Whilst in charge of Corofin, Rochford was prone to making the odd "left field" selection for some important matches and as it turned out, theses usually worked as Corofin were/are quite dominant at club level in Galway and obviously won the Club AI during his tenure.  The Hennelly selection is along the lines of something he is quite capable of doing and I do believe it was his decision but unfortunately for him it backfired on the biggest stage of all.

Every manager in the country has made left field decisions. It just so happens this one fell in line with the 'suggestions' of the O'Sheas. More than likely if Rochford is halfways aware he knew they liked Hennelly better. I think it's obvious it conttributed to what happened - if you're shakey enough about your All-Star keeper to consider changing him in an AIF replay knowing your midfielders want the other guy is likely to put you over the top.

Again you are desperately trying to twist the evidence.

We know it happened once, with Seamie, under H&C. That is all you know and you are making up the rest.

You're suggesting Rochford didn't know they liked their own clubmate more? Are you trolling or something?

No, the other two implications in your post.

You are still implying it was more than one O'Shea, please show some evidence of this.
And you are still implying that they are responsible for the change of goalkeepers in October 2016. Please show some evidence of this.

Otherwise stop passing your theories off as 'more than likely' crap.

I doubt very much the O Se's and Rochford were discussing the flight path of the seagulls around Croke Park at the AI Semi Final.

And which goalkeeper started the game after the semi-final?

Russia swung it for him.

Look at your own outrage at the words 'emails'.

What was in those emails again?

Emails shemales......Democratic operatives planted a hidden camera at a closed door Romney fundraiser and broadcast his 47% comment to the world which very possibly cost him the '12 election.

Regardless of how the emails came into the public domai , it was the content that cost them votes.....content that they alone were responsible for

If she was a better candidate, the emails wouldn't have mattered a fluck. Democrats start off with a huge advantage under the electoral college system and she still fvcked it up.....and she ran a shit campaign

https://www.google.com/amp/m.huffpost.com/us/entry/us_582cacb0e4b058ce7aa8b861/amp

B-b-but you were completely outraged at those emails!

You said you would have supported her if you lived in a swing state. Now what was in those emails that changed your mind? Trump supporters chanted, like a Mugabe mob, 'Lock her up'. For what?

I wasn't "outraged" at the emails

I was outraged at the fact Chelsea Clinton stole money from the Clinton Foundation to pay for her wedding

I was outraged at the fact that senior DOJ officials were emailing John Podesta to give him a heads up about the investigation

Having 3 family members in the military, (one with a possibly the highest levels of security clearance) I was outraged that Hillarys emails were on Anthony Wieners laptop.

So you were and weren't outraged about the emails.

Ok.

And what does a security clearance matter anyway? Trump has cancelled his intelligence briefings because he is 'smart'. Thus your president thinks security briefings only for dumb people?

Lol-it didn't do Obama much good sitting in on all his briefings.....how are the JV Terrorists doing these days. I wonder if he sent them a holiday card

Ah right.

But Iceman, those concerns can also be thrown at plenty of straight people. Lots of straight men sleep around excessively, even compulsively, and are afraid to commit to a single woman. I've known and know a few women with the same issue. And I know gay men who are married and have been faithful to their husbands for years. Like I said in an earlier post, it may well be the case that some gay men need to cop themselves on and not take advantage of the male libido squared issue. And I'm sure, as with straight people, its not just about getting laid and they're, as you say, filling a gap. Perhaps now that society is in fact allowing them to come out of the shadows and live, openly and respectfully, as ordinary couples and families, those gaps will be filled and the destructive behaviour will decrease.

I've no argument with you on the twins thing, but that's hardly an argument against homosexuality. Permissiveness gone crazy perhaps, as you suggest. But we shouldn't throw out the baby with the bath water. Just because society grows more accepting of homosexuality and transgenderism and the rest, doesn't mean there is no end point to what should be tolerated or that siblings all over the place are going to start fighting through their natural, sexual repulsion towards each other.
But don't you think that the gay men faithful to their partners are the exception? And the straight man who has 100s of lovers is the exception? There are lots of stats out there on the number of sexual partners a normal/typical gay man has versus a straight man. 
When or who will draw a line on whats accepted? transgenderism, what's next? I've seen mothers and son's arguing to be married - there are court cases here on it, siblings...I just don't know where it is all going but if it doesn't slow down or stop I do know it isn't a place I want to raise kids...

