Why not watch on bbc

 

Never realised it was on there.

That's a travesty that result.

Horrendous football.

 

All the Ulster games covered by RTE are also live on BBC2. I always watch on the BBC. The commentators at least have a good knowledge of Ulster football

The qualifiers are a real mine field now with May, Tyrone and Monaghan. If they don't draw one another i can see all 3 making the last 8.

 

That's some decision in the hurling

 

A Munster final against Cork will provide a sterner test but Ó Sé is hopeful a bright summer lies ahead.

The Super 8s format, should they get there, will give Eamonn Fitzmaurice's charges more time to gel, and potentially peak at the perfect time.

"Kerry people in general are frustrated that the ball doesn't go in quick enough," Ó Sé added.

"They have the players, they have the youth, they have pace. That's why I'd be excited about it.

"The Championship is set up for them. They're going to face a tougher Cork side next, then they go into the Super 8s. It's set up in a way that this team needs bedding. They're not the finished article."


The media should try to interview people who don't change their opinions within the space of a couple of sentences.

 

Great end to normal time. Looked like 2 terrible decisions at the end would cost Tyrone the game

 

* the GAA and * the Gardai and * every other * who supported or stood by and watched the Tyrone lad get arrested for flying the flag of Palestine.

Armagh away to Sligo.
Could have been worse for Armagh.

 

Hoping Cork finally beat Kerry today.

 

Big time. Massive ask though.

 

Hopefully the Ulster teams give us a decent provincial final tomorrow.

 

Taking my sons to Clones today for the ulster final, I normally stay away from ulster finals as I have a 0% record attending them. I have been to 5 and lost 5. But I’m praying that this is the end of my bad luck. My mates are trying to convince me to stay at home

 

Arlene Foster to attend today's Ulster Final.

I wonder will she be in her seat in time for amhran na bhfiann.

 

I * hate that she's clinging onto Fermanagh's success tbh. Plenty giving it the old 'it's great to see, a sign of the times' etc. She can get so far to *.

The DUP have slowly come around to realise they are the * of every joke with their backward archaic views. Brexit has exposed them as the dinosaurs they are to the whole of the UK.

Attending the Ulster final today coupled with her announcing she's attending an LGBT festival this summer is all part of her new PR approach as they try to claw back some of the support and credibility they've lost in the last 24 months. The door should be slammed in her face.

 

An Ulster Unionist MLA has hit out at what she described as "latent intimidation" in Fermanagh over the GAA team's progress in the Ulster Championships.


On Sunday the Ernemen will take on Donegal in Clones for the showdown which could see them lift the Anglo-Celt Cup for the first time.

• However, MLA Rosemary Barton has said the prospect of the victory has led to some feeling under pressure and "deeply uncomfortable" when the subject was raised in the workplace with them not reporting the matter for "fear of reprisals".

She asked passionate GAA supporters to "respect their friends and work colleagues" as they may not have the same interest in the organisation and "their actions can leave their work colleagues feeling apprehensive".

"I’m disappointed to have been told by some people in Fermanagh that they are being subject to latent intimidation by the County GAA team supporters," she said.

"While I appreciate the progress the team have made, many workers from a unionist background in both public employment organisations and private firms feel a huge pressure from their work colleagues who continually talk about the GAA team and make references to their unionist associates, which makes them feel deeply uncomfortable.

"The staff will not report these incidents as they are concerned of reprisals.

"I would ask all those passionate GAA supporters to respect their friends and colleagues who may not have the same interest in the organisation and where their actions can leave those work colleagues feeling apprehensive."

 

Arlene Foster. Vomit.

 

Specky puke 2 rows behind her.

 

Sing up you aul *

 

She loves the anthem.
