Seen similar or worse scorelines under the old rules.

2-22 to 0-3 in 2011 Armagh SFC Final for one.

Old rules with 15 men back was more possible, nowadays in a offensive heavy game to score just 1 point is remarkably bad for any senior team.

Is this similar to when  they re-routed the motorway to save  a fairy fort near Limerick?

A Fairy Fort is at least a thing. An actual historic thing.

And was there for 1500 odd years, so had some claim.

Any good puns for that story?

QuoteAustralian police have ended a homicide investigation after what appeared to be human remains turned out to be a lifelike doll.

Two members of the public found a dumped suitcase on the side of the road in Oallen, a town south-west of Sydney, on Sunday.

Upon opening it up, they found what they believed to be the remains of a human body.

Police said examinations later determined that the item was "a lifelike doll, wearing clothing, with hair and a nose piercing".

The fact that he is still playing or that they lost 7-25 to 0-3?  Not unusual for a 44 year old to tog out for junior/reserve football....even the odd 50 year old makes an appearance

He did. I played junior in Antrim at 47 a few years ago and play away 5-6 tournaments now at 50,  albeit much slower. While not great for the ankles it's great for the head!
