I know a lot of you will be mad to get to this. You can read about the tragedy and the Gearld Fearon appeal at www.gfmemorialday.com. I am sure youhave read about it in the news over the last two years. A lot more names to be added that I will update, anyone likely to head?

In case you cant see the writing it is Armagh v An allstar select managed by Joe Kernan and Mickey Harte:

Ref:Pat McEnaney

Players: include : Kierna McGeeney, Conor Mortimer, Graham Geraghty, Paddy Bradley, Seanie Johnston, Paul Barden, Karol Mannion, Eamon O'Hara, Ross Munnelly, Brian Dooher, BRyan Cullen, Marty McGrath.

Saturday, October 18th. Dromintee.

Golden Oldies too - names to be revealed.

Just out of curiosity - anyone off the board likely to attend?

Over the Bar · September 26, 2008, 08:43:02 AM

I'll be there, Dia na thoiseach.

would some of them lads including pat mcenaney not be in australia?

corn02 · September 26, 2008, 11:01:27 AM

That is a development that may come to pass. Of course noone has been selected yet but off the list you would expect Bradley and maybe Mortimer to be missing, but, as I said noone is selected.

corn02 · September 26, 2008, 11:08:43 AM

Of course the Rules are not until the next week so they may not have left.

Over the Bar · September 26, 2008, 12:16:29 PM

means God Willing (or Deo Volenti as they say in the Da Vinci code!)

corn02 · September 26, 2008, 12:18:00 PM

Too cultural for me. Should be a good day. Oldies line-up looking well too and Rob Carney will be along aswell.

Achooo...oh sorry I sneezed and a brassneck plug came out.

Sounds like a good event corn, good luck with it, I'd say it'll be a big success.

Any more information on it corn?

corn02 · September 29, 2008, 06:07:35 PM

Still waiting on a few confirmations Whack. I do know that there will be a lot more Tyrone ones than McConneel, Dooher and Harte, not sure on names though.

Maybe out of the country too long, but who or what is the gerald fearon trust? If Benny is playing I'll get at least 6 to go.
