I’m fairly sure they’re all dead
They’re back:clap:
Bring on Kerry ta fuck
Huge work being done with the development squads, this is just the tip of the iceberg. Kilkenny have finally taken football seriously.
They will face a far sterner test next week against Lancashire. Could be wrong but I think there are only 4 Gaelic Football teams in Hertfordhsire. Two in Reading and 2 in Watford, there might be a fifth in Cambridge since last year
Lancashire will pummell them next week.
massive work alright, huge work. I suppose serious would have to depend on the definition of what you would consider serious.
They’ve bought footballs. A seismic step forward.
Remind me of the legend about a hurling club in Laois holding an “EGM” once when 3 of their hurlers got injured in a Junior Football match. The Chairman pulled an O’Neills football up onto the table, produced a knife, drove said knife into said football and called the meeting to a halt.
I’ve always hoped it was true.

Heard various versions of that one. It’s supposed to have definitely happened in Newtownshandrum. A Cork poster might verify.
Who is funding these trips over and back to the UK?
Central Coucil would be giveing them a grant for a good proportion of it I would assume
some of the selection policies they have for that team that went over to England are pretty good. players asked to go play in this championship game included lads that have been in Australia for the last 6 months.
The step up to international football was probably a step to far at this stage of the team’s development.

HATS OFF TO whoever runs the Facebook page for Tullogher Rosbercon.
The Kilkenny side published thisexcellent report of a recent junior football win over Muckalee. Check it out:
“The Junior Footballers started the year with a hard fought victory over Muckalee last Sunday in front of an attendance of 2 umpires, 2 linesmens and 5 supporters. Only 13 players arrived in Muckalee so evergreen selector Basil Glennon and past his sell by date selector Owen Kenny togged out and made the match day 15.
Tullogher were in control and cruising and leading by 0-5 to 0-1 shortly before the break when they decided to hit the self destruct button. Johnny Barron who was suffering from exhaustion after a run from centre back to corner back (he never done that for the hurlers) fell over in the corner and took his man down with him. From the resultant free the ball was floating into the Tullogher goalkeepers hands when he was distracted by a Zetor and the ball ended up in the back of the net. At half time there was no sign of the manager so 10 year old Danny Glennon took the reins and made a few tactical changes.
Tullogher went 3 points up early in the second half and again looked to be cruising when the replacement goalkeeper was distracted by a John Deere and the ball ended up in the Tullogher net again. Luckily, Conor Hennessey decided to take the game by the scruff of the neck and show the “auld” lads how it was done and scored a goal to put Tullogher 3 points up. Tullogher then reverted to a defensive strategy and proceeded to play down the clock by pulling Muckalee men down safe in the knowledge that there are no black cards in hurling counties.
Team: – Mark Malone, James Mullally, Basil Glennon, Patrick Grennan, Anthony Cottrell, John Grennan, Tarek O’Connor, Declan Grennan, Pat Hartley (0-2), Kevin Hennessey (0-2), John Barron, Eoin Ryan, Conor Hennessey (1-4), Ted Cullinane, Owen Kenny (0-1).
Manager – 10 year old Danny Glennon
Sacked Manager – Richie Dollard (picked the team and proceeded to spend the rest of the match.”

A GAA myth, there is a story like that in every county.
Does anyone know what that simple cunt Locke was trying to say here?
Its fairly simple

Sorry, silly of me not to look in my own post for his reply. This sort of undercover posting style could really take off here.
Of course he failed to observe its actually his own countymen who are making fun of him here. The guilt over his dirty night in some seedy Cork gay club is really eating away at locke lately.
