    defo not that golf course in tolka, a bloody disgrace, the media go on about flancare but tolka is a mess, holes full of sand all over the place
    Ignore Max Power, he is no more, the future is Ron Burgundy. I'd love to be Ron Burgundy but they won't let me........

    Unquestionably Whitehall last season. One thing it had going for it, at least. The pitch was superb.

    It was John Hyland park where St. Francis used to play ? if so then that was great .... never walked on it but you could tell by looking at it. Snooker table.
    The SFAI are the governing body for grassroots football in Ireland, not the FAI. Its success or the lack of is all down to them.

    Brandywell used to be decent but has really gone downhill in the last 18 months/2 years

    Two reasons

    The Council dispensed with the full time groundsman who tended the pitch and therefore the condition of the surface has suffered

    As it is a council facility, there are a number of junior football games played on it all through the winter, therefore the pitch ahs not chance to recover between seasons

    Thought Flancare was immaculate when we played there a few weeks back
    Tifo poles, sausage rolls and a few goals.

    Belfield's usually very good too.

    Worst I've seen this season are Harps and Kildare. Longford wasn't up to much last season with the sand and the many postponements.

    In our player profiles most players said Baldonnell had the best surface
