Fair play to you Abbeysider, i don't think some people realise the sacrafices the players make. Sure most of us would love to wear the jersey, but a lot of skillfull players have stopped playing when they were younger because they could not give the committment and wanted to head out weekends with their friends or head off on holidays. i know a lot of the present panel and the commintments they have made for club and county over the years is huge.They give the best days of their lives for the love of the game and the hope of getting a celtic cross.I know myself even if i had the talent which i don't i would not give the committment as it would be too much of a sacrafice.

hello exiled Gael we could be neighbours as i bought in convoy in october 2005 not 2006 as i had allready stated. As j70 said its a nice rural village with 2 pubs,a school, football field and shops all within walking distance of many of the newly built estates.What i have noticed in my estate is that most of the houses are occupied  very few are left vacant and my opinion is that people are now looking to buy in Convoy rather than Letterkenny as the houses are cheaper and its only 15-20 minutes drive away,also there are a lot of Northern reg cars in the estates so people must be commuting to work in NI.     

Hello exiled Gael did you by it as an investment or to live in, i myself bought a  4 bedroom semi not a million miles away from raphoe in October 2006 , i have rented it out since no problem ,quality of the finish was top class and everthing was included in the purchase price. I could not believe the price, if i was to buy the same house in mayo it would have cost me another €80 to €90k.   

Yes Ballagh are the up and coming team in the county at the moment, we were very lucky to win the county title against them last year, especially the drawn game they should have won it but they just didn't have that bit of experience.They play a lovely brand of football letting in the fast ball to Moran and regan.The only thing going against them is knowing the way the championship is run in mayo the county semis and final wont be played untill october and the heavy ground won't suit them.
Don't rule Cross out for the 3 in a row there  still life left in the old dog yet.
