let me open my first post by saying hello to everyone, i've been following this board for some time now but have just decided to start posting recently, it is a lot better than the tripe on the hoganstand,

can anyone tell me why the county board couldn't find a ref for the lawrences v mitchels game in liverpool?? Our game against Annes was a walkover as they couldn't field so instead we had a practice game with Oisins v St Annes/Lawrences,

I see there was five points between Peters and Brendans can anyone tell me what the game was like, I watched the drawn game a few weeks back and it was a pretty intense game (think it was junior),

finally anybody heading to the county games down at bedians on sunday, should be a couple of cracking games, any thoughts on what the best line out for Lancashire will be and are Yorkshire any good??

Ok thats enough questions for my first post I think.

I say fair play to Nixon for doing something to help these young lads on the way to becoming pro athletes, if it wasn't for him some of these lads would be used and swallowed up by the gaa county boards, at leat witht he likes of the lions, the swans or carlton they will be looked after and treated as professionals, nobody ever seems to mention how we have lost so many young lads to the lure of british soccer, how many scouts or agents are working in ireland at the moment for foreign clubs?? just because ricky is the first of his kind to be full time-ish in Ireland means he gets singled out by the media and and GAA coaches alike as a bad thing. Give it a few years and this will be the norm mark my words.

this one is for anybody living off of the island of ireland, if you want to watch rte online then it is worth investing a few pound on a ip changer software package, ip hider is one i use and it works perfectly, i watched cavan v antrim and laois v kildare on saturday using it aswell as watching all of rte's back programmes on the rte player, just a thought,
