What was the score in the Warwickshire v Scotland game then?

Scotland beat Warwickshire in Extra time, apparently the Scotland team were just made up of players from Connolly's though.

It was a very poor Warwickshire team, don't believe for 1 minute thats the best they have to offer. Scotland should have won in normal time.

Scotland are usually a very difficult team to beat, though i've heard that the warwickshire team wasnt great alright! Lancashire looked very impressive yesterday and will be the team everyone will have to beat. They also seemed to have a good spread of players across all the clubs which is a good sign!

Lads from all clubs on the panel, not sure if lads from Ann's travelled yesterday though. Will be suprised if they don't win it.

Very dissapointed with Warks yesterday considering they were playing Connolly's. There was a few lads playing who are really only Junior players in the Warks side. The player who impressed most only come on for Warks at Half time, he scored a great goal.

Is that big skin head lad Coyne a St Anns player? If he is then Anns were represented on the panel yesterday!

Lancashire seem to be taking it a lot more serious than have for the last few seasons which is great to see. They must be favourites to win it now? From what i've heard it was a very strong team out yesterday. We have a few more players from the club who were unavailable yesterday, and who would definitely add to the quality of the panel, i'm sure other clubs are the same.

He played for St. Anne's all through the under-age - we played against them many times at various levels and, unless he's transferred (which I very much doubt), he's still an Anne's player.He was always a good player, great fielder and very hard to mark. Curiously, he used to start in midfield at under-age but then moved to full-back during games.

Liam did play, didn't know he was travelling. Played for Brendan's as a kid before he went to Ann's!

Does anyone know the scores in the Junior champioship games today - London v Hertfordshire and Warwickshire v Glouscestershire?

carnaross · June 21, 2009, 09:27:01 PM

Warwickshire 1.16 Gloucestershire 2.09 (AET); London 0.13 Hertfordshire 1.09.

If Warwickshire make it through the back door they willl have played alot of football and surely must be contenders. If they beat london it will be their 4th game in the competition - two of which have gone to extra time - thats 3 and a half games more than any other team they may meet. I have heard they havent been very impressive so far but this level of preparation must stand them in decent stead if they make it through!!

Some surprises in the Lancashire championship yesterday. Oísin's defeat at the hands of St Ann's was a big shock, maybe St. Ann's aren't as bad as everyone thought. St Peter's cruised past an understrength St Brendan's side which was surprising given their success this season so far. John Mitchel's seem to be doing just about enough in their games, bit they're still winning and will probably get motoring from here on in.

What happened to Oisins? Where they missing many players - surely St Anns havent improved that much?
