@RacingPost Stop giving the English horses a stone advantage in handicaps @PodgeM2012 @padraighogan1

Cheltenham has learned nothing from last year. These starts are just unbelievable.. you don't get this many false starts at any other festival. It's like having a bet now on roulette, you might get screwed or you might not get screwed, but someone will be. #Cheltenham

Must be Pat Spillane season, this week Pat is moaning about, Captain speeches on All Ireland Final day, the split season not working (Using hurling in Louth as an example) & now the jubilee team presentations.. seems like this is Spillanes world and we are merely passengers

Jim McGuinness needs to get huge credit.. Donegal had been on their arse for last few years and in 2 seasons he has them back in an All Ireland Semi Final & Final with 2 Ulsters in the back pocket.

Extraordinary that members of Parnells went on Prime Time and put blame on the GAA for that mess.. did they have AGMs? They Elected the officers to run the show? Everyone knew it was ridiculous.. good honest people were let down but membership as a whole are primarily responsible

[Mark Bates @MarkGBates]

@rtenews headline - Armaghs luck continues 😂.... they are All Ireland Champions.. unbelievable nonsense.

[Mark Bates @MarkGBates]

The @officialgaa should make clear why Armagh & Derry was nowhere to be seen on TV tonight. 101k people listening to it on a Twitter feed. Extrodinary decision. There's multiple streaming platforms it could of been on, @RTEgaa @rte or BBC should been given free rights to show it.
