Credit to Watford went down fighting. 8th time United have scored 4 goals this season and have scored 10 more goals than Tottenham who are meant to be a more offensive team. Matic going off injured a big concern before the Arsenal and Man City games to come.

Would be 4-0 but for the double save from Gomes. DeGea then showed his class in added time.

Made hard work of it but Corofin eventually got over the line. Corofin should beat the best of London and Leinster next their biggest challenge will likely come in the AI final.

Brighton unlucky they didn't get a draw out of that game, they are so well organized under Chris Hughton and he has to be on ROI radar down the line.  As for United 10 home games this season 10 wins, 28 goals scored and just 2 conceded fairly decent record there.

Next score wins

And last man back

First off the rumours that was spread about Lee Keegan was disgusting. 

Surgery if all possible is avoided, He has said its because of wear and tear and Keegan is player that only had his first full season in the Mayo senior jersey in 2011 and unlike some players he played little underage football for his county matter of fact i don't think he ever played county minor so without looking to play the blame game its more than likely the over the top training that Keegan has been doing in the last 6 years that has resulted in both of his hips requiring surgery.

Put a team out to draw and you'll get bate! Shoulda went for it and rest up on last match! Only positives can be more game time for the lads coming back from injury

You didn't watch the 1st half did you?

1st half was good from United probably deserved to lead 2 or 3-0. 2nd half Basel the better team and deserved a goal but that game would have finished 0-0 if Daley Blind wasn't sleeping on the back post on that late goal.

Celtic made PSG angry by taking the early lead.

Igor Akinfeev kept his first Champions League clean sheet tonight since 1st November 2006 against Arsenal ending a run of 43 games without one.

People who post pictures of their babies every week and adding #1weekold, #2weeksold etc.

Latest was #5weeksold.

I know they're excited, but really..

To quote Sergeant Gerry Boyle:

I don't want to see it. Babies all look the same. The only time a baby doesn't look like every other baby is when it's a really ugly baby. So unless you're about to show me a photo of a really ugly baby then I don't want to see it.

[Death of the Interpros?]

Death of the Interpros?


With Connacht confirming that they no longer intend to take part, the Interprovincial Series could be dead in the water.

This year's competition was scrapped in August after Connacht revealed that they would not be putting forward a team and - speaking to RTE this morning - their provincial council secretary John Prenty may have sounded the death knell for the competition formerly known as the Railway Cup:

"We feel it has run its course and we decided at the beginning of the year that we wouldn't compete this year. I don't think we'll take part again but what the other three provinces will do again I don't know."

The Railway Cup used to attract huge crowds in its prime and it was viewed as the ultimate honour for a player to represent his province. But it has struggled to find a place in the GAA calendar since the club finals took its traditional St Patricks Day slot.

Things got even worse when it was switched from February to December, with only 150 people attending last year's football final in Carrick-on-Shannon, where Pete McGrath's Ulster took the silverware.

Those 1967 lads were bigger and stronger looking than the current Aussie crop. 20 stone athletes?

Ah Ffs I didn't mean them in any malicious way.I meant them the way Denis Law intended when he spoke at George Best's funeral,during the service in the presence of the family,when he said and I quote "I am surprised Bestie turned up today!" Like me , he wasn't mocking a death either.

The mock outrage of the usual subjects here is hypocritical.Plenty of celebrity deaths on this Board have been greeted with absolute and genuine  glee,Margaret Thatcher for example.

every time practically there's a death ure at it and you know people dont find it funny. Sick in the head you are trolling the death thread

Worst of all he is a middle aged man that should have some cop by now. He's not going to change his tune now it seems and individual like that desperately seeking attention is best ignored.
