We've a French lad in our office, only moved to Ireland in December, totally converted to Gaelic Games now. Didn't require much of a push at all.

The aul text plan is working a charm. I got one today asking if I was attending "the game" at 7. Would hsve been more useful if I'd actually played for anyone in the last 5 years.

And that rrhf is why I prefer doing reviews to previews

As for what Tyrone will do to counter, I felt I'd covered their defensive situation in the first section. They'll go sweeper but Joe has issues as a low sweeper and is more comfortable in the high role.

Umm I never thought Benny was attacking my character.
#36
Benny, I'm arguing that much of the response is with how people dislike my honest assesment because I think this is going to be one sided. Had I only said Tyrone would be out of their depth without spending the preceding bulk of the column saying why it'd be a different story.

Any man who trusts my club picks is asking for the bookies to win

Hi Emmet,
I have been reading your previews since you first started posting them because I realised from the off that you have an amazing success rate-at 100% almost; it just has to be amazing.
I'm not saying this just* to annoy the Tyrone lads here as I've said so a number of previous times on this board.
I also passed a number of comments to this effect on your preview pages and I bought your book last Christmas to study previous reviews.
(You may recall this as I'm the real mayogodhelpus – not that sham who keeps annoying poor Nally Stand.) ;D
Therefore, I see no reason whatever to question your judgement when I read your latest work.
Keep the faith!
Yours etc.
Lar


* But I couldn't help sticking it in. ;D

Not been 100% this year, messed up two provincial finals. Also where was all the haterade from Tyrone when I said they'd beat Monaghan? :)

Don't forget the AI club final, Emmet ;)

Actually I backed Cork as underdogs over Kerry. Told you I wasn't 100% this year.

Hi guys,

Most of you know me as the guy/that bollix (depending on your views) who writes the Tactics not Passion columns. Well my blog is up for Best Blog Post at Blog Awards Ireland. If you could take a minute to go here http://www.blogawardsireland.com/category/best-blog-post-2/ and vote for Action81 - Waiting for the Boom: Lockdown in Cowper Downs, I'd appreciate it. In case you're wondering, the original post is about the time someone planted a bomb outside my apartment block earlier this summer.
