I'm convinced Syferus is Paddy Joe Burke.

he's from west roscommon, has seemingly close ties to bridgids, and is buck mad, but not in a harmful way. Its obvious enough, syferus is shane curran

Tom is heading to Breffni on Sunday

its not that long ago that offaly won Leinster from Division 4

and sligonian you do have the comfort of knowing that relegation to DIV 4, with a route of London and Leitrim to the connacht final did us no harm at all in 2010. But all that being said, Antrim won't take anything from monaghan so i'd expect you'll be safe enough

On another note the Connacht GAA need to stop fixing U21 fixtures on the same weekend as NFL games.

I'm open to correction but i presume its largely due to the lack of enough suitable floodlit venues for staging these games, kiltoom castlebar and cloone being the only ones that come to mind. And of these parking at Cloone and Kiltoom isn't ideal for large crowds at night games

jaysus rossfan you'd want to stop talking us up like that

For roscommon the Meath game is pivotal, a defeat and its difficult to see us getting anything from the three games remaining against ulster opposition. On that basis a win for sligo over wicklow will see them junp us.

There's worse to come next week, royalers.

Syferus, in the honour of god, will you stop making a show of us..

The voice of GAA results for so many decades, Seán Óg has passed on. In the days before iphones and twitters he was the only source of the club results every Sunday night. May he rest in peace.

Liam Hayes..Out of our Skins..is the benchmark for GAA autobiogs....reprinted now as well.

Agreed, Out of our skins is in a league of its own. Liam Hayes has this year written 'True Grit' - Sylvie Linnane's autobiography - its a good read but not in the same league.

gerry fahey seems to be the only name in the frame - not sure what to make of that to be honest

local word is that Gerry Fahey is to be appointed

I see on the Herald today that Gerry Fahey is in line to take over.
