Ah jaysus Clarshak come off it. I'll give you a bye for talking the Cavan team up as they turned out to be tough but to say that this Glasgow team is the equivalent of a division 1 team I don't think so! The travelling and playing in Scotland are factors I'll give you that but Stewartstown will win comfortably. Is there many from the club going over?

Clarshak has gone full Jim Gavin. AGAIN 😴
Probably best to ignore at this stage

Fossa into the Munster final with a facile win
Harps will be able to give the Cliffords their full attention now

Drumlane v Stewartstown JFC final. Both teams winning their semi by  double figures. Should be a good final

Didn't think we played great actually today even though we won by 10 as there were a lot of unforced errors from us and a better team would have capitalised on them. Drumlane are seriously strong and have a massive advantage in having played in Clones twice already. Think there should be a 2 week gap between semi and final and not 6 days.

No need to keep playing yourselves down. Leave that to the management
Harps are obviously raging hot favourites to go all the way
Only the Cliffords can spoil the party at this stage but apparently yous have already been working on a system in training to try and negate their influence

Poison? Hitman? Covid?

Taking advice from down the road in Derrytresk. Remember Dromid Pearses

Drumragh knocking on the door of div2 for a while, not sure they will get through it just yet
Bad shoulder injury to one of Drumragh's main players last day V Fintona
Clogher get the nod

My parents and brother have fibrus in as part of the rural connectivity scheme.
They ran the fibre lines on the telegraph poles and then put in 2 new poles to bring it across a field. There was no issue with the civils to be fair, they were very accommodating.
Performance is good.
Service is good.
Router within the house is fine. Though I got a meshing kit for my brother as he wanted to get internet out to his garage. That's working well too.
There has been a couple of outages though which left my elderly parents without internet or phone (they got a VOIP phone as part of their contract). I'd have preferred they'd kept the phone on copper myself as they are elderly and there is little to no mobile signal where they live. So no internet, no phone.

Interested in this Fibrus thing..
They've the poles up on my road and are due to run the fibre in the Spring.
currently my BT phone line comes from a pole across the road and I'd put the BT line across the road (along with my electricity, I know, not ideal, but one road crossing was all I was prepared to pay for), I've it ducted all the way into my house and under the stairs where I've my switch and Cat5e all running back to but I genuinely don't think they could use the existing BT line to pull the fibre through.

What other options would I have?

Why could they not use the existing BT duct to pull the fibre cable in?
There's plenty of space in the standard grey 50mm duct for the copper phone cable and fibre cable I would have thought
Have you left a rope in the duct?

Tyrone TV stream quality seems to be a lot poorer today compared to earlier games in the championship

If Strabane are the 2nd best team in that division, it is worse than I thought

Donaghmore IIIs gave Stewartstown a closer game

Stewartstown putting Strabane to the sword.

Stewartstown for the All Ireland Junior? Won't be far away this time

Has anyone any experience of Fibrus yet? They are due to upgrade my area shortly. I'm joining a Hyperfast NI update event via teams this evening, anything I should look out for? Currently I have approx 17mbps download speed and 1mbps upload.

I've signed up, not installed yet - £24.99 for 300MB is better than I'm currently paying for 17MB
Have a site visit from them on Sunday morning

On thre topic of Wi-Fi boosters - I see they can provide one for £5per month! I don't know why you'd pay that rather than just buy one

Anyone move to Fibrus lately? Is their pricing still similar to the above?

Have an account with Ulster Bank ROI which is going to close and I need to switch to another bank
Anyone familiar with EBS?
Was thinking of switching to their Money Manager account which doesn't have a monthly or quarterly maintenance fee and no minimum deposit amount

Anybody know how long it takes to get registered and approved for the NI COVID app?
Can you get approved over the weekend?
I'm assuming you need it for Spain?

Shouldn't take long at all few hours I think.

Thankyou

Anyone able to put up a link to an archive of the all County league tables going back over the years?
