I dont think Ben is cut out for this thing at all.

What did he expect from such a cobbled together 15?

Is it true there is no person with senior intercounty experience in his backroom team?

664

Gerry Hussey is there.

665

Was there any disclosure as to why O Halloran left the set up

666

He said Ben O’Connor is a right cunt.

A spoofer

Probably not the best indicator for the Cork selection against Limerick that UCC beat them after that game below in the Dyke tonight.

UCC looked very disorganised with little ideas on how to find their forwards.
CIT ooth were very well drilled and seemed to outnumber UCC on a lot of occasions when the ball was there to be won tonight. Some terrific score taking in the second half in particular from them.

Limerick looked sharp last night, making it a difficult outing for a very inexperienced Cork side. Peter Casey at 11 could be tricky to handle indeed (if he stays there - still think he’s better off as the third inside forward) but he surely will never get the same space again.

Stronger team named than expected but good to see O’Connell at midfield and Buckley picked.

671

Very strong team really, and suggests that BOC probably doesn’t think there is much wrong with the personnel - he hasn’t changed the panel much anyway.

672

Also anyone know how badly injured Joyce is. And is this game on TG4 or elsewhere.

Ok from 1-9. Poor from 10-15.

My mate in Derrys relation
A Bulgarian :bulgaria: by birth was on the team of architects who designed it.
He agreed it’s a cold bleak ugly looking place,
Too much concrete.
He’d only a small input but not impressed,
His company is based in Belfast but has some tenuous link with Cork -
You’d think they’d have gone local at least?
Originally it was suggested putting a glass walkway into the crypt etc but city fathers dismissed it out of hand,
I know one man’s meat is another’s poison bus surely to fuck they could have consulted the public properly beforehand,
The big chimney looking yoke reminds me of one in a concentration camp.

Could anyone kindly fill me in on the current fitness status of Ciarán Joyce and Tim O’Mahony? Have a practical reason for asking. Thanks in advance.

Somewhat disappointed with how little has changed in terms of team/squad selection. Same old lads that haven’t been up to it repeatedly.
