This is one of the saddest days in the history of Ireland

You wouldn't be overstating things, by any chance. Nothing like a sore loser.

68 days, 8 hours and 51 minutes.

Is this true? I won't believe it until I hear something official.

I said give us Barabas, not Thomas!

When I started this thread, I hadn't expected this end!

lets face facts here, Armagh have exited the championship before Down for the last two years

That's a Down "fact", i.e. bollix.

Give us Barabas, or even Tommy Lyons!

Hang on, I thought reaching a quarter final via a provincal win was considered a disadvantage these days.....  or does that just apply to everybody else except Kerry.

No it applies to Cork as well.

Just on RTE tv news. Thats the third earthquake this week.

Paddy O'Rourke definitely gaining ground, apparently. Are there any bookies open?

Rio can clamp down on crime for a few weeks, just as Beijing clamped down on pollution.

Since Offaly ending the 5 in a row, only Armagh have won an AI with less than 100,000 to work with. A recent discussion of football mentioned that Kerry and Tyrone had kept Cork and Dublin down, places with large populations. Places with an even smaller population than Armagh have a huge task, Laois might have made it, but are going off the boil now.

The most we can hope for is that someone who hasn't won for years to come through and Mayo and Kildare should be strong contention.

Some houses in the South have declined quite a bit, but are not yet at Tyrone prices!

....

A SANDYMOUNT house that had to be sold to repay the debts of its property investor owners fetched over €1.9 million yesterday after it was withdrawn from auction.

John Mara, and his partner Clare Murphy, have outstanding property debts with Irish Nationwide amounting to over €5.7 million. They were forced to sell the house, Chiang Mai, at Claremont Road, which they had bought and renovated as an investment in 2006.

The couple paid more than €2 million for the Victorian house, and spent an estimated €1 million in renovations. At the same time, they invested in a €2 million property in Croatia, which they have also pledged to sell, along with furniture worth €60,000 in a bid to reduce their debts.

John Mara, the son of former Fianna Fáil press officer PJ Mara, intended to sell Chiang Mai in 2007. When he put it on the market for €5.5 million, property prices plunged and, despite subsequent price cuts, no buyer could be found.

We wouldn't want Ballybay in any case.

We should just take over Monaghan.

I knew a fella in Dublin that had no mot, he went on one of them websites and found a decent bird.
