Replying To Mayonman: "New York fast approaching. Be careful with your mobile data. You could get scalded very easily. Might be worth investing €20 in an eSim. I am looking at GoMoworld. Not sure if I'll venture to the Dancing event! Less formal event in Mustang Harrys on the Friday (meet and greet with the squad and past players). Connollys has a fundraiser for Caherlistrane, I think GBFM are in Jakes Saloon on the Saturday afternoon .....i think but not sure! Can't wait. Should be a great trip. Anyone else have any info?" Friday Galway team available to meet the public after training in Gaelic Park - 5:30 to 6:30 Mustang Harry's at 8pm. Meet & Greet with the Galway team. Saturday Dancing like a star - Hammerstein Ballroom - 7pm. Sunday Pre match - bars in McLean Ave, Yonkers. New York vs Galway - Gaelic Park - 3pm Post match reception - Jake's Saloon - 9pm * (Sources Galway supporters club NYC and Galway GAA) When is the Caherlistrane gig on? I didn't here anything about GBFM in Jake's saloon. Most people will be doing their own thing, just going to the match but there is plenty of Galway events on.

Apparently issues this week with the availibility of Gaelic Park. Its reported that Donald Trump wants to reclaim it as part of his plan to make America GREAT again! Match could be moved to Boston according to my sources over there. bridgerebel (Galway) - Posts: 46 - 01/04/2025 09:28:10 2599876 Link

Replying To Marooned: "Been saying it here for a while. The U20 and minor All-Ireland wins in 2020 and 2022 haves glossed over a lot of recent very average or even poor years at underage. No Connacht minor title since 2018. No Connacht U20 title since 2020. Galway have seriously slipped at underage and I don't hear it being addressed much. With the likes of Conroy, Comer and Walsh not having a whole lot of time left playing senior intercounty. It doesn't bode well for replacing them." I think Galways chance to nick an All Ireland has gone now unflrtunately. JimB1991 (Donegal) - Posts: 15 - 02/04/2025 00:12:34 2600056 Link
Cooke is with the squad and will be in for the rest of the year. galway19 (Galway) - Posts: 847 - 02/04/2025 09:46:53 2600066 Link
Replying To galway19: "Cooke is with the squad and will be in for the rest of the year." Heard yesterday but assumed it was an April Fools. Will surely take him a while to get upto speed so wouldn't expect much from him too soon. But what a boost to spring from the bench. And if he can nail 45s he could be a starter in latter rounds. We need a consistent 45 taker. jobseekersbent (Galway) - Posts: 387 - 02/04/2025 10:34:32 2600074 Link
Replying To galway19: "Cooke is with the squad and will be in for the rest of the year." Anything concrete from management confirming it. I only see Galway Beo mentioning it which I would take with a handful of salt jm25 (Galway) - Posts: 1419 - 02/04/2025 10:43:03 2600078 Link

Replying To Gearoid1998ffowaed: "This is nonsense. He doesn't even live in New York anymore, he's moved to London. Either way he should come back to the squad in the next week or two before it's too late." Cooke is returning it's now been confirmed Kew (Galway) - Posts: 152 - 02/04/2025 11:37:21 2600086 Link
Absence makes the heart grow fonder. Pope_Benedict (Galway) - Posts: 4045 - 02/04/2025 12:57:54 2600102 Link
I wouldn't want to see Comer Walsh and possibly Conroy play on that pitch Sunday It's a day for the likes of Tierney Thompson Finnerty and Heaney to lead forward line and get ready for the big one v Roscommon. I think the two O'Cs have not taken opportunities in league I'd like see mannion get some game time seems to have physicality which the two lads just don't seem ready yet. Just get out of game unscathed and onto Roscommon jm25 (Galway) - Posts: 1419 - 02/04/2025 13:24:41 2600106 Link
Replying To Pope_Benedict: "Absence makes the heart grow fonder." It certainly does, but at the same time, is he a better footballer than some we have on the panel currently? Does it strengthen our options by having him available? The answer to both of those is a definite yes, in my opinion. So I'm very glad to hear he's back with us.

Replying To Pope_Benedict: "Absence makes the heart grow fonder." Well he is a better shooter from play than 95 per cent of the current panel so that is a starting point. galway19 (Galway) - Posts: 847 - 02/04/2025 15:57:07 2600148 Link
Replying To galway19: "Well he is a better shooter from play than 95 per cent of the current panel so that is a starting point." When we played Galway a few weeks ago you were scoring points from everywhere and Conroy and others were missing. Scenicparish (Donegal) - Posts: 445 - 02/04/2025 16:08:56 2600151 Link
Replying To Scenicparish: "When we played Galway a few weeks ago you were scoring points from everywhere and Conroy and others were missing." Conroy and Walsh the only lads who could compete with Cooke for point kicking. Stick him on the arc in possession with Conroy and Tierney either side and with Comer inside, Walsh floating in between the 21 and 45. galway19 (Galway) - Posts: 847 - 02/04/2025 16:54:58 2600164 Link
