DCU v Louth final

Well its nice to see the natural order of things returned with the big two in the O'Byrne Cup final! Here was me expecting to see a no-holds barred Kildare-Meath final when up pop the students to do what their parent county couldn;t do - beat Meath in Navan. And then the Wee Men - with the help of a goalkeeping clanger - put Geezer's men to the sword!

In the shield - or is it plate? You have Carlow v Wexford ....... An horrendous colour clash here. I fear these two may be peaking too early!

Someone told me last night that Meath-DCU in hurling was played in Ashbourne - no double header. I also heard that Kildare-Louth hurling was played elsewhere. No double headers!!! Are the GAA f***ing mad?

That'd be like watching in 3D only without the glasses!

It'd be like watching an explosion in a paint factory!!!

At least we are IN a FINAL.
On another note we have now won 300 percent more games than last year

True Jim - fair play to ye! I'd say tickets are as scarce as hen's teeth though ...

Jeeze Old - a mate told me he had tickets for the game in Croker on Saturday at 2.30. I presumed it was the Wexford v Dublin semi but as it turns out it is the rugby game v Italy - bah!
