Gives counties two or three competitive outings before the league, and a few hundred grand to Ulster Council to keep the steak dinners going for another twelve months.

21 games this year with average crowd of 1500 at £5. Handy enough £150k. Maybe more.

21 games in the McKenna cup?

Are these games ran for free? Surely there are costs too?

Flogging smuggled cigarettes around the Athletic Grounds makes Armagh County Board a fair few quid extra.

Cigarette smoking & sport....a good link up.

Played against ye a few times.
You'd never know what county a lad was from.
One day Longford, next day Tyrone or Limerick

Ah ye would know rightly. The Limerick boy would know the rudiments of the game, probably. The other 2 wouldn't know 1 end of a hurl from the other.

Feckin Poly students at it again, before they go back home to their mammies for Christmas.

Would Jim Gavin win an All Ireland with any other county ?

Give him a few bob, bring him up to Belfast & let's see how he gets on with the current exciting crop in Antrim.

A game changer for Dublin.

Brilliant manager.

Opens up the 2020 Championship a little...

Does it really? Let's not waste time - who's going to win the All Ireland in, say.....2070?

So everything goes tits up for the Irish language act? We have no assembly because of the Irish language act, education, nhs, funding, social welfare and everything else a local government wants to provide can't be done because of the Irish language act?

Get a majority and push it through, until then work the system.

Substitute 'denial of equality' for 'Irish Language Act' and your post will make more sense.

Now who in n.i is actually being denied equality?

People who wish to conduct  business with their government in a language spoken here for 2 millenia.

So about 5 people.

6 - if you include Gregory Campbell.

Kuenssberg will interview Johnson instead of Neil on Friday

Donald interviews Boris. 2 complete twats together.

Clive James aged 80

At one stage, his TV review columns in The Observer were required reading every Sunday, along with his memoirs. He was a seriously funny man in his heyday.

t_mac on to ignore list. Absolute knob.

This entire page now reads 'you are ignoring this user'. Bit tedious, but saves me having to wade through tons of tripe.

Elisha is a fine hardworking politician who is underated by many.

In fairness - it's pretty difficult to see how you could be both @ the same time.

Any truth in the rumour that Mr. O'Muilleoir is going to throw his toys out of the pram & do a Prince Andrew?

Ya reckon? Although it was a small ball game championship match, I can well remember officiating at Shaw's Road & hearing an "everybody in" instruction being issued by an ex-county player. 

It was always his practice to drop in to the referee's room for a one to one afterwards, in any case.

Too many of them learning their trade in The Holylands these days.

This is perhaps only the second time Buckingham Palace has arranged for a bad car crash.

Duke of Edinburgh @ his old tricks again?