Iceman, are you serious?

The bollocks you read in the media .

So last night on twitter from a news site - Belfast christmas market evacuated due to stabbing someone being stabbed and requiring medical attention. I go to Facebook to see several photos of people at belfast christmas market with no abandonment.

Then this morning police say there was no one else involved in the incident.

So what are we to believe? Someone went down to the christmas market and stabbed themselves?? (Don't get me wrong it's not implausible but even so)

(Oh and now it is near the christmas market).

Maybe some celebrity felt the urgent need to donate something?

No one is so goodat cycling to be clean a2nd competing for tour wins, its that simple folks.

That's it. Just recently read the Tyler Hamilton book, The Secret Race. He was famed for having an incredible pain threshold and work ethic. When he first raced in Europe he couldn't believe the power of the riders. He was consistently battling just to finish races and not get cut. When he finally made the 'a' team, and had his first hit of epo, just one hit, he finished in the top 20 the next race. There is not a single rider at the top level 'clean' imo

Good book.

https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2016/dec/21/british-biathlon-union-boycott-world-cup-russia-doping

Great Britain will boycott the biathlon World Cup in Russia in March, with executives branding Russian athletes "brainwashed" for disowning the McLaren report.

The board of the British Biathlon Union has voted unanimously to shun the World Cup meeting in Tyumen in March......

......."The board has taken the unanimous decision that Great Britain will not compete at the biathlon World Cup in Tyumen," the British Biathlon Union's statement read.

"This follows the brain-washed, deluded and dishonest comments of Russian World Cup athletes that McLaren is about politics, not sport and the unprecedented booing of the Russian female athlete who won the sprint at World Cup Two last weekend in Nove Mesto.



Delighted that the Brits are taking the high moral ground on doping in sports.  ;D ;D

I am pretty sure Bomber, Syferus and Indiana are the same person as there could not be 3 people with less of a clue about the Mayo GAA scene.And by the way Connelly was offered the Corofin job last year so the heave did not affect his ability to get a top managerial job

I think we've established the lack of a clue Mayo fans have about admitting the truth about their team.

What a mess- who picked hennelly then so if we're all clueless?

Finally.

A good start.

The imaginary Breaffy selection committee didn't pick Hennelly for 6 games in a row, including an All-Ireland Final.

But of course Dublin supporters, after one Martin Breheny December article, know more about what goes on behind the scenes in Mayo, than Mayo people.

Manager to wear shorts and have a tan.
Oh never mind.
Not the players fault, they have given everything to win Sam. 100 % committed every one of then. You wouldn't see Aidan OShea doing tv ads like that Bernard Brogan lad. What's he ever done/won!!!

All management's fault. Should get rid of them and get someone else who can truly appreciate and understand the players. Bring back John Maughan.

Quick question. I think it's accepted by everybody that's Bernard Brogan the past couple of years despite winning his 3rd and 4th All Ireland is not playing at the levels he used to. Do you think this drop off can be attributed to Twitter followers, TV shows and all his advertising work. If so do you think Brian Cody would tolerate this.

Well he had a right cut at King Henry before in front of the panel for allowing his promotional stuff to take his eye off the sliotar.

We all have to work. If some people choose to do some of that work in the public eye, so what?

Is unseen work not a distraction, while publicly visible work is a distraction? How does this thinking work? Do this all change after you win an All-Ireland medal and suddenly not become a distraction?

Breheny sticks the boot into Ronan McGarrity.

'...Meanwhile, their former colleague Ronan McGarrity declared that "any criticism Mayo players get is wrong". He has 'no time for that' and claimed it "was a bit of a mystery" why Holmes and Connelly had spoken out.

Check what happened, Ronan. Was it okay for the squad to inflict huge reputational damage on Holmes and Connelly, yet when the managers respond it's deemed to be disloyal...'



I wonder how long he will be milking this story?
