Fella is commonly used in Cork in the way people would use āmateā here on TFK,
It can mean anything, I suppose if you put a comma in front of it it would be passive aggressive,

Not long before he fucked off for good.
The pitch was 70% paid for by some government scheme, I think it only cost the GAA (Croke Park/Connacht GAA) around ā¬1m, which for what it is, is a pittance. Itās certainly not a white elephant project. To cover a real grass pitch youād be talking many multiple of that.
Also I hear that grass likes the sunshine for some reason.

Thatās what you took from it 
I thought maybe it wasnāt used as commonly around the country, I donāt hear it in Limerick
The Desmond league could do with a dome, blanket call offs for the third weekend in a row
Yeah its mad how its not considered a good thing. Arguments of you dont play on astro pitches or whatever. Sure if you cant train in much and slop sure its not real at all. Never mind the fact that you can multiple team uses on a pitch that you otherwise wouldnt get at this time of year on grass pitches. ITs a great investment.
But unless you are creating real time game scenarios, not worth a fuck. Same as training on your own. Pointless. Practicing frees? fuck off for yourself. Its not real.

Logic seems to be people should be training in muck and shit in winter so theyāll be ready for the rock hard pitches in summer

If Willie Mullins has deep gallops weāll have deep pitches
Groins and hamstrings would be torn off a lad during training in the muck and dirt ā¦
no, if you go by the thread, I think there is evidence to prove 3 and 4G pitches are actually really, really shit and you are a fool if you use them

Iām going off experience , I was well washed up by the time 3G and 4G pitches came about ā¦I used to find the turning and slipping in the mud desperate for the groins .
One of my favourite things about Kevās unreal Twitter feed is when he gets involved in arguments with other S&C types over terminology/language and they take to correcting each other over semantics. It never tends to go down well on either side, as an unfailing belief youāre right about everything seems to be a prerequisite in the field. Better still if the initial tweet has referenced an obscure incident and/or low profile match to appear more learned. He was having a to and fro with a fella recently about whether something was a skill or a technique and the exchanges were getting more offhand/dismissive as they went along.
