20k is enough for Casement

I honestly think a few years ago they  should Have Built an Ulster gaa centre in somewhere like Armagh/Ballygawley/Dungannon ( like the one Connacht has) where lots of counties could  avail of its facilities.

Totally agree. I was in Belfast sat, what a nightmare, and then up the falls , no way . The GAA and its strength lie outsude Belfast-take it to the people and make it accessible to the whole of ULSTER.

Seems the bigger threat to unity comes from indifferent "nationalists" who would have previously have been considered a definite Yes to Unity vote.

Which is crazy when you think about it. Would rather live with the DUP still pulling the strings, a Tory government who don't give a flying f@ck and pretend to themselves that the NHS is amazing and that their pension will be taken away from them if they leave the UK. It's like they  listen to what Bryson, Sammy Wilson etc say and then believe it ffs.

Neither the NHS or our pensions are safe. Sure they near blew the pensions with your woman Truss's budget.

There's buck all safe with the tories. Nothing.

We'll only find that out nearer the time.

As soon as I can pull some cash out of my pension pot I will, as it's the next big financial scam looming on the horizon.

The Old trusty Rovers biscuit tin for me

Went to Cassidy's for a pint the other night on the way home from a gig. Ordered 2 pints and went to pay by card. Young lad says £10 minimum charge so took the £10 off the card and handed me change back of £2.60. £3.70 a pint. Couldn't complain about that

Thats what id be used to in Derry. Northern Ireland has the highest pint prices in UK(yuk) and Belfast naturally highest in north.

Was in Glasgow last night. Pint of peroni in a restaurant £5.95. Pint in most pubs £5.00 or less. We're being ripped off over here

Finny that's what i got in maldron - peroni.

Staff good ,food decent , pints like pish water and too dear

First off you didn't drink in a Belfast pub, and secondly you order an expensive shit beer. Slap it up ya.

Like I said 5 pints in central Belfast pub 27 quid, no food as eating is cheating

Went up to the jeggy nettle today, 6.80 for a stout and skag heads everywhere

7 quid in Belfast for a pint , not good
Was in Belfast yesterday, Garrick pub, place was jammed packed inside out the back upstairs and outside. 3 Guinness 2 Harp £27 quid, thought that was reasonable

Is that an average price you found or Grand Central  bar?

I wish . The maldron. Hardly your high end hotel . Too dear. Belfast packed, but shopping not my thing.Couldn't believe amount of people up from Dublin and further down. I suppose you can get from Dublin to Belfast quicker than from Derry these days.

North west getting squeezed to death

Yeah he was well marked. Still a big asset with his pace.

Was unreal today, what's that they say,  Form is temporary but class is permanent

Winning ugly is still winning... it's taken a while but hopefully that's S'neil done, as they were tough cookies for a long time

The standard in Munster and Leinster is the benchmark at the minute, St Thomas will be favourites but I'd say it's going to be a close game

I'm not sure if that's Slaughtneil done , they are still young and they weren't dominated today , be all down to the football

Claudy and Banagher down to Intermediate, Craigbane up to Intermediate. Only changes making it 14, 13 and 10 in each division.

And Steelstown?

Banagher were ahead of them but probably not as good as Steelstown at full strength

Really looking forward to a win for Cuchullian's tomorrow.

Fed up listening to those across the bridge who have really got such inflated opinion of themselves.
Incorrect when the suggested a hammering for Cargin v Glen and really look forward to Dunloy bursting their bubble...

Derry Club= Big shots
Antrim Club = Wee fry

I'll take your WU and raise you with double WU

Hurling is the bigger joke. Donegal Champions constantly hitting Junior whereas the other equivalent counties go into Intermediate.

This exactly. But feck them, they had 8 blow ins and still didnt blow everyone away. Cheating hoors

Aye, but even Dungannon sneaking in this year was a low move too. Monaghan, Tyrone, Donegal, Armagh and Fermanagh champions should all be barred from entering the junior. Cavan are fair enough. As for Setanta, I counted 6 starters from outside the club and 2 subs.

Just thought they had a bad year(Dungannon)-difference is Tyrone still sent their champs intermediate and had 2 Ulster reps.

Kane, Gilmore, Cleary, Donaghue, Flynn, Coulter on starting team-not sure about subs.


Add to that McGettigan, Lafferty and McGee Connolly. On the bench Bellew, Ward, O'Reilly, McMenamin and Devine. Manager McGettigan is also an outside man although he played for Setanta for a while.

I thought out of your list Bellew and O'Reilly were the only two, apart from the manager.  No Devine there at all

McGettigan's, Bellew and O'Reilly are from Strabane, Lafferty and McGee Connolly Ballybofey/Mccumhaills, Ward is from Cork, McMenamin Castlefinn area. Devine may be injured, he's from Strabane or Clady, very good hurler.

Wonder if McGee Connolly and Lafferty have been there since younger days,  no issue with McMenamin as Castlefin is in the area and that's just who you would have to hurl for. Devine is from Strabane, he played a few games this season but don't think he committed.


Lafferty played a Senior Final or two in the last decade with McCumhaills and through underage. Unsure regarding McGee Connolly. Surprising Ward doesn't start, he is a fine hurler by all accounts.

He did start

Wasn't sure about Mc gee, you sure Lafferty Strabane ?

Ward played all matches. Devine done.

Bellew strabane via belfast and lives in Derry

Strabane could have kept their own team going ,took the easy option  for glory. Mind us having 5 at training but kept going.

Very suspicious all these boys from everywhere appearing in wee Killygordon

Setanta and burt abd Buncrana ganged up on us and threatened Croke Park over something much more minor.
