My neighbours up the road The Neale have just beaten Ballyhaunis by one point to win the Mayo intermediate title.
Delighted for them.

Oughterard win intermediate in Galway. On penalties after extra time in the replay against Michael Breathnach.

Matthew Tierney kicked 3 last gasp equalising frees over the two games. First one to draw the first game. Second to draw the replay at the end. And the third to draw it again at the end of extra time in the replay to take it to penalties. And then he kicked the winning penalty for good measure.
Awful way to lose a county final.

Ballintubber retained the Mayo senior title.

From never winning a senior county title to now winning 5 senior county titles this decade.
Is the ref going to finally blow his whistle?... No, he's going to blow his nose

Corofin behind for pretty much the entire game save themselves with a free with the last kick of the game.

Goes to replay.

Not for the first time that's happened in a Corofin game in Galway. Tuam probably have missed their chance now.

Ballinameen win Ros JFC.
Inter Final a draw 2-10 each.
Late late equaliser for Tulsk who were 9 or 10 behind at one stage.
Davy's given us a dream to cling to
We're going to bring home the SAM

100%. Corofin will win the replay and probably comfortably

Tourlestrane won the Sligo senior final comfortably. Had an air of inevitability when they went 1-5 to 2 up after a quarter-hour. Coolera played alright in patches but bar getting it back to a goal margin in the first half never seriously looked like getting parity, and Tour finished it off strongly. The crowd for a county final was very poor too, sums up the general apathy around the county these days.

Only the second team to do four in a row in the county, they're talking of challenging for Connacht but I'd have my doubts, the standard of club football has gone seriously downhill over the last ten years, just as the fortunes of the county team have done too. We had two Connacht finalists in the noughties, one of them is now stuck in intermediate and the other is treading water in senior regularly too. Many clubs had better teams and were much more competitive back then. And yet remarkably for a team that's so utterly dominant in the county they had only one player on the Sligo team in this year's championship.

Bunninadden are playing Geevagh in the intermediate final next Sunday. Bunnies were relegated to D3 this summer but have taken out two of the favourites, and they have every chance of making it three.

Was that Gerry Kinneavy still refereeing in the Corofin v Tuam match?
