Lads doing the on the whistle reports for the Bayern v PSG game, get to experience what it’s like to do a good hurling game tonight.

Our film/documentary charting Crossmolina's epic journey to the 2001 All-Ireland senior title. It truly is an epic production, and we're so proud of it. I'm very proud of all the team at @themayonews especially @DavidRischke #forourclub #themayonews #Crossmolina #thetoughest

@m_brosnan Can the hooter be changed before Championship? As it’s not an official rule as far as I know.

What good is a black card when there is no final play? Just foul constantly to see it out. A bad weekend for an absurd rule change x.com/m_brosnan/stat…

The pull down at the end, prime example of the hooter ending the game being a bad idea. But also why did it take Cork so long to foul Meath - was always going to be their best chance of getting the call back from a restart #gaa

It starts again #mayogaa

Music can be just amazing sometimes, a fleeting thought sends you to go listen to an album you haven’t thought of in years and it’s just as good if not better than you remembered

@anspailpin @CiaranMcMonagle We’d all seen the original before and had no need for a Christmas themed reboot .

@ColmGannon @CiaranMcMonagle Absent the occasion, there was a certain amount of deja-vu about the actual game, in fairness.

This day five years ago, the Covid All Ireland Final - what surreal occasion.

The death of a local paper is such a sad thing . They tell our history from the most mundane events to most significant, and all in the one place. We won’t know what we had till it’s gone. @MalachyClerkin nails why they matter perfectly

We used to be a country that made stuff that lasted.

@MickFoley76 @GAAOverTheBar @officialgaa @MayoGAA @Galway_GAA Ah Michael, can you not let us be - you’d think Ciaran would know better.

NEW @GAAOverTheBar EPISODE ALERT 📣📣. A trip to 1925 and the maddest @officialgaa football cship ever to explain how @MayoGAA and @Galway_GAA were both crowned All-Ireland champions in the one competition, and who kept the title. Listen at: https:// linktr.ee/overthebarpod

Really great read this series from @AlanEnglish9 Mad to look back on such a wild time in local newspaper industry, and the fall out of it all, especially for those of us who worked in it at the time.

Alf’s been deferred again today #coybig What an ending

@kieranomalley1 When you’ve to google what the company do, you know they’re providing services you’ll never need.

Really hope Wealth Management Company Quilter get business from this sponsorship 💚 #ThePeoplesGame

Really enjoying this pod, no better men that @MickFoley76 and Ciaran O'Hara - to take you down the twists and turns of GAA history.

@pat_nolan Best of luck in the future Pat, always enjoyed your work and was a pleasure to share the press box with you down the years. It’s not that bad on the far side.

I finished in the Mirror this week after a long run. A lot of brilliant memories and experiences, but it’s time to move on. Thanks to everyone who took a call over the years. This is my last piece. irishmirror.ie/sport/sport-op…

@anspailpin Must be the greatest job in the world, getting to sift through those archives and put together shows like that - you’d end up down some rabbit hole.

BBC4 are showing one of those random music clip shows from their enormous archive and it's fantastic. John Martyn singing Sweet Little Mystery, Glynis Johns singing Send in the Clowns - that sort of stuff. More Old Grey Whistle Test than TOTP, but no less excellent for that.

@KCsixtyseven Great piece Kieran , it all rings so true. Best of luck in the next step and most importantly in health.

Final piece from my old job. How to lose friends and influence nobody. Click on pic to read. irishmirror.ie/sport/sport-op…

Really enjoyed being part of the @MayoGAATV coverage during this years @MayoGAA championships. Games have been great, clubs brilliant and the team top class.
