Johns were 10 up at one stage 1-12 to 0-05. Unbelievable comeback and any team who comes back like that deserves a share of the spoils. Henry, Egan, Gaughan tore johns apart in last 20 mins and Marren showed bottle with the last few Frees. Cian Mcnamara, Rooney and Harrison excellent for Johns. MOM either Henry or Mcnamara. is it true Mike Mcnamara went on holidays...baffling to say the least
Referee i thought gave Tourlestrane nothing imo, mano is prob right to an extent in previous posts. Think ref tried too hard to punish o hara at times. Hope the replay is as good and really hope Johns will not rue today. which point are ye referring to. Was it mcnamaras that was wide but looked over??

Ballymote were well beaten today by a more clinical team yesterday. They just couldnt get to grips with the pace of Tourlestranes forwards and some of their own forwards had very disappointing days. Tour looked like they may be regaining some of their earlier league form and i fully expect them to beat St Johns and then Coolera in the final. Dont think the hunger is there for Harps this year.

It wasnt me that said it was a footblock because it was clearly a great diving block with the hands. Mchale said ball had to go dead but surely a goal is deemed dead. He blew when blew when ball was in flight about a second before it was fisted to net. But anyway i do hope its as exciting a game as it was last week and that we tighten things up at the back. Best of luck to both

Your like a broken record mano, mchale gave Ballymote a soft penalty the last day but he also disallowed a perfectly legit ballymote goal on the stroke of half time. Now your questioning one of the best refs in the country. Maybe if some players stopped their constant vendetta against referees decisions than tghings would be different.

Was at Ballymote game Sligonian and they had a perfectly legitimate goal disallowed on the stroke of half time. Ref wasnt great he blew for every little niggle but wasnt biased. If Mcgowan scored penalty Tour would have went on to win but Ballymote fought back well to equalise and were unlucky themselves not to score a goal through Doddy which may have swung the game in their favour. Actually a good game with plenty of drama. Agree that once Coolera were ahead their experience showed.
