your doing a mighty job Dixie will be up at the Oaks next week with some clothes,great to hear of the responce you are getting from GAA people and clubs.

fair play to him at least he is making some sort of gesture,if everyone did the same it would at least save a few jobs

 Great idea Dixie please PM me your details and I will make donation but also get some children's clothes delivered down.

 was changed from Sat to Monday to show on setanta then when Liverpool and Everton drew on Sunday it was changed back to Saturday to accommodate replay,nightmare when you have flights and hotel booked for the Monday.

The record is nice and a fair achievement in the circumstances. VDS and Vidic are the only ones to have played all 11 games. Who has played the most of the rest - the much maligned John O'Shea who has started 9 of the 11 games. He mustn't be that rubbish so.

The Tevez/Berbatov partnership is really going well and Carrick is hitting his best form too. Giggs' brilliant recent form continues much to my amazement and delight. The two goals should bring Ronaldo on a bit. He was much better than at the weekend when hampered by a bug. In the end it could have been anything but 5-0 will do just fine. Brown, Park and Rio all back too.

Scott Carson is complete rubbish. How he continues to get paid to play in the top flight is amazing. Did he play for England as well? His one man appeal after being assaulted by fresh air when dropping the ball to Tevez was hilarious. His team mates didn't want to know.

Rob Stiles is a funny ref too. WBA felt hard done by but he made loads of bad/questionable decisions for both teams. GNev should have had a pen. The sending off could be viewed as a bit harsh though exactly what Robinson was trying/hoping to do is beyond me. He gave the ref a decision to make when he didn't need to - the challenge was at least a yellow. If he stayed on his feet he might easily have got the ball.

Big game again next Monday* I think v. Everton.

its changed to Sat evening

central in ballycastle one of the nicest and cleanest bars I have ever bee in and the food is first class

was in milltown when stone attacked and it was scary,but the two visions of the troubles that will always stay with me are Mrs Sands outside the jail saying her son was dying and that auld bastard Thatcher talking on the tv saying it was up to the prisoners if they lived or died it was not her problem

yes

The younger generation think it was mad, but to us it was part of growing up. Although we have a "normal" society today, society in general isn't what it used to be.

Very true, there was less crime, drugs etc in South Armagh before the ceasefire

Not unless you count diesel smuggling, cattle rustling etc. as crime. We do where I'm from. That's not counting the various murders in the area.

yeah can see you don't approve of violence Tony

have to agree a good programme last night about Kevin a great Gael , fine role model and big loss to Antrim football,hope Derry dont hold on to him too long and we soon see him back in his home county

was very impressed with Antrim's effort on Sunday and thought Kieran McGourty had a fine game,things looking a bit brighter for the year ahead.
