I wouldn't expect anything else from the Loughrea lads. Doing the right thing is not their way. Again a repeat, a devisive force in Galway hurling. We need to root out this negativity.

gaillimh 73, what is your problem with Loughrea and where are you from. This years game was played and the build up prior to the game was without the bitterness that was prevalent in years gone by but you seem to want to dig it out. Check out the posts from people from Loughrea and most congratulate Portumna on an excellent display. You're the one trying to create a divide for reasons I outlined under the SH rankings forum

Pity to see a great occasion now being tarnished by some inappropriate comments, thank god I was there on Sunday, and enjoyed the occasion immensely, and whatever is being said and written on this site is completely at odds with the conduct and attitude of both sets of fans on Sunday last, not one nasty word spoken. Perhaps some of these posters weren't present on Sunday, and are just letting off steam, which is a pity really.

I think we should just try fielding the Portumna side in the NHL to see how it works..

how many of the portumna team are going to be involved in the county panel next year? A great club team no doubt, especially if the go all the way in club series. Bhale i think have 6 on the kk panel. is the complete difference in class between portumna and the rest doing anything for ye at county level? I know nout port can do only win and it upto the rest to catch up, but just wonder what ye think...

E McEntee, Ollie Canning, Eoin Lynch, Kevin Hayes, Andrew Smith, Damien Hayes and Joe Canning are definites to be in squad, all were there last year and in my view all justify selection again. Niall Hayes was also there but I think he still has a bit to find for inter-county level. IMO. I think the young Dolphin lad is heading in the right direction but might be a year or two more before he is selected.

What you on about BIG.TOM as the Donoghue's who won with Athenry were born and bred in Kincoineron.............?

Is that the same AIB that we're bailing out BIG TOM? They're a real fine outfit to be quoting!

portumna are the best clud team to come out of galway.the traditional teams like athenry and sarsfield can't handle that either

Joe Joe ur right the phrase hurlers on the ditch is appropriate here.... Overtheborder,cant see why you post a comment when you obviously weren't there the night after the final in Portumna when the pub was full of the Port hurlers, anyway thats that said and oh ya BIG TOM may as well kill two birds with the one stone dont worry whether we choose it or born into this team we are enjoying our time at the top and dont plan on hangin up our boots just yet. Over and out roll on Dunloy- galway Abu

Speak for your self. You constitute one person not people. As for what you think, well if you agreed I would be worried. And while I have you, do you know anything about hurling, or is your dislike of portumna your only motivation for posting on HS. You need to vary your posts because you no longer antagonise, you now only bore.

Overtheborder are you saying that portumna didn't go to Loughrea after the countu final in 06 or this year? If you are talking about 06 you are most definitely wrong. If you are talking about this year, well as far as I know they were in Loughrea just last saturday night! Can you clarify what you mean't please?
