Replying To S1234: "Lol must have touched a nerve. Do your talking on the pitch tommorow maybe as we will ." Yas didn't do much else on the pitch today Clare.
Men against boys really, and we had a Leaving Cert student playing!

Replying To Claretandblue: "The new structure is far from perfect and it seems certain there will be further changes next year if Congress pushes All Ireland finals back, the idea that our previous structure was the envy of counties elsewhere, there were loads of championship matches last few years that were tame affairs, little of the cut and thrust associated with championship football. Shandonagh vs Tubberclair last year was a shocking advertisement for the championship." Our resident County Board man, will try put a positive spin on things when the reality is they have failed the players and Clubs time and time again. You have highlighted 1 game out of 70 + Championship games but they were not very many games last year that were dead rubber. I seem to remember all 6 teams in Section A of Senior having something to play for going into the last round, plenty of "cut and thrust" actually. If you're going to come up with a new structure, come up with a new structure that's completely fair to a tiered system. It is not as if Senior B teams were making their presence felt in the knockouts. For the last 3 years, the Senior semi finalists were made up of teams competing in Section A, except for The Downs in 2024. The decisions made to change the structures were definitely not evidence based, there is more to this than meets the eye. There was no appetite for change, the meeting at the Park Hotel should have been enough to confirm this but instead they ignore the Clubs and players and use their own votes to push through with it, it's called executive aggrandizement. This scandal further demonstrates the growing disconnect between the Board and the Clubs. It obviously dictated the mood on the team bus going to Newry yesterday going by the first half performance. It was foolish thinking we were going to see a better future for Westmeath football with the change of leadership, going nowhere fast with this Circus.

That is a great showing from Longford today, away from home, in very challenging conditions. Up to 2nd now, with some much tougher opponents to come. However, regardless if promotion isnt attained, it would be great to see a fighting spirit from the young squad between now and the final game and providing competitive opposition at the very least. Lots being learned from this campaign it seems, which can only be a good thing going forward.

Replying To Alwaysencourage: "Cappagh park" Cappagh park would be ideal.
They tried that!
It's owned by the council. They weren't even allowed to put a fence around it or erect nets behind the goals.
Next??

Armagh looked to play on the edge today, a lot of late hits on Roscommon players going by the highlights. Was it like that at the game or TV showing it up worse than it was?

The thing I liked with McGrath in goal in the second half is twice the ball dropped short into his hands and immediately he played a nice kick pass to get the attack going. Particularly the Tony Brosnan shot that dropped short. He pinged a lovely ball 40 yards out to his left on to the chest and we were gone up the field, bypassing a bunch of the Kerry players who were inside the 45.

Replying To DundalkGael: "Sad to say I've just left Croke Park at half time. IMO a change in management is needed, Hasn't looked like we have had a plan in defence or attack for two and half games" The Meath team left at half time too....and still won.

Replying To Fionn: "Did I name players - I said the Squad....
Were you at the game last night.? We were terrible. Monaghan the worst team in Division 1 should have beaten us.
If you think we can beat Kerry next week... Really.??? I would be more than shocked...!
Do you reckon kerry are gonna come with an under strength team to play the Dubs in Croker ???
Have you seen the quality of some of the teams in Division 2. Clearly not...
At present I would put Tyrone, Derry and Meath ahead of us.
This Dublin squad at present is Division 2 standard.
We have one stand out player CON.
There is very little left in the tank of the players who have won it all for us.
It is what it is....." Yes I was at game and yes we were lucky.Monaghan could have scored a few goals but I think with the win under our belt we can drive on.I honestly think we will up our game for Kerry and if Ger selects the right team we can win.No one gave us a chance last year and we done them in their backyard.
IKerry can win but so can we.I wont be shocked either way.

Great result, 2nd in table.
What a first half, can anyone remember a better half by any Ros team?
Loved Mark Dowd's interview after, so level headed," its just Round 3 of the NFL".

I don't really understand what improvements people are seeing with Eamon McGrath in goal. The kick outs were still long and predictable, frees were missed, and he didn't handle a crucial high ball which led to a goal. At this stage it feels like it's "anyone but Gleeson", which is hard to take when he was the goalkeeper in two All-Ireland finals. McGrath seems to be getting praised for things Gleeson gets ridiculed for.

Delighted to pick up the valuable two points on offer. We had fluid, flowing football in the opening 35 minutes not to mention dominance of the kickout exchanges. It was dream stuff to be leading the All-Ireland champions of 2024 at half time by 12 points.
Different story 2nd half as Armagh threw all at us as they took over in midfield, we knuckled down then and got big impact off the bench especially the 3rd goal made by Duggan and scored by Carey. A key score to allow us to win by three.
2nd in the table after 3 games without Brigids players,McKeon Cox Harney exceeds expectations. Roll on Salthill next Saturday.

Thats an outrageeous statement, do you seriouly think the decision on the football championship last Thursday night had an impact on the performance in Newry. Please give the players some respect, the 2026 club championship was the last thing on the last thing on their minds.
A lot of clown talk on here about the county board, keyboard warriors if you ask me. At the end of the end of the day the best team in each club championship will win. Like it or not the board are a product of the clubs, these positions are ultimately ratified by the clubs. The them and us argument is a moot point.
People lashing out will that the COE will not get built either, all pub talk if you ask me. We are where we are because as a county we lack the ambition and desire to be better, end of story.

Replying To brayballer: "Dont be so negatve Fionn. Are you saying
David Byrne,Murchan,Howard,McMahonClancy,POCB,Scully,Bugler,Kilkenny,Basquel,Con,Costello,Small,Breathnach are division 2 standard?.
Not a hope.Yes we not the team we were but we still a division one team and on a given day can beat anyone.
Next weekend we can beat Kerry.Maybe not in championship but at mo we can.Kerry are missing players in crucial positions like midfield and half back line and their full back Foley got injured last night.
I think we can beat Kerry Roscommon and then we should be safe and no reason we cant take Armagh or Galway either.
I certainly tbink we will win at least two of the last four games." Cannot see Dublin beating Kerry unless Kerry put out a weaken team. Your going to have to beat Roscommon away, not an easy feat?

Replying To waynoI: "Hope everyone is well. Dubs are nowhere near good enough to be in the conversations for Sam but we had an amazing 10/12 years. A few years in the shadows now ahead but delighted with Ger Brennan at the helm. A great Dublin man" Good man Waynol - how is it going pal.?
Long time no hear....
Exactly - Ná bí brónach go bhfuil sé thart, bí sásta go bhfuil sé tarlaithe
Yes, Dubs fans need to be realistic... we are nowhere near where we were or where we need to be to win SAM.
I have no shame in saying where we currently rank or who is ahead of us.
We won 8 AI's in 10 years and 6 in a Row. Time for a bit of reality now.
Being in Division 2 for a year would do this new Dublin squad no harm imo.

Replying To dave1988: "Ya he is doing a great job and as you said he has never complained about missing at least ten players. I'm sure the Brigid's lads will be back for the Galway game but how can you drop anyone after the three brilliant performances we have put in. Mark has a tough job on his hands but it's a good thing" We were wiped at midfield in the second half. Plenty to work on but we have to be delighted with 4 points after three games minus the Brigid lads .Main thing is to stay up and build then towards the championship. Mark Dowd will have plenty of options for his starting 15 come championship. So far so good for the Strokestown man.
