Sean og warming up on the sideline before halftime. Donegal won't know what hit them in the second half. He's been going well in training.

5500 looked very ambitious for Down v Antrim on Saturday evening. Maybe someone who was there could give their thoughts.

We give Roma whatever they want for Allison anything else and we are just kidding ourselves.
We also need to learn some in game management, maybe Keita will bring some of that with him but we are just too nice as things stand.
Bales goal was worthy of winning any game, but we gifted them another two. That's another one we left behind us.

Progress is winning trophies, anything else is just bullshit and excuses. Is Klopp wearing the emperors new clothes?

I see quite a popular and what I thought was a successful business in north Louth has had to pull the plug after 25 years trading. Anyone know the story here?

Eddie Haughey isn't available to bail him out anymore, but it's a strange one alright. The place was packed out 6 nights a week, serving greasy over priced food to tourists and those who don't know any better, but in Danny's defence they kept coming back.
The banks finally pulled the plug this week, but he still managed to pull a few strokes before it all came down around him. A horrible little man who finally got his just desserts.
The stench outside the place was over powering at times, it is just down river from a sewage plant.
All we need now is fat Jimmy Cumiskey auctioning everything off to put the icing on that particular cake.

Promotion of games my f**king arse.

The only promotion you've had in Ballyholland lately is in the Carnbane league.

But if a few quid can be made selling pints and watching the pool who gives a feck eh?

It's supporting Irish industry.

Maybe some of the Ballyholland lads could keep this thread updated on Saturday evening, if their bandwidth allows, for those of us following the Down game from Kiev. 

All this talk about Ballyholland showing the Liverpool game and how they should show Down is a load of bollocks.
They are well entitled to show whatever they want. The Down County Board and Ulster GAA had ample opportunity to change the game and maximise the gate but as usual they know better, same crowd who advocated building in BallyKinlar and obviously expecting families to fork out upwards on £70 quid to get into Down game to pay for it.
They don't have any regard for the ordinary 5/8 so why would anyone worry about whether a soccer or gaelic game is on the TV.
Simple if you are that worried about Down take a seat in the stand, if not take a seat in your local club. They'll all have the BIG game on.

The Club is the basic unit of the Association and the primary structure through which the GAA undertakes its mission, which states 'The GAA is a community based volunteer organisation promoting Gaelic games, culture and lifelong participation.'

The objective of the Club is the promotion at local level of the Association's aims, as outlined in the Official Guide – Chapter 1: Aims and Ethos.

The Association's basic aim is to "strengthen the National Identity" through its primary purpose to promote and control the National games of Hurling, Gaelic Football, Handball and Rounders. Its additional aims are to:

• Actively support the Irish language and Irish culture

• Promote the aims of the GAA abroad through the oversees units - see our World GAA portal

• Support the promotion of Camogie and Ladies Gaelic Football

• Support Irish industry

The GAA Club is the bedrock of every Irish community and provides an organised structure from which great community spirit is generated. Today, almost every town and village in the country has its own GAA headquarters, centered on the playing of our exciting games and building on 125 years of great history and success. Our games are also spreading to communities abroad and there are now over 300 clubs affiliated to the GAA in Europe, the USA, Canada, Asia, Australia, New Zeland and Britain.

These clubs are a tremendous influence in their local communities. The GAA is a strong and vibrant Association thanks to the army of dedicated volunteers at Club level committed to the promotion and development of our clubs and our games.

It's vital our clubs continue to grow and reinvent themselves to ensure that this structure is reinforced. Through planning ahead for the future, the GAA will help ensure that clubs remain strong and that dedicated voluntary officials at Club level continue to commit to the promotion and development of our games and our Association.

Anyone in the Newry area can give advice via PM about a car dealer. Thinking of making a purchase but I've heard too many horror stories.

Thanks

If you've heard too many horror stories then I that tells you all you need to know.

Champions League Final 26 May

—-

The club will be showing the Champions League final on ALL screens on 26 May, including the build up.

We will have our usual special offers, including any 3 Coors, Corona, Heineken, Stella or Staropromen for £6, 2x VRB for £6, and a range of 500ml craft beers at £3.

Unfortunately this means we will not be streaming the Down match which is running side-by-side. To avoid confusion and potential for disagreement , it won't be shown at all.

This is by order of the committee.

Oh and ¡Hala Madrid!

Those Kia's and Hyundai's would want to come with a free balaclava, because there is no way anyone with any self respect would ever be seen driving one.

That is the biggest 'my head is up my own arse' post since Fearon posted about the rental income he was getting from the house he had inherited.

Very funny all the same. 

I knew that gobshite Dougal would have to reply, he probably sees a 4 year old Kia with remaining manufacturers warranty as aspirational.

This isn't a willy waving contest, but Kia's like the vast majority of people that drive them are more than a little bit dull. A grey Kia might brighten Dougal up a little.

Classic stuff there. What do you know about me that makes you reach that conclusion?

Sorry Dougal, grey would be a little showy for you, stick to beige.

Because?

/Jim.

Because they are an absolute plague. They are the motoring equivalent of white goods and every bit as exciting as a new dish washer. Why anyone would choose to drive one is beyond me.
