I wish I was. Seems the Co Board "top table" want Maughan to stay.......they need locking up

Hopefully you feel better after all that

You see Scalder over here in Connacht .....we almost totally surrounded by waster,    )

Certainly applies to Roscommon - almost totally surrounded by WASTERS !!!

IIt should be a tempting job to an outside manager.....

Every journey on Dublin's DART trains is subsidised to the tune of an average €1.00 per trip.
Dublin Bus serving 1.3m people gets €81m subsidy. Bus Eireann serving 3.1 m and having many more uneconomic routes gets €30m.
Who is subsidising who?
My sister lives in a town in Co Kildare. The people have to hire contractors at their own expense to cut the grass on the greens.
A few miles up the road in Dublin the local Council cuts all the Greens in Estates FREE.
Yet tax rates are the same in all 26 Counties.
Knock Airport was knocked (sorry !!!) when it was proposed as I'm sure Shannon was too but wasnt it right to go ahead wih them?
A Western Rail corridor would be a boon to Tourism,commerce -save a lot of roads, and would enable a lot of small towns along the route to become more attractive to investment and potential residents.
But of course it would be easier to close up the oul West altogether and have an Interpretive Centre in Athlone.
Meanwhile everyone could live in Tower Blocks in Dublin/Cork/Galway and 5 or 6 other places and the Govt could save a fortune.

"Contract"

How can an amateur have a "contract" ??

if you wanna talk shite head in with the rest of the lads to the cheeky dub posts as its full of gobshites in there!

Jasus who pissed on your parade ya b*****x.
I presume "shite" talk by "gobshites" = anything or anyone who doesnt buy into the "Dublin are wonderful" line.
Now answer the question -how can an amateur have a "contract"?

Wasnt there talk in the papers some time ago that Pádraic Duffy seemed to be getting groomed for the post?
I suppose the question is will it go to a volunteer County Board/Provincial Council type or to one of the Paid Officials in Croke Park.
Mind you with the GAA's track record since 1903 you can be sure they will make the right choice.

"Contract"

How can an amateur have a "contract" ??

Presumably 6 Co Prods dont join or partake in GAA activities because they dont like the fact that the GAA is and has been unashamedly promoting "Irish and nothing else" games and culture.
I presume Unionist Protestants in the 6 North Eastern Counties dont like that or want to be associated with such.

.Just wondering what would it take a true dub to make the move outside the pale and what are the benifits of living in Dublin.   

1 -A Job
2 -loadsa well paid jobs

Wait till the Dubs/Kildar/Meaths/Corkies amd others rich enough to pay some tax  find they are paying for new Roads in the North !!!

The poor whest, always been ripped of by the big auld dubs 

What's "Whest"
Anyway 6 or 7 billion on light railways/metros or whatever in Dublin - noproblem seems the dearer the better.
Then when a group presented plans to the Govt about reopening the Western Rail corridor from Sligo to Limerick at a cost of €250 m. the then Minister (Brennan - a herrin choker -shame !!!) nearly laughed in their faces and muttered something about maybe a commuter service into Galway City.
