Will there be resignations at Croke Park over this? They either lied about health and safety or are putting  thousands of lives at risk. Neither shows that they are capable of their roles.

On the paid employees in Croke Park, who are they accountable to. Im guessing those on the CCCC are elected and can be replaced or a motion out through to remove them, but what the others who are paid employees. Who disciplines them when they step out of line? Bringing the GAA into disrupt.

P.S. Well done Kildare, held your nerve well.
No they're all appointed by the President.
Thanks Owenmoresider, wasn't sure. Clearly members on CCCC stepped out of line. Be interesting to see what the president does or doesn't do.

Well done so far Kildare, hold your nerve. Moving the goalposts by cccc is just wrong. Proud of the Gaels in Kildare, but ashamed of the suits at headquarters. The more they say the worse it looks for them.

Will say a good few Cavan and Tyrone fans will stay at home in support of Kildare. Plenty of people who I talked with this afternoon agree with Kildare's stance.

Freesat and saorsat come from two different satellites. Much of the north can't get soarview but can get soarsat with the correct dish setup.

I'm guessing with club championships in the autumn time the summer is the least disruptive to games for this work.

Not sure what they are doing, but if there is any drainage or leveling work, direct seeding wouldn't be suitable.

4.28 To be inside own 20m line when one's team is
taking a kick-out

This rule was added this year. I didn't see it implemented on Sunday by Colderick, in the kickout for Monaghan's goal it should have been blown for this rule as a there were at least 2 players inside the 20.
A lot of the reports I have read said he controlled the game well. But there was a few shouts for penalties for both sides, possible could have been another red and a black card. All of which could have had an impact on the result. Strange the perception is that he had a good game due how controlled it and not on the big calls.

I feel there is enough rules without adding more. Especially when many are happy when some rules are ignored

Monaghan slightly the better team. Their kickouts were brilliant, beggan took his time and found his man every time. When Tyrone got a score beggan always found a Monaghan man meaning Tyrone could never keep the ball down the field. Colderick ignored the new rule brought in this year about all players outside the 20 for kickouts. At least 2 Monaghan men inside for the kickout in the lead up to the Monaghan goal. What is the point in new rules if they are not going to be enforced.
Monaghan could also had penalty when Tyrone player lifted ball off the ground in the small square.
Thought both teams about the same when in possession. Monaghan found it easier in winning possessionfrom kickouts which was the difference. Problem for Tyrone, was none of changes added much extra even though a lot of starting men looked a bit of the pace due to injury/lack of match sharpness

Truly remarkable the whistleblowers have been able to get some resemblance of the truth out into the public with all they had to endure.

All the talk is off no hard border (no definition what hard means). It is interesting that they are not saying there will be no border at all. Meaning they know there will be some sort of enhanced border.
I can't see anyone in Westminster going for the default option from the EU, with a border in the sea.
Likewise I don't think many in Westminster really cares if there were to be a hard border. No Tory or labour votes at risk due to it happening.
Only the Irish government and by extension EU looking for it to remain as is.

Equally there are no votes to be lost in GB from having an Irish sea border, and preserving the GFA sounds good, so it now provides Labour with a distinct policy.

But the question is whether May can go for no deal on the basis on refusing to compromise on the Irish border. This would not be popular with British business interests, traditionally close to the Tories and doesn't look well internationally either.
May has no leverage and is in a weakened state. The EU have all the cards.
She still has the option of no deal, which means a hard border. We know it would be illogical but then it is brexit after all.

I would argue that the perception of the breakup of the union by having a border in the Irish sea would be a vote loser. All the talk this week ok an annex surely wouldn't be good for votes.
I hope you are right and that is how it happens but can't see it.

Probably best you put allegedly in front of those acquisitions. There is a trial for a reason, to determine if they are guilty or not.

Why wait 2 days before going to police and then forget someone (a woman) came into the room when it was all happening? She'd have been the first person you'd have in your prosecution team, her evidence and those others at the house should nail them

Because she was fûcking raped by two people and every statistic tells you many more cases go unreported because this process is nearly as traumatic as the event itself. Her own texts explain clearly why he was reluctant to go to the cops. It's also a scientific fact that a rape victim is a terrible witness and commonly forgets names and faces and details. It's a seriously traumatic incident and to suggest you'd have a clear-eyed recollection of it is literally insane logic.

Please have the good sense not to dress up your own lack of knowledge about what a rape victim goes through as discrepancies in her story. Are you sure you read the full story you were linked to?


With you on that Syferus

Been there twice with eurocamp. Never had a car either time.  Get the train to the Hague, bus at train station takes you to the park
