 Heard  a rumour at the weekend which I thought was a bit far fetched tbh but I see the Gaelic Life is posting it too  that Slaughtneil are set to appoint Austin O'Malley as their new coach

Quote from: theticklemister on January 25, 2026, 09:52:42 PMLads or lassies. Can we stop picking out players on this forum?

These lads give up their time and represent our county. Out three/four nights a week, giving up their time.

We should be proud of their efforts.

Onwards and upwards (but not backwards or sidewards)
Well said Tickle

Quote from: GTP on January 23, 2026, 01:05:31 PMGone with an experienced 15, bench looks light on midfield options but hopefully some of the newer additions can make an impact and provide more scoring forwards.
Bench light on cover for the full back line as well

Quote from: Blowitupref on January 21, 2026, 07:51:52 PMPoor conditions, the co commentator is busy with all correcting he has to do with Jerome.

Umpires with no flags is poor for those involved. Half time Queens 0-8 UU 0-5.  A correction on the scoreline now.

If Jerome would just stop talking for a second and pay attention to the game it would be a much better product
My thoughts exactly

Quote from: quit yo jibbajabba on January 10, 2026, 10:09:12 PMFew boys being silly methinks. Surely it's more a conflict of interest for the parents who would like to have seen both matches as well as the boys themselves
That's my take on it also

Not sure if they are all old enough to be on the actual Glenullin Panel (Paddy Bradley I see has tweeted he has a young fella involved who I think is still under 16) but a very unfortunate position for four families to be caught up in

Don't be overly worrying about the spreadsheets, they've a fair idea what they're at at this stage


Re squad

The 25 last night

+
McEvoy
Rogers
McGuigan
McGurk
Higgins
Forbes
Diamond
McDermott

+ prob a few more we'll know about post Sigerson etc

Need to be carrying a big squad re training matches / setup etc



James Murray was mentioned here before and M'felt had a post up listing names involved and Odhran (Lynch) and James (assuming Murray) were listed.
I think Conall Higgins and  Eamon Young are involved as well

Quote from: lurganblue on January 01, 2026, 07:34:49 PMStranger things finale. No spoilers here. I thought it grand. A bit of fun. 2 hours was maybe 20 mins too long IMO.

Ive seen loads on spouting complaints already. People get too much into these things... talking about lore etc fs. Maybe the time between series has caused a lot of this.

Is there ever a general census of contentment with a big series ending? Seems not
The finale of season 5 of the Wire closed things out well imho
