was going to try o'neills this evening but I see that they only stock their own brand of gloves, worth a shot anyway

Does anyone know where in the North (Belfast preferably) that you can buy Murphy's gloves or are they just sold online? in a bit of a rush to get them at the minute

Anyone think of a few suggestions for beers on a Thursday night in Belfast that doesn't include the Bot or Duke of York (not that I don't like either!) All suggestions welcome 

Well lads, any word re high profile Doire player getting caught drink driving recently?

Joe McMahon haircut all the way i thought?

Highlighted my tips for championship first round. Think there will be a few draws in throughout the grades but these teams will prevail. Some tasty draws in each grade. Rock v Derrytresk stands out as a great tie but Derrytresk are rumoured to be loosing a few big men to USA over the summer and for this reason I think Rock will win easy. Brackaville Dungannon is also an interesting tie both teams hoping for a run to sustain intermdiate football. Strabane v Pomeroy will be a great game and I think Strabane could push very hard for promotion this year. Dromore v Errigal and Clonoe V Omagh are the obvious ties of the whole first round draws they could go either way but i think both teams i picked are just going to get over the line.
I will tip Loughmacrory for Junior championship outsiders being newtownstewart
Moortown for Intermediate outsiders being strabane
senior championship toss up between clonoe and dromore outsiders carrickmore. Carrickmore are rebuilding but a few of their players have still got a dying kick in them and it could be enough to win a championship. I dont think clonoes league form is anything to worry about come first round day they have all to play and word from the camp is they have been experimenting in league games thats why results have been poor so if they are not concerned then neither am I. Dromore are the team they have been over the last 10 years and plenty of miles on the clock to go yet plus they will be reeling after last year too.

Really???

What about the poor imitations



Needed to be a hot dry swealtering day for them to grip (i.e the day you didnt need them). Plenty wore these as well

All the mikasa glove (as well as these) did was kill the ball rather than grip it

Thought they actually were site/gardening/not football gloves??

Some craic wearing them on a soggy day once the elastic went in the wrists.
You had to hold your hands up like a surgeon to stop them falling off.

Using an elastic band was my method of choice!

They were some job Jinxy, some plucking done withe them!

Not sure if this has been covered before, just trying to gauge opinion as to the best football gloves to buy. Alot of brands out on the market now, but many of them seem to wear very quickly after drying out. All comments welcome

Anyone know when the minor league quarter finals are scheduled for?
