Shur look it, Laois donāt fear Carlow. Iād be disappointed to lose to them.
You could tell as soon as he caught that mark - he really wished he hadnāt.
Rabbit in the headlights stuff. The awkward body language said it all. Turning away from the goal, hoping someone would make themselves available for the easy pass. Before the cruel realisation that heād have to kick it himself, with predictable consequences. An awful kick that he was never nailing.
Not often you get to say that
Incidentally Carlow have never beaten Laois in the league and I reckon only once in my lifetime, an O Byrne Cup game in 1988, we went home quiet that day. Carlow are simply the godhelpus of the GAA.
You didnāt need tonight to tell you that. You knew that 15 years ago
A man who is continually failing upwards.
That was a shocking thing to come out with. This fella was a CEO. An embarrassment how he continually manages to make a shite of things.
I think I was his first black card.
I used to hate to see him and Tyrell down to ref us. You just didnāt know what either would do.
Youād know when open the sports pages of the nationalist and read a match report that if one fella on one side had 10 points from frees and another fella had 12 you could say with 99% confidence that Tyrell was reffing it.
Few musings on Mayo v Kerry.
-Kerry should have and could have been out of sight at HT.
-Boland was unbelievable.
-Killian Burke is a big addition for Kerry.
-Midfield still a worry for kerry, Joe o Connor is not the solution.
-Sean oāSe is not an inside forward, not as good when back is facing goal.
- Mayo should have got at least a draw bar for poor game management.
-Clifford is the GOAT.
Tipped back to Tralee tonight. Enjoyable fare and open enough game. Kerry are at nothing without the Cliffords and look well off All Ireland winning form.
Itās my beloved Derryās to lose.
Not a case of when, but by how much.
Hate to askā¦are you from your beloved Derry?
My heart lies in Bellaghy.
Thats not a straight answer
McGuigan is the key. Save the cheerleader, save the world.
I reckon heās 29 at some stage this year. Around a long time but never consistently nailed down a starting spot. A very good hurler for Toreen.
I canāt ever remember Carlow beating Laois in football. Even when Carlow were going reasonably well under Turlo, Laois had the Indian sign over them with Sugrue at the helm.
Some transformation last night considering Laois were 5 down and hadnāt scored after 24 minutes. You never felt theyād lose with McNulty in charge though. If it was still Billy Sheehan then Carlow might have had a chance.
29 at the end of this year. Regularly scapegoated in previous regimes.
