General discussion / Liveline meltdown
May 01, 2007, 03:00:48 PM
Some Liveline today.
Alan 'Fatpuss' Bradley in argument with the Sunday Worst's Paul Williams.
All the innerciddy villians ringing in slating Williams and making out their brudders etc to being one step away from sainthood. One villian even rang in from Portlaoise before the mobile was whipped offa him.
Depressing radio

GAA Discussion / Offaly to lose point won in Longford??
February 28, 2007, 01:16:02 PM
From Colm Keys in today's Indo:
"RISING Offaly football star Ken Casey is facing the prospect of a lengthy suspension if it is proved that he was ineligible for last Sunday's league clash with Longford.
The match ended in a draw, with Casey playing an influential role as Offaly picked up their third point of the campaign. But it has transpired that the player should not have been on the field because he had been reported for verbally abusing a referee in a Leinster under-21 first round match on the previous week against Carlow. Meath referee Joey Curley reported the player for the abuse after sending him off on a second yellow card.
Casey was offered a personal hearing last week, or the option to have the charge dealt with straight away.
Under new rules, by opting for the personal hearing, which took place at the Leinster Council Headquarters on Monday night, the player was not technically eligible to play league football on Sunday.
The Leinster Council last night issued their judgement on the verbal abuse case and suspended the player for four weeks, back-dating the ban to February 18.
Now, if Casey is found to be ineligible for the Longford match, he could be facing another even bigger suspension, possibly for six months.
If Longford object to the result and are successful, they will be given both points from the match.
Failure to register an objection could still leave Offaly pointless from their trip to Longford.
The matter will now be placed in the hands of Croke Park for judgement and is being viewed as a strong test case for the new disciplinary procedures."
A turnip for the books......however I would not be confident in our County Chairman getting this properly aired.

GAA Discussion / Artificial Sun in Croke Park!!
December 29, 2006, 08:01:11 PM
Went on the tour of Croke Park today. 20 lids for the four of us. Guided tour of the a dressing room, premium level, corporate suite etc from a chirpy Dub 'on message'.
Some points to share:
1. Dressing room table has some serious damage to it from a few hurls. Big lump ate out of it as well. Tour guide said it was probably Brian Cody
2. Very funny seeing 5 bucket seats on their ownio installed on The Hill
3. Floodlights are the most powerful in the world. I am definitely going to Dublin v Tyrone game.
4. Restaurant in museum had only tay and coffee as grumpy auld chef went on the batter last night and pulled a sickie. Nobody had spare keys to release the crisps etc from the safe
The most amazing thing is shown on the picture below. Yep - for that all-over tan the sod had its own sunlamp to keep the grass growing all year round.
So - all in all, with the browsing in the Museum not really for the little uns but I could spend a week in there, well worth the time and effort.
Well done boys and girls in Croker and will someone get a new table made of marble or something.

GAA Discussion / At What age did you peak as a Footballer/Hurler?
November 30, 2006, 10:52:52 PM
For me it was minor. Won a rake of hurling schoolboy/U14/juvenile and minor hurling medals (easy enough in Longford) but hit the payload in 1984 with a minor football championship medal ( as last sub )
Played one senior football game for my beloved Mostrim in 1984 agin Coyningham Rd Bus Garage who were in the town on the piss and were up for a challenge.
Also played on Nov 1 1984 when all GAA clubs in Ireland celebrated the 100th anniversary of the founding of the GAA. (For the record Wolfe Tones (us) played Clonguish)
So - what was/is your peak of achievement?
I reckon on a scale on 1-10 I'm at 1!
