I'm having 6kwp solar PV fitted next week. It will more than half my electric bill, provide £800-£900 direct payment into the bank as a government reward and heat my water while at work  :)

I don't believe that for a second. Never trust a salesman. I'd love to hear ur feedback in 12 months time. So many people have been duped into these things!
I'll know soon enough, it has a monitoring system. What will they think of next 😴

As a Derry man I was disappointed, looked like the Ballinderry management tried to win it from the line. Kevin MC Guckian at fullback was wrong he dictated midfield all year. Nevin should have been in there where he lorded all year. Sorry.

Tyroneman, if you have the pain in your hip and travels down the leg to your knee and foot it's probably sciatic nerve problem. Martin Donnelly in ballymena may be of help to you. I've been to him and had great results. One visit.

Paul played football and hurling for Derry, club hurling for Kevin Lynchs, club football for St Canices Dungiven.
Fiona is a Castlewellan woman.
As stated above prayers and donations for the cause will be greatly appreciated.

Not when its clashes with the International Rules which was decided months ago too, that it was known it would be played on the 19th and 26th. Play the Championship earlier and finish a week or two earlier, instead of the needless clash next weekend.


They don't know months ago if they will have anyone involved nevermind if their club will be still in championship.

I'm talking about County boards, of course they would have had a fair idea some of their Co players might have been involved, Michael Murphy  has been a been a regular with the International Rules.
Neil McGee has played before too, etc. Other counties similar.

So county boards should plan around something that mite not happen.
you,ll need to consult with jim mc guinness first !!

I'd stick with that, Bateson is too good of a player not to have in midfield, can run at pace all day. Three man full forward line all day long, O Boyle for his athleticism and Bradley and Kielt as scoring threats.
Eight / nine men defending is sufficient if they know what they are supposed to do. Pacy half forwards for your quick out ball (all good ball winners) and all capable of scoring.
fair enough about Bateson for Mf.
However you will never convince me that a three man FF line is the way to go. If you'd played there (apart from being a 38 year old last playing days type job corner forward selection and not getting nosebleeds when you get into the last 35 yards of he pitch) youd possibly understand why more space for the two attackers and more space for defenders to look after is a huge advantage to the forwards and given the right men who can score and take on their men - you will destroy a FB line IF you get enough decent supply into them. It might be the best tactic to use in Hurling but imo not in football!
Anyhow we can debate this next time I see you !

BTW I wish lads would stop picking Fergal Doc, Kev McGuck etc - these lads have retred and due to inj etc and over the past couple of seasons were not as good as their previous brilliant best.
Sure we could name Tohill on the team there as well if we are to continue on in the same vein !!
leave them boys retired and alone. they owe Derry nothing!

Two man full forward line depends on quick transfer of the ball from defence into the attacking area, something Derry have been incapable of for a long time. Most teams play with a permanent sweeper as well  ::)

If its to continue we'd need to find a way of making it more competitive if we want to promote it. Sunday was an exhibition game played very loosely until the last 7/8 minutes when the result was in the balance. The players want to play for the recognition and status that it brings and they put a lot of effort in but noone goes for loose ball as though their life depended on it. For that reason, I don't think I'd go back as its not the type of football that excites me.

You can say what you like about that int rules shite, and I do, but as bad as it is to watch when the ball is thrown in the players play hard.

Except the Australians, who gathered up 5 days before the last series and went surfing for three of them  ;)
When they play hard, Ireland whinges.

If you do go for underfloor heating, think about using a lightweight screed at first floor level on top of timber joists, will create the mass required for u/f heating to work efficiently. Also has the added benefit of sound dampening.

that FB line would be a 'glenshane inthe snow' type scenario for opponents alright !
you forgot to pick the other half of Dungiven though!

I have thought of sticking Lynch in MF - at least for now- too.If Kielt plays it should be hf line and put someone who can play 3rd MF in the corner.Would swap bateson and mccamley also.

I'd stick with that, Bateson is too good of a player not to have in midfield, can run at pace all day. Three man full forward line all day long, O Boyle for his athleticism and Bradley and Kielt as scoring threats.
