    sorry for the Bearla but it would take me an hour to write this as gaeilge.
    I need to make a banner for some visitors to a sporting event ,it will be in Bearla , Spáinnis agus Gaeilge .

    I have no problem with the first two but need to make sure that the Irish is correct . It should read : Rivals for ninety minutes , Friends for life.


    any help will be greatly appreciated

    buíochas roimh ré
    is mise Gearoid

    Hmmm, either:

    iomaíocht ar feadh nócha nóiméid, cairde don saol (rivalry for.....)

    namhaid do nócha nóiméid, cairde don saol (enemies for....)

    Maybe wait for someone to check the grammer

    I'd change iomaíocht (rivalry) to iomaitheoirí (rivals), and nóiméid to nóiméad (singular noun used after number). I think they'd be fine then.

    An alternative suggestion would be:
    Nócha nóiméad mar iomaitheoirí, (ach) cairde go deo.
