@HeslinDarragh He's only having a bit of banter, Roscommon deserved the win.
Also he's doing the climb for Mayo Mental Health Association so he's no clown.
Enjoy the win
Les Battersby makes wrestling debut!
Simulation theory confirmed. 😂
71-year-old Les Battersby struts out to the full Coronation Street theme, milks the crowd like it’s last orders at the Rovers, shaking every hand he can reach, then Status Quo kicks in as he “runs” the ropes like a pensioner who just remembered he left the oven on. 🐢
Absolute glorious nonsense! 😭
Mixed news for Arsenal fans...
1. Great news that Bukayo Saka signing new five-year deal. Exceptional player, not quite at his best this season (7g, 5a), occasional injury, but elite when fit and in form. Dribbling threat, going in and outside, impressive central. Increased dead-ball expertise, only 24, plus he’s an England starter. Always wise for a club to sort a star’s future going into a tournament.
2. And... such substantial investment in the squad, reflected also in recruits last summer (almost £250m inc Zubimendi, Madueke, Gyokeres, Eze etc has to be funded). PSR. So some bad news: New £168 category A+ ticket was “strongly opposed” by Arsenal Supporters' Trust. After discussions, it's only applicable to two games a season - “specifically a potential Champions League quarter-final and semi-final”.
AST adds, “This ticket category will see general admission ticket prices range from £90 to £168, making it by far the most expensive general admission price in English football. It puts Arsenal top of a table we don’t want to win and questions how serious the club is about its commitment to being together on a journey with supporters.”
Interestingly, AST statement adds, “This pricing level follows the American/FIFA model of squeezing more and more from fans. It is perhaps significant that this change has come when Arsenal’s Boardroom has become more US-centric following three appointments (from Kroenke Sports & Entertainment) in September 2025.
“We will continue to make the case for ticket price restraint and fairness to both the new Board and Arsenal’s Executive in future meetings as we believe it is vital that the club is aware of the impact pricing has on its loyal supporter base.”
3. More bad news: Club announces 3.9% increase in General Admission season tickets and Club Level. Arsenal have strengthened squad, are doing well, have a huge fanbase so board feels it can raise prices. Additional revenue generated from ticket hikes doesn’t fully compare with the huge broadcast income from PL and UCL.
One reason why TV pays so much is for the atmosphere that fans generate. Pricing some fans out and frustrating others with more hikes seems counter-productive. “We firmly believe that with the football sector benefitting from ever-increasing broadcast and commercial revenues it is time to stop squeezing match-going supporters so hard,” adds AST.
“We now expect both Arsenal and the Premier League to give more explanation as to why they have chosen to ignore the compelling case for a price freeze put forward by the ‘Protect the Fans, Protect the Game’ campaign.” Campaign organised league-wide by Football Supporters’ Association.
Demand for Arsenal tickets so strong that touting is a huge problem that the club is fighting hard. Arsenal point out they have identified, investigated and “banned over 17,500 memberships this season alone” for "suspicious" activity and blocked “many IP addresses linked to suspected bot activity”.
4. Good news that concessions protected, 1,000 free tickets for local fans (across the season) and no fee for using ticket transfer service on the ticket exchange.
5. Good news that Arsenal installing safe standing in parts of the Clock End Lower from next season and North Bank Lower from 27/28; 13,500 fans, including away, will have rail seats. (nb, as this question is getting asked, doesn’t increase capacity). Follows 10-year campaign by AST to introduce safe standing. Trust gives “credit to (ceo) Rich Garlick and his executive team who have recognised the importance of the issue to fans”. #AFC
So here is this absolute ball bag
@ManUtd kinda player @GNev2
Fckn going hell for leather supporting City
His commentary is deplorable - biased & self aggrandising
So now Man City 6 pts behind same as wkend
And you think they’d they were on top
Corrupt as fck
@SmallerFishGAA No issue with what happened after free but have you any comment on the awarding of the free. Two blantant fouls on Ros players that were free behand. So discouraging to regualry end up with clowns like Cawley or McNally who are incompetant at best. Two clowns with agendas
Very messy end to the Kerry game
When the free was blown there was 7 secs left but clock on TV continued on counting 5 more secs.
From when SOS kicked to Kennedy scoring i counted 6 secs.
If the referee stopped his watch when he blew the foul then he was right.
The hooter is more trouble than it's worth
If Arsenal were 14 points behind LFC and went to Anfield, played with zero attacking intent, and exited with zero shots on target... we'd have fans calling for heads and pundits calling Arteta a coward.
Instead, LFC are being praised, and the talking point is 'mean' Martinelli.
This prick @GNev2 given carte Blanche to nail Martinelli on @SkySports w/o any due process is totally wrong
Bradley’s may or may not be badly inj - hope
Incidentally- nothing to do with Gabi
He went out over line - somehow was fit enough to get back on to field.
The Solskjaer bounce was so great that he took over a team in 6th … & finished the season in 6th.
My memory is less of those 14 wins in his first 19 games in all comps & more the deeply concerning results/displays from mid March onwards.
But hey let’s revise the past
#mufc
Feel like there all big wins now
But to back up Villa performance with away to Bournemouth feels significant
5 from 5 after AV loss - Character
#Rice no words
Another big one @ home to the champions - Thursday
