NFL Division 2 2025

[rodney trotter]

I'd guess there will be pitch inspections Sunday morning?

Navan has won awards for been best pitch in country. The rest of the stadium is a disgrace and needs to be demolished asap. However every discussion about the refurbishment has always stated the pitch must not be touched, not even by bringing in machinery etc. the pitch will be fine. The rest of the place could be the problem

Are there any plans to do work in Navan?

It is a mess alright. Really run down and the facilities are not fit for spectators.


They have plans but they have been delayed for a while.

Ye've still got the green grassy slopes so?

Half time home side in control. Monaghan 3-5 Cork 0-5

[SouthOfThe Bann]

Cork football an enigma. So much untapped potential.

They need a Jim Mcguinness like figure.

[Blowitupref]

Result Monaghan 3-16 Cork 1-15.  The Farney men back in a strong position for promotion again after last weeks defeat. Looking like a another year for Cork in Div 2 so long as they don't drop down, they got relegated from Div one in 2016.

plans for years. Was to be definitely started last may. We were told no more delays. All ready to go. And then nothing.

we have. Although they closed due to health and safety. But when there is a big crowd people still manage to get in. The score board was blown down in the recent storm and v Cavan we had this tiny thing no one could see.

So far so good in div 2 with the Monaghan rebuild/regeneration, even the recent away loss to the Rossies was a much better performance than last years' total wipeout.  As for Cork, they've a home game v the Rossies and away to Louth & Cavan, they're not yet out of the running for a promotion spot.

Cavan 1-22 Westmeath 0-21 full time from Mullingar. Cavan trailed 0-17 to 0-5 at half time.

Vital wind-assisted victory there. Hopefully the lads gather enough additional points to stay up.

Dermot McCabe reportedly happy with the result.

I'd say Cork's minds are concentrating on staying out of the Tailteann (they are on Kerry's side of the draw in Munster) than promotion.

[SouthOfThe Bann]

Outrageous result for Meath.

Are they looking at promotion now?

[seafoid]

Great win for Meath. The Rossies lost their unbeaten status.

Any predictions for weekend?
 
Meath vs Roscommon

Westmeath vs Cavan

Louth vs Down

Monaghan vs Cork


   

Meath vs Roscommon - Meath massively improved but might be a step too far this week; Rassies by 3

Westmeath vs Cavan - One of the lesser known local derbies - unless your from Finnea - Cavan by 7

Louth vs Down - Another local Derby of Sorts - Down by 3

Monaghan vs Cork - Definitely not a local derby - Monaghan by 2

Meath are 5/2 and I can't help thinking that is a bit of value. 

me too and I'll have some of that.

Ha! Good man.

[grounded]

Killer loss for Down. You'd imagine it will be Down and Westmeath for the drop.
    Meath have impressed me, they are away to Westmeath next, home to Monaghan with a tricky enough away game against Louth in the last round.
     I wouldn't bet against them going up.
     
     

[Blowitupref]

Some big results today. Westmeath with a mountain of challenge to avoid relegation after another home defeat.

Meath replacing Colm O Rourke with a recent All Ireland club winning manager is proving a shrewd move.

Important win for louth and what could prove a damaging one for Down.
