NI. What class of Gael are you. I suppose you dont understand that the playing and following of gaelic games is an integral part of our cultural identity up here but why would you. For my part I will support any of the Nine Ulster counties against others.

Why? Them -v- us, is it? Now who's being political and excessively tribal?

Why do you support the 9 over everyone else? Are you being political, provincial or parochial?

I didn't call you anything. Just asking why you would support the 6 or 9 over any other county. I'm from Tipp, doesn't mean I support every other county in Munster. If Kerry were playing Mayo in the All Ireland, I'd be cheering for Mayo. Why can't you do the same?

Lads,

Ye're talking about 9 here......can i remind ye that Dev (sorry Collins) only signed away 6 !!!!!!!!!!

Where's Gaelic Warrior?

Unfortunately I couldn't get near the internet the whole weekend. Bit of a sh!tty weekend really, we lost in both the senior and minor football. Well done to Dublin, we could have been hammered but thankfully we avoided that much at least. If only the whole game could've been like the final 10 mins, will get the highlights later. Looking forward to our qualifier against Loais. Hopefully we can get another shot at ye

.....why couldn't it have been baaarnard?....

As for the rest of this thread where did all this partisan pish come from? Same kind of stuff I've seen elsewhere from a section of Ulster posters, everyone's against Ulster, under siege, nobody in the south goes for us e.t.c. and then on the other hand at least their not in the Eurozone, lads you can't have it both ways, you're either glad to have been abandoned/British subjects*COUGH* or not. Personally I used to go for Ulster counties when Meath weren't playing....but the BBC don't seem to show those games on demand over here now so in a way I've been saved from sinking to such depths.

What the hell happened in the second half of the Leinster final? I stopped wathing at half time as I though the game was over but Meath claw it back to 3 points and hit something like 10 second half wides? How did that happen?

Haven't seen it myself yet Thom but going by match reports I've seen it was a mixture of the Dubs taking their foot off the gas thinking they've had it done and dusted and Meath's subs injecting a bit of fight into it. Farrel leading the charge and Jamie Queenie's goal made the world of difference, Bernard Brogan seemed to have kept the Dubs alive at this stage with the royals fighting back a 10pt deficit.

What happened- Meath didn't realise that they were good enough to win the game until the last 15 minutes. They were way better than I though they were. Shocking amount of wides on their part.

Is Connolly injured? He was missed yesterday.

Bernard Brogan man of the match. Have to say he is looking very rough around the gills.

Just to add. Pretty good football over the weekend.

Fancy Tipp to take Down down.

Patrick started it.

That's what happens when the usual posters dissappear, things get boring. Where's Rebel gone? He could always be relied on to keep things going.

Haven't seen Rebel around in ages either Moda, probably had too much ice-cream and jelly on not606.

Even as a Meath supporter I disgree with that analysis from what I've heard. The close scoreline betrays how much of the game Dublin were on top for, we did kick a lot of wides for sure but the Dubs also scuffed a great chance to score a goal. It was only towards the end of the game that Meath came back in but bernard still managed to keep them in front. Pat Gilroy didn't seem entirely convinced by the performance of his subs either. We didn't cause Dublin's defence as much trouble for most of it. Brian Farrell best player for Meath.

I though Sheridan caught some great ball. To come from 10 points down to within 3. Who do they meet next?

That's what happens when players go premiership soccer-like and start messing with "models"

Gazwaz - my commisserations on the loss. I completely missed the game because BT decided to deprive this area of broadband for the afternoon!

Laois up next in the 4th round, beaten by longford before narrow wins over Carlow, Monaghan and Leitrim....think we should nail this one.

Thanks Cari.

Not to worry though. If we're victorious against Laois we could set up a re-match!

What model, never heard anything about that? Do you not think BB is looking a bit rough?

Are you taking in a match this year ?

Meath should gain great confidence after yesterday, Laois shouldn't pose too much of a problem.

After reading all of this guff about people in the South being against the Northern teams I found this article today, it was taken directly from the Tyrone website.

One GAA Family United in Respect

Long after the thousands had left Fitzgerald Stadium last Saturday evening our Tyrone team was getting ready for a bitter journey home. Around 500 Kerry people remained outside the changing area – men and women, old and young. As our people started to board their coach a ripple of applause met them. That ripple grew and grew and for long minute after long minute just went on and on and on.

When Mickey Harte appeared, a cheer of support went up. As the coach headed down through Killarney hundreds on the pavements took over where the others left off, warmly applauding Tyrone. There is no doubt that Ireland lost a lot and took a lot of wrong turns in the last few years. But if you wanted your faith in decency, respect, honour and dignity restored, then Killarney at about eight o’clock last Saturday evening was the place to be.

Inspirational. Unforgettable. Classy.

Oh Blue...get with the gossip! I read it on the Irish Indo website so it has to be true. Bernie's dropped his long term girlfriend and gone off with some "model" that no one's ever heard of. Muppet! Everyone knows he should've tried a bit of Welsh rarebit...

Sadly no games for me this year as booking time off over this summer has been impossible as I've only been in my current job for eight months. All the summer leave was taken when I started. So it's down O'Neils or Dempsey's to watch it on the box

The girlfriend from last year emigrated to Australia and she dumped BB, that's what I read.

Never heard of the model though. No wonder he's looking rough.

How rare is the Welsh rarebit?

You're more likely to find a sheep than a rarebit
