So did Westport win 2023? First Mayo team ever to win Div 1?

I wonder how many have a Feile winners medal and an All Ireland Senior?

Great work lads - just 2023 left?

That's super lads. So a couple of follow ups since I posted this, it's for Division 1 ......

1. St Finbars 3 in a row 88-90 - any evidence ? I has Crossmaglen 88, Newbridge Sars 89
2. Bishopstown 87?
3. Crossmaglen 2002
4. 2023?
5. 2024?

There is definitely a book to be written on this and the co-relation between Feile success and All Ireland senior club championships in later years.

Thanks for the help .

Here's where I'm at and I stand corrected !! :
1982 - Erins Isle Dublin
1984 - Vincents Dublin
1991 - Laune Rangers Kerry
1992 - Clonduff Down
1993 - Round Towers Dublin
1995 - Corofin Galway
1998 - Ballyboden Dublin
1999 - Salthill Galway
2000 - South Kerry
2003 - Kilmacud Dublin
2004 - Corofin Galway
2005 - Sylvesters Dublin
2007 - O'Donovan Rossa Derry
2008 - Kilmacud - Dublin
2009 - Ballyboden Dublin
2010 - Na Fianna Dublin
2011 - Ballymun Dublin
2012 - Brigids Dublin
2013 - Burren Down
2014 - Naas
2015 - Austin Stacks Kerry
2016 - Castleknock Dublin
2017 - Burren Down
2018 - O'Donavan Rossa Derry
2019 - Kilmacud , Dublin

Folks,

Whilst the hurling community has a wiki page listing all the past winners of Feile, I can't find a similar page for the Division 1 national football winners. Can anyone help to combine this list since 1982 , when Erin's Isle from Dublin won it? I'm missing 83,85-90, 94, 96-97,01-02, 06, 20-21, 23-24.

Thanks

Pearse Park , some past managerial casualties from a summers Saturday night in Longford : 
Pete McGrath Down ,
John Brennan , Derry,
John O'Mahoney Mayo,
Brian McIvor Derry.....

I wouldn't fancy Kildares trip 

Perhaps the winner of the replay should put out their U20s against Dublin , to give their squad a rest for the Round 2 qualifier? Can you imagine the media reaction to it!

Would anyone know if there is a place that houses all the results for the NFL and NHL matches since inception? There has to be some sort of archive service out there!

Many Thanks

I'm thinking that the lack of exposure on these three contests is that who ever wins will be beaten next time out.  Dublin , Kildare and Meath waiting the winners.

Whilst disappointed naturally it was a strange at the final whistle. If we had lost to any other team I'd be livid , but maybe what's been shared in the black and green jersey for a couple of decades now marks is as different. Two of the smallest parishes in the county battling it out for Sean Connolly was a pride filled occasion. The better won and controlled the game for 45-50 minutes, Abbey did well to keep it to three. Right now the more western part of the minor club have the better talented players without doubt.

The black and green was first discussed when Nemo Rangers were on the winning run and the late great Peter Sheridan, John Fay and John Reilly gave credence to the fact that it would be unique. First jerseys we worn by the Division 2 Minor League winners of 1992 ( when just 3 teams competed at Div 1 level) .

Anyway, to the likes of the Leonard's, Paddy Early, Christy Reilly, Sean Reilly, The Mulligans, Daniel Lynch, etc etc I salute you and enjoy. Make sure you give the Leinster 1st round a proper go.

The current pricing of the game merely reflects the bookies liabilities where quite a few substantial bets were placed on Abbey at 14, 12 & 10s. They were way over priced at those odds. If this was a market based on form then I'd be giving odds of 1/2 the half parish & 5/2 on the Abbey.

As a former player with the Gaels this is the dream final but a question to be answered before Oct 16th .... Why did the club colours become black & green?

Tasty Northern Gaels final coming up.

Is there a show of betting anywhere? PP not doing it neither is odds checker.

Hard not to feel disappointed with the outcome and our lack of ability to get back on top at some stage of the second half. Even if we had left Robbie Smyth higher up the pitch rather than Kavanagh for that period we had a chance but the middle 3rd belonged to Cork and we couldn't handle their subs at all. We should have been 6 to 9 points in front going in at the break, they should've been down to 14 at half time also.
