A win over Longford could give us a shot at the Dubs. Nice!!

Or we could meet them in the O'Byrne shield if things dont go quite to plan.

Beware, the O'Byrne Cup is the highlight of the year in Longford.

Haven't the Dubs been sending out an u21 team in this for the past few years?

Should be a good scrap for the bihatimber in January! Roll on the new year

No, last year the senior where away in Spain so the U21 played. Dublin won this in 2007 and 2008

Can't wait now for the big clash in Pearse Park - team of the decade up for grabs, according to Billy's recently published criteria. (I'm a 2001-2010 man meself. Death to the 2000-2009ites).

Billys Boots · January 07, 2010, 11:28:17 AM

Fighting words Hardy, put 'em up (as they might say in Bellewstown).

thejuice · January 07, 2010, 12:55:10 PM

Its actually called Bell-yaas-town.

Meath Supporters Group are running a bus from Navan to Longford for it.

€15 a head = bargain

Think quite a few of our lads are lining out for their Alma Maters instead of the county team. King and Farrell are off galavanting Down Under for the winter, I think anyway. so we'll be without them.

Shamrock Shore thinks (and he's probably know) it's in Ballymahon.

The graveyard of champions.

Juice - it's actually called The Hill.

thats true, played my last game in Ireland up there. Are they using that pitch anymore or have they moved out to Duleek completely?

Shamrock Shore · January 07, 2010, 02:22:52 PM

Well fcuk that.

I was looking forward to the opening game of the season.

Game was scheduled for Ballymahon as the cows are Longford's 16th man. And we need all the help we can get.

Canalman · January 07, 2010, 03:29:48 PM

All O'Byrne Cup games are officially off this weekend.

Still open, but I don't know how much they use it.
