Day off running tomorrow but planning to go further afield to The Flavours of Fingal festival after morning swimming lessons. Unlikely to spot any Raheny players in the locality but will always keep my wits about me. That reminds me to pop over to the Celeb Spotting thread actually.
Any yerras I know seem to be genuinely worried once you get past the bluster. Think Kerry might have blown the load a bit early last time out and arenât as good as they seem. The Clifford boys cannot be at 100% no matter whatâs said.
Whatâs the deal with the Cliffords?
Their motherâs passing
I was talking to my man on the ground in Bellaghy this morning and he was saying Meenagh in charge hasnât a clue and that Chrissy McKaigue and Hercules are now effectively managing the team.
They are apprehensive about Cork on Sunday but feel theyâll still have enough. They want Dublin taken out this weekend though as they are the one team they want to avoid.
I will give you some solid advice. I went last year with two very small kids and the main area by Newbridge house was utter rammed - 20 minute + queues for all the food and beverage trucks.
If you wander a few hundred metres over past the playground where the gaa and cricket pitch normally is there is an array of livestock and farm machinery on display and a number of food trucks with no real queues and park benches to sit at and space for eye kids to roam about.
There is a new spot slap bang in the middle of the kids play areas that looks ideal. Has food stands and music

Thank you. Smashing advice.
Happy to return the f(l)avour & provide advice for The St Anneâs Park Rose Festival on 15-16 July.
Whereâs @Fulvio_From_Aughnacloy? I thought heâd be frothing at the mouth about the weekends game by now?
When was the last time Monaghan were in a semi final? 07 was it?
Iâd fear Dublin this year

When he addressed the media earlier this week, the Cork football manager John Cleary reflected on the frantic nature of it all.
From reviewing games to booking hotels, week-on-week action consumed time and energy and he wondered what the benefit of having a weekend off, in such a tight schedule, would do for a team.
Itâs a much-raised question in these weeks. When the margins are so small, is it more beneficial to be building momentum and resilience through games or having that limited time off to rest and recuperate?
Clearyâs Cork are engaged for a third successive weekend
2018, 1988 before that
07 was a QF
We had a coach not long after that who told us not to shave for the week before an upcoming final
That ref from Wicklow rode us something terrible in that semi-final against Tyrone.
Those psychopaths always have a chance, especially if Morgan gets to assault clifford .
But as mcconville said âif kerry canât get themselves up for thisâŚsomething somethingâ
Jesus that is fucking powerful stuff

33/1 they said it couldnât be done
