Not any more.

Almost impossible for Mayo to have a representative in this year's Connacht Senior & Intermediate championships. County officials better hope that sam comes home or there will be open war at the next County board meeting.

Anyone know if the games go ahead on the 8th/9th or the 15th/16th?

Just send the Champions from last year at Intermediate, Senior and Junior. St Mary's get another shot at the Intermediate AI title again this year, Sure why can't we do the same with Hollymount/Carramore?

That's what they'll do.

G'wan Mitchels!

Hollymount-Carramore won the league. Maybe they should be Mayo's reps in the Connacht series?

If there was a Connacht League series, that would make sense.

The rule was changed about 15 years ago that counties could no longer nominate a representative for the provincial competitions where the county comps are unfinished, I know Kiltane got put into Connacht on that basis way back when but that's not allowed any more. Only where there's no club first team winning the junior or intermediate (or in Kerry/Cork a divisional team like South Kerry winning senior) will someone be allowed through (e.g. my own club lost the Sligo Junior final to St. Mary's second string two years ago but went out into Connacht the following week).

But it's Connacht, and more importantly it's Mayo, he'll they'll find a way to get around it.

Yeah I remember in 2008 the Galway junior final ended in a draw so we had no representatives in Connacht that year.

[Farrandeelin]

Wouldn't be surprised if the Co final was played on the 29th and the Connacht series the day after.

Right then, let's get back to disliking each other again....

[GaillimhIarthair]

Pat Harte and Fintan Ruddy both sent off in the Sligo final yeasterday?  What brought the 2 of them up there, sure Harte is from down the road in Ballina and would have an AI club with them I think?

Both have been playing in Sligo for a few years. Wasn't Ruddy involved in Sligo squad for a while.

Harte's dad is originally from Tourlestrane and they have a farm there. Pat is probably living over there now since he got married. I know he was doing a bit of farming over there for years.
