That's an absolute collapse from Fermanagh.
Shocking .

2 bad teams

Bad and badder.

Fantastic result.  Finished strong, a new phenomenon for us!  Credit to McEntee and all involved. I hope they all stay fit and available for another big day in Croke Park.

Michelle says "Casement will be built, on her watch ". 
Great.
How?

[Even Italy were not a top team when they won it 4 years]

If France,Germany, Portugal or England are focused on this then one of them will win. However the top teams aren't always all that interested in winning the euros. Hence wins for the likes of Denmark Greece or Czechoslovakia. The Euros are just not as sought after as the world cup is. Even Italy were not a top team when they won it 4 years ago, getting knocked out in world cup qualifying against lesser teams straight after winning the euros.

I wouldn't be afraid of backing someone like Denmark in this. You never know.

They were on a world record 37 game unbeaten streak.

We don't need to look any further than ourselves.

Ill conceived.
Completely mishandled.
Totally oversold.
Embarrassing levels of political naivety.

Ulster GAA and the local politicians have nothing to show for it only a string of embarrassing photoshoots and a load of big talk that "it will be built", which they could never back up. A holy show.

Sooner it's given back to Antrim GAA the better so they can try to build an atmospheric stadium to meet their needs.  They would've been locked out most days of the year otherwise.

Jarlath reckons Euros won't happen now as stadium needs to be open and operational by June 2027 to meet UEFAs requirements

So that's that, now get the pitch back for Antrim and have a modest stadium, I was all for it, but the life's been drained out of this project that I'd take back old Casement to just have the Country ground back.

That's no reflection on Corrigan BTW

100%

Yes from me.

The two Michelle's have nice personalities and are highly electable in the North to keep the other side out. But honestly, they've been around Stormont for a long time and yet the place is literally falling apart. I know power sharing is almost impossible to make work, but I don't think they've earned any right to claim they could run an actual real country any better than the incumbents.

Fantastic. She had to scrap for that and that sums up her career. Amazing person.

Why is it so poorly attended?  It literally looks like family and friends only in the crowd.
Fingers crossed for Mageean tonight.

There are two Irish athletes in final.

Very good.

Bowl 1: Germany

Bowl 2: Netherlands

Bowl 3: Switzerland

Bowl 4: Ukraine

Bowl 5: Serbia

Bowl 6: Georgia

Germany beat England in final.

Rishi has touched a nerve heading home early from the D-Day commemoration.

Something has gone astray with their comms, with Maddison leaked this morning and rushing out their list this evening.  Someone talking too much.

You'd be hoping Fermanagh out of those three

I don't think that's McEntee's mindset at all.  He'll be thinking let's take out a 'big' team. Sort of mentality that might actually see Antrim win something. I'm old enough to remember Andy had his critics, but he's doing well overall imo.

Kerry sauntering to a win against Meath.  A waste of diesel for all concerned. A good advert for All Ireland Senior, Intermediate and Junior Championships.  Something most of us are well used to at club level so no big mental adjustment for senior inter county. Having the Tailteann isn't enough.
