Easy enough win for Meath without being too spectacular. Plenty of room for improvement from both teams. It was a bad night for football. Interesting reading over the predictions. Not too many tipping Meath and a lot of Roscommon posters tipping Down to hammer Meath. Had a good feeling Meath would win and I won nice few euro off the bookies.
Meath need Roscommon to lose their two games or Down to lose their remaining game to have any chance of getting promoted now.

Good win for Meath in Newry last night, makes for an interesting final day. Fancy Galway to win today, but Roscommon to beat Westmeath on the final day to gain promotion. Pressure is on Down a bit now, they were poor last night and wouldn't put it past laois getting a win up there which would leave the door open for Cavan or Meath, neither of which have been that impressive. No stand out team in this division all fairly mediocre.

Its a strange feeling, Meath have been the better team in their last 3 games and managed to lose one draw one and win one , we really should have promotion achieved at this stage, one day we will actually convert all the chances we are creating, last night was a win in terrible conditions. I hope we haven't left promotion behind against inferior opponents

Credit to our lads last night, we outplayed Laois for a log time last night, but still fell behind going into last minute and with Div 3 staring us in the face what a goal from Bolton and a point from Paul Cribbin. We are still favourites to go down but we have given our selves a chance now. Defensively we were much improved and for the first time there seemed to be a real togetherness, hopefully that continues. Good win for Meath in Down, They look a far better team when they have Gillespie & Kevin Reilly on board. We are looking for the Rossies to do us a favour against Galway today, but last night was good for the heart if you are a lilywite.

Good win last night, but you are still in Div2 needing favours from other teams for promotion , so i wouldnt be grabbing the bouquets just yet.

Oh I agree,still don't think we will get promoted,but we are hardly the worst team in dv2... By the way why would you like to see Meath get promoted?

Great battling win from Kildare last night . Showed the determination that is required and I can seeing them beating Galway in Tuam next week . Saying that Laois were very very poor . They are so inconsistent .Apart from Donie Kingston they are have no one who can perform anywhere consistently .

It's a real pity there were no TV cameras in Portlaoise last night for Emmet Bolton's goal. It was as good a goal as I have seen in years just when Kildare really needed it. It shows how far back Kildare have declined that we required 1-1 in injury time to put Laois away and put relagation off for another week but at least we have a chance now, albeit a slim one.

Again and it pains me to say it but we might just miss out on promotion again thanks to throwing away a win (against Laois this time) but then again we may not even beat Cavan, they are a very defensive team and I just hope we've learned how to deal with that style.

If we do end up in contention and results do go our way will it come down to head to heads before score difference or is it score difference first?

Two wins for the rossies would guarantee laois survival, so that's who we will be cheering for. Thrilling game in portlaoise last night.

I was one of the few who tipped a Meath win.It wasnt Kerry they were playing after all.Down are average.Personally ive always liked Meath and would like to see them get promoted.Always respected their manly style of play.

Poolbeg . I dont know what match you saw last night .laois won midfield have clearly better forwards. Fair enough kildare won . But they had to . I am very confident should we beat carlow we will turn ye over in
the summer

Looks like Roscommon and Down for promotion, theirs to loose. Down will surely not be as poor as last night and Laois will be without Kingston, Roscommon should scrape past Westmeath
