True, but if you read my post you'd have noticed that I never mentioned the A5.  So not entirely sure of the relevance here.  ::)
My point had nothing to do with your comment let me assure you, rather it was directed at the poster who started the wind up which, as you pointed out, prompted some to take the bait. Sorry for any confusion there.

This one got a couple of decent bites anyway  ;D ;D ;D ;D
It did indeed. I'm from Armagh and thankfully I don't use the road on a regular basis, however the A5 is a very raw nerve for many people, particularly those who live close to it and have either lost loved ones or live in fear of losing loved ones, therefore I don't think it's fair for anyone to use it for wind up purposes.

Jesus after experiencing Clones for the last 2 matches, it just brings home the need to build the new Casement Park as soon as possible

Lovely jubbly. Topped off with the wannabe hard man Rian O'Nell missing a pen!
Classy comment there. Nice to see someone gracious in victory

As an Armagh supporter all I'm interested in is seeing that poor girl get her life sorted out and get her children back from this bully who has clearly ruined her life

I've been told on very good authority that there will be  a statement tomorrow and Rory Gallagher will step down

Maybe the players can all come out in t shirts and support him a la Liverpool and Suarez, or they could keep him in the squad and get him sponsored, a la the Watty's and McFaul.

Glen making a symbolic gesture to a squad member who has been a massive part of what they've achieved over the years in both underage and senior hardly that big of a deal. Don't really see the need for cheap shots on it tbh.
Mmm, I'm not sure I would have wanted my Club to defend that given the background to the case in question

I think that could leave them safe now. Not looking good for Leeds and Leicester
32 isn't enough
You're right but sitting with 32 and looking the fixtures that the bottom 5 have I think they are  in a strong position. If Leeds were in that position I'd be breathing a lot easier I'll tell you that

Why not head to France?  Scotland is full of midges in summer. Check out a crowd called venue holidays they used to have great value for tents/mobile home holidays in France Spain and Italy

Somebody mentioned needless risks, what's the defintion of such? Used to drive to Omagh for work from Magherafelt direction. Roughly 30mile from Ctown to Omagh, Over that distance there literally only 2 long stretches of the road to overtake say a slow moving lorry or 2 of such in a row, otherwise you may be driving 40odd mile an hr, the whole way to Omagh. Can get you frustrated trying to get to work.

That might be me you are quoting..I meant needless in the sense if a proper dual carriageway was in place it wouldn't place drivers in that predicament - as you described.

Any idea on the ages of the deceased?
I've driven that road many times and I know exactly what you mean by that term and it sums up very well the exasperation experienced by many motorists who get stuck behind slow moving vehicles for long periods

As was said above, contact them and come to an agreement

Absolutely, talk to them. If you agree to open a video account, which will mean that you will inevitably pay in the future, then they are likely to go easy on the past payment.
Absolutely, and why would any of us want to recognise the border by using it as a means to avoid paying the toll

NI currently running at a deficit of £700m, meanwhile Republic running at a surplus of €10 Billion. Makes you think
