I see MacCumhaills have been given a 6 day turnaround, and it could have been avoided. Makes the county board statements during the summer look hypocritical.

Replying To Onion Breath: "Looking at the fixtures for next weekend it looks very unfair on Fenagh that they play Pal on Saturday night (and in fairness will surely lose) but then Bagenalstown and Tinryland will not play until Sunday afternoon - so both will know exactly what they have to do to go through as Fenagh's scoring difference will be known.
Surely those games should be played at the same time with one of them moved to the Training Centre?" I'm not 100% sure if I'm correct with this, but I'm fairly sure when 3 teams are level on points and H2H cancels itself out it's only the score difference from the games including the 3 teams count. Therefore the results vs. Pal would be irrelevant as far as I know

Replying To S1234: "I'm not always picking rows with everyone here . Just because some of you don't like the facts. The fact is alot of you even ones from Leitrim & Wicklow slag Mayo off and then say your not anti Mayo on here . As I said previously we are in transition and have no expectations . Maybe don't keep using the same phrase " Mayo won't win anything " as the poster from Leitrim above said also. Then you might not get ones " picking rows " . Just the facts man ." I live in Wicklow but Im a True blue Dub. Yes you do pick rows as your posts make no sense and Im only giving the facts on Mayo.Serial bottlers.

Anybody else think the media coverage of the boxers at the world championships is pathetic? Why do we seem so uncomfortable with the fact it's our most successful international sport and we'd rather hear about mediocre runners?

For a small country we are constantly overachieving in the ring and it's fantastic. These athletes deserve far more recognition. But hey let's keep pushing the women's rugby narrative

Replying To LottoPlus: "I could not see nor anyone in the stand around me could see how Oughterard got the penalty. We got one earlier soft, but this one was ridiculous. I was gutted and the felt for the lads who battled with a very young team. I think the future is very bright for Claregalway. Just need to hold onto lads. I think we will have Frank Fox in 3-4 years.
I also went to Tuam on Saturday to see Annaghdown v St Michaels expecting to see Annaghdown get relegated and to be honest they deserve some credit. Hobbling through the year with injuries, they pulled off a shock.(Well I thought Michaels would win). Their second half was totally different that the first and they seem to change tactics Kilcommins sat back in centre back and quieten Higgins (who I thought had a great first half) Comer although injured was brilliant, Frankie Burke rolled back the years. On a sour note I thought referee gave Micheals some awful soft frees. Not as bad as our match but not great either.
We have some really good referees out there but the two I saw at the weekend were not two of them. Football referees have everything they want now, no talk back, no abuse, respect from players but this must be 2 ways. The referees need to be up to speed with the rules and also respect the players and be fair." These games overlapped Saturday how did you attend both

Ignoring games v Palatine, the scoring difference currently looks like:
Bagenalstown +14
Tinryland -2
Fenagh -12
So Fenagh need to get a result against Palatine or hope Bagenalstown beat or draw with Tinryland.

Replying To tirawleybaron: "you should be posting this in the Kerry group. The only relevance to the rest of us is that An Gaeltacht will now be favorites for the All Ireland intermediate championship on account of being the 9th best club in the most successful football county in the country. Off they march to beat the 13th best team in Limerick (Hurling county) to get to a provincial final." That contributor just likes to see his own posts up but its good for insomnia.

Replying To old yellar: "I think from a county perspective Johnny Nevin of Carlow appearances would be hard matched. He played 331 times at senior level for the county (national league, championship, Kehoe cup, O'Byrne cup etc - no challenges!!) across both codes. I don't know if there's anyone with those sort of figures?" Thats some record alright for an outfield player.Its easier for a keeper to play longer as less running.

Replying To letsgetgoing: "Aoife O' Rourke has done it again and made it to the 75kg World Championship final which takes place tomorrow. She will fight Busra Isildar from Turkey. A lot of experts will tell you that it is harder to win a World Championship boxing medal that an Olympic medal as a lot of places at the Olympics are reserved for parts of the World that are not strong on boxing. All the top boxing nations are in Liverpool. Therefore it is a fantastic achievent already.
Catching an early flight to Liverpool early tomorrow morning to cheer Aoife on and I expect her to win and bring a gold medal back to Roscommon. If she does not, it is still a fantastic achievement.
The fight is on tomorrow at 13.30 (might be a couple of minutes later) and can be seen for free at Eurovisionsport.com. "live"
Lisa and Aoife and the O'Rourke family should feel very proud of themselves. Up the Rossies!" Super win for Aoife, massive achievement. Fair play for making the trip, sounded like big Irish supoort.

Replying To OverTheHill85: "Certainly seemed to be very popular amongst the players and the facility was there to use as they wished. As with any management I guess they want their own men." Yes, but if players are happy, you don't need to create that issue.

Replying To Lockjaw: "MacCumhaills v St. Michaels = Saturday 17:00 - O'Donnell Park
Kilcar v Goath Dobhair = Saturday 19:30 - Davy Brennan Memorial Park
Naomh Conaill v Termon = Sunday - 15:00 - O'Donnell Park
Four Masters v Dungloe = Sunday - 16:30 - Fr. Tierney Park" Seems very unfair on Mac Cumhaills to have a 6 day turnaround after Donegall GAA whinging about that to the GAA themselves after a prelim qf only a few weeks ago.
Seems when they're the decision makers, they don't have the same care for the welfare of players!
