Longford Football (& Hurling) Thread

[Shamrock Shore]

I believe there may be rows afoot in The Stadium of Light in Dormard on Sunday.

Something about old county final scores to settle.

I think we'd all be happier if there was some football this time.

Congrats to Mostrim on the Hurling title by the way...

Yes indeed, fair play - they must be playing some sport in Edgerstown after all.

I'm sure Shamrock will remind you shortly of the Junior title this year...

He's tired today!

I believe Longford's best corner-forward is about to join Kilmacud Crokes, or am I allowed to discuss things like that?

Who's this Billy?

Jamesie? Kavanagh?

And why not Na Fianna - weren't/aren't they the market leaders in, eh, extraordinary renditions!

Still celebrating the hurling win. Is it still the case that one team gets a bye to the final?

Kavanagh is teaching down that direction, as far as I know. Very big blow for Ardagh if he goes (assuming that's who Billy is talking about). But I suppose in the days of the GPA, clubs don't matter that much.

Jamesie? From Billy? Very droll...

Yes, and the other takes part in the traditional legal battle to decide who gets to the final.

Might explain his non appearance at a very recent league play-off game?

And by the evidence of said game it is definitely a huge blow to Ardagh

Indeed. They were poor enough in the Championship this year even with him. Ballymore will struggle as well without the two McElvaneys and Damien Monaghan.

Jamesie?

Nice one SS, a good genuine laugh on a miserable Tuesday. 

I did mean Kavanagh by the way - I heard he's teaching down that way now, or did someone say that already?

I think it was mentioned in a newspaper article a few weeks ago.

Good win in An Pairc le Solus in Dromard today for Colmcille. Hardly enough revenge for the county final defeat but a Leader Cup final agin Clonguish with a possible win may soften the pain a wee bit.

A theory doing the rounds was that Dromard took her handy cos of the impending Leinster Q/F clash with Kildare champs, Moorefield.

By taking it handy today will prob mean that Dromard will be beaten by 30 points as opposed to 40 by Moorefield.

Or is that fair?
