Yes, Muns v Uls etc. omahant (USA) - Posts: 3310 - 23/01/2021 15:52:33 2328652 Link
Replying To CiarraiMick: "By my calculations the semi s would be Leinster v Connaught and Munster v Ulster." Wouldn't it be better to have open draw , all neutral venues. Dublin and Kerry are already in semis using the traditional way. Other 2 provinces? Saynothing (Tyrone) - Posts: 2368 - 23/01/2021 16:56:47 2328655 Link
Replying To Saynothing: "Why close a border within Ireland? Cases are fractionally worse in the South and have been for a while. Yes close All airports and ports except for cargo but not within Ireland." Because people are flying into Belfast and coming into the republic. Nobody should be traveling here from the UK. It's costing lives. yew_tree (Mayo) - Posts: 11678 - 23/01/2021 19:09:11 2328671 Link

Replying To Saynothing: "Enlighten us, is Dublin airport closed?" No.its not closed CiarraiMick (Dublin) - Posts: 4001 - 23/01/2021 21:29:52 2328692 Link
Replying To CiarraiMick: "No.its not closed" Didn't think so, Yew tree must be living up a tree if he thinks Belfast is the gateway into Ireland for Covid. Saynothing (Tyrone) - Posts: 2368 - 23/01/2021 22:18:39 2328694 Link
Replying To Saynothing: "Didn't think so, Yew tree must be living up a tree if he thinks Belfast is the gateway into Ireland for Covid." It was over Christmas. It's time for both governments each side of the border to put politics aside and work together. We did it for foot and mouth and now it's time again. yew_tree (Mayo) - Posts: 11678 - 23/01/2021 22:56:29 2328701 Link
Replying To yew_tree: "It was over Christmas. It's time for both governments each side of the border to put politics aside and work together. We did it for foot and mouth and now it's time again." Why didn't you say that in your first post post instead of blaming the North of Ireland. Americans kept flying into Dublin and traveling all over Ireland from the time this virus began.

Replying To Saynothing: "Didn't think so, Yew tree must be living up a tree if he thinks Belfast is the gateway into Ireland for Covid." Mícheál Martin said yesterday that he won't put a stop to EU travel unless he's told to do so by Brussels, so there are still people in and out. What this has shown everyone now is we need a united Ireland, we need to have 1 set of rules for the whole island and we need a strong government that's not FF or FG.

Replying To Saynothing: "Why didn't you say that in your first post post instead of blaming the North of Ireland. Americans kept flying into Dublin and traveling all over Ireland from the time this virus began." There's something approaching 7 million people living in the 32 counties, why are we still allowing 1 million unionists to keep this country partitioned so they can live in their gerrymandered little failed statelet and pretend they are british and democrats, It's long past time we had this border poll, Brexit and Covid makes the need for unity essential if it wasn't obvious already. There needs to be an All ireland approach to controlling Covid 19 and this may not be last pandemic we see, if it was an animal disease the All Ireland approach would have there from the start. It's time politicians started leading instead of clowning about like headless chickens. Tirchonaill1 (Donegal) - Posts: 3310 - 24/01/2021 14:57:18 2328747 Link
My predictions for the semi finals this year, Tyrone v Kerry and Dublin v ??? I can't call Connacht. don't know what to make of Galway and Mayo are rebuilding, maybe the Rossies will win it. Tirchonaill1 (Donegal) - Posts: 3310 - 24/01/2021 15:06:38 2328753 Link

Agree 100% the country has not been helped by having 2 so similar parties to choose between since independence. Viking66 (Wexford) - Posts: 16473 - 24/01/2021 15:11:49 2328758 Link
Replying To Saynothing: "Why didn't you say that in your first post post instead of blaming the North of Ireland.

I was not blaming the northern people...I'm blaming people who used Belfast and a point of entry. yew_tree (Mayo) - Posts: 11678 - 24/01/2021 15:12:03 2328759 Link
Replying To yew_tree: "I was not blaming the northern people...I'm blaming people who used Belfast and a point of entry." Fair point, I blame people who use all airports as a point of entry including Belfast. Saynothing (Tyrone) - Posts: 2368 - 24/01/2021 17:17:02 2328780 Link

Totally agree, back when foot and mouth was causing mayhem did Paisley Snr not call all cattle on the island of Ireland Irish beef, it suited then. Unionists are desperate at the minute because Brexit has backfired on them and they are clinging on by their fingernails to their so-called British state. In other words their f---ed. Calm heads by nationalist leaders and let Jim Allister and the like shout their mouths off. Saynothing (Tyrone) - Posts: 2368 - 24/01/2021 17:26:59 2328781 Link
Replying To Viking66: "Agree 100% the country has not been helped by having 2 so similar parties to choose between since independence." They're practically the same party, would a united Ireland suit FF and FG? KingdomBoy1 (Kerry) - Posts: 14092 - 24/01/2021 18:33:44 2328790 Link
Replying To CiarraiMick: "By my calculations the semi s would be Leinster v Connaught and Munster v Ulster." Yes that's right. endgame (Roscommon) - Posts: 2504 - 24/01/2021 18:59:09 2328796 Link

Has to be between Donegal and Tyrone for Ulster, only the bounce of a ball between them. Connacht any of the big 3. Saynothing (Tyrone) - Posts: 2368 - 24/01/2021 19:05:11 2328797 Link
Replying To Saynothing: "Has to be between Donegal and Tyrone for Ulster, only the bounce of a ball between them. Connacht any of the big 3." Are we going back to the backdoor system this year or is it straight knockout again? KingdomBoy1 (Kerry) - Posts: 14092 - 24/01/2021 21:33:20 2328825 Link
Replying To KingdomBoy1: "Are we going back to the backdoor system this year or is it straight knockout again?" Backdoor system would suit if they stick to provincials but don't think it's needed if they go open draw. Saynothing (Tyrone) - Posts: 2368 - 24/01/2021 22:45:40 2328832 Link
