I recall that farcical situation Hugely damaging and look at what followed after that Not the best setup to send underage success into wha! No wonder lads headed off to Oz But sure yep.. Dublin's fault right The saying " Your own worst enemy" springs to mind O'Neill is blessed he found a performance against Mayo because the wolves were circling after a humiliating defeat to Carlow. Meath too went about firing a successful manager. O'Brien treated terribly and things turned considerably worse for them after that.. it's only now with the help of an All Ireland winning manager that things are improving somewhat but even at that he's had a very poor 2018 Championship losing to Longford. Meath have gone through 4 or 5 managers this decade blaming managers rather than their own mismanagement. Dublin have always dominated. It's just been made a lot easier and an awful lot of that rests at the likes of Kildare's and Meath's doorstep. jimbodub (Dublin) - Posts: 20601 - 08/06/2019 15:44:52 2191702 Link 3 |

Jim will you be making a "bye bye Meath" thread this year or have you lost interest? You used to get fierce hyped over your local rivals. Must be fun having none. Jack_Goff (Meath) - Posts: 2920 - 08/06/2019 16:08:23 2191705 Link 6 |
I had totally forgotten about the hurling clubs getting a vote. Made a mockery out of it. Has that happened since or before??

It happens in every county board in the country although I'm sure in some counties the clubs which are exclusively one code would abstain from votes which only pertain to the other.

Man Unfortunately Kildare, Westmeath, Longford have been beating you regularly It's been a while since you lot deserved to stand on the same pitch as Dublin. jimbodub (Dublin) - Posts: 20601 - 08/06/2019 20:29:49 2191850 Link 3 |
Westmeath have only ever beaten us once in the championship, kildare have only beaten us once in eight years and longford have only beaten us once in 40 years, Hardly regular beatings.

How do you expect him to know that? He's a Dublin fan, not a GAA fan. Huge difference.

Fortunately though those matches have been exciting. Meath vs westmeath a few years ago what a classic. I really enjoy them win or lose.

Not being televised.? Two things come to mind, firstly RTE have nailed their colours to the mast by concentrating on Munster Hurling, which going on recent games appears to have been the incorrect choice. I find myself watching a lot of the 'championship' on BBC 1 great coverage of the ulster football games, Horsebox77 (Kerry) - Posts: 5491 - 09/06/2019 13:05:25 2192130 Link 0 |
I do believe it was a fellow Kerry poster who started this thread stirring the pot. As you rightly say, we are but a walk, bus or Luas away.

Why should the creator of the thread be in any way reflective on my opinion. We are not in any way that incestuous. My comments just highlight that RTE in my opinion backed the wrong horse, BBC's evening programme the championship is a better view than the Sunday game and my comments were not aimed at the creator more the 3 or 4 pages of sofa supporters thst wouldn't watch a game until the clocks change. I've often said the true gaa man will be met in Feb on away days or the like of Ennis last Sat on a miserable wet night not in HQ in semi or final days - and thst not me stirring or being a wum, you'll see from my history and posts thst my ethos is not way inclined Horsebox77 (Kerry) - Posts: 5491 - 09/06/2019 14:46:16 2192162 Link 3 |
