Minors or soccer...choose

[longrunsthefox]

I actually know a few people in Tyrone could have got tickets for All Ireland tomorrow and want to stay at home to see Man U Clothing Company first.  I often watch half of minor game first in hotel and have a meal but my guess Man C and U game will be on TVs. Just wondering what fellow Gaels  would choose... minor All Ireland on RTE or soccer on SKY...zzzzzzzzzzz
Guess I'll go to all of minor game which I suppose I should always do...

If Armagh weren't in the minors and I'd probably watch the soccer to be honest. I can see why people might be ambivalent about an underage match not involving their own county.

The minor game no question. I can see why people might be ambivalent about a soccer match not invoving any team from your own country.

As I dont watch soccer the question doesnt really arise but for the record it's the Minor game for me ( especially as there is Roscommon involvement  )

Soccer bores the tits out of me to be honest and I would probably pick an under 16 east down grade c semi final as opposed to a game of soccer.

I can remember you being a big Newcastle man!

Agree with you there- even if I was at home would have no interest in watching the Manchester game compared to minor All Ireland no matter who is in it.

Maybe thats the reason for my bitterness towards the "beautiful game."  To be fair gone off it in last few years. Watching 90 minutes to maybe 6 or 7 shots at goal the whole game. Though I have no problem watching condensed highlights.

It would really depend on who was playing in the minors and who was playing in the soccer. 

[magpie seanie]

I will see a lot of the minor gam and none of United v. City

[Orior]

Minors - yes
Senior - yes
Soccer - no

[ziggysego]

Minors and Seniors, the real thing.

Was in Sinnots tonight. The no of people on first name terms with 'stevie'' yossie' and 'jamie' would sicken yer shite. Even the minors of the perennial failures that are ourma are better than that!

I don't like replying in threads like this as, in the same sense that I don't reply in threads about things that dont interest me, like in this case association football as its best you just dont pay attention to them but since its in the GAA section. I would watch welly throwing before I'd watch Ireland in their current struggle to qualify for a chance at quadrennial failure. Hell I even watched Northern Ireland* the other day instead, though this is because I live with Polish people who were interested.

So long storey short, I'll be watching the minors.

*which is hard to distinguish from welly throwing

Likewise. I'd rather shit myself than watch that crap across the water.
