To help the weaker Counties  

 

Niblock thinks the Anglo-Celt is the most precious piece of silverware in Ireland. Odd take.

Mean nothing to anyone from Tipp, Cork, Mayo, Galway, Dublin ........

All-Ireland B semi final result. Winning score deep into added time.

Down 2-10 Mayo 0-15

Thank god for that. Don't know what the point of this competition is?

It's a shame a majority of Dublin Supporters won't be able to say ''I was there when Dublin won 14 in a row Leinsters'' 

I doubt even most of them watched it on the TV.

[professional setup]

Was tight for 55 mins decent effort from Louth but the Dubs will likely win comfortably now.

The Dubs are hard to beat at home.

It's a big help to be playing at home no doubt about it.

Feel sorry for Louth as they have a lot of good players but they just can't compete against a professional setup for 70+ mins. Not many other teams can either.

Explain how the Dubs setup differs to other counties....? Leaving aside CP

GDO's in every club.
Jobs for the boys (that are often not really job

Look at the money Dublin county board get from the GAA. More than all the rest put together.

OK, but what are the Dublin senior players, management doing that's different to what Louth are doing, Donegal, Derry, Roscommon in preparing for Championship?

They are a 3 in a generation group of players. Time will pass and Dublin will fall back to the crowd. 

Is it 17 or 18 Leinster Medals for Cluxton?

19 Leinster titles in 20 years.

I feel sorry for the GAA. They are stuck with this biased mess. Corporate boxes, premium tickets mean they are blackmailed into Dublin having all these home matches. Dublin supporters don't travel either, despite all the myths about this. This is Dublin's 8th home game this year!

[Can't be letting the public actually decide!]

Clearly the Croatian song was by far the best one there, as was reflected by the public vote. However, the juries decided otherwise, so really it's all about pushing an agenda. Just a confirmation of what was probably always the case. Or certainly recently. Can't be letting the public actually decide!

The public wants what the public gets...

....But I want nothing this society's got

Israel considered the most hated country in Eurovision... yet ended up with one of the highest volume of public votes.

Your daily reminder that social media is not an accurate reflection of reality. 

Meanwhile in the UK.....

I don't know what to say about Israel finishing 2nd in the Public vote in Ireland!

Should have won that but left too many chances out there. Interesting to see what happens next for these boys.

The worrying thing was there was no Graham Geraghtys, Ollie Murphy's or Tommy Dowds on show today. No ruthlessness!
