Replying To OLLIE: " Replying To Monaghan Exile: "Assuming Leinster teams possibly played Championship matches in CP, would it be 2 of the following 3 ?...( or possibly all 3) <b>Mickey Kearns</b> (Sligo)..... won an all-star on 1st all-star team, before Sligo won Connacht in '75. <b>Andy McCallin</b> (Antrim) ... again on the 1st all-star team in '71 <b>Paddy Moriarity</b> (Armagh) ...on '72 team, won his 1st Ulster in '77, along with another all-star. I have no idea, if any of the above played NFL or Railway cup in CP, before gaining all-stars."</div>Them three lads would of played in Croke Park with their respected provinces in the Railway Cup." Andy McCallin did indeed. P Moriarity was a teenager when winning his all-star in '71. Ulster won the Railway cup in '71, PM was not even on panel for that team. (remember Railway Cup was played before Chmpshp). Nor was he on 1970 panel. Armagh teams were not contesting latter stages of NFL around then, nor did any Armagh Colleges feature in the Hogan cup around then. Armagh won Ulster minor in '68, but were beaten in Semi (obviously in CP). I cannot find any info on that team, but as PM was a teenager in '71, it is very unlikely he was on the '68 minor team!..... Maybe some of the Armagh folk can clarify? Monaghan Exile (Monaghan) - Posts: 447 - 04/07/2016 12:56:52 1876013 Link
