In the name of jaysus, biggest game in the county calendar tomorrow and we've a bloody rugby game going on then night before down the Páirc. @OfficialCorkGAA needs to have a serious look at themselves.

Just seeing the Barrs Dillons Junior B Hurling Championship final was decided on penalties, there's no way a final should be decided on penalties.

Just hearing about a proposed keg subsidy for pubs in the budget, following on from another proposal to gift 16 year olds a €100 culture voucher. This crowd are completely out of touch, just try and get a home care package for a loved one. #budget2026

Marching down Garvaghy Road is about Unionism attempting to reassert it's supremacy, nothing more, nothing less.

Michael Moynihan Junior Minister completely out of his depth here on @SaturdayRTE, you'd despair that this is the calibre of politician serving in government.

#rteinvestigates extraordinary programme, it appears nothing has changed within the Garda hierarchy. The 2022 Protected Disclosures Act doesn't appear to be worth the paper it's written on within that organization, the Commissioner and Minister have serious questions to answer.

Mary McAleese putting the boot in on the GAA Management Committee on RTE Radio's Inside Sport. An interesting week of claim and counter claim ahead.

To this day, I cannot understand how the world watched this scene without being moved!! More than 500 people disappeared after this strike in Gaza City, as if they were erased from existence in a single moment. History will never forget what we lived through here.

Probably the best sweet shop in the world. O’Keeffe’s shop had such a huge selection of sweets and was affectionately named “Nosey Keefe’s” as the owner was always keeping a close eye on people. jasonogorman.ie

Limerick have shutdown Monaghan and not allowing uncontested long range shots. They're comfortable and imposing their game on Galway, will be interesting to see if Galway can figure it out.

My thoughts on the hysteria about the booking trains in advance. There are 7 morning trains from Cork to Dublin, carrying under 3k passengers. With 50k supporters travelling it makes up less than 6%. It's not being cocky, it's a no brainier on a refunded ticket IF Cork get there.

echolive.ie/corknews/arid-41… "Previous project had been flawed from the beginning", with nobody being held accountable. BAM still managed to build the student accommodation, the most profitable element of the project and stick the CCC for the purchase of the Beamish Counting House.

If I was Seamus Harnedy I'd be rightly pissed off after that today.
