    Bah, it's good fun. Sometimes I pay more attention to it than the real thing.

    I have to say I'd be worried for yee if you dont get your act together with McCarthy.. But I think Offaly will really struggle too, so I'd say Offaly will go back down.

    And yeh but he only stayed on by around 18 votes I think? Thats not great.. Tbh I think if they cant get the backing of players yee're in a right muck of things coz it will end up you playing with mainly intermediate/underage or Justin will have to walk. I'd feel bad if he had to leave another county again, I really think he could have brought Limerick up!!

    just read a yoke that daysha posted in the gaa forum. 4 more hurlers left the limerick hurling panel including gavin o mahoney. I'm seriously in a pissed off mood now :( Theres like 6 remaining players left now including dave breen and paul browne.
    God is punishing me for something I did, that's probably why all this is happening..

    That doesn't sound terribly good for Limerick. What exactly is going on there?

    Just joined the Fantasy Football league also. :)

    Well to summarise it, mccarthy dropped 12 hurlers (many of which were respected experienced ones that still had a few championships in them like stephen lucey) from the panel in search for new blood. The other members of the panel don't seem to be happy with this and are withdrawing their services from the county team.

    And then there was 6...

    That sounds like a right mess, worse than Clare's problem a few months ago!

    Also, really looking forward to Leeds - Man Utd tomorrow, the classic!

    They were unlucky not to score more. Snograss' freekick was so close, as was Beckford's attempt which beat the keeper before going the wrong side of the post!

    Rooney was woeful, Brown should've gone off, Valenica's the only United player who played at all. Every single Leeds player gave their all though. This is why I love The FA Cup, even if it's not considered cool anymore!

    I was biting my nails constantly for the added time. The goalmouth scramble could have went either way! I was estatic where they got it out of the box after it:D

    Score? At home tonight so don't have the channel. I hope whitlock wins but I think Taylor will annihilate him by the end...

    :(

    We were complete and utter shit today. Fabio being the only one who really had a decent game.

    Have to give it to Leeds, they deserved it. We never really threatened the goal until late on.

    Leeds support was fantastic, as was United's, until the goal.

    Special mention to the police for handling the day so well, because as far as I know, the wasn't any trouble.

    EDIT: May as well throw up a pic while I'm here.

    OT about an hour before kick-off:

    I thought you were a Leeds fan and would be ecstatic! Whoops! :confused:

    Phil Taylor won the darts 7-3 in the end, exciting stuff though, the final leg of the ninth set was hilarious, they were both going for double 1 for ages!

    ;_; It was not pleasant, I have to say. There's some teams that it's absolutely sickening to lose to aswell, Leeds of course being one of 'em. :( Hopefully that'll make them cop on and finally start playing some proper football this season, but I've said that after every messy performance and it only seems to last a game or two. That being said, they do tend to perform better after Christmas so I can remain hopeful!
