Longford Football (& Hurling) Thread

I go with Dromard and Clonguish to reach final.

Also I cannot see Columbas losing to The Connollys. I know Laureleye will be watching game from behind his fingers on Sun but, c'mon, I know Mullinalagta hit the 'reverse' gear over the summer but, Jazes, it's The Connollys

On a lighter can I put on record my full support and alliegence to our new master and commander, Peter 'Payter' O'Reilly.

Shame that he'll hardly be umpiring again!

I tried that for the Granard match. Didn't work.

By the looks of things, they've discovered a new "implode" gear.

They may only have won one match so far this year but tomorrow would be enough for them :/

John Miskella lets out a sigh of relief....

Well, Dromard bate 12 bales of shite out of Abbeylara.

All eyes on later today....

Shamrock Shore · August 30, 2009, 02:25:04 PM

Oh dear.

Connollys win by 6 points.

Disaster for Mullinalaghta and Laureleye.

Very, very angry at the moment.

Billys Boots · August 31, 2009, 09:15:43 AM

I feel for the half-parish, genuinely.

I've had no word on last night's proceedings - what happened?

And good luck to Paythur.

Shamrock Shore · August 31, 2009, 09:48:20 AM

Clonguish win it with a late late goal.

Them v Dromard in final.

Billys Boots · August 31, 2009, 11:16:30 AM

Probably the 'form' final, in fairness.

The Forfeit Point · September 05, 2009, 12:48:32 PM

after seeing what dromard did to abbeylara, its shown all of us where we stand in the pecking order in longford club football. its going to be a long time before sean connolly is back in the town, especially after seeing the humiliation of our minors in the semi final

what on earth happened mullinalaghta im shocked about that result? they were going great showing real promise. at the start of the year i thought they might reach a semi final.

Billys Boots · September 07, 2009, 09:11:17 AM

I think Dromard have learned how to 'play' most/all of the clubs in the county, tactically. I don't see Clonguish having the wherewithall for them in the final, though I'd imagine that Clonguish would want to be playing them (rather than Ballymahon) in the final. That said, Dromard can do the grind better than Ballymahon when they feel like it.

LaurelEye · September 09, 2009, 12:34:04 AM

thanks

What's everyone's call for Sunday - can't see past the Swampies myself, unless: (a) they have a mare, succumbing to their hype (please, please, please!

), or (b) Dowd and the Bardens all have the games of their lives (which is a tall order). Dromard, by 5.

It would be ironic if Dromard's closest shave in the Championship this year was to come from the team that got relegated to Intermediate
