The one complaint we have, however, is the lack of hurling and football to be found amongst its archives. The other day we found Owen Mulligan's goal against Dublin and someone has recently added the floodlights at Croker. There's also the lowlights of the international rules played to 'The Ace of Spades' but we won't go there.

However, we beg those with a vault of GAA memories, and even low wattage when it comes to computer knowledge, to stop being so greedy and share it all with the rest of us. From club to county to Effin Eddie, all is welcome.

LOOKING FOR A LEAD ON OLD KILDARE TROPHY Sideline Cuts got a call this week from a friend who was driving through the Kildare town of Rathangan. On his travels he saw a poster regarding a missing trophy. The cup in question was the Leinster Leader cup, one of the oldest in the country, presented to the winner of the county's senior football league and named after the Naas-based newspaper. Some of those we contacted suggested it was lying deep below the murky waters of the Grand Canal. Others that it may have taken pride of place on someone's mantelpiece. Many were even suggesting Gardai involvement in the near future.

But before we could start coming up with what might have happened, the trophy mysteriously reappeared late last week. If only it could talk.

FIXTURES CONGESTION GIVES US INDIGESTION Enough is enough. We understand that those coming up with GAA fixtures have to take a lot into account. There are the needs of the players. Then there are the fans who are clearly beginning to enjoy night matches. And then, despite some not liking it, there's the clash with much bigger sporting events at this time of year such as today's historic clash between France and Ireland at Croke Park. But while the GAA seems to have covered pretty much all stakeholders, it has left out one important (probably the most important) group. You've got it in one, the Sunday journalist.

Yesterday there were no fewer than seven NFL games for us to contend with, spread right across the day's hours. Why do they think we got into this job in the first place?
