Longford Football (& Hurling) Thread

[Shamrock Shore]

Has Brendan Gilmore any hope of ousting Pat Cahill?

I see the motions are the usual auld load of shite. I see Swampies want matches available on line or for download via Crayonsite.

Walk first - then run.

3: That bye law 4, subsection vii, f delete the following exception, "that a player may declare for a club within a parish in which he went to National School and first played schools football with". Baile Uí Mhatháin

This is Abbey's usual bugbear (although they have no-one to blame for the O'Hara fiasco but themselves). Why are the shams doing stooge for them?

8: That Longford County Board make adjustments or renovations to the existing dugouts to improve the quality of the view towards the top right hand side of Pearse Park (Mc Donald's End). Droim Árd

Just put them in the other dugout.

9: That Longford County Board invest in its existing sound system to improve the sound quality for its attendee's at big matches. Droim Árd

10: That Longford County Board make available a DVD recording to all participating Clubs in championship matches for free as a gesture towards the player's for providing this entertainment to all attending these matches. Droim Árd

Grrrr....

11: That Longford County Board make available to all clubs through the Longford GAA Website previous recorded County Finals or any other such material associated with County Final Day for downloading or pay per view as part of a online historical archrival system for the clubs. Droim Árd

Surely Dromard already have a historical archrival?

Copehagen should be informed about these motions. The amount of useless hot air that will be generated will surely melt Greenland.

The brother was saying the proposed 'Centre of Excellence' passed its first test recently.

i.e. the hooring site wasn't under 10 foot of water.

You can always take that point up with Mrs Berry, who may have a differing opinion

I assume that the prohibition is in relation to minors - seniors can declare for whoever they want as several Colmcille players resident in Edenmore and Fostra can testify.

[Billys Boots]

Ah there's not several - is there?  Anyhow, Edenmore and Fostra are only parts of Swampland geographically - it would be a human rights abuse to expect them to play for anyone but Colmcille.

Three on the championship-winning team. I forgot Glenmore.

Indeed. Their chances of winning medals would definitely be affected

It's not about medals - it's about self-esteem.

Would ye lot in Colmcille ever get a grip. Berry is one of us! Always will be as long as those doggy knees of his last! What a player though pity we didnt hvae a few more like him. Anyway convention was the usual load of crap.

[North Longford]

Hopefully we won't have to rely on paperwork f**k-ups to stay in Senior this year. Anything above that will be a bonus.
