if McHugh does make an apperance then i would take it that donegal are in trouble and that we are in control of the game.

They must think they are in trouble already if their manager is on the attack.

Absolutely know the difference, it was pointless the minute you brought up libel, you have demonstrated your lack of knowledge of law going down the "libel" route.
The "Libel" card is usually thrown when those don't like what they read.

I think you need to take advice from a cat mod on this one!

If he ends up playing then 1 or a combination of all the below things is true,

1. The injury was over egged (although the 2 nights in hospital makes me doubt this)
2. The GAA needs to implement a urgent and radical PED screening policy

The inference is clear. Keep digging.

Many Tickets in mayo sold ?,what will they bring roughly 25k? Supposedly Cavan alone will bring 20-25 thousand , I'd imagine Kerry 10k max, Donegal 20-25k. Should be a decent turn out of about 55-60k

That's how I read it as well, as they say if you throw enough mud it will stick. The post is thankfully not representative of mayo supporters and should be withdrawn.

They are saying 50k will be there. Will Cavan bring 25k? Would be nice to see Cavan win.

Ah here, Yop. It was a stupid thing to infer on Rawhead's part, simple as.

If the worm was turned and someone was saying it was even a possibility that the reason Andy is back is because he's on PEDs I doubt you'd be in much of a mood to take it lightly.

naughto · 31-07-2013 11:22PM

Not lost, believe me. Smiles are also given when you see the innocence of a child.

Have a check on the other thread and you may arrive in the real world.

As said already, you've dragged this topic a mile off thread.

So you think that Andy Moran is on PED's?

My mood doesn't get affected by things like that believe me, been too long on this planet for that to matter

Are you going on Sunday?

Rawhead · 31-07-2013 11:27PM

If you took my original post seriously and are offended then 1 or a combination of things is likely,
1. you are from Donegal
2. you are from Donegal
3. you have some connection to Donegal.

Either way, you can try and sound educated and intelligent by quoting libel and deformation laws all night, because at the end of the day only a sad, sad person would be offended it by it.

The real world is that there is absolutely no evidence to suggest that Mark McHugh has ever used PEDs despite what has been insinuated on this thread.

As for innocence, I know an awful lot more about the whole area of PED use in this country than you do having worked in the past for Anti Doping, which is why seeing an innocent party accused in such a glib and casual manner angers me.

Comparing a player who was out for 10 months with a cruciate ligament injury to a player who was being "talked" about starting 2 weeks after a major concussion, perforated eardrum and a 5cm tear in his quad is a reach by anyone's standard.
Compare like with like.

I might, plenty of wrongly-coloured Ballagh ladeens heading up. Usually go with the boss man and he's working on the bank holiday Monday morning and we've got the minor AIQF on the Monday afternoon to get to so it might be a bit taxing on his vintage bones.

Might be tight but I would like to see Donegal-Mayo. More than most games you'll get a far better idea of the game and the battles being at the ground because there's bound to be hundreds of off-the-ball movements and 'incidents'.

Some people seem to be worried it's going to be a grind but I think if it is it'll be the sort of grind that's fascinating to watch. It could easily be the GotY.

I've seen threads closed for a lot less, these guys are amature players who also have seperate careers and families and don't deserve this sort of tripe with nothing to back it up or no mod to stop it!!

The dump in Ballagh only takes recycling these days so you better not bring any of those rotten rhubarbs ye're so fond of or there'll be trouble.

So working in anti doping and you know about the use of or non use of PED's in the GAA? You have been on the other thread and read about what the 2 GAA stars have said about the use of drugs in GAA haven't you?
So does anti doping experience give you a background in law also?

Out of interest, would you encourage the use of any endurance supplement to someone who asked you?

No. The rubarb will be in my sandwiches for ultimate crowd clearance techniques!
I hope you aren't going to turn up in a Ros jereys to croker now on Sunday!!!!

Should be a great game, think it will be very physical now. McQ will have a tough one on his hands. Honestly wouldn't like to call it.

Sure you've no axe to grind on the Mayo thread. Touch off back to your own side boss and throw in a few more digs comparing us to English fans.
You'll have plenty of time to watch these threads for the rest of the summer.
