Well done to Pearse Og's.  Gives their fans something to do now instead of smashing the windows of opposing fans cars.

What is that about UTB, did someone break ur car window?

What age is Kieran Hughes, now lads? I thought he had retired, he must be mid-30s is he?

Well done to ogs and good effort by the harps. Best team won on the day. Conditions didnt help the football but it was still very intense. I thought JP,s sending off was very harsh and im sure he will be appealing it.

Congrats to Harps Minors,
Killevay posed a few problems but a strong defence is what won it for Harps. Mark Mc Coy and Conor White above the rest along with thwe shooting from Padraig Rafferty in attack.


Congrats to Pearse Ogs,
Not an all time 'great game' but none the less the result is always important in finals.
Good to see a few 'clubmen' with county medals, heres hoping they add a small ball county medal next year.
Its all about the Hurling.

So it's the ogs now to take on St Galls on the 1st of nov. Really can't see the ogs winning this game as they don't have the fire power to score naturally up front. I too would rather see Ronan on the edge of the square think he would add another dimension to their game. Overall i think the Og's lack pace up front but they have a decent defence. I noticed on sunday that the ogs half backs always played deep up the field effectively making the Harps half forwards track back and become defenders, thus nulifying their attack as they had no one good enough to exploit the huge space. I think this tactic was spot on against the harps as they could always outscore them but St Gall's will be a different animal. I wouldn't have thought the Ogs would want to leave the likes of CJ Mc Courty a massive amount of space to run into to. I would say they would want to compact the defence as much as possible like they did against cross. I eagerly await the battle of A.Mallon and CJ. Both clinking players and almost certainly no quarter will be given. My money is on Mallon to come out on top of this one because he simply won't give Mc Courty a minute (but then again he can be deadly in seconds) :o :o. I can honestly say i have never seen Andy mallon get the run around and i don't expect that to change on the 1st.
I never forget a face but in your case I will make an exception.

The only time I saw it was from Jim McConville when Andy was a young lad.  Jim made a dummy of him in Cross, not sure of the year.  Jim was in his last year I think and Andy was just in his 2nd season I think.  Real master teaching the pupil that day.

Andy is probably in the top 6 defenders in the country, believe me when I say this you just cant escape him, he was up my hole from I was 11 till 18, Bendover can verify that, although I mind a young slim lad gettin 2-7 off the two above lads in an U-14 c'ship, (just remembered we lost that one too) Quigley I think ya called him.

Anyway, just getting over the weekend, well done to the Ogs on a much deserved win and I wish then every success in the their quest for ulster medals.

Well at least he learned from a master BC, wee Jim was a legend and the key was that he did learn

Was just reading through the match programme today (which I thought was very well done) and noticed that the Harps have claimed the county titles won by Young Irelands. Now I know that the Harps have always had a connection with them and all that craic but being registered in the GAA as Young Irelands definitely means a different club and you can't claim those titles. I know it's only a small thing but it was a wee bit confusing
