By the way Mulligan is well past it now,not that we needed to be told.Hes also a filthy cunt.
Itās a pity that nasty streak has manifested itself - a sure sign that heās past it. Happens to a lot of his egotistical types. You know them as well as I do. I never had any time for in since the unfortunate beergate issue of 2013 when he insisted on draconian measures on those caught. The fact that him and his mates were boozing in Bundoran the same night was never aired strangely.
I know.That was fuckin farcical. I know from a lad on that panel that if you were going to miss a training session you didnāt ring Barney or George you rang Mulligan first,then the boys.Barney and George never stood a chance.The amount of shit he got away with today was unreal,elbows, late sliding tackles, clotheslines.Unbelieveable stuff with Sammon just looking on and waving his finger the odd time.If he was Johnny Mulligan from glenade heād have got the line by half time. Anyways itās always great bating them cunts,they can have their league win and group win it did them no good today.
By the way well done to Drumkeerin, a fantastic win today with 14 men for most of the game,theyāre defying the bookies in the last few games and finished strongly today with 3 big points late on.
Hard to bate parochial / local bitterness.

Delighted to see them beating Ballinaglera. We played Ballinaglera a few years back and their supporters are right arseholes.

Hopefully the young fella will get to see two county titles in the space of a week so!
Fenagh will be comfortable favourites Iād imagine.
AFAIK next Sunday. We should have beaten Gortletteragh in the final group match but squandered a good lead. The veteranās brother TP insisted on a substitution that had wide implications both on and off the field. Bobby OāRourke now at the helm and he isnāt, nor ever was, a fan of fannyacting and favours the more direct physical approach.
I gently introduced the phrase (borrowed from the rubby thread) ātruck and trailerā football to him the other night. He looked at me for about 20 seconds and asked me if Iād had a fall out of the hayshed or something. I laughed it off and told him the origin of the term.
He responded by saying the he had me down for lots of things but using rubby terminology was a step too far. He said he was going to buy me a half one but I could f/off with that shite. I like Bobby.

SoH will match your lads physically and in McKeown and Moran have the 2 best and most consistent club footballers in the county. Both of course are survivors of Beergate. Moran has been the outstanding figure in the county all year. I just canāt see Manor getting enough possession to turn them over but itās a final and they take on a life of their own.
If we can get enough ball into our front 6 weāll bate them,but thatās the problem. We played Paddy as a sweeper agin kinlough but heās goin to have to go to midfield with big Darren Sweeney against SOH.I listened to the match on the way home today and all of the Ballinamore county men seemed impressive tbf.
