Is the gaaboard the place for speculation on who gets custody of someone's children!?

Resigned

Awesome display by the Dubs today. It was a pleasure to watch them. Once they broke Louth's early grip on the game the Dubs were devastating throughout the field. Louth were totally outclassed, but in fairness they battled to the end. One sour note was the insistent booing by the Louth supporters of the Dublin free-takers - although I don't think that it caused frees to be missed.

Well you're one of the few that are enthusiastic about it - there weren't too many Dubs that could muster up the enthusiasm to wander down to watch it.

Kildare have won feck all either in fairness. It would be a big deal for them too. May the best team on the day win!

They won it in 2018 and they have a much bigger population than Sligo. Ordinarily I'd be cheering the lilywhites, but not today.

Best of luck to Sligo today. It would be brilliant to see them win, and a massive boost to the county.

[The cops can investigate and find nothing. They'll only forward a file to the DPP if they think there's something there.]

So they investigated and found nothing?

Is that what it says?

Gallsman wants Gallagher hung, drawn, and quartered,no winners in this sorry episode for Doire Gaa,Gallagher,or his family, enough said

At no point have I said anything of the sort.

Isn't that normal process though? Doesn't everything have to go through the PPS? What would the PSNI said differently?

The cops can investigate and find nothing. They'll only forward a file to the DPP if they think there's something there. The decision to prosecute or not is the DPP's.

Otherwise, using the example from earlier, any gobshite can abuse anyone of anything and a file would be sent to the prosecutor.

That's 100% wrong. The police will send the file to the PPS regardless, in fact, they have no real power. The police in this case would provide the file with a recommendation. For prosecution or no prosecution. Even in the case of police recommending no prosecution the PPS can still decide to go through with it.

I think it is you that is 100% incorrect, certainly in respect of any issue in NI. Police only send the file if there is evidence. Possibly this is not how it works in the South.

Same down here as far as I know. File only sent to DPP if the guards think there's a case to be answered.

Sounds like the heels are being dug in by Gallagher and Derry. I expect him to be on the sideline on Sunday, and it will be a very bad look for Derry and the GAA.

[there are always two sides so we need to be careful]

Flip sake. I came on here to post Paddy Power odds on how many times RG will spit on his hands during the match.

Two responses here are important
1) As Walter Cronc says, why now?
2) As JimStynes says, there are always two sides so we need to be careful

It's over to the County Board to either deal with it or ignore.

This shite has been said a few times. There are not always two sides to the story. IF he beat the shite out of his wife, there is not an other side that somehow justifies it - unless you are a woman beating caveman of course.

Hear hear!
I wanted to say the same thing. In fairness, I think (hope) people meant that there might be doubts as to the truth of the story, rather than there's anything she did that could have warranted what he allegedly did.

I picked up my new T-Roc diesel from our local VW dealer yesterday. I asked the sales rep if they were selling many electric vehicles. He said almost zero.

Well now in fairness, Nordies wouldn't be know for their forward thinking outlook.

This co-comm on GAAGO for Dub v Wex is so biased!
Dunno who he is, but has a Dublin accent and is shouting "well done" when Dublin win a free ffs

Sarah McInerney has ruled herself out.

Glad to see McInerney gone. The woman has zero charisma.

She's a top class presenter and is much better suited to grilling horrible FFG lying politicians than wasting away doing the late late show fluff. I'm delighted to hear she removed herself from the conversation. Maybe Enda Kenny could do it?

Yep, she'd be a bigger loss to current affairs than she'd be a gain to light entertainment.  Better off where she is.

Anyone able to tell me what time the draw is taking place for the groups? And if it is being broadcast live?

1pm. On radio 1 i think

And GAAGO

Canadian music icon Gordon Lightfoot.

His song "The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald" is just beautiful.

Really enjoy "if you could read my mind" and "sundown"

Early Morning Rain is another great song of his. Seamus Begley had a great version of it

Louth ran away with it. Shows how far off the pace Meath are.

Ran away with it? Really?

Extra time!
