That would, at least, explain things

I don't like complaining about GAA coverage because but the preview was an embarrassment. Could have been put together by someone who has never even watched a game - "keeper's kick outs are good, defenders are tight, midfield is going well and forwards are getting scores, Mayo will have to play well to win". What on earth is the point?
It wouldn't be so bad except these are two of the most fascinating teams in the country in terms of preparation and tactics, especially given where they were in the recent past. Would it really be that hard to grab a little before and after footage, show what both managers have implemented since their arrival, how their gameplan works and what that could lead to on Sunday?
You'd get more insight from an alco down the local, inane rambling, especially Davis.

Shocking, shocking news this morning. A fine footballer and more importantly a real gentleman.
Captained his club to All-Ireland Intermediate title, and would have led them out for Fermanagh senior final in a fortnight, played Sigerson Cup with St Mary's, played for his county in league and Championship and represented Ireland underage on International Rules duty. He died today aged 24. He done more in that time than most people can do in a lifetime.
Rest in peace

I'd be happy with one relegation.

Ted definitely worth a watch. Enjoyed it better than Hangover or 21 Jump Street - like minded films - which were a letdown.
Best jokes all sex/fart/shit related but still amusing coming from a teddy bear.

He was pretty pissed off earlier judging by his responses. Former Glens star Gary Hamilton not a Knight fan either

I bet you that everyday Leon Knight's mother wishes she had a time machine & a condom. He really is the sperm she shoulda swallowed.

16 clubs in 10 years tells it's own tale too

You create an account and click to follow people/clubs you are interested in and hear what they have to say. You can post yourself if you think the world needs to hear your own words of wisdom. All very simple and immediate.

I know he's a total kn**ker but the exchange between Leon Knight and Jamie O'Hara this last few hours in unreal. Serious abuse for O'Hara's wife Danielle Lloyd.

Not in a great position to judge the structures at school and underage levels so will leave that to others. Hard to analyse anything long term anyway considering I'm still baffled by what happened one day ago.
Still don't understand how that game was lost. We were cruising but one setback and the wheels totally fell off. In any case, I'm not sure what we would have gained from an outing against Kildare or whoever next time out.
Sticking to the positives we have at least managed to get out of Division Four for next year, will be playing against a much higher standard of opposition with a few interesting derbies (Monaghan, Cavan, even Meath close by) so we should learn more from that than travelling to Ruislip, Dr Cullen Park and Dungarvan.
Eoin Donnelly has been a real find, Daniel Kille looks quite comfortable at that level and Conor Quigley had another very good season overall. We've also learned a lot about a few others and will be better placed next year. Hopefully management and core of key players stay around.

I've been asked by an elderly relation to get a digital box for the switchover for their home in south Fermanagh area. I know nothing of the transmitters. Should I buy Freeview box in the north given that they pretty much only watch RTE TG4 and TV3, occassionally BBC NI? Will that even work or should I get Saorview box? Any advice appreciated.

Should have been out before now.
From Impartial Website

Fermanagh Liaison Officer Ger Treacy has confirmed that Seamus Quigley has left the panel ahead of the All Ireland Qualifiers Round One on June 30.
Quigley was Fermanagh's chief source of scores during the McKenna Cup and National League but rumours abounded in the run in to the Ulster Championship clash with Down that the player had missed training sessions as well as a challenge match.
The Roslea man did feature against the Mournemen as a second half substitute with Fermanagh manager Peter Canavan stating that the player had sustained a hamstring injury a week prior to the game which had ruled him out of starting the contest.
The player did not attend training on Tuesday night when the squad met up for the first time since the Down defeat, and Treacy has explained the Quigley has withdrawn from the squad although the door has been left open for the talismanic forward to return in the future.
"I can confirm that Seamus Quigley has left the 2012 Senior Championship panel," said Treacy. "Seamus is no longer in a position to commit to the panel and has therefore withdrawn from the squad. The Management Team would like to thank Seamus for his contribution this year and hope that he will be available to the panel some time in the future."

Is this definitely deferred?
Load of shite, but it's the GAA's fault. They insist on only a certain number of games being shown live, an attempt to increase attendances.
Not much BBC can do about it.
