While the scoreboard says we lost last night by 9 it wasn't a hammering. We were competitive and in it until Wexford got 3 2 pointers in the last 5 minutes.

It was an entertaining game and Longford played far better than in the League. Lead at half time even.

Our kick-out policy was a disaster - assuming the policy was kicking it over the sideline or into a Wexford man's willing arms.

;D  I hope he has a full tank of gas in the Popemobile. And half a pack of cigarettes obviously.

And shades. Don't forget the shades.

A rollercoaster of a round of golf. My blood pressure was sky high. Well done Rory.

Still scratching my head as to why McGinley soured the soup with his stupid comments after.
Did he think we was talking to someone over a pint?

Waiting for the poll on Chas and Dave

Bee Gees were lepers back in the day to us social sophisticates. But we all now can appreciate their genius.

But if I were to pick 3 I would avoid the Sat Night Fever era.

No point in being DUP Councillor without being a c**t about it.

Hoor never apologised.

Some achievement as there would be a lot of competition for such a title within that organisation.

It was our best performance of the year and coulda, shoulda etc.

Fogarty is right. Wicklow made hard work of it. 15 or so wides and prob had 60-65% of possession and yet we could have won. Wicklow equalised with more oe less the last kick of the game.

Longford had no stream left for extra time.

Not too disheartened, despite losing. Would have been nice to play the Dubs in an artistic sense. Madness in every   other sense. I hope Wicklow keep pace. Your inside forward line is good (or made look good) so that's something.

Dubs' juggernaut will be nigh unstoppable.

Had it tough last few years.

I remember seeing Top Secret in 1984 and almost getting sick in the cinema with the laughter. Airplane/Naked Gun humour. Which I love.

Feck Top Gun shite.

RIP

Does anyone care?

We'll be hockeyed by Wicklow Sun week. Wicklow will then be ate by the Dubs in Aughrim.

I'm bored with it all.

I've read your posts for many years on GAA Board, but this is a very sad post.

For me, I'd like to resurrect the split Dublin idea with either a North Dub and South Dub, or Dub City and Dub County.


Feck me Orior. no way split Dublin. 4 behemoths instead of one. GAA is massive in capital. The fantasy 'Dun Laoghaire Rathdown' team on its own would give Leinster a good rattle.

I can handle despair. It's the little seeds of hope that kill you.

TBH being a Longford ultra gives me a certain respect in GAA circles here in Dublin. People nod heads...........there's yer man...........no hope...........still goes to all the games.........

Or else they think I'm a class of a simple bollix.

Wicklow made us look like gossuns in the recent League fixture. All we can do is play for pride on Sunday. We are in a bad place.

Winners are prob the losers, except at the gate. Get 3-5k Dubs in your gate the following Sunday will improves the coffers.

But there prob is a point where the Dub supporter says, fuk this. I cannot bodder me hole. We may have crossed that point.

Surprised that Meath have shot themselves in the foot. No so much with Carlow. Had heard about the rows in the camp. We need a hard decent Meath. Kildare - forget about it.

Great to see my adopted Offaly (my late dad played for them in NY in the 50s, despite having no Offaly blood) doing well. Power in the rosaries lads.

Series 4 of The Righteous Gemstones is now available.

It's good stuff - especially 'Baby' Billy's character.

Praise the Lawd.
