It was in balinameen last night I heard.

That's a pity. I fondly imagined it would spend Saturday nights popping wheelies and doing doughnuts up and down the main street of Ballaghaderreen :)

You have a weird imagination, what would the shiny bus be doing in a Mayo town.
Walk-in down mchale rd , sun out, summers day , game day . That's all .

Roscommon were good in the first half and poor in the second half.
It's pretty obvious the performance enhancing effects of the bus are directly related to the duration of exposure to the bus.
If you were any use you'd be playing.

Would you recommend we go to the bus for the half-time team talk?

Jinxy

Yes.
And also, if possible, the bus should be parked in full view of the players on the field.
Then, if the heads are down, the captain can just point at the bus to remind the lads what they're playing for.
If you were any use you'd be playing.

Purely to increase (or decrease, depending on your viewpoint) recusancy.

Anyways I have to salute the prescience of the manufacturer in not building a superfluous open upper deck!

Im surprised the bus hasnt got a twitter and facebook account by now, it must be privy to all sorts of scandal.

It's a measure of the affection we all hold the Rossies in.

Was it outside the Hyde yesterday? Did ye give Willie Hegarty a spin in it yet?

That bus should be allowed on the field at half time and full time to bring the Ros players/legends to the dressing room. What a bus.

I heard over the weekend that come the end of the Ross campaign (circa end of June) the bus is to be used as a sheep export vehicle. It will be sent around the county gathering stricken sheep for export to the UK.

The bus won't return empty though as the plan is to return to Ross with large bottles of fresh english water for those on boil notices. Syferus is the one doing the driving.
