    At this stage you would think that the GAA would have a decent website that would give scores and results of GAA matches especially on Sunday. We have to depend on Aertel, which is awful.
    Have a look at what they are offering on the site, childish and amateur.

    I think the GAA website is a massive improvement on what it used to be. I had a look at it there now and all the results seem to be there.

    RTE Sport website is actually very good as it posts the scores live as they happen.

    Seriously, are people looking at the correct website at all? The Division 3 and 4 results are both listed.

    Well i spent 15 minutes looking for it and if i cant find it in that time then there is something seriously wrong with the layout of the sight.

    Cant see why they dont do something like score centre on sky sports.com.

    Simple and very effective.

    I still say it is a crap site, they through up the results often way after the games end. No in play scores. No scorers, no tables, no decent graphics.


    The All Ireland Final of the junior club championship was played on Saturday night, it was won by St.Mary's of Cahirciveen, I cant see the result.

    I read a report on the Junior and Intermediate football finals on the GAA website on Sunday morning.

    Maybe you need to look a bit closer rather than just expect to go on the site and expect the results to jump straight out at you. There were lots of games this weekend.

    The GAA website has massively improved in the last year.

    And the results for the Junior and Intermediate results are there, clear as the nose on your face. Try under the results for Saturday, when the game was on.

    The GAA website has improved a lot from what it was last year

    seriously, did you go onto the website, and spend 15 minutes and couldnt find the results? despite the tab only having 8 options, and one of them is news, which has roundups and latest news on the games, and another is fixtures and results, which suprisingly enough, contains results. bloody hell, if people need a ticker bar at the bottom to get results then i despair!

    Give me a sky sports style score centre anyday.

    No this weekend results, weekday results, recent results, blooody hell.

    Give me national league round 1 results Simple as!

    Its pretty awful site and needs a manual to get around it.

    Their results are done chronologically, according to when the games took place. How could it be any simpler?

    Seriously man, I am all for having a go when it is deserved, but you've got to be joking on this one.

    The new site even has a results search facility which is really handy.

    The new GAA website is a vast improvment on the old one. The results are very easy to find on it.

    If your looking for fast GAA score updates http://www.sportsnewsireland.com is very good, It even does the Fitzgibbon and Sigerson cup livescore updates.

    Hill16.ie website updates all juvenile games and league tables e.t.c...as they are sent in by text. Games played on sat afternoon are on the website that evening if sent in correctly. I know this is just Dublin clubs but im sure other county boards can do the same or GAA HQ...maybe they are ?
