Replying To bláthach: "Good win tonight for the young lads. Well done to all. I thought Sligo were very poor, disappointingly so really. Although I'm sure they'll learn from finishing bottom of the group and come back stronger." Congrats on winning the Connacht Minor Shield.

Replying To martinjoe: "Very good win. Hopefully some of them Will be available to mgmt for selection in the T Cup." A "T Cup" is all ye will be lifting this year. Or maybe a paper one!! bláthach (Leitrim) - Posts: 33 - 19/04/2025 12:16:11 2602739 Link
Replying To S1234: "At least we fecking got to all those finals and I am still proud of them. Loads of counties like yourselves haven't even a hope of getting to a quarter /semi final let alone all the finals we have gotten to so grow up. We come back year after year and that's thanks to our good underage system. Don't be begrudging us..your underage system is good give it 4/5 years and ye will be doing well ."

Well if I don't think we can sustain it, but Leitrim are 0-5 to 0-4 up on Mayo after 18 mins thanks to two Barry McNulty two-pointers. Tacaí Liatroma (Leitrim) - Posts: 1161 - 19/04/2025 16:52:48 2602790 Link

Replying To martinjoe: "martinjoe, told ye yesterday!!!" I got shot down here too saying there was no way it would be a hammering. Sure what do I know. yew_tree (Mayo) - Posts: 11539 - 19/04/2025 18:01:01 2602820 Link

Fair play to them Leitrim players... Did your county proud.. pity the lads who walked away didn't stay. As for Mayo.... a shambles of a display.. Belclare7 (Galway) - Posts: 231 - 19/04/2025 18:14:23 2602829 Link
Replying To yew_tree: "I got shot down here too saying there was no way it would be a hammering. Sure what do I know." I think that says more about where Mayo is at, at the moment. You surely see why Leitrim folk were fearing for the worst today? Square_B (Leitrim) - Posts: 1266 - 19/04/2025 18:15:06 2602830 Link
A very creditable performance by us. You'd wonder if we had our full compliment available what might have happened. Kickouts proved a problem. But anyway well done to all. Mayo seem very poor. Galway shouldn't have a problem with them in the final. boxtyburgerbuns (Leitrim) - Posts: 230 - 19/04/2025 18:18:28 2602834 Link
Solid performance from Leitrim. Wasn't near the hammering people would have expected. Hopefully ye can build on this and give the Tailteann Cup a good shot. I wouldn't be surprised if a few players come back ye might bounce back up into division 3 next year. Lúla571210 (Louth) - Posts: 102 - 19/04/2025 18:26:18 2602840 Link
Fair play to them Leitrim players. What would have happened if ye had the few lads that didn't commit this year. McNulty is an outrageous footballer who would walk onto most teams in the country. If ye can match that performance for the rest of the year ye will have a great year. I wouldn't be poachers biggest fan but he had ye well drilled today. That's a performance that will have them lads out on the training pitch next week looking forward to the rest of the year.

Credit to Leitrim and especially Poacher and his management team for coming up with a plan and for players delivering such a competitive 70 minute performance. Final margin was harsh on the effort put in. As for Mayo more question and answers about them after playing Sligo and leitrim today. Will need Durcan,Conroy back but All Ireland Quarter final spot looks to be their max this year which would be improvement on last years round 12 exit.

Well done Barry mc nulty he's top class. Pity we didn't take the few easy chances we missed would have been much closer harleys (Leitrim) - Posts: 318 - 19/04/2025 19:21:31 2602863 Link
I have to say I'm very proud of that effort today. They were very well drilled and the players gave everything, I honestly thought it would be a disaster but I'm delighted to say I was wrong. Barry McNulty is something else, he is our very own Michael Murphy. So encouraged by this performance. 3rdmidfielder (Australia) - Posts: 409 - 19/04/2025 19:41:29 2602869 Link

Sitting inside our 45 for the whole of the second half and not attempting to go and try to win the game! Shambles against a team that were so poor on the day. The ref gave us every 50/50 decision going. The kickout plan, kick it down the middle and hope to god Barry Mc wins it. When Mayo got to grips with it in the second half we had no variation. We have some stand out players. Let's hope a new manager can get more out of them next year. Willies24 (Leitrim) - Posts: 46 - 19/04/2025 19:50:40 2602872 Link
Replying To Square_B: "I think that says more about where Mayo is at, at the moment. You surely see why Leitrim folk were fearing for the worst today?" Ah Come on Square D why can't you say something positive about this very young team who ran themselves into the ground with a gusty display. Well done to the management too.Considering all the negative publicity and public ridicule over the last few weeks, they had a very motivated well drilled team on the pitch. joeman123 (Leitrim) - Posts: 555 - 19/04/2025 19:56:36 2602873 Link
