Another waste of time.

Stay at home save you're money for the super 8's.

Wayne you hear football is dead cause we hammered Wicklow ha, Wicklow with a total of zero Leinster titles.

Agreed Pearce Park please, Mr Leinster Council.

Doubt it though after Kildare and Meath exits today the Leinster Council will be looking to raise some funds.

To be fair the gamethough thouraghally enjoyable, it was a non contest from the start, but because it wasn't on TV I thought there was less of the cloak and dagger stuff from Gavin we usually get in the early rounds.

Watching some of the stuff Fenton, Howard, Kilkenny and Con did was pure entertainment.

I'd pay in to watch them train.

You all would be welcomed with open arms to Pearse Park!! It's already set for Croke Park unfortunately.

While it was great to get the win over Meath despite playing particularly well for large parts and some basic errors being made, we will be under no illusion of the size of this task.

I don't think the scoreline will be as bad as a few years ago as there were a lot of young lads that day who have picked up some valuable experience since then but if we could keep it to maybe 10 points or less it'd be great.

That being said, I for one am looking for a few pints in McGraths before the game and hopefully an enjoyable day! Longford Abú ;-)

The last time Longford and Dublin played each other Longford won!! If I remember correctly the likes of Jonny Cooper, Phill McMahon, Dean Rock, Niall Scully, Mick Fitzsimons, Paddy Andrews and Cormac Costello played that game along with other big name Dublin players.

O'Byrne Cup 2015 as far as I remember in Longford!
