Quote from: Capt Pat on May 26, 2024, 09:27:40 PMI think Ten Hags main job was to make progress in the premier league and in Europe. He failed abysmally at that task, getting knocked out of Europe completely at the first hurdle and dropping to a poor 8th in the premier league. Does the fa cup win make up for that. I don't think so. He was lucky to face an off form City in the final.

The only question to be answered is who replaces him.

Give it to Giggsy

Think it's rotated as Tipp played Offaly last year

Not sure you could get more out of that team ? Maybe a new voice needed though. The draw against Tipp very poor in hindsight

Quote from: marty34 on May 26, 2024, 03:56:02 PMAntrim's target is to win 1 game in Leinster and stay in the Leinster Chapionship the following year.

That's success for Antrim.

What are Dublin doing that we need to do?

Dublin should be what we are looking to get to

Dublin minors and 20s both in Leinster finals in the last week, we aren't even playing in A competitions in Leinster

Carlow some shower of ill bred hoors, well able to hurl so don't need to be at their extra curricular shite. Couple of their forwards dominated in the air today.

Quote from: From the Bunker on May 25, 2024, 05:35:40 PMCongrats to the Utd fans on here. Made City look ordinary. Nice finish to your season, after a lot of pain.
I presume that means they are in Europa League now? Probably could have done without that.

Yeah and have moved Chelsea to the Conference league

Jesus what a mistake by the umpire there in the U-20 game, Tipp keeper pushed the ball into the net there and no goal given

Quote from: Sportacus on May 22, 2024, 10:36:29 PMThe British public will get bored of Starmer and Reeves very quickly, because they are very boring.

They don't need to be interesting, just competent - and I think they are

Yeh main issue apparently is the Fitzgibbon game years ago when they were managing LIT & UL (I think)

Anyway Carlow as we always thought is going to be the big one, could be down a few - Bohill looked to be his hamstring, which kept him out for a good bit of the year earlier, doubt he's back.

Couldn't make out what the problem was with Campbell, but with just a week between the games not much time for recovery

The ref also had a perfect view of it from what I could see, better than the spectators anyway

It looked like more than minimal contact from where i was standing, if you hit someone on helmet or face guard you are asking for trouble.

Whelan went off for a while for treatment, & as NAH said above we would have been looking for a red the other way about. Down to 14 obviously didn't help but very poor in second half and probably expended a lot of energy in the first half

Yeah head to head if two teams, scoring difference across all games if more than two teams

Leinster slightly different, it's scoring difference in games between the teams involved
