Just give me your NI number, bank details including your pin, name of your first dog and your mother's maiden name, oh and also the 16 digits and 3 digit security number on your two credit cards and that new debit card you got recently please and I'll do it here now for you. It'll be sent on to you from my new bestie in Nigeria along with some of the £38m fortune he secured for me which I think I should share with you now too, seeing as how you got me so many correct predictions lately!!

So you’ll be buying the jersies for us all this Christmas then? ;)

@cailín beag88 will save a lock of pound anyway.

I'm confused (yeah no change there). I'll be......................buying......................because I have 941 (973 now) of the £100 cards???? But I've been cutting them up to use as a great big celebration mosaic for Clann Eireann.
This is my detailed sketch of what the manager will look like:

And this is a work in progress.........

So how will these new passports affect matches?

Do I have to take a load of bills, documents and my birth certificate to the turnstile just to get in? I think I threw out my last electric bill.

So put 5,000 into croke park, a 82,000 capacity stadium, and when doing so out them all in the one stand and squeeze them in when at it.

How f#cking ludicrous is that?

Where is the logic of it?

I know but this covid stuff might sort out a few heads.

When you take a good look the supporters were all sitting tightly packed in around the middle of the Hogan.
If the fear was people being in close proximity, toilets, shops etc, why put them so tightly packed in?

Then you look at the FA cup games over the shuck and they're sold out stadiums.

Logic and logic

Ulster club and our match with themmuns at the AG , only the seated stand seemed to be open. Why not open the terraces and let folk spread out?

Yeah that makes no sense whatsoever as all the advice points to stay apart and outdoors - yes I know the seated stand is outdoor. Ah like we just mentioned - logic and the GAA don't go hand in hand.

some people on here need to get a grip, i understand pats point older people may be scared to go to football. But for us healthy folk, a common cold stopping you from going to a match is frankly a joke, i know for a fact the lurgan teams have went to football carrying alot worse infections.
Up armagh and frig covid!

@Bradley is right, should be in here.

Sorry Bro - not picking on you but it just highlights the point. That there is the problem. It always feels like the younger generation are saying "F**k you" towards the older population with testing - it takes a few minutes. I won't go into the story but seen it happening at the start of the pandemic how little the younger generation care about the older generation - it is sickening to say the least. Even with younger people, you can look perfectly healthy but have numerous underlying conditions. Doing a lateral flow test is hardly a major inconvenience and at least gives you some degree of confidence you are with others who haven't got it assuming everyone does it. This bollix about it being ok to have full stadiums as doesn't spread - look at what happened at Cheltenham at the start of it all. There is always one ars*hole who doesn't cover their mouth when coughing and it only takes one cough to the face.

I get that we have to learn to live with it but the rules no matter how ridiculous they may seem are there for a reason. It's not only for the sake of other spectators but for the players protection to. Wouldn't want to be playing Dublin with a weakened team because someone attended the game with COVID and wiped out half the team.


I agree with the up Armagh and frig COVID sentiment.
