Supposed to have been changed from Banagher to Magilligan.

Derry 0-09 Mayo 0-06

Sounds like a dour enough game. Reasonable-ish result though

Just looking at the above list and the team that started on Sunday. Why aren't more of these lads above considered for the national league and more to the point why isn't Barry Regan starting

He was injured for the Derry match afaik Bod Mor, to be honest he has a couple of niggly injuries bothering him and they have ruled him out of a few games. I'd say if he's fit he'll get a look in, he definitely deserves a chance or two given his form on the way to the county title.

apparently Mayo did not score from play in the hurling, God bless them for trying but it must be very difficult.

St Gerald's beat St Jarlath's last night in Ballinrobe in the Connacht A Colleges semi final. A great win for Geralds, who had Aidan O'Shea and Aidan Walsh from last year's minor team and backboned by 'tubber men 
Claremorris play St Mary's in the other semi. Hopefully it will be an all-Mayo final.

Has that ever happened?

Moysider and stephenite, I will come out and do 'a Barack Obama'. Ye must be right about Harte all along lads. He seemed to turn the game for us today. Am I forgiven lads??

Only if you proclaim that Johnno should stay.

Did Colman's win? They were 8-3 up at one point.

[RedandGreenSniper]

Colman's won pulling up.

Could well be the first ever all Mayo final. Jarlath's hedgemony on the comp would have ensured that I'd say.

Will be a cracking game, I'd recommend it even if ya don't know many/any of those playing.

From last year's minors Aidans O'Shea and Walsh will be playing with Gerald's and Shane Nally and John Broderick with Colman's

Aye, and Summerhill when they cared about it in times past might have shut the door on Mayo colleges completely. 24 years since a Sligo school won the A competition. Unless that lot get their act together or Attracta's get a special crop from the Curry/Tubber/Tourlestrane nurseries, then it won't end anytime soon. And then there's the old alma mater pulling out altogether thanks to the cutbacks, funny how they had enough to send a soccer team all the way to an All-Ireland B final though.

Oh is this a Mayo thread? Do carry on......

Summerhill are only playing B soccer now?

Good God no! Different school altogether. Times might be changing, but it'll never be that drastic a change.

[RedandGreenSniper]

Its an awful poor reflection of a town the size of Sligo that they don't have an A colleges football team. Think close to a thousand go to Summerhill, making it the biggest population of boys in Connacht. I've seen them play at B level and they are frighteningly disorganised and indisciplined, whilst having a lot of ability if they got their act together.
