My contract with o2 is up this month. Has anyone ever took a sim only contract with O2 through Uswitch? Their deal on say 30g is over half the price that O2 are quoting me directly. The uswitch says it includes roaming and o2 priority. I'm just wondering what the catch is?
I renewed with O2 the last time via the online chat with them and I mentioned the USwitch deal. They asked for a link and I shared it and they matched the deal then.

Were you renewing sim only or including a handset? That's good to know that they might match it
Renewing SIM only

League Regulations:

Where there is a need to differentiate between teams on equal points, the following criteria, outlined in Rule 6.21 (4) (c) T.O. 2021
shall be used:
a. Where teams finish with equal points the outcome of the meetings between the teams shall be the deciding factor, except for in a one round league where the deciding factors will be from b to d below.
b. The highest scoring differences. That is points scored minus points conceded in the games played between the teams
c. The highest score for'.
d. Play off

Where more than 2 teams are on equal points the issue will be decided as per b above

Exceptions:
Regulations a., b., c. shall not apply to u15 and lower agegroups

In the antrim Leagues what takes preference? overall scoring diff or H2H

2 Teams: Head to Head.
More than 2: The highest scoring differences. That is points scored minus points conceded in the games played between the teams.

We were in Duinrell at Easter there.  Great spot.  The whole theme park attractions included and the indoor pool with all the slides as well.  We had booked direct with them and were in one of their Premium Plus Duingalows - it was great.  Weather wise when we were there it was dry most of the time, but one afternoon it was wet, we put the coats on and continued through the theme park - not a queue in sight.  Would definitely recommend, kids had a ball!

Parked at the Clayton hotel and used their shuttle bus. Worked out around 8 euro a day for 2 weeks. Great value!
Yep had checked it, full also!

I wouldn't reckon Monaghan or Fermanagh have near those figures MR2 and both of those Counties have been punching well above their weight in Ulster finals?

Just googled there

Monaghan have 5,000 men between ages 20 and 34 playing football it seems

That figure is about 1800 Male Players (both codes) between 20 and 38 in Antrim

Quick question, we built a house 5-6 years ago and was told to run Cat 5 cable to all rooms, that it would future proof the house and so on.

So 5 years later, we still haven't done anything with it as most things seem to be going wireless. Is it actually useful and should we be doing anything with it?
I'm in the process of doing up the "good room" and we are moving a couple of sockets as we're putting in built in shelving. We have a roll of this cat 5 sticking out too and was just thinking I'd cut it off and close up the opening. Would I be wrong to do this?

It will depend on how good your wifi is throughout the house. If you have spots with poor coverage you may want boosters and the cat5 is the best way to minimise losses through concrete and steel.
You may also want to consider having a cable running to your tv in the good room, rahther than depend upon the wireless coverage in that room.

I have the BT discs in and thankfully have good coverage across the house. But would have tried to use the cat 5. How would I go about linking the cat 5 up with the Wi-Fi. Mines all pulled to the attic. Do I just plug the one in beside the router and that'll link to the rest??

Built at a similar time and have the same set up. (Though Cat 6)
All those cables throughout the house go back to the attic, in a small rack.
I have a network switch in the rack as well (Something like this: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B08MKWYN5T?tag=ps-uk-netgear-002-21&ascsubtag=wtbs_63fd214a778dca9483390401&me=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE)

Then from my BT Hub I have a cable going from the back of it, to the Cat 6 port in the wall which goes to the attic, then one from that port into the network switch. 
Any network port around the house you want active for internet you just need to plug a cable from the network switch to the necessary point on the patch panel which leads to the necessary room you need the connection.

The likes of TV/Gaming etc will generally get a better connection with a network cable.

Getting up the upgrade at the moment and it would seem my original BT cable across a neighbours field was not ducted.  Openreach will need to therefore lay a duct to pull the new cable through, I am awaiting for them to quote for this.  Has anyone any experience of a similar situation and did it cost much?
Openreach Engineer that was out with me told me it would be cheaper to get the duct laid myself.  In my case it was only 30m from the edge of my property and he said BT would start at £1000.  Got someone I knew with a small digger to do it for alot less.

Great effort by clubs at the weekend hosting the festivals of football, virtually all local clubs there in force at both venues. I caught a few games in the u11 superb atmosphere and i'm hearing it was the same over in Creggan at the younger age group.
Superb in Creggan as well!
