Killala

... of the rebellion.

Um, so yeah, so a small force, Humber arrives in Killala-

Yeah

...

Connaught of course hasn't risen at all.

Yeah.

And so they kind of see, well, all right, well, this is our opport- And actually the most tragic thing about Connaught, and certainly in Killala, is that there's a really quite good re- uh, a relationship between Catholic and Protestant in, in Killala-

Yeah, the clergy

Uh, so they won't be re-looking at the rezoning of the land.

Uh, but that's not to say that the planning process doesn't work, because two weeks ago in Killala, um, permission was refused for a data center.

I talked to Rose about that.

Oh, Killala.

So that was the Mayo Data Center.

That was decl- denied planning permission, I think, by An Coimisiún Pleanála.

And two, el-electricity constraint locally.

I think it was gonna put a lot of constraint.

talking to a couple of Ballet Hornets lads down there yesterday at halftime and they were saying as well that probably them missing out in the Neely game and going a month as well and with all that was going on probably didn't they didn't come out of it as well as they thought they might do you know so That's there as well.

But I think it's also, you see Killala won the Junior B last year, lads, and they beat Kimovi in the final.

And I think it's a great advertisement yet again for what I'm harping on about the whole time is teams down there need to take that competition seriously and try and put a cup on the table.

Because, you know, even Kimovi didn't win it last year.

Yeah.

A lot of these teams left in the junior, they've good firepower, haven't they? I think that's the biggest thing going for a lot of them.

Not sure about Killala, they've Matty Kane, but the other three teams have plenty of good players up front.

Shrew, like, in fairness to Shrew, lads, once the draw was made, there wasn't a lot of people fancying them to come out of the group because there were only two to come out.

First point, a few points to make.

One-and-a-half billion, billion, been invested in Killala, and it's been turned down.

Uh, 500 million to build it, 300 construction jobs.

Can you imagine what that would do-

Think about the road between Castlebar and Westport.

What was that, 250 million? I mean, it's crazy.

It's six times the investment into Killala, into North Mayo, where it really, really needs it.

It'd be brilliant for Ballina.

Yeah.

but ref's going to love me for this but I'm expecting a shock here I think Killala might win for that reason I'm going to go back but on the form book you'd have to say Torma Cady will win but I just think Killala have got the bodies back for the first time this year and even though again like going back to North Mayo going back to Torma Cady you don't know what they're saying because they're all talking Irish it's a big advantage but

Yeah.

Well, I'd seen Killala at the worst.

So, um, I'd say definitely it hurt down in, uh, down in, uh, Northern Gales that day.

So, uh, they seem to have bounced back well and made a few changes, a couple of lads back, whatever, and had a good win the last day.

The Times reports that a data center, which the author Sally Rooney objected to, has had its planning permission overturned on grounds that it breaches national climate policy.

The center was to be built in Killala, County Mayo, by Mayo Data Hub Limited, part of the US firm Avaya-- A- Avayo Digital.

The Mail carries an extract from a book, Swan Song, Charles Spencer's memoir about his late sister, Diana, which you may have heard about earlier in the program.

Spencer describes a row between himself and her former husband, Charles, then Prince of Wales, about the funeral arrangements for Diana, when Spencer insisted that her two young children, William and Harry, should not walk behind the coffin.

Um, he had defended the Protestant Church against Catholicism in 1641 and had recently helped Ormond to counter the covenant in sort of theological terms.

And when the See of, of Killala fell vacant in the summer of 1645, Ormond recommended him, but it didn't happen.

I'm not entirely sure why.

But in December 1646, the King, presumably on Ormond's advice, chose him instead as the new Bishop of Killaloe, allowing him to hold his existing posts, including the treasurership of Christchurch in parallel.
