reign the fans see themselves as being fleeced.
He also talked shite over the maze, promised to keep fans informed and did nothing of the sort.

Nothing to do with being english - the fans where delighted to see him after the debacle that was Bowen, but he hasnt lived up to the hype

Er, was the reason for the case taken against the IFA not based purely on racism, i.e anti-English remarks made to him by kennedy and a few of the other gulpins at the IFA?  S'pose it makes a change from sectarianism as far as the IFA is concerned.  If you think Wells was bad, I believe kennedy has been appointed to his post on a temporary basis ... great, you'll have that great man of words doing two jobs for you very badly, as opposed to one

For all their union jacks, rule britannias and god save the queens, they don't seem to like the very thing they want to be

The RUC 'investigation' into this was a complete and utter whitewash ... if the brits who did the shooting and covered it up are going to be reinvestigated then the george cross heroes - with their new wee windy in st anne's - who carried out the criminal probe should also be made amenable

I believe the IFA have just terminated Howard Wells' contract today ... hasn't he already taken them to an Industrial Tribunal?  Looking forward to the court case on this one
