Longford were far too good for a pretty dire Laois side last night.

Longford had the strong breeze in the first half and lead by a cricket score at half time (3-10 to 0-03)

As expected Laois did pick it up a little bit in the second half and pulled it back a little but the end result was never in doubt.

Final score Laois 0-13 Longford 3-18

One gripe was that there is no scoreboard in Portarlington - had to rely on twitter to make sure we had the scores right.

Longford face Carlow on Sat in Longford and then, hopefully a battle with Meath with the winners into the final.

Laois are trina cheile at the moment. They are in D4.
They must have money problems on top if they had to sell the scoreboard.

Portarlinton not the County Grounds, lots of problems in Laois but money isn稚 one of them.

The Laois people beside me reckoned only 2 names on the program were county material so perhaps Billy Sheehan is keeping his real team in cotton wool for the attempt to get out of Div 4.

If there isn't a 'real' team then Laois are in serious trouble. Laoislad would reckon Laois is a hurling county now - like their neighbours in Kilkenny.

Billy Sheehan isn稚 hiding a real team , we are in division 4 for a reason . We have about 5/6 lads to come back into that team ( some of them may not even make any difference in fact ) . Half of the Laois starters last night will be on the team and the 3 subs that came on ( Finn , OCarroll and B Byrne ) will all be on the team too . We will do very very well to come out of division 4 . Serious serious problems down here in Laois football at the moment from senior intercounty right the way down to grassroots .

Colm is committed to giving another handful of new lads their debut against Laois on Saturday. We might have another shaky start but we can throw on the experienced lads to bolster things again like last night.

[Captain Scarlet]

Kildare are mixing it up a nice bit and giving lads a chance but in reality there isn't much time to mess around. Overall is your own county settling their teams earlier or even the style of play yet?

Wasn't at the Kildare v Wexford game but the forwards were firing seemingly and now our issues seem to be at the back!
