Trying to build up my #gaa network and want to include #speirgorm #blueaky users in our GAA chat on mastodon.ie. If you follow @ap.brid.gy it will bridge the two networks and you can follow Mastodon users!!

It was a planning permission thing, the original plan was a fully enclosed statium with the top stand over the train tracks... But the last stand permission was refused!

Another good day's football on the telly. Two surprise results and a real statement win for Kerry. They were brilliant in that second half.
It's still wide open though.

Big changes coming for Dublin now as Dessie Farrell confirms his resignation. Owes Dublin nothing whatsoever and did very well. You'd have to imagine its the last we'll see of a few big names. I think even I'll be gutted if Cluxton finally steps away #GAA

Dessie Farrell has stepped down as Dublin team manager. 6 years is a fair stint. Won 2 All-Irelands.
Will be interesting to see who takes over. Aside from Ger Brennan I don't know if there are any obvious candidates.

They really do need to win it to build a base and drive on.... Like Meath have done!

Ahh totally! And in fairness, been a good year for football too... Very open all round and Kildare have had a good hurling year too!!

Well that answers that!!

Dave R @davercade.bsky.social · Jun 21

As far as I know they do, I'm a hurling fan and it was an emotional watch but it seemed most others were drained after that game !!

I told my lads this morning to wait until the footballers came out to see the difference in atmosphere... I was very wrong! Second game was so boring by comparison and the atmosphere was cat..... That said delighted with both results naturally!

There are tears streaming down my face. That was epic, heroic. With 14 men for 3/4 of the game. What a performance. Heroes one and all.

This is the greatest non-handshake since Wayne Bridges / John Terry (though Doug Emhoff came close with Bruce Fischer).

That’s what happens when you side with dictators against your allies.

Macron shook one hand.
