All-Ireland Club Football Final - Crossmaglen v Garrycastle

[Denn Forever]

OK, I know this question may irritate Shane's nose like a wire toilet brush, but any of you lads/lassies know what radio station is carrying the match?  Thanks.

You may not thank me but Northern Sound or their sister station Shannonside may be doing it.

Thank you, Denn

[Rossfan]

Midlands are bound to be covering it seeing as it's a Westmeath team.
Wouldn't really expect Shannonside to do any more than update reports.

But aren't Athlone and Lough Ree in Westmeath and doesn't the Shannon flows through them?

And remember Lough Ree, where the 3 counties meet, Longford, Westmeath and Roscommon.

It's a very wide river down around them parts .
However if Willie Hegarty wants to go out to the spot in Lough Ree where the 3 Counties meet.....

Good stuff.
One comment ... comments on here and elsewhere in advance of the draw regarding Garrycastles midfield were along the lines of 'best midfield seen at this level in years'. They were wiped in the drawn game and while the talking-up of them before the draw was overdone, I can't see them being wiped again. The very wide open spaces of Croker along with it being a very 'fast' pitch did not suit them and I would be surprised if they did not have more of an influence in the replay.

Croke Park dimensions 144m x 86m
Breffni Park 143m x 86m.
Pitch size is not going to be an issue and they are a similar surface so if it is "faster" or "slower" I don't know but I don't see the oitch being the winning and losing of the midfield battle. I would suggest that the level of work rate around the lose ball will be the winning and losing of the midfield.

Wow. I've played a few times in Breffini years back but time must be playing tricks with my memories.!
Still don't see it playing as fast as Croker though despite all the good weather

To BC and Crossmaglen Rangers, all the best, now get out there and consolidate your position as the single greatest club team of all time.

Would this not be considered a 'new' Crossmaglen team? The majority would have 1, maybe 2 All-Ireland medals?  Could hardy be considered a better team than their predecessors (yet!).

Think Cross will put great emphasis on making a good start.  If they can do that, then I can't see them being beaten.

For those abroad, this is the one working unless you want the death notices.
