Celebrity Bainnisteor

[AZOffaly]

John Quane would be a well known lad too. He played Centre Field for Limerick for a good few years. Always gave Darragh O'Sé his bellyful of it too. Sorry to see them go out (Galtee Gaels) but it's interesting to see the effect the GAA lads are having on the old battleaxe. She almost seems human, and when she was closing her eyes singing Amhrán na bhFiann, holding one of the lads hands, she looked like she was really into it.

Of course, as she admitted herselve, she came into it with a gender-politics agenda, but she seems to have been mightily impressed by the lads decency.

When I heard about this a few weeks ago I was thinking, oh Jesus, but saw it last night, was in stiches. Great stuff, dont know if I could take Jon Kenny serious as a coach, sounds like he could have been on stage. good show.

Was looking to watch this online but I keep getting all that "Access restricted" crap from RTE. Does anyone know a way round this for the folk's in the 6 Counties?

Last night was the perfect example of how the celebs make no difference at all and it is the better team that wins and it is as simple as that. John Kenny was clearly a far better coach than Nell and I really wanted to see the Limerick lads win, but the class shone through in the extra time. Derry clearly had one of their managment team togged out as a "player" not chance, the lad was older than Stephen Melia and was doing all the talking, as well as making all the decisions we can safely assume

I just cant stand that Nell McCafferty one but thought it was hilarious watching her poke the lads with her crutch saying "Bib, Bib, Bib..." And then in total bewilderment "Jaysus Brian, you're going to have to show me what a hop is". And then McEniff showing her like she was a 6yr old. 

Was hoping the limerick lads would win, it's just asking to much to watch nell yahooing on the sideline like a scaulded cat.... But it's probably just aswell Derry won, Nell wouldnt have let them near the sangwidges if they lost!!!

It was a nice little speech she gave in the dressing room beforehand in fairness to her. A pleasant change from the usual roaring and lepping before a game.

With the Dublin v Meath schmozzle dominating yesterdays thoughts, I totally forgot to tune into this - how'd it go last night??

[Louth Exile]

The beautifull Rose and her boys from Kiltimagh had a win over the former Minister and his Weford lads with a last gasp goal 

[AZOffaly]

I was disappointed in her to be honest. I know she's supposed to be a lovely girl, but she didn't come across that well, or even that interested. Still glad she beat the Fine Gael bookie though

Lads,

Can someone help me out here?

Am I right in thinking that Sunday night's programme (6.30pm) the first time we see the new show, and if so, is it repeated at any stage?

I missed the Rose on Sunday night as it turns out that the fact that the manger would miss an important TV programme isn't a good enough reason to get an U14 Feile game called off!

It's online here, repeated on Saturdays I think around 5 or 6...

Thoughts...

Have mayfield any ringers ?

Mayobridge could win this.

Wouldn't have had Marty Whelan down as the Tai Chi and relaxing strolls on the beach type. Seems to have got into the spirit of things well though. Felt sorry for poor oul Nell after the match. Anyone heading along to the final in Parnell Park on Friday? It's free in.
