But definitely not like this, which is using the underline facility

How'd'ya like this?

Thanks for that Juice. I took 10 minutes out to watch that and it was great. I'd almost forgotten the quality of football in that game. Great long accurate foot passing, marvellous high fielding, amazing score taking, good strong robust physical clashes. So different from the stop-start, namby pamby, tip-tap, handpassing basketball and card-waving extravaganzas we see so much today. I had to stop watching the Galway - Dublin game yesterday because the referee made such a farce of it, stopping play every time there was even slight, even accidental, even suggested physical contact, to wave one or other from his multi-coloured selection of cards and write a little essay each time in his wee book. I hate what they're turning our game into.

Sorry - went off one there. But I hate it. I hate it with a passion.

Anyway, as Graham said in the beginning of that clip - that was "a great day for Meath fupple".

I did the same Hardy. Some quality stuff there too and I can still hear the cries from the Tyrone faithful now about lads being taken out and such. That was a great Meath team and there was no way Tyrone had the footballers to beat them that Day or any other day even if Canavan hadn't have been injured.

Trevor Giles - one of the most gifted footballers that I've ever seen - what happened him?

He just packed in county football. He would have been relatively young when he gave up in 2005 - 28/29, but had had an eleven year inter county career - must have reckoned that was enough.

Himself and Colm O'Rourke are coaching the U-21's this year.
