Tyrone were awful yesterday and fair play to Donegal. I felt donegal were streetwise as hell and tyrone entered that game either with a dressing room problem or something else..late changes discipline etc had all the hallmarks of a non focussed camp...When reactions to the cynical Donegal performance go to these places,,, and a Potentially sickening subsequent off the ball incident that may have left Mc Cann badly injured..then it is time to take a step back and evaluate where we are going.. Not worth that and something you would not want to see in our games from Both teams....It’s indefensible and I haven’t seen the incident yet where it’s suggested his Achilles could have been targetted in an off the ball incident then he’s already suffering and his career could be over...

Who was the Donegal player that done Mccann off the ball to send him off injured?
TV showed it briefly from camera behind opposite goals but wasn’t clear what happened

Cheers lads. Anyone any experience of IPTV? Is RTE available there?

Yes. Check android box thread
However I would get it sorted so you receive through aerial/Saorview as well

What’s the frequency change going to mean for those currently receiving Saorview in the North?

Any experience of outside aerials/boosters on house to boost o2 signal in the house? Foil back insulation keeps the signal out...

You’ll need the correct aerial as well- UHF TV Aerial

She still brings marking home, still has classes and subjects to teach and under the same pressure to get results but for lesser money than a civil servant doing 9-5

A civil sevrant will probably be have about twice the standard working hours in a year as a teacher and to which grades of civil servant do you refer to? Entry level civil servants?

Come on now. This is the NI Civil Service you are talking about...

Teachers' pay is an absolute joke and they pay rise they're being offered is useless. I'm a Civil Servant and earn over £10K more than my wife who's a teacher. I'd say half the staff in Tesco get paid more

You must be a DP grade or above?

Given Tyrone are in the preliminary round in ulster there is even less weeks to play with in terms of the non starred games than last year. Can't see how they'd have time to fit the fixtures in if there was any further delays.

Tyrone still have an outside chance of making the league final maybe that’s the hold up?

In the process of using it for a Ground source heat pump. Seems pretty straight forward. Is yours a new build or a retro fit?

When did the scheme open up again?

Hi all Ive been a long term reader/fan of this board and rarely have the time to contribute, but am building a 3500 sguare foot house and am looking advice on the following if theres any peoiple with experiences, Id appreciate this, ive seen a lot of stuff so its real experience im looking without the blurb.
1) Efficient heating system - at this stage Im almost certainly not going for ufloor heating - too many scare stories, so I need to go for a different system, assuming rads and probably oil - is there any options? Also insulation needs and eg heat recovery systems / solar panel experiences etc.  Pressured water systems.'
2) Smart home systems - Surround sound in a couple of rooms / lighting / security cameras / bband /tv etc.  What are the options on a sensible enough budget?
Thanks
JPF
