Replying To monaghanmad4567: "listen to GB on off the ball youtube there. Really honest insight into his ways and how he was treated.
All roads leading to say that Malacy O Rourke will return to Monagan now and Paudie Joyce will go to Tyrone. Come back to this comment when it happens.
HERE WE GO O ROURKE TO MONAGHAN!" In fairness not sure what complaints GB could have after the Louth game ... a game that should have been there for the taking and despite all, I don't think he really brought Monaghan on during his tenure. He's managed some high profile teams up here in Dublin & I could say the same. I think Monaghan would have put a better fight up to Mayo and who knows, got to a final.

Replying To Leitrim2024: "Predictions for this weekend
Player availability and injuries have had the biggest impact on teams this year. The rock-hard pitches have contributed towards a hugh amount of knee and ankle injuries.
Senior
Allen Gaels v Aughawillian
Both teams have been unlucky with injuries. I think Allen Gaels should be too strong and will book their place in the quarter-final.
Allen Gaels by 5
Fenagh v Ballinamore
Defence wins games and forwards decide by how much. For that reason, I'll give Ballinamore the nod, but it will be tight.
Ballinamore by 1
Mohill v Manorhamilton
Both teams are close to full strength. Mohill has been very dependent on Keith Beirne for scores. It would be great for the championship if Manor could sneak this, but I think Mohill will steal this. Manorhamilton's better scoring difference over the 3 teams below them might be enough to see them scrape into the quarter-final.
Mohill by 3
St Mary's v Leitrim Gaels
Will Leitrim Gaels rest some of their walking wounded? It's a must win for Mary's, or they will face a 2nd relegation final in a row.
Mary's necessity for victory might swing it.

Relegation Final
Aughawillian v Fenagh
Junior A
The fact that senior teams Mohill, Ballinamore and St Mary's are playing Saturday, will be a factor with player availability.
Glenfarne v Cloone
Huge game for both clubs. The loser could end up facing a relegation final.
Home advantage might be enough.
Glenfarne by 2
Aughnasheelin v St Mary's B
St Mary's looks to be the strongest of the second teams, but Aughnasheelin should edge it.
Aughnasheelin by 3
Ballinaglera v Ballinamore B
Ballinaglera was shocked last week by Cloone. It won't happen this week.
Ballinaglera by 5
Eslin v Mohill B
This could be a classic. Eslin might edge this, but it won't be easy. Eslin will have targeted this game. As the 1982 Offaly manager Eugene McGee said, "There's Eslin men in that dressing room who haven't had a pint since last Wednesday," Eslin by half a point." When did Eugene McGee say that? I thought he was talking about his Offaly team?

Replying To sillymoocow: "This is not good enough and questions would need to be asked WHO in the County Board elected Castleconner with the Venue.
As previously mentioned, a local Derby played in Kent Park or even Connoly Park would draw a good crowd and atmosphere.
To drag both teams all the way to Castleconner to a venue I personally don't like and when you include the wind factor is complete nonsense." Any update on who nominated Castleconner as the venue for this north Derby?
These people need to be called out for this ridiculous decision.
Common Sense has to take over

Last weekend of round robin games. I'm still not in favour of the quarter finals. A team could lose 2 games and still qualify for the knockout phase. That doesn't sit well with me. It devalues the championship.
There is only one meaningful game in the senior championship this weekend. 3 of the 4 relegation spots are already known. 4 of the 6 teams who will play knockout football is also known.
Coolera and Molaise will play each other in a pedestrian game away from everyone over on the west coast. And wait for it. Sligo Gaa will live stream it.
Also we have a rejuvenated Easkey playing Coolaney Mullinabreena in that side of the draw with both of them already in relegation.
Tourlestrane will easily account for Tubber leaving only one important game.
Harp's v St. Mary's.
The experience of Tourlestrane stood tall when they play Eastern Harp's.
I expect Mary's will also use their experience to down the Harp's.
In the intermediate the Bunnies will want to keep their unbeaten record intact so I expect they will beat Pat's.
Castleconnor seems to be able to put up big scores whereas their opponents Geevagh have struggled in the scoring so I go for Castleconnor.
A handy win for Ballymote over Cloonacool and Calry should beat Enniscrone.
Wins for Michaels, Johns, Molaise and Owenmore Gaels in the junior
