Folks, a good friend of mine has set up a Facebook page whereby all the results of the Championship
will be posted live at the final whistle. Plus, there will be half time and full time ipadio casts from the major games.
This will no doubt be a valuable source of information for everyone.

To keep everyone interested, there will also be competitions on a weekly basis.
Write a short match preview, or final whistle report and be in with a chance of a weekly prize.
Under your article, people can vote for the article they like best by clicking the "Like" button.

Plus, underneath the line out for each team, people can click the "Like" button to predict a winner
of the upcoming featured match.

1 week before the All Ireland Hurling and the Football Finals, every weekly winner in the review
and reports will be entered into a draw for 2 premium level tickets and a 4 star hotel stay for a night.

Try and keep the posts sensible, and any nonsense will be deleted. Repeat offenders will be barred.


To start things off, tomorrows Derry v Armagh game is the featured match, so there is time to write a preview
and voting can start......

Your article has to fit into one comment, so don't make it too long.
420 words is the max I think. Will find out for sure later.
So, click on the following link and join up. Also, do me a favour and invite as many friends as possible to join.
