General discussion / Mother and Baby Home Report

24 hours on and not a whimper on the Mother and Baby Home Report. Does the board reflect the misogyny of the era or are people too caught up in US politics and Covid? Report is a damning indictment of Ireland  and the society that evolved post "Independence"

Anyone hear that the Johnston brothers have left the Down squad?

Heard they were dropped by Yewtree for being from Kilcoo. Some other boys apparently for the chop due to who they play for.

What in the name of good god have Roscommon done to deserve that. Serial loser at every club he's been at, failure in Carlow except in stoking up resentment, abject disaster with this years Down Minors. If he goes a bit further West he could join up with that other ego maniac in USA

Think Smutfy is right Sam. The players can't hold their own water. That info is all over SM. Serious questions to be answered by the powers that be.

The money men couldn't afford for sevco to go bust again. If rangers fail, Celtic make less money ala 2012-2016. Sevco in so much debt this year, that if they don't qualify for champions league, they are gone again. Money men made a decision to effectively forfeit the league to keep sevco alive. 10 in a row would be great for the support, but money men don't care about that. Lennon is just the fall guy.

Or maybe, maybe... Celtic are just crap?

That's it in a nutshell and Rangers just a little bit less crap

Fair point Fermgael and pure and utter arrogance on the part of that poster. Nothing is given at this age group and we had no right to expect a win. The one thing that comes out of this is that this management team have had more than ample opportunities at this age group. Coaching in Down needs a complete overhaul at development squad level as whatever we are doing isn't working for quite a few years . Good luck to Fermanagh ongoing

Didn't mind the poet but given the array of talent there it was one borefest. Turbidy at his worst but That Bono is one p***k . For a 90 minute show there wasn't 30 mins music. Wonder do Rte accept donations from the black north but just can't allow nordies to enter their competitions

Yes a born winner. Barney and Niall are a team he doesn't hide behind him
All I am saying if Down want that winning spark Niall could be that man
Should he drop his backroom team for a few pound. No
My views will not change he is one of the best up and coming managers in Ulster
Liatrom Clonduff and Castlewellan all wanted him

I thought born winners normally win something so must have missed something. I hear also we have missed out on No 1 choice for U20s as they had already headed for Ballybay. Second choice look like remaining at IFC winners. Wide open from here

Any word on who will get the U20's job? I would have liked wee James to take it, as he's coached a lot of players as minor manager.

Ffs that's brought them all on well.

Why are CPN at 2 ? What is that based on ? 1 championship final ?


Think it's also based on Set Dancing and recitation achievements as well. Just not sure about Ballad group

The Ulster Cship will be fun.
What if a game for Mon/Cav winners or Donegal games (if they win) is scheduled for the North.

Are we now saying they can refuse to cross the border

Not being an expert on this Tier 5 in the South but is there anything about quarantining for 14 days if someone goes to the black North or are Waterford making that one up?

Absolute bullshit

I played for three soccer clubs in different junior leagues in the north.

Two of the three owned one kit each; the third owned two. Along with a few balls and water bottles, that was their entire inventory. This appeared to be the same for every club in each of the leagues, given that all the games we played every week were on council pitches.

None of the three I played for had a bank account.

thewobbler's figure may not be 100% accurate, but it is a much more accurate representation than anything BB2 has come up with.

Wobs figure is 99.9% accurate, BB2 ge yer head a wobble

Not sure why Wobbler even bothers engaging these eejits. If truth be told a significant number of GAA clubs not only own their own grounds but would have 2/3 pitches and all maintained to high standard

I'm also going to take a guess that's you've never been in the six counties. As well as never having volunteered for anything in your life, or completed a grant form in your history, you are probably the least qualified person one could find to contribute to this thread.

But just keep clinging to that typo, if it make you happy. That'll pay the bills for whatever team you move your armchair support to this year.

Spot on Wobbler. You are wasting your time with this one.
