Replying To endgame:  "Roscommon U20s won the All Ireland semi final v Down in Breffni Park. No issue with the venue at all."
Out of interest will you be travelling to the game on Saturday? 7pm throw with the lack of public transport to Cavan town will be an issue I'm sure for plenty. Accommodation on Saturday night everywhere nowadays is way over priced.

Your a hundred percent right. I won't let buckeens from Leitrim denigrate the Ros. It's taken a while but they are showing respect now. Strange stuff from them. Thinking they've a more beautiful wife at home. Thanks again.

2 big games on successive Saturdays coming up for Ros teams.
Hopefully both still standing at the final whistle and looking forward to their next games.

I'll go to the game Drax but not stay over. Your minors are playing in Ashbourne. Are you happy with the venue. Tyrone minors looked very good in the Ulster Final.

Would have expected a county ground but a Leinster venue is the appropriate choice venue for a Connacht v Ulster match up.

Tyrone will be favourites but if Galway can play like they did in the 2nd half of the Connacht final the young Tribesmens will have a decent chance of pulling off an upset.

Enda Browne not named on the minor team for the Derry game. Huge loss to us.

Best wishes to our U17 footballers in the All-Ireland quarter-final tonight in Breffni Park. We are dealt a big loss to be without Enda Browne arguably our stand out player but hopefully we can overcome that loss to win.

End of the road for our U17 footballers. 6 point loss the two goals conceded proved telling and we should have defended much better. Shooting efficiency on frees and from play 2nd half hurt us and we very much looked like a team that had played just 1 competitive game in 2 months.

Thanks to all the players and management for the effort put in, disappointing tonight but 2026 will be looked back on as a Connacht winning year.

Disappointing for Roscommon and Galway well beaten too. The Connacht Council needs to look at the scheduling of the Connacht minor championship. Too long a gap between our provincial final and the All Ireland quarter final. Think that cost both Connacht teams today. Back to back Connacht minor titles for Roscommon but no repeat of 2006 in 2026. We do seem to struggle against Ulster teams at underage. All our eyes turn now to Clones next Saturday. It'll be some anti climax of a year if we're out of all championships by mid June.
