Be surprised if either gets through, but Bayern and Dortmund have been brilliant and made the semi-finals seriously fun.

Ewan MacKenna And on the same day as the latest carbon tax kicks in my neighbours and I receive our first election literature from *drum roll* yes, you guessed right Fine Gael 🤦‍♂️ Anyone think what day this is in FG HQ?

Don't for a second think these people have standards or morals, no matter what side of the aisle.

They all have allies and enemies which are the result of who will make them money and keep them in power, and who might not.

In the middle of a brutal cost of living crisis, in a cold and wet country, the Irish government solution? Flat tax the bejaysus out of people wanting not to get ill. Time for serious change folks, and people who would reverse this nonsense and make life livable again.

I disagree hugely with Varadkar on so much. But what good does this do to anyone? He gets abused so two idiots can actually harm some cause they want to push.

Maybe I'm slow, but why would Hamas agree to a truce when Israel are going to attack anyway? That isn't really a truce.

It's all very badly broken.

While farmers get less and less for their food, the consumer is paying more and more for that food.

I love how Joe Biden's people are so in touch they thought it would be hip to get on Howard Stern. About 15 years after Howard Stern became hated by nearly everyone as a vile bully that represented nothing but himself and was pure capitalist greed.

Hope folk realise importance of EU vote because if it's traditional parties, we will get:
1. Creeping authoritarianism.
2. Expansion - big reduction in standard of living.
3. Militarisation.
4. Qualified majority voting - Ireland loses sovereignty/choice from tax to neutrality.

Can anyone please explain Roberto De Zerbi to me? Did it become some self-perpetuating circle jerk where everyone had to go further than the previous in showing how hipster they are in bigging him up? He's ok. That's it.

This encapsulates Kildare. I'm fed up of mediocrity and feelings and being nice. At what point does one of these lads think, maybe three is enough to manage a Louth half forward rather than charge up to do nothing. They are the single most brain-dead team I've ever seen play GAA.

Rubbish. No intensity in defence or around breaking ball. Get Dan Flynn frustrates, because ceiling so high, but at least he is trying. Don't get hype over Darragh Kirwan. Never seen it. Anyway, a sick dog being put down, just wish Louth wouldn't be so cruel in slowness.

I'm convinced that only in Ireland could an opposition party rise despite their own bloodbath history, and be accepted for it, hit record highs in votes, and yet against the most despised government in history for four years utterly mess up everything and fall away. How? How?

When was the last time Dublin was the first game in a double header? As if they are ones who need time to travel. Genuine question. I've been looking and not sure it has happened. Today a genuinely competitive game between Kildare and Louth with big consequences is the Go Game.

Children in agony beyond belief, who cannot get surgery to ease, suffering, and Simon Harris TD uses it as opportunity not to apologise, but to play politics and blame those never in government. He's one more blue shirt. Another vile man that should never be let near power again.

He thinks the Social Democrats are new and left 🤣🤣🤣 Bless. They are just the latest repackaging and reselling of more of the same.

The intellectual capacity and the be kind of the new left. They're only going to get worse. Don't ever give an inch.
