Cavan really should be nowhere near div2 next year if results go their way.

Meath should have been home & hosed with the goal chances.

Quote from: statto on February 29, 2024, 09:29:30 AMIs there no academy graduates who could do a job at left back?  Shaw/Malacia always injured and look so lopsided when Dalot/Lindelof play there.  Lindelof is poor in natural position and brings nothing going forward.  Reguilion was a disaster, Spurs couldn't wait to ship him on again. 

The signing of AWB for £45million was more poor business, given that the recruitment team should have been aware of his frailties going forward and knowing that United would be expected to dominate possession particularly at OT.

 

I read or heard that before they signed AWB they looked at something like 80 different RBs.

10 fold... "He was #MUFC's top pick from a database of 804 right backs"

A big problem in the occupied 6 is, retired teachers are being hired as part-timers in schools, when recent grads are sitting idle.

At god knows what daily rate.

As someone with limited knowledge of hurling, what would the complaints of him be?

Personally I've always seen him as very positive.

Plus his twitter outbursts are head in hands stuff. Some caic typed
He can be a bit of a gobshíte along the line especially during the club championship games when sub/managing the Shamrocks.

Quote from: LC on February 22, 2024, 06:38:09 PMMoved in to the public sector a few years ago after 20+ years in the private sector.  Took a sizeable pay cut but joined mainly for pension, holidays etc plus less travelling.

No doubt about the public sector is full of a serious amount of arseh*les full of their own importance and would not last 5 mins in the private sector.  To them their job is crap but none of them will leave because they know if they went somewhere else they might have to work.

My 'welcome to the public sector' moment was when I asked one of my department members to do something one day and they turned around and said that it was not in their job description so they refused to do it.



I always thought it was a myth, that the public sector is where you want your career to end up? What # of hols are we talking compared to private sector? Generally private is 25 plus bank hols etc.

People who want the Ulster final to remain in Clones need their heads examined.

Town = dump
Ground = dump

Niall Morgan is becoming a very unlikeable footballer.  Becoming a pure mouth with macho man attempts.

Quote from: square_ball on February 17, 2024, 03:10:41 PMSimilar to the MacRory Cup final, the camera work by BBC is atrocious. Just keep with the wide angled camera. There is a split second difference when they change cameras.

Same for Armagh v Louth. Kept cutting to a zoomed camera, then back to wide lense, back to zoom. Impossible to follow.
