    Keep an eye out for the newborn calf who is bone dry, jumping up and running off down the field straight after being born.

    When I saw that I said this is going to be pure muck but it's turned out to be great viewing.

    Youngest lad put up a video on Instagram of his goalkeeper skills the other day. Local goalkeeper who is also the louth goalkeeper commented on it. Then the Tyrone goalkeeper commented on it too. He's going around on cloud nine since. Amazing what a bit of encouragement can do.

    Encouragement is the best form of coaching.

    You're welcome.

    I hope no one thinks I'm pushing it on anyone here, but it's there to listen to or read about should anyone wish to.

    Jesus that school in Carlow are after casting an awful dark cloud over any decent male teachers they have.

    Yeah, really making them out to be dirty buggers.

    School asking girls not to wear leggings and tight tracksuits or take off jumpers as the male staff members are finding it distracting.

    "shouldn't show off their female anatomy as it is distracting to female and male staff of the school"

    It's been said of that school that teachers had relationships with pupils after their debs. I don't know if it was a once off but it was put out there.

    The young women in my secondary school had to fight hard to get trousers accepted as an acceptable school uniform for themselves.
    And when you think of it skirts are sexist.
    Plus not very practical in the depts of winter.

    Aparantly the lads (or some of them) are wearing on leggings in support of the girls.

    At the end of the day if what the girls are wearing falls within the school dress code then they are fine. As for asking them not to take off their jumpers, that sounds ridiculous to me.
    Saying that adults are finding children in tight clothes distracting is very concerning. Surely the adults have the ability to be professional in their jobs. It’s possible to se someone is wearing leggings without examining them closely. I’d have concerned for any adult not capable of behaving appropriately.

    I checked the uniform policy of our own local school and it specifically says shorts and t shirt, but in winter time my daughter always wore leggings as is common and it seems to be acceptable.

    O Neil's tracksuit bottoms, school polo shirt and half zip for pe here.

    Do students not protest anymore?

    Things like this occur when those in authority are allowed get away with it.
    First thing those students need to do is organise a committee and decide course of action.

    With the spot light on it now and info coming out it sounds like it's just being accepted by the students bar a few renegades.

    We are in a pandemic. I think most students are focused on their education atm, in case it gets pulled

    The principal is on morning Ireland atm.

    He's reiterating that it's a problem with just the girls as they use their PE wear as a fashion show.

    What did you think of the interview, according to the principle nothing was said about teachers feeling uncomfortable about what girls were wearing. It seems to me a story thats completely unsubstantiated and grew legs on social media over the weekend if you listened to what the principle said there this morning.

    Right, and he’s not going to talk it down even a little bit.
