New York v Ros 1st May.

Rossfan · April 11, 2016, 08:34:59 AM

The League is done and dusted, Division 1 status secured for 2017 and the last3 games have shown up our frailties.
Time to turn eyes on the real World but first we have to do our Community Service to the semi official twilight GAA world of NY plus the free holiday for the Connacht blazers.
First about 10 days rest for those who soldiered right through the NFL and a load of training for those who missed a lot of it.
Then get this nonsense game out of the way and avoid injury.

Why isn't Micheal lundy in the new York squad to face the rossies?

How many blazers travelling?

This fixture should be rotated among the 32 counties.

Rossfan · April 23, 2016, 09:58:32 AM

NY should be graded Junior and play the GB Champions in a Quarter Final.
Won't happen while the Connacht Council exists though.

Can the bus float on water to bring the team across?

Rossfan · April 23, 2016, 11:14:44 AM

The Hurley chaps will be using it for the Ring Cup.
Of course it can float and fly too.

However they managed that. It was common knowledge he was heading to New York well before last Christmas.

Maybe he just wants to get away from football altogether.
Our lads flying out Thursday and back on Tuesday.
Would love to think it's the last time we have to undergo this punishment but I suppose that's a vain hope.

Because playing for New York if you are an intercounty player is seen as a step down!

You hit the nail on the head there bunker, that and a Galway man never likes to get stuft by the Rossies.

It was common knowledge he was going alright but he was playing for Corofin up to the end of October, would that have delayed things transfer wise? He's playing club football out there though, would he not have needed a transfer for that? No idea how these things work!

New York manager confident of causing upset on Sunday.

Didn't New York Leitrim go to extra time in 2003?
