GAA in Britain

[Plastic Paddy]

Warwickshire hurling final takes place on Sunday at 2.30pm after the customary co board balls up of changng the times 2 or 3 times. County Champions John Mitchel's take on Fullen Gaels in what is expected to be a close run final.
[John Mitchels 2-9 Fullen Gaels 2-6. We mugged them with 1-1 in injury time. Club Championship Final next sunday in Birmingham v Thomas McCurtains at 2 o'clock]

Mitchells struggled through this one, normally you can expect Lyons and Healy down the middle to carry the team through but both were quiet by their own standards. Fullen Gaels will be gutted but its never over until the final whistle and Mitchells proved that. I'd say they will come on in leaps and bounds now that they have had a good hard game under the belt. Big improvement required to stay in the competition.

Mitchel's won the club championship 2-10 to 3-6 Great start from Mitchel's leading 1-8 to 0-1 at half time with a strong wind. Struggled in the 2nd half with a late Mark Lyons point winning it.

Mugged, robbed on the scale of the northern bank more like, was a good tight game but that was the worse ive ever seen, he could do with hanging up his whistle after that sham.

The two lads were keep quiet due to the good proformances from codd n pat for the gaels. Codd is a player that will feature in the university championships this weekend. one to watch for sure

All-Britain football final this afternoon in Birmingham between John Mitchel's and Tara. I hope the Lancs lads retain the trophy.

[carnaross]

Mitchel's win 1-09 to 1-04. Tara had one red card and another off with two yellows. Apparently Mitchel's were always the better side. Anybody there and can shed a bit more light on the game?

Mitchels then better team but made hard work of it in 2 nd half missed a load of chances just after half time which allowed Taras back in with 3 unanswered points to lead by 1 with 10 mins left.But Mitchels got their 1st score of the 2nd half 20 mins in and never looked back. First Tara man went for 2 yellows after been well warned and 2nd went for flaking a man after the ball was gone. Corner Forward was very good for Mitchels in 2nd half

I don't know how easy it'll be to field a team to be honest. There were loads of irish students in Chester when I was there between The College of Law and Chester University but they all go home in the summer to be play for their clubs. The College of Law is opening a new branch in Manchester which will hit Chester as well, as most irish students will prefer the big city but that remains to be seen. I wish them all the best though, they've a nice pitch in Blacon as far as I can remember.
