Folks,
Anybody know how to watch GAA beo on an android? I cant find TG4 player app for Android and my Sky Go won't play TG4 stuff. It is not on RTE player. Am I missing something obvious? Could watch it on the browser as last resort but not great quality. Its likely I will be away for the Leinster Club final and I can't miss this (will be in transit so TV not an option)

Well done Christine, an excellent addition to the county set up.
Best of luck this week end to her own club this week end.
Would be great to end the year on a high for Kildare football

Fair play to her. She always was on the ball with the Moores too in fairness.
Nowadays the role of the PRO is far more important that is given credit for.

Course she is always on the ball. Its her club. She has done a good job so far but there is plenty to do imo. I do have faith in her that she will continue to get things right.

I knew she was Moorefield PRO and it was her club. Just noting that she was one of the best around for them too.
Some good people really making good jobs with the clubs like BME, JTB to name but two.

Not sure what the thoughts are on the CPA here but this is very good:

http://www.irishnews.com/sport/gaafootball/2017/12/05/news/cpa-motions-could-change-the-face-of-gaa-democracy-1202767/

Key line here
"The players want the whole thing to be fixed to their satisfaction, but they want someone else to fix it."

Now I am all for the CPA but just wondering if they are on the radar in any clubs here? Genuinely wondering has there been any chatter in your club about the group?

Putting April aside from clubs only is just nonsense in my opinion – Mayo already booked a weeklong training camp!!

Are you Wooly in disguise? Very Happy

Sure the training ban and all that was always ignored. The one thing the CPA has is sheer weight of numbers but they need to harness it.
As I was asking are they present in many Kildare clubs?

No idea, seems to keep a low profile. Reading the locals this week and the finances are very healthy. We can actually put aside €200,000 gor St.Conleths upgrade. On the negative side if you can call it that but looking at the process to complete the upgrade I find it hard to believe that it will be carried right through. If I was to bet on it I would suggest the changing rooms will get done and it will be left at that. Too many unkowns as regards funding.

We live in hope that one day we have a county grounds that young lads dream of playing in.

The county ground situation, I know it's a complicated back story, but the mind boggles...

Laois in 2018 - Division 4, now officially a football backwater, excellent county ground.

Kildare in 2018 - Division 1, potentially a coming force in football, county ground a Soviet-style dystopian nightmare.

HG your being unfair on Soviet architecture there. Conleths wouldnt look out of place in the congo

Finances have improved but nobody has mentioned the ASTRONOMICAL increase in team expenses. Not one question at AGM.

What are the figures Botch?

Also out of the county I see Mayo's Donal Vaughan has moved 25 mins down the road from his home club Ballinrobe (who have just been put down to IFC) and moved to county champs Castlebar.
That must be some sickener for his #oneclub #clubisfamily , etc etc

Here lads (& ladies) Mull over these figures over your turkey and see what we’re up against. Staggering really. A main sponsor and 12 commercial partnerships netting a cool €1.4m. We really are playing catch up on a shoe string.
