for after the games alot of county teams use this Focusx2 program (tyrone where the first in 2003!). I am doing a sports degree and it is easy to use. i have done it for my club team looking at shots attempted, result of shot, area of pitch shot was taken, what type of pass was received for them to be able to get the shot off. basically you can long at everything, catches, who wins breaking balls, passing etc. depends on what you club manager wants to look at.

this might of be of interest, as i am studying in scotland i wont be able to make it, hope there is one later in the season as i am the analyst for antrim asenior hurlers this year using focusx2. and we need the analysis!!

QuoteMicha Richards already has legendary status by saying "f**k" in his first ever interview live on the beeb and getting told off for it too

yeah i seen that, he had his jeans around his kness looking like he was coming straight outta compton!! ghetto superstar

QuoteIf Micah Richards has what Gary Neville has when he's 31 he'll have done pretty well for himself

I think gary neville doesn't get the credit he deserves, its prob just because he is a whinging heur but has nearly 90 caps for england.

even phil (what an own goal) neville has near 60.

how i do not know

QuoteRichards is raw at best, great engine and enthusiasm but absolutely no positional sense which is quite essential for a defender

if gary neville had what micah richards has at 18 he would have went on to be the best right back in the world. positional sense will come with experience as the more games he plays. he is a beast of a young fella

QuoteIt was the Tipp one, the club he transfered to is right beside his new house.  He had a big falling out with his club as well, and he was dropped for the county final or the provincial final I'm not sure.  They lost as well so it wasn't too smart

here is the proof. dont want to say i told you so but eoin from tipp is a personal friend and he would never leave mullinahone. he was going to stay even when his brother was going to leave.

QuoteWas it Eoin Kelly from Waterford who moved to an intermediate club within the same vicinity as his original club

the one from waterford moved from his club mount sion to passage west/east over a dispute about being dropped in the munster championship final beacuse he apparently he was drinking too much when training for the club final


QuoteThought it was Eoin Kelly from Tipp who made the controversial transfer

eoin from tipp's brother paul was going to move to ahane in limerick after falling out with mullinahone. his cousins, the morans from the limerick county team are from ahane. all got sorted out though. eoin wasnt going to move

rennes university has competed in the last two british university championships. they had a squad of all french players. last year they were not much good, but drew with cambridge university. this year in london the improvement was unbelievable. they won a couple of games against stirling and some other university. they could play at junior level easily at a county like antrim. the work going on there is fantastic and needs to be recognised

bars are quite cheap, went for a few days last summer. the irish bars are the most expensive bars around as they trade on nostalgia.

dont personally understand why the constant need to go on a holiday and look for a bar thats exactly like your local at home. the local bars are alot cheaper. me and 5 mates sat drinking for about 6 hours in one pub and it cost about £7 each at the end. best thing to do is just go in and ask for a beer and they will give you whatever beer they do on draught. they are all quality (especially staropramen!!)

QuoteThe famous 5-story night club must be experienced. 5 storys of a warehouse which gave you the authentic feeling for how it must have felt working in a skoda factory behind the iron curtain.

fantastic club, got every taste in it. you can get illegal taxis outside the club but bargain them down. dont pay any more than 350/ 400 krona for a 15 min journey. just tell them you will tell the police on them if they refuse!! that gets them quick enough.

i would be a tool to compare their footballing ability but did  I say that.

stick from away fans is fine, not as if i havent giving ferguson/ ricksen abuse in the past but getting constant abuse from your own fans is wrong. what does that contribute to the team. telfer or mo camara didnt get much abuse and they were shocking.

I am not a lennon worshipper but so called celtic fans who come to games to give abuse to their own players pisses me off. dont even deserve a ticket to a game if that is all they want to contribute

QuoteCould you see Billy McNeil or Paul McStay at this lark? I don't think so


did you see mcneill or mcstay get that kind of abuse? even from their own fans? I don't think so. some celtic fans piss me off. your supposed to get behind your team. did you see any fans going mad at Boruc? it was celtics fault they got beat in that game, but sure lets take it out on Lennon because he is the easy target.

roy keane fought in pubs non stop when he was at Man United but he didn't get any abuse from fans?
