Time to give Charlie Smyth a chance in nets

I'd go with John O'Hare first

purchased new house mid sept - kitchen circa 20 years old, quality fantastic, dont think we would get the same quality again if we bought new one.

any recommendations for replacement worktops (stone) and kitchen spraying?

anyone been to the Amber Springs hotel in gorey? booked it with another couple for 2 nights, just shy of 500 quid.

2 couples plus 2 kids each - hoping its a child friendly and ok so we can enjoy a drink too!

scotland away is a great trip - i have great memories of the night we played them at celtic park - 2014 just before christmas - unfortunatley a shaun maloney wordie beat us that night.

a group of us were up in the north stand surrounded by the scots - was all good quality banter.

Any predictions for the semi finals.

Clann Eireann v Derrygonnelly 
  7/4            13/2                8/13
Logic would say to go with the more experienced Derrygonnelly side here but I've a feeling Clan Eireann can pull a shock of here, but by the minimum.   

Glen             v                 Kilcoo   
4/7           7-1                15/8

Glen strong favourites for this. Kilcoo have struggled in the past against big physical sides like Glen. However they have some serious experience at this level and have real goal scoring threats. I think the bookies might be wrong on this one. Kilcoo by 3
I heard talk of maghera men backing Glen for Ulster before they'd even won Derry. I think they'll edge it. Other tie I think is more of a toss up - Derrygonnelly have the experience and attributes for winter football but CE have confidence and nothing to lose. They also don't know when they're beaten so DG could be 6 or so up and CE could still come back at them

BS. No one around the club backed us for Ulster. Kilcoo big favourites. Hopefully we can give them a game!

I Call BS on your BS. I witnessed a derry native absolutley "lumping" on Glen for Ulster at PP in Newry!

I've just ordered 1 Rugby Jersey and 2 Footie Jerseys - once you order add them on whattsapp and request payment link for paypal, they send it direct to your paypal.

hope to have my order in 3-4 weeks.

always found quality to be good, sizing can be a bit off so i go one up.

DO NOT tumble dry - my wife learned this lesson, as did a nice retro jersey i had

Highly recommend lads

In the market for a TV as last one fcuked.

Whats good about this one.

Are there likely to be reductions on black Friday?

If you use IPTV this is the tv for you - no fire stick required as its already built in. I also find it very responsive compared to using the firestick plugged into the tv.

I purchased a 65" for £599 4K Ultra HD which i found to be excellent value.

Some draw last night...who in the world could have foreseen that we'd get drawn with Clonduff? That'll be the end of the road for our lads surely...in fairness we are miles off Burren and Kilcoo so it makes no odds whether we play Clonduff now or a better team later as there's a big gulf. Streamed the Burren game last night and I fancy them to win the whole thing. Two easy fixtures has given them a chance to give lots of lads plenty of football and not have to risk any injured players like Fegan and Toner. Liam Kerr and Danny Magill are different gravy. Kilcoo will be worried about Burren IMO...The rest of the teams in the county are a side act...County board will surely keep Kilcoo and Burren apart in the semi finals hoping for a showpiece event.

Not much excitement other than our game this wkend. Should be a good crowd there on Sunday night. Fancy Mayobridge to do enough against Bredagh, they'll win by 2/3 pulling up. Castlewellan will fancy their chances against Glenn but that game will be close and I think Glenn will edge it. Carryduff and Longstone will be tight as well but I think Carryduff will see it through.

Clonduff won't beat Burren...Burren will win the full thing. Clonduff will bottle it this wkend against the first decent team they've faced. Kilcoo could get caught on the hop by the Harps...that'll be closer than people think

Ballyholland arent gona come within 6 points of kilcoo next weekend - absolute gulf in quality. Ballyholland very poor last night - couldnt believe how poor they were - expected alot better
