Double training sessions on Christmas Morning are the crack mate.
Christmas morning in your twenties can be shit enough so no harm in an aul training spin.
Not when its âGeezerâ bawling at you.
Odd theyâve all came to this conclusion themselves.
Group think.
Its common enough.
But youâd actually have to be part of or observe groups of humans to recognize it.

That they all decide to opt out of intercounty football because they flopped in the club Championship last two years?
Bernard Flynn is one sickening git to listen to co commentating a match.
He was doing the Lomans Moorefield match yesterday. He regularly called the efforts of club players âdisgracefulâ or âshockingâ and really went to town on the lad from Lomans who threw the ball away resulting in the free being brought forward (Moorefield eventually scored from the secondary ball from the free to win the match). Flynn said that the lad âwill never forget itâ and had âthrown the match away for his teammatesâ. Fuck sake, he is an amateur that lost the head for a second.
Of course Bernard has spoken of how St Lomans had the match won on my occasions and had to backtrack when the match was turned around. So much for his expert knowledge. Jokeshop.

Maybe because Armagh are shite or underperforming and they are not enjoying playing with them and would get more enjoyment from playing in a successful club team than getting flogged in an unsuccessful county set up that they are unhappy in?
The commitment required to play IC football is utterly off the charts . I can see more lads saying it ainât worth it .
A shame itâs just players from one club who are doing this.
This, more than anything, is what is killing Leitrim.
I wouldnât blame lads for one second for not playing.
Outside of the Top 4 in either code, hard to see why anyone would bother their holes for more than 4 years at this point.
Yes itâs a pity for the county that they canât convince their best players to play for them, certainly highlights serious issues with the county set up that should be addressed.
Not much the county can do in this regard. A disappointing reaction from Cross to their failure in the last couple of years.
Or they like being big fish in small bowl and it troubles their insecurities when togging for Armagh.
Or they have notions.
Loads of guys not playing these days because of this

Canât see the fun in that .
Did he have to get up this morning?
It was a pretty accurate assessment of his contribution, although his team mates didnât help themselves.
They did have it won, if theyâd shown any sort of composure.
They were six points up with two minutes of normal time left.
