Leicester could throw away the Top 4 for the second season. Whatever it is about Brendan Rodgers his teams crumble when the pressure is on, same at Liverpool

Cathal McShane was persuaded to stay in Tyrone with a new job in Lintel https://keystonegroup.co.uk/tyrone-gaa-cathal-mcshan
Did he get a  new house also?

Tyrone had to match, or better what he was going to be offered in Australia

Plenty of County players have nice careers as a result of being a county player. Obviously they would have worked to get to it, but doesn't own the GAA anything tag is a bit rich.

Aidan O Shea strolling around in newly sponsored Audi every year is because he's a Top County footballer. Good luck to him that he can get those perks,but don't play the poor mouth because they aren't professional. Plenty of perks.

It was a chance for him to play Division 1 football, but might not have been thrilled about a Ulster Championship style league

Will he play much club football?, not been involved with Crossmaglen in a few years. Played a bit in London.

Don't think those breaches have any effect on no crowds being back. It's across all sports not just GAA.

It's said a phased crowd allowance will happen in July.

I read Fermanagh have lost a few players since last year. Tomas Corrigan,Ryan Jones and a few others opted out.
They have Sean Quigley back but would be very surprised if they beat Monaghan. Monaghan  should have more in their attack, and will be hurting from last year.

Tyrone in Omagh very tough for Cavan, but it will get them focused. Might have been complacent if it was Antrim

Ståle Solbakken (Norway Manager):

"In recent years [Juventus] have been knocked out by Lyon, Porto and Ajax in the Champions League. Why the f*ck should they be in such a tournament then? Tottenham and Arsenal are currently, probably not, among the 20-30 best teams in Europe"

More journalists are saying Real Madrid, Chelsea and Manchester City will be thrown out of this seasons Champions league. Will the cup be given to PSG if that happens. Won't make much sense as PSG will eventually join a Super League.

Whos saying it? Would be incredible if it happened.

The head of the Danish FA, and UEFA executive committee member, Jesper Møller expects Chelsea, Real Madrid, and Manchester City to be kicked out of this season's Champions League.

For me the important thing is what happens with free to air football. If that stays pretty much the same like it is in the champions league then I don't have a problem with this.

The Champions League would be a half arsed competition with the big teams no longer in it.
Though maybe more traditional Clubs like Ajax, Porto. would benefit in the Champions League, without the Sugar Daddy clubs involved.

Between this and the World Cup in Qatar, losing its respect.

There won't be crowds for the League games. It would have to be at level 2 for some specators.
Streaming will have to be alternative option forward for County boards, doubtful they will be showing Division 3  games on TV.

They were named in the Celt a few weeks ago. David Brady of Ballyhaise is also involved.

If any of the recent stories are to be believed issues with Howe and personnel and deal still way off.

In the name of god, if true, that club never ceases to amaze me!!

Kennedy and Strachan should have been gone with Lennon, whether they had any big say or not they were part of the nonsense that we seen in 20/21.

I'm convinced Kennedy knows something about someone high up in the club as he seems to be a permanent fixture and Willie Mc Stay too.

Just reading Celtics current women's Manager was R Koemans assistant for a number of years, surely he could have seen things through until the end of the season.

The issue seems to be that Eddie Howe wants to bring in Richard Hughes as the DOF, they worked together at Bournemouth.
While Celtic are determined to appoint Fergal Harlin who works at Man City.

Lucien Fabre ex Borussia Dortmund seems to be the alternative if the move for Howe doesn't happen.

Maybe Madrid will have Hazard back to give them some spark,but he has been very underwhelming since he joined Madrid. Injuries,poor form, and was overweight when he joined

Carragher is becoming an awful clown. Roaring are you watching Gary Neville, when Neville wasn't disputing his attacking talent. It's his defending like on Wednesday which is the problem
