We in Galway were honestly lucky enough to get out of there today with a win. A very good Leitrim team and something good is undoubtedly building with that group ye have. Best of luck for the rest of the summer and go raibh maith agaibh for the usual craic and great reception around lovely Carrick.

It was abd still is a great place for discussions but you probably have contributed much to it thanks for that seeing as you only 94 posts please. Thank you." The absolute irony of this post…..

This forum used to be a great place for genuine discussion, with plenty of thoughtful contributions. Recently, however, we've seen an influx of so-called Leitrim supporters, some of whom have made questionable and, at times, arrogant remarks about neighbouring counties. Leitrim is a proud football county, but it's clear that many of those now commenting probably haven't been at a Leitrim game in years.
Turning to yesterday, huge credit must go to the players and management. I've said it before, but it's a serious achievement when Leitrim can push teams like Galway, Mayo, or Roscommon and make them work hard for a victory. It's been a long time since I left a Connacht Championship match thinking "what if" - too often in the past the game was effectively over after 20 minutes.
It was great to see all the interaction with the young children and players after the match.
So fair play to what is a very young team. Hopefully this is something to build on, and that this group of players can stick together and develop over the next few years.

Replying To togoutlads: "Got the win but calamitous errors are going to cost us big games if we don't majorly sharpen up. What do we have to do in Galway to get our restarts sorted? Such a massive and repeated element of every game and can PJ and sideline and these players actually ever get it right, efficient, and effective?! I don't know.
Also, so much lateral and ponderous build up is getting very predictable. Better teams will turn ball over again and again if we don't mix in serious strike runs, cuts etc" Ironically one of our best strike runs of the day was blocked by the ref and Leitrim carried ball away

Replying To preddan: "It would be a total injustice to westmeath if they were to go out on four points while a team with barely two points could qualify from the other group to reach a semi. It's ridiculous" There is no doubt this championship was designed by the bigger counties to suit themselves and supported by counties who are football dominated. These people have no interest in promoting hurling which fantastic people in Kildare,Offaly,Carlow,Laois and ourselves are striving so hard to do while the suits tick boxes.

Will be interesting to see how the 3rd and 4th ranked counties get on today, yes that implies I consider Leitrim to be in the top 2 teams with Galway in no particular order.

Replying To jobber: "A superb performance and well done to all concerned.Now its simple go to Portlaoise and win never ever easy. We will need the same energy and determination next week.
Nevertheless we cannot get away from the sheer stupidity of the organisers of this competition who made us play two knock out games to get to this group and now we could end up on four poits and eliminated." It would be a total injustice to westmeath if they were to go out on four points while a team with barely two points could qualify from the other group to reach a semi. It's ridiculous

Credit where credit is due, Poacher, St Ledger and McGrath has a serious job done on this Leitrim team, they were left with a mess at the end of 2024, now they are better coached, they play with confidence, they play with a bit of aggression, they are playing for the manager, the age profile is so young they can only get better, I hope people get out in big numbers during Tailteann Cup, the players and the management deserves the support. Up Leitrim.

Replying To anotheralias: "Am i he only one who thought the penalry was very soft and definitely not a black card. The leitrim player barged in and it was a collision of bodies which arguably was a penalty but how the ref have seen that as a deliberate drag down?" It was a very harsh black card. Flaherty came out and stood his ground. Not much else he could have done except get out of the way and let McLoughlin through for an open goal. McLoughlin ran into him, rather than Flaherty taking him down.

Very knowledgeable about football and good craic too. Best of luck in the final v Mayo and further in the championship.

On the topic of the split season, the only split we see now is leagues with non county players and championships with non injured county players, it's the club season that is split." All tests were clear and he was released from Cavan A&E the following morning.

Replying To gaillimhboy: "Poacher gave it his all on the line today, can he why his players buy into him, and why opponents wouldn't like him!
In terms of Connacht final, going by PJ's comments J McGrath might be under pressure to make it. If he can't I'd go with something like
Flaherty
Silke Hernon Glynn
McHugh Daly Kelly
Conroy Maher
McGrath McDaid Darcy
Finnerty Comer Walsh
Good argument too to bringing Comer and Walsh off the bench with 20 mins to go…." Would you not consider it a step backwards to include both Comer and Walsh in the first 15 when they haven't been consistently fit for an awful long time. Should they be treated more of a bonus rather than build a team plan around them ?
