Post by: Don Johnson on January 18, 2013, 12:32:47 PM
Anyone up for getting a board mini-league going again, wasn't there prizes usually? They had Petey Harte in the forward line and defence yesterday! It's changed now though.

I might give this a go. Be better if it was nationwide and got to do all the league's. Haven't tried to pick a team yet but looks likeyou can pick as many players from one county as you want?

I didn't know that so thanks for pointing it out.

However I don't understand the logic of the position. They publish a paper and a website and they said at the outset that they would update their paper regularly but their own website less regularly. This seems ridiculous

I shall now cease to read their website.

I'd imagine its to get people buying the paper. Last time someone complained on here it went up a day later so they're obviously reading the thread.
