Quote from: marty34 on October 30, 2025, 05:21:43 PMHow, and where is this going to end?

That family won't ever stopped. Any semblance of support they have/had is gone..

It's a family of severe Autism problems
I see Enoch got released today. Judging by the amount of stuff he had out with him he seems to have gathered a lot of stuff since November. Given that he'll probably be back behind bars before the middle of next week it would have been handier if he'd left some of it behind him

Go build whatever is possible for the new budget once that is finalised.

Anything North of the Athletic Grounds would be more than ample.

Plush seating and Catering for blazers and corporates a bonus omly if it can be afforded.

Strange perspective.

I think the working presumption is that these seats pay for themselves and add to the viability of stadia. At the expense, in terms of space, of the ordinary punter but not in any other sense. They are not so much an optional add-on but rather a somewhat regrettable must-have.

Quote from: weareros on December 20, 2025, 06:38:40 PMNothing will ever be done while the department mollycoddling the Ulster Farmers Union is the same department in charge of the Environment.
The North has problems without solutions- Lough Neagh, the A5, Casement.
Nothing gets fixed.
No imperative or incentive to fix anything in the north. The same people get voted in along green and orange (and yellow) lines regardless of their individual party achievements, or more usually lack of achievement.
If you notice all of the above has a nationalist slant but SF are allowing the DUP, and the Civil Service officials, to run rings round them. I'm a lifelong SF voter but I'll be voting SDLP next time

It's absolutely shocking. Why they couldn't delay his start until after Roma and the cup final is beyond me. Also why on earth they chose a guy who hasn't managed anywhere apart from North America is even further beyond me

Excuse my ignorance but is this good news or bad news for those of us who want to see the road built?

Collected wages and expenses.
In fairness Mickey Brady did immense work for his constituents and still does even though he's retired. As a former welfare rights worker he's kept very busy around Newry. He might not maintain a high public profile but he's highly regarded by the people of Newry and the wider area

Quote from: Dougal Maguire on November 09, 2025, 07:14:43 PMI was at the self build event yesterday at Eikon Centre and there weren't many on show. Any that were displayed were the little badge type. I didn't see any  exhibitors wearing them
You walked around a self-build show clocking who was wearing a poppy and what size they were?
It was just an observation

No but top of the poppies is

I was finding it difficult to understand what he was up to for some time. Paid big money for Trusty and Engles but gave them little game time. I'd like to see M O'N stay until the end of the season

As someone who is retired I would just make this reflection, when you're young with a young family you have little money and lots you could spend it on, when you're older you've plenty of money and a lot less to spend it on. My advice therefore is to enjoy life when you're young and don't be scrimping on things in order to have jam tomorrow
