Spending too much time browsing this site. And paying for it by having to repeat 2 frickin exams in August. 

Anyone listening to Mc Hugh Giving out about ref!!

Wouldn't listen to that buck if he was sitting beside me. Can't suffer him.

And another one. Could be a rout.

Our two Eastern neighbours could have face a long Autumn and Winter of rebuilding.

It wouldn't be that much of an upset if Ballinrobe won tomorrow. Seen as we have a lot of players in America for the Summer. A lot will depend if the Knockmore players are misbehaving at Declan Dempsey's wedding today. (If they're at it, that is)

Mayo also played Cork that day. And lost...

Will these games be at neutral venues or will there be home venues? (for round 3 backdoor games)

Seen as it is about Collins v De Valera. Haven't all the political parties agreed with Collins on his signing of the treaty. Even FF and SF have too. Especially since the Republic of Ireland has given up her claim on the Six counties. Myself, I would classify myself against the treaty back in 1921. However there's no real party with that view anymore. It is indeed power at all costs for all of them!

'Oh Bless me Father for I have sinned,
She has big brown eyes and silky skin,
Oh Bless me Father I couldn't resist,
Father, you have no idea what you missed!'

Don't know the rest of the words to the Sawdoctors song but it's a good one.

On a more serious, there's a new general absolution in our diocese. It saves hassle of going into the Confessional boxes, but it's not recognised by the church and I can't remember when I was last at Confessions. It must be at least 3/4 years ago.

Probably in Farrandeelin!

Is it just me or is my username first along the bottom list whenever I am online? Or do others see their own username first?

Yes men say that the treaty was to make Europe more democratic. Why didn't all of Europe get to vote on it then? Could any yesman tell me that? Biteen of a paradox I think!

Which of you Antrim boys prefer hurling to football? Just wondering as the county seems to have a split for first preference judging by the 2 threads.

Next Saturday will see an incredible 23 senior inter-county football and hurling matches take place around the country, including the All-Ireland SHC qualifier double header of Cork against Galway and Waterford playing Offaly in Thurles.

No wonder attendances are dropping in all fairness. If most of these were held on Sunday people might decide to go instead of working on Saturdays.

Is O'Mahony still a lucky general?

Well his luck ran out yesterday if he is. FFS, I still cannot understand the decision to leave Heaney 'on' Joyce. As well as that, Lar said that there should have been intensity from the start, a kind of get in among them, but none. I admit, I was happy when JOM took the job at the start, but he has done nothing new really. I hate to say it but we won't win an AI under O'Mahony. I hope I'm wrong though.

Would agree with what Ryano said. Ros should have been out of sight at half-time but were only 1 in front. Delighted for Dempsey though, bringing the first Connacht Minor title to the county in 7 years. It still doesn't make up for the Seniors losing though.

joemamas comments about Joyce are not out of order, he was not marked when he got on the ball today and that was the difference. Mayo had to work harder and had more passes to get their scores. Really disappointed with the way we lost it after going 1 up.

I have to say that management will have a lot of blame to take. Why the hell didn't they put on Aiden Higgins and Gardiner earlier (or else start one of them), for God's sake Clancy was giving Nallen the runaround early on.

I thought McGarrity did as good as he could have done with big Barry Cullinane under most of the kick-outs that he contested. Harte did ok I thought. Nallen did well though when he was moved off Clancy. Parsons didn't have as good a game as he had against Sligo. I suppose it was hard to expect him to but he should have been ready for Galway is what I'm trying to say.

For most of the second half, we had Galway on the rack imo. Those 2 goals early on in the game were the big ones. I would agree with what posters say about Galway's midfield fade out, but there's not much football in their midfield in all fairness.

Andy Moran was the only one of the full-forward line who performed well I thought despite Conor scoring a few points. Conor I thought had a poor game by his standards and had 3 wides in the first few minutes of the game. It seems Barney is right all along about Austin O'Malley, he cannot cut it at championship football. Saying that though the Galway backs deserve credit for putting the shackles on the full-forward line. Kilcoyne got his goal after coming on again, Padden did well enough too when he came on. How Cullinane only got a yellow card with that haymaker on Harte is beyond me.

I'll give more of my opinions later but right now, I'm one very pissed off Mayoman.
