Good point about the expsense involved  in running a Gaa club . The GAA has to battle in every street every.every town and townland to keep the games going
#917
The big question is it the manager or the players ?. Jack won two and stepped aside Mikey is keeping  going .both of them had a hell of a lot of talent at their disposal .Could any of them get this success with lesser talent at their disposal ?. God people seem to have forgotton  the motto of the GAA "Hate thy neighbour"

Fecking books . I will hold all comments on the book until I read it . Munster v ulster .Everybody is getting so worked up ,

Agree Ross Matt he is a little sensitive . Maybe all managers are like this ? The abuse in Kerry is not funny and is the worst in the country

Looks like it might be interesting but i am a bit old fashioned and think he should let it go  a nunber of years after he has left the game . he seems to have a go at every one .the team of the 80 etc but sh*t its about winning .Offaly had there 25 years anniversery piss up at the weelend they are now in The Tommy Murphy cup .the past is the past

The system the system . Keep blaming the system . Hoiw many counties fall on their ass once they hit the qualifiers ?. Larger counties with larger player base will always have an advantage Kerry Mike is right no one casres about Kerry Hurling . How many people watch Down home league games ?.If we have an ope draw how will it affect attendances and take from the gates that provincaL councils get from Local  derbys . The gaa needs money to compete with other sports what will replace this revenue . Been realistic only 2 teams south of Portaoise can win the football and only 1 team north of Portlaoise can win the Hurling

Punditry is a good gig for  a former player . At this stage of the championship it can be difficult with the number of games . I would not mind  more honesty and openess . What do we want of the Sunday game just the highlights and previews . ?

I think blaming Mr Spillane is a cop out . RTE is only interested in ratings ansd stirring the pot remember most of its own programs are only interested in people texting in the program (celebrity Jigs and Reels etc). Video evidence analysis of wrong doings should not  be RTE jobbut should be the Job of the GAA . Australian punditry involves a lot of piss taking but would not work here as our players are only amatuers.
