An opinion backed by fact would be more valid than a baseless one.

An opinion framed in proportion is more valid than one that is OTT.

I could give examples if you really need but I’m sure you get the point that the line “It’s my opinion and I’m as entitled to mine as you are to yours” doesn’t explain anything or achieve equivalence between the 2 opinions
We aren’t talking about anything important here. No persons opinion is more valid than any others. In this case

Seeing as how it has been reactivated by the posts above, I've changed the title of this thread so we can use it for the upcoming Ulster Senior Football Championship and our game on 16th May 2020.

All other games in the ulster championship can also be discussed here.

Ulster final won’t be in Clones this year.

If current restrictions are maintained, we’ll have the situation where there’ll be fans in Derry but not in Ballybofey.

My money is on the Ulster final being in the North then.

Probably a good chance of it being in Armagh

Ulster Final in Breffni Park Cavan maybe
Unless the thugs...............sorry of course I meant the despicable back hander receiving corrupt bunch of muppets in charge of the self serving decisions, make a self serving decision to line their pockets with cash from the poor and downtrodden supporters and allow more numbers in to the grounds, then that definitely won't happen. I'm already having a big enough problem considering spending any more money within the GAA as it is, after they've again found a way to show nordies what they think of us with the muck up of the national draw. I'd 100% advocate refusing to participate if they come up with a hair brained scheme to replace it. Quoting the gaming and gambling regs in the north doesn't cut it with me. It's exactly what their DUP friends want! I wondered why Snarlene (yes mrs/mr @ShiftYa) went to Clones. Seems it was all about closing the auld fundraiser down, so Ian Og could run his without competition. He even managed to mess that up!!
