Exactly, Ziggy. Perhaps it was that the others who spoke weren't interesting enough to print. Lay off Harte, he's been rarely wrong so far.

Strabane have shown plenty of balls coming back from that double blow from Derrylaughan.

As for Errigal on Sunday, I'll be mightily surprised if they defeat Ballinderry. They've shown their age on a few occasions but still managed to eek out a narrow victory. The Derry side might be one obstacle too far. However, if they somehow find a new lease of life, the sky will be the limit in what maybe Peter's swansong season in the inter-county arena.

There was a few Coalisland lads on the team that year - Lyons, Thornton off the top of my head

S Donaghy,
C Gourley, P McGurk (capt), C O'Hagan,
J McGeough, C McGeown, G Hetherington,
C Martin, J Quinn,
D Somerville, B McGuigan (0-1), K Coary(0-1),
M Rea, R Thornton (1-0), M Early (1-7)

Subs B Early for Hetherington (47min), N Quinn for M Rea (51 mins), W Lyons for McGeough (59mins)

They have to prove that it affected the outcome. They'll do well to achieve that.

Based on the Toyota hubcap?

What is the rugby answer?

Arsenal v Newcastle (with their 3 fit defenders) is live on RTE this Saturday at 3PM.

Henry scored the winner (another header!) for France v Greece friendly tonight. Surprisingly he played the 90 mins. Worryingly lacking the pace of 2004/5.
Hoyte scored the winner for Eng U21s but Walcott off injured.
Djourou/Senderos c**k-up for Switzerland v Brazil
Cygan scored for Villareal last week!

In football who holds the senior inter-county scoring record in one game?

Frank Donnelly (Tyrone) scored 5-8 v Fermanagh in 1959 Lagan Cup (which was a division of the NFL then)
John Joyce (Dublin) scored 5-3 v Longford in 1960
Paddy Bradley 3-9 v Waterford 2004

We all remember the 4 game saga in 1991, but what is the most replays recorded for a Championship match and who was involved?

In 1965 what was changed regarding the throw-in?

What dubious record does the 1960 Munster final hold, between Kerry and Waterford? (The Armagh/Donegal All-Ire semi is 10th on this unwanted list)

a) 6 games. Sligo/Roscommon. 1925

b) Only the midfielders were allowed to contest it.

c) Most wides in a Championship game (27).

Armagh v Galway 2001 (?) Whose pass was blocked down which ended up with Galway knocking over the winner?

Thornton v Armagh 2002. Clean through, game level. Wide. Tierney pats belly.

Was it Zin Zan Brooke? Or Bernie McCahill?

A draw is the most common scoreline?

That exact scoreline is the most common. There are far more home wins, then away wins, but for exact scorelines, that tallies most. (next is actually 1-9 each then 1-12 to 0-9)
