Tottenham have lost 3 in a row and are down to 5th. December is a tough month as well.

It is so easy to manipulate people via social media

Clarinbridge in Galway ?

Indeed
It is insane

Unfortunately I didnt get to see the Trillick v Scotstown match but by all accounts it was a very good game.
I had a feeling Trillick would win it and had the potential to win Ulster under the radar, but not to be.

Glen probably deserved to win the first SF, that point at the end to win it was worth it alone.
I still think they are not playing as well as last year, but perhaps that will come yet. Glass has been underwhelming, but that's not to say he's playing badly, just doesn't seem to be hitting the same highs as last year.
I dont think that was a penalty tbh, and had it not been given Glen probably ran out comfortable enough winners. Hurson had a reasonably good game, though I though he was a little harsh on Glen in general, but for me he got the penalty wrong.

Glen and Scotstown will be an interesting game. Glen perhaps slight favourites, but not much between them. Scotstown keeper play could be the difference in the two teams.

Wattys may be pacing themselves. It's tournament football. They want to be ready for the final. They know how it works.

There is a museum in Berlin based in a WW2 bunker that aims to show how ideoligies such as Nazism end.
Zionism is such an ideology.

The resistance to the proposal - which would begin from 2025 onwards - continues to grow with the teams impacted now having the public backing of the GPA and the strongest counties in the country.

All 11 captains of the counties competing in the 2024 Liam MacCarthy Cup have signed a statement calling for a u-turn.

Will it ever happen? In 2010 the UK economy was far stronger than it is now.

Ulster is really interesting.  Trillick showing Tyrone clubs can compete.

West and Southwest Cork is football country. The county is like Galway,  divided in 2 GAA regions. Cork have a very decent number of football all Irelands compared to the other second line counties.  I don't see why a ciarraíoch has to claim the Béal bocht on their behalf. 

Getting rid of the provincial championship is what they actually need.

No matches should be played in December.
Starting matches at 1.30 because there is no light at 4 is a symptom of the problem.
Club championships have to be standardised.

On this  day in 1991, Freddie Mercury died, aged  45.

Freddie, Kurt Cobain and Ayrton Senna were all shocking deaths for me. Much more so than Avicii and Dolores later on.  You get used to how cruel life can be.

Someone is manipulating people in D1. Conspiracy theories.  Culture war.

Huge challenge for the Garda and McEntee.
