Handy draw for Colmcille. I believe half the young Abbeys are America-bound for the summer.

Not just as bad as last year for us with a four-team group instead of three.

Thanks Longfordian. We had a good night in Croke Park that night. Lots of GAA stalwards there with pioneer pins and comb-overs.

I see Colmcille had a good win last night over the townies. WTF happened them against Rathcline?

I think club football is the only thing that we'll be talking about here for a while - a new nadir yesterday in Pearse Park apparently. 

Head about the good display in Farneyhoogan alright Laureleye, but no-one was able to explain it to me.  ::)

When a team's opening point gets what could only be described as a sarcastic round of applause from their own supporters things can hardly get any worse, but I'm sure our management team can find new depths to explore.

According to texts received from Laurel yesterday while I was hiding in London not only was this the worst Longford team in his memory it was also the worst Longford team in Auld Shamrock Shore's memory!!!!!!

And that bates Banagher!

(and no, i wasn't scoping Ruislip for next year)

Main engine in the forward line gone to Australia for the year.

Best forward in the county at present not taking part after a cameo against Wicklow.

Best-known forward not able to make the first team in his club in Dublin.

Longest-serving forward still injured.

Another two forwards out injured after racing round a flipping dog-track.

Remaining players seemingly demoralised with a training regime that seems to consist of running and little or nothing else. (Having said that, they need to look at themselves as well as at the management.)

What would you expect other than the shambles we have at the moment?

Can someone not shout stop now. The ambition has long since disappeared from Longford GAA people. It's been run at all levels by a bunch of old farts with nothing at stake except their own egos and hidden agendas , mostly of a commercial and political nature.
I'm sick of this - its being going on for ages. The decent people would not go withing an asses roar of getting involved.
How would any your kid aspire to play for the county senior team? A life of playing division four football to no crowds. This is serious.

In other news Mostrim second in Div 1.

Now that's good news in a bleak landscape.

Mostrim bate 12 bales out of FMG (Dad's Army) and I see Mullinyachta had a good win over Clonguish. Good stuff Laureleye. May compensate for all this 'Larry Cunningham is from Granard' shite that was on Nationwide recently.

That program is still on RTE iPlayer. Worth a gawk for Louise Morrissey. Oh, sweet Jesus.......................

Looking good for the championship, especially seeing as the Shams seem to have imploded (hammered by Carrickedmond - Carrickedmond!).

We'll happily take the same score in June if we got it ;-) They were missing Paul Barden and Enda Williams and we were missing Kevin Mulligan.

Ah now, wasn't she nearly an Edgytown woman in her time :-D

I was just looking at the lineup for yesterday's stunning victory - Declan Reilly is named at #13 and Paddy Dowd at #14.  He's not really playing four midfielders, is he?  I wonder if there's any chance that the Louth match could be played in Afghanistan, so I won't be tempted to go?
