Pity the young one didn't say to Marty "go away from me you creep" when he went kissing her

Who were you playing Michael Dara?

Aidan wasn't much of a footballer, but a great dancer...

And it was really obvious going in for the kiss with a good looking girl at least 40 years younger.

He didn't kiss Gavin White's sister and mam. 20-30 years ago he was always hanging around camogie all ireland receptions with girls late teens, early 20s. I always felt him a little creepy.

He's been outdone on the cool stakes by MDMA and he knows it too!

Say Your Number

I remember Dublin fans singing Crazy World in Breffni Park the week after he died.

RTE's idea of great atmosphere is getting people in a clubhouse to roar 'Up the Dubs!!' or 'Up Kerry!!'.

That sums up a lot of Up For the Match for over 30 years.

Montage of Feck

Will somebody give them socks!

Magic Midget

Michael Dara is going to be arrested... for stealing Julian Benson's clothes.

Magic Midget

Anna Geary is one of Noel Kelly's talent..we're not worthy!

Magic Midget

More 'great atmosphere'.

Now back to kissing Marty.

The older players, same last week, are generally being phased out. Jacko, Mikey Sheehy, Micheal O'Muircheartaigh etc. Jimmy Keveney, Cullen, Hickey.

riddles

It’s like the dancing in the caravan in Fr Ted on this program.

😂 Someone shout 'will you shut up, shut up, shut up'!

Magic Midget

Like last week I didn't have one good laugh at a funny story.

I miss the characters like Joe Hayes etc.

2 bland shows.

Desperate stuff

That Dublin montage was cringe inducing.

It's always this patronising "Salt of de urtt" shoite!! Honestly you'd swear Dublin was alien to RTE rather than their primary base.

screamer

Ugh I think even viagra couldn’t help up for the match, it’s just tired old drivel

Man Vs ManUre

Florence and the machine is looking a bit rough.

riddles

the format is not helped by the fact Dublin did six in a row - kilkenny were there how often as were Kerry etc so a creative team with no creativity is on a loser from the start. There’s only so many variants of answers to the same questions. What did you do the night before a game or what’s it like to play in an all Ireland. The montage for the Angelus offers more creativity. The singing of crazy world at the end summed it up , an awkward pause and dead air as the credits rolled and the two singers looking around for an exit to dash too.

That's it Derry v Cork 1993 brought different guests and novelty. Armagh 2002, Down 1991 etc. Mayo, Dublin, Kerry and to a lesser extent Tyrone have been the main teams in finals for 20 years.

Hurling Tipp, Kk, Limerick. Hurling Antrim 1989, Waterford 2008 brought a bit of novelty. Offaly.. When the Kilkenny 2000s team were winning I heard Christy Heffernan's story about flaking a striper with a hurl across the arse about 5 times.
