Happy Christmas to all my fellow Rossie posters, and to all posters on this
excellent Gaa Board, regardless of whatever county you come from (and yes, that
also includes the Mayo posters)

Happy Christmas Shrewdness and to all the other Rossies here - even Syfín .
Also to posters from other Counties and from Co Mayo too.

Thanks lads....An issue that is exercising the minds of many Rossies this Christmas, is the scandalous government proposal to put part of South Roscommon into Co Westmeath. This will be fought tooth and nail i'd imagine. Does anyone know if there are any significant  potential Gaa implications, if this is allowed to go through.

I just haven't in me to say the same for the Rossies. The 2001 match cast a major shadow over ye.

So to everyone else on the GAABoard Happy Christmass

Is there any information available on New York trip, was thinking of travelling, is there an official trip operator?
Would appreciate any information.

[Shrewdness]

Ballagh, i think there were a few people discussing the New York trip over on the StolenSheep website a few weeks ago, before it closed down........Another challenge match for the Rossies on Tuesday evening, in Kiltoom at 6.30pm against Meath..As for the start of the FBD league, just 7 sleeps to go!!

[Rossfan]

Tonight's game v Meath rescheduled to Noon Thursday.

[Shrewdness]

Wise move considering the weather forecast.

[Shrewdness]

The Roscommon/Meath challenge refixed for Kiltoom at 12pm tomorrow has been postponed again. So it's straight to FBD action on Sunday against Sligo IT, weather permitting i suppose.

[Shrewdness]

Straightforward win today for an experimental Roscommon team..
They led 1-12 to 0-3 at half time and ran out winners by 1-20 to
0-10. They had something like ten different scorers. Was very impressed
by Conor Devaney on his return to inter county football.

Team lined up as follows.....O`Malley.....Stack Mc Dermott R Daly.....C  Daly C Cregg B Murtagh
....NDaly I Kilbride.....Devaney Kilcline Oates.......Connolly CShine C Murtagh

[giveballaghback]

Was there today shrewdness and I agree and I think Devevey is a huge addition to the panel, not even a serious training session but they seem to be moving the ball well and fast, Cathal Shine looked a little off the pace but im sure he will catch up, took the foot off the pedal a little in the second half and could have scored a few more goals but took their points, first real test is Monaghan in the Hyde in 4 weeks time.
