Replying To KillingFields:  "Nonsense. every right minded irish man cheers on england if it is a better result for Ireland than a win for englands opponent."
It was doubly pleasurable. England and West England beaten in one glorious kick worthy of the Pope Keaveney.

Allez les Bleus.

You're always the first man on here moaning when things don't go well, you were the same too when Monaghan were well ahead at half time in Croker last year. Shocking conditions for goalkeepers yesterday and that played a big part in the kickouts as well as our lack of movement.

Disappointed when so close early in 2nd half plus a few very frustrating moments like Jamie for goal cconor drop short.
But we had luck in armagh and galway games so we can't complain considering last few games we missing 4 starting forwards plus patton.
Nice to give those monaghan lads a thumping now. They will be in division 2 or 3 for plenty years now and soon to be ranked just above antrim and fermanagh in ulster.

Replying To Magpie2:  "Ha, telling other people to grow up. Nobody
hates France by hoping England win and we get the big prize. Simple as.
Or is that beyond your understanding
Normally it's customery for us to cheer on other teams playing against the old enemy.
Personally I don't. It's not because I like them. It's because I don't believe in harbouring old antiquated memories of the past.
The three organisations I mentioned as carrying out atrocities were listed by me in no particular order. I could have named them in reverse just as easily. Violence is barbaric and criminal no matter who carrys it out. Families have been destroyed by all sides during the awful conflict.
It aways amuses me to see Irish guys getting emotional and upset when " their team" get beaten. I'm talking about Man united, Liverpool? Chelsea, Man City or Spurs . All of those are English teams with some English born players.
Then come the internationals and the same guys will be screaming for any team that the English are up against. I fail to understand the logic in that.
Perhaps their is a need for people with narrow minds to GROW UP."
It's not beyond anyone's understanding that if Ireland were good enough to win the " Big Prize" they would have beat France on the first weekend. Simply really and not hard to understand. As for your foreign game over the water, I'll watch but makes no difference to me who wins. Give me Carlow v Fermanagh any day compared to that other rubbish.

Replying To Mugatay:  "Great result. Fairplay for turning it around. Couldn't make it but sounded like a completely different approach.
Its a long shot but not beyond possibility- i may be wrong but:
Beat Carlow by 10pts
WW win/draw v LD
Lon v Antrim draw
WD beat Tipp or Tipp win by less than 5.

If Barry is badly injured then pass no heed to any of the above ."
Head to heads come into play as far as I know so I'd be thinking Tipperary will scupper any chance of promotion with a win at Waterford. We wouldn't deserve it anyhow but we have lots to work towards for 2027 assuming we keep everyone together.

Well done to all players and management on Sunday. One thing I believe is we need to play in division 1 for 3 to 4 years for us to really challenge in championship. Division 1 is where younger players develop to the best of their ability and consistent performances come from. One thing that people outside of roscommon don't realise is we had 11 or 12 debuts this year which is massive for big counties never mind roscommon . So we definitely have made progress

Congratulations to team and management on staying in division 1 for another year. It can only get better for this panel of players to have stiff competition again next year. Remember we were favourites for the drop with ever pundit in the county. Castlebar is a free shot next Sunday as it's unlikely Kerry and Donegal will slip up if they really want to be in the final. Would like to see more game time given to a few fringe players to see how they handle it. An injury free panel is hoped for as the championship nears. Some outstanding displays against a very good Donegal team in atrocious weather conditions would give you some belief that good things can happen this year.

Most gritty and determined performance by roscommon yesterday against the elements and donegal momenteum. Alot of players stepped up big time but still lots of work to be done. Great achievement by players and management

Thought that was a strange comment myself mickcunningham. Wexford and Westmeath is the only game that really matters for both counties next weekend . Its a real 50/50 game in my opinion

Good to see we enter the final round of fixtures with it all to play for across the 4 divisions

Dublin head to Galway needing a win and a bit of luck to avoid the drop. You'd expect Donegal will beat Monaghan to book their place in the final. Mayo or Roscommon easily could join them if Kerry can't navigate a tricky trip to the Athletic Grounds.

Division 2 is probably the most fascinating, Meath and Cork know what they need to do, and it's in their hands. Win or draw and they go up. Cork have a very tough trip to Omagh ahead of them, and they'll be getting flashbacks from the Derry game a few weeks ago.

A Tyrone win put Cork in a lot of trouble, their score difference means they lose every 3 way tie, and with Derry and Louth likely to win, they have to get a result in Omagh. More straight forward for Meath, any result against relegated Offaly will see them over the line. They have the head to head on Louth and Derry and are healthy on score difference too. I'd say at this stage Derry and Meath are the ones I'd pick to go up. Louth are there too, but they need a lot to go right for them.

Kildare and Cavan will be battling for their lives, hard to see Kildare turning Louth over based on what they've done so far.

Down again far too good for anyone in Division 3. Straight shootout for promotion between Wexford and Westmeath next weekend, would be good for Wexford football to see them back at a good level again. Leinster football looked dead and buried a few years ago, some turnaround.

London could do the unthinkable and get promoted next weekend too, win and they've got a great shout if luck goes their way.

After 9years up and down in league finals and semis I myself have no heed in finals or semis in the league
Our job is done.
Next week is a glorified challenge and we should play anyone that needs game time and no one else so close to what hopefully will be a interesting championship run for us.

Definitely not, perfect Saturday for Ireland, Ireland win Triple Crown and England beat, and with the last kick of the game makes it even better. They can stick their swing lows.

Replying To Kickitout:  "Happy with win but thought Galway should have kicked on and try win by more unless I'm reading it wrong if Armagh beat Kerry ( I think they will at home ) Galway can loose by 3 and stay up loose by 4 and they gone I might be wrong with that ,"
Correct. Would have settled for any win this morning but looking back some bad decisions cost us not taking opportunity to win by more and giving us a real buffer against Dublin.

Replying To Seanfan:  "Great showing today, great response to the awful showing v Dublin.
Hopefully Ruairi Fallons injury not a serios one.
The lads coming off the bench made a great contribution.
Hopefully we go all out next Sunday although with objective attained might we just give a run to the panel?"
Go for it I'd reckon. Can't bate winning games.

An exciting finale to D4 awaits next Sunday. It's wide open with a couple of serious meetings.
The WW - LD match has all at stake as has ANT - LDN. It's odd to think that 9 points would get you promoted.
