The Irish Examiner Football podcast hosted by Paul Rouse is still my favourite, The Football Pod can be ok as long as Paddy Andrews give the other two a chance to talk , Second Captains is usually a decent listen (Liam Rushe & Jamie Wall in particular)

For you chaps of a certain age there's a decent set by Shed Seven hidden away in the iPlayer. No word of Kneecap. The editors must be busy.

Excellent set, They released a really good album last year which got me listening to them again

Really enjoyed the Alannis Morisette set (looking forward to seeing her in Belfast on Monday )

Newbridge are rightly motoring for a team of youngsters, maybe their golden generation. Its a pity alot of teams are conceding to the reserve team though, seems a wider problem tbf

It's definitely the worst that I can remember for the amount of division 1 reserve games being cancelled ,

Just home from a very enjoyable game of football in Slaughtneil  Finished a draw Bridge  0-26 Slaughtneil 2-20, Brendan  and Shane played ,Paudie and CD weren't togged out,

Ah not this f**king twerp! Winners win!

I have come score this fella through work recently ,I will give him one thing he is bloody persistent

Where I was at(terrace behind goals that Armagh scored into in second half ) there was  no more than a dozen Derry supporters anywhere near our vicinity

I just cannot fathom the thinking behind giving Armagh uncontested kick outs for most of the first half ,  Dan Higgins and Ryan Mulholland did well when they came on

Derry players,management and supporters delighted to be only 3 points behind.  A real banana skin for Armagh as I expected.

I fear we will see a different Armagh in rt second half

Derrys tactic of standing back and letting Armagh get a short kick out for most of that first half made no sense

Sad news about Paul Conway aka wee bambo, ex Ballinderry corner forward from the 80s and 90s, only a few of yous will probably remember him.

Couldn't believe it when I heard the news last night,

I seen a photo of a player from Newbridge whose hand was damaged apparently via a stud at the weekends game, was told who it was but don't want to report anything unless its true. I mean, I have never seen anything like in all the years involved in sport. I am hoping its not true

I  saw a photo of his hand  and you would think it  was in an industrial accident looking at it.

Yep nasty looking alright ,hopefully it's not as bad as it looks

Chambers did Start the final last year, Eoin Higgins came on a sub,Eoin was on the panel this year but I believe left due to injury

Still cant work out how 4 of last yrs starting forwards are not on that team.

Well one of the four is overage (O'Donnell) and another is carrying an injury I believe (McCann) Spiers made the decision to leave the panel after the first game

Should be interesting 2nite Derry v Tyrone, Tyrone will certainly not be as complacent as they were v Armagh. Derry look awesome to date but have nearly been going too well too early, Tyrone will up it tenfold but bookies have it 4/9 and 3/1.

Should be a good game alright hopefully we can  come out on the right side but James Sargent is a massive loss
