33rd best club first team. There would be a good few second teams of clubs in Senior 1 and Senior 2 who would handle them per easily.

The Dubs also have All-County leagues that include second and third teams etc, with none of those teams allowed to enter the county championships at any grade. Teams winning the junior championship in Dublin can come out of divisions from maybe 6-8.

Key point there is "aspiring to be".

Strange one this. 19 suspensions seems abit excessive- obviously no one deserves to feel intimidated at work but if you're going to work in a school with teenagers you can't afford to be too precious. Hard to comment on it without knowing the full detail

And yet you do anyway. Strange indeed.

He certainly likes to grandstand!

Widely available, for years now, if you cared to look.

Quote from: Puckoon on January 14, 2026, 05:37:15 PMTook a punt on Eastern Promises last night with Viggo and Naomi Watts, thoroughly enjoyable. Wish the ending had played out more, but at that time there was a plan for a second installment which is not happening I guess.

Great film. Harrowing at times.

Sacked by Middlesbrough to "might have a shot at getting the United gig if they do ok".

Surely the supporters riot at that point, no?

The idea that all counties divide their championships in 3 is demonstrably rubbish. Senior A, Premier Intermediate, Premier Junior etc exist all over the place. "Novice" in Kerry is just what wind be called Junior B elsewhere.

So follow your suggestion through. What are the implications of that for clubs that might be, say, D1 or D2 but intermediate or junior? Should they be allowed play junior within their county if they haven't achieved the promotion standard within the county, i.e. winning the junior championship? What about Na Gaeil who as it was pointed out play D3 but senior championship. Is it unfair on them that some of their senior championship rivals play D1 or D2? They made the final of the Kerry club championship this year ffs.

Do you want all counties to adopt the exact same model?

Does "potential" just mean young these days? Yoro has shown nothing since arriving at United that he has the potential to be a top level CB. Obviously he might turn out to be fantastic, but he's shown nothing like the quality of someone like, say, Huijsen who's only a few months older than him.

Packers collapse was pretty spectacular. Bears were poor and they just handed it to them on a plate in the 4th quarter.

No, Big Mo was Charlie's mother in law. She was Harris I think, not Slater. Played by Laila Morse who is Gary Oldman's sister.

Wouldn't have figured he was that old.

Could make sure it's buried very, very deep down in them?

An Gaeltacht won't care one jot. Congrats to them.
