The farming community has been gunning for Muir for a long time given his desire to give DAERA's environmental responsibilities a higher priority.

So he is on his way home. Air Corps jet landing in Baldonnel today

Can you follow the flight on flight radar?

Amplified music is now a plague at fleadhs but it has crept in over the years although Ennis and Mullingar were free of it from what I can remember. Banty McEnaney's pub was blasting out John Cougar and the like when the Fleadh was in Drogheda, there was considerable piped and amplified music in Derry while Wexford, along the quay, had a huge car park converted to open air venue with loads of loud music from various genres.

Been up a couple of times now. Was very apprehensive and it's the first Fleadh in about 30 years that I haven't stayed over and while the train service has been pretty chaotic at least it is a very viable alternative although I think I will stay next year depending on the feedback from the camper van fraternity about the campsite facilities. Great idea having it and Feile on at the same time as it split the crowds. Council et al has really bought into it and the feedback has quite rightly been very positive. I'd like to see Belfast get it for a third year

UTV News obviously spent ages trawling businesses in Belfast to find a negative slant. They managed to find an optician who said that his business was negatively impacted. When they put this point to the representative from the Chamber of Commerce, she quickly put them in their box highlighting all the positives.

The opticians should have seen it coming 😮

Personally I think he made a spectacle of himself

Interesting story here.

I wonder who the Minister is? 

If the Shinners had been in charge of Education they would have been pulling the same strokes.

Unfortunately that's not the case. For some reason the Shinners seem to be determined to play fair while the DUP does it's utmost to keep its constituency happy which is why, for instance, they brought out a community hall refurbished Grant which was skewed to favour orange halls and church halls. They also introduced a grant scheme to put 3G pitches at orange halls and one at aughnacloy high school which was not justified but was built as Maurice Morrow was minister. You've got to hand it to them, meanwhile the SF ministers can't order a Chinese if their officials tell them they can only have an Indian and they're eating at home if the DUP decides that Indian is off the menu too

Good old Fr Stone

If he is allowed to appeal is it a full run of the previous trial, putting those girls through the wringer again?

Where to start on last night. It's the hope that kills they say and England will be crushed today. They've led a pretty charmed tournament up to this but in 20 minutes flat all their chickens not only came home to roost, but completely lay the boot into them when they were prone on the floor.

They are a counter attacking team. That is their strength, that is their player profile. They don't produce orchestra conductors for the middle and they don't have 5 Maldinis or the like in defense. They went 1 nil up, perfect, but then turned the screw on themselves instead.

Proof of the pudding is always in the eating and hard to feel sorry for Tuchel with the shit coming his way. Made some pretty big statements with his squad selection that haven't stood the test. You always need a little something different in tournaments so what the hell was the point in bringing Mainoo if he had no intention of playing him, EVER! Henderson on the bench with a broken arm. Palmer and Foden at home. The Greek tragedy writes itself. Trent too could have offered something a bit different at some stage. He's a brave man staying in the job because he will be despised in that squad. The phone calls for the next round up of the troops will be funny. Even big Harry will be thinking he would have cut out that cross and the desperate tactic of giving it to Pickford to pump up the field 70 yards was tailor made for him. It's so f*****g hilarious I almost feel sorry for the twats in their ranks. And Bellingham with all his Billy big bollix digs at the manager and ex players that this team doesn't choke!!!! Only thing missing was for Pickford to trip on his laces and face plant the ball into the back of his own net.

Good post, but given what's come before it and after it reminds me of the 2 Ronnies doing the news:
Sport now, and in the match between Celtic and Rangers, fighting was interrupted when football broke out on the pitch

Should Tyrone keeper not have got a black card

Hopefully France will now see these boys off. Absolutely nothing to offer. It'll be good to see the back of them

A5 not delivered
Irish Language Act not delivered
Casement not delivered
Maze Prison not delivered
DUP and Civil Servants running rings round SF

Whatever happens, Argentina are poor. We'll need Spain or France to stop the sassenach (who are shite too but so is the standard).  CV should go for it.

You won't have to wait that long, Mexico will send them on the next plane home

Back to cheering on an ENGLISH club next month

Well in fairness the same could be said for the majority of people on this Board
