In cricket the beurocracy and favouritism India get from icc would make Infantino and fifa blush.

Pakistan had to play home games in uae for over a decade due to Sri team bus been shot at in late 00s

India get World Cup locations moved fixtures time changed to suit them.

Wrong again flaky this poster had a dig at me last month as I criticised someone whinging about women sport on the news

Keep your predictions coming though they are always spot on.

Now India (it's a big country in Asia) have a t20 match just starting I might keep an eye on.

Replying To veterngaa:  "Kilcoo beat a team who drank for a week and then a team who Scotstown beat by more last year. Not to mention scraping over the line in down a few times. A lot of people predicting on nostalgia…. People forget this Kilcoo team have filled the togs in Ulster finals .. they have won only 2 from their 6 finals. Loss on Sunday and it's 2 from 7.

They are talked about as this unbeatable machine"
When you get 2 ulsters and an all Ireland title in the bag, then maybe you'll be in a position to accuse a team like kilcoo with all home grown talent of "filling the togs"………

No team is unbeatable, the beauty of kilcoo is the size of the place is tiny and there producing year in year out with home grown talent…

Some Pakistani cricketers can be decent hurlers too, JM.

The point stands. They are glorified as this team that has won all around them when in reality they have massively under achieved on the Ulster circuit. When they lose on Saturday it will be 3 in a row lost.

Says a supporter of a team who have filled their togs in their last 3 final appearances. 2 from 6 looks a lot better than 0 from 3.

I wonder what the US authorities will make of the comments on this forum if they get to look at them...what will their opinion be of the two pointer or the 50m dissent rule!

The 2 lads must have had the same English teacher growing up. Identical tone and style of writing.

Replying To IronSleeve:  "Nobody is relegated from the league directly. However if they finish bottom two in it they're automatically at a disadvantage because they're lowest seed in the Championship. Bottom teams in the two championship groups in a relegation playoff. One Up One Down."
Ah I get ya, so the championship will decide promotion and relegation from the league and championship, and the league will decide seedings for the championship. That's not bad at all.

I actually can't take you serious on here when you talk football, talking about filling togs in ulster finals, quite ironic… 35 years and counting…..it took a blow in to get the blues out of the county the last 3 years…and it will take the same blow in to have a stormer Sunday to get over the line…

Replying To Oddball:  "Is that a bit of a bombshell or had Higgins informed Killoe a few weeks ago that he would not be back next year?
It seems a bit out of the blue and leaving Killoe in the lurch with finding a new manager.
Is there any names being linked to them?"
Not really a bombshell, got a bigger opportunity a couple of weeks ago, can't blame him for taking it. Wish him the best with Naas. I read that he is their 5th manager in 5 years, but it hasn't done them much harm with 4 Kildare SFC's and 2 Leinster finals in that time. He will do well with them.

Nothing solid beyond wild guessing on his replacement at this point.

Loughrea to win it by at least 5 points. A tight pitch will suit the town. All the forwards Tomas's have and they strangled them. Up the town

Replying To BarneyGrant:  "[quote=Fionn:  "Looks like this is not just a Dublin GAA issue..... <i>Former Kerry and Kilmacud Crokes goalkeeper, Devon Burns, is set to join Ratoath with the goal of getting into the Meath senior panel. Robbie Brennan, the Meath manager, has reportedly asked him to make the move, and it looks like a smart step towards a future in the county team. With Ratoath's strong setup, this could be the perfect opportunity for Devon to earn a spot with Meath. Keep an eye on this he could be lining out for Meath soon! <b>https://www.irishexaminer.com/sport/gaa/arid-41462632.html</b> Head4TheBlackSpot (Meath) - Posts: 49 - 10/12/2025 12:25:00 </i>"</div>Didn't Brennan bring him into Crokes halfway through last year and dropped long time keeper Ferris? Apart from anything lese, what message does this send out to the other goalkeepers in Meath, never mind the two already on the panel! If it was me, I'd be jacking to be honest."
All this needs to be nipped in the bud, Barney..

It can snowball very quickly, and by the looks of it, we are getting to that stage...."]The Meath one is surely unsustainable? A lad from Kerry just happening to find the nearest and most suitable club to him being connected to one particular manager!

They would been like Ger having Fenton or McCarthy signing up with a Louth club so that he could out them on country team!

They have been almost since they were inaugurated as independent states following another disastrous partition by the remnants of British colonial rule. They square up periodically over Kashmir or some other flashpoint. They did before Trump, during Trump and will again long after Trump is only a memory.
