The younger Fenagh lads will have endured the build-up, the match day tensions, the parade - all the hoo-ha and weathered the storm in a good fashion the last day. They've been in and played well in a county final so I'm confident they'll go into the replay conscious of the fact that they're the match of their opponents and will play to their full potential. BSOH are a fine team, bristling with talent and experience and won't be easily overcome but I'm hoping the County Board make the right decision and not plough ahead with it in a monsoon…… Boxtyeater (Leitrim) - Posts: 814 - 23/10/2026 18:00:33 2698380 Link
Replying To LeitrimBatman: "Have not heard anything re the replay surely the powers that be are not asleep at the wheel here, and look at postponing the game with the orange weather warning, double header with the Junior A final on Sunday seems like the only option for this weekend." Not possible, there will be 10,000 at the senior replay, I was talking to lots of people from bordering counties that are coming to Carrick to see it because they simply don't get to enjoy the quality we have in their own counties. No doubt everyone will have an eye on the Galway final also this weekend but there really is nothing there for us to worry about as the quality in Salthill will be poor fare.

One of the biggest crowds in recent years at a Leitrim Senior Final was back in 2018, when Mohill played Aughawillan in front of close to 4,000 people. If there are 3,000 at Páirc Seán tomorrow, I'd say they'll be doing well! - Leitrim_12 (Leitrim) - Posts: 102 - 24/10/2026 15:20:37 2698436 Link

Replying To meathbasedfan: "hearing Micky Graham is the new Longford Manager" It appears that Andy McEntee has actually gotten the Longford gig. Whether he can build on the progress under Solan is the burning question…. Boxtyeater (Leitrim) - Posts: 814 - 24/10/2026 17:07:10 2698448 Link

Our record at adult level bar kiltubrid in 2005 (that was a solid team) is abysmal but hopefully a few kinder draws combined with smaller more competitive championships will improve our fortunes in the coming years gaelsboy (Leitrim) - Posts: 853 - 24/10/2026 19:52:55 2698460 Link

These are where a Connacht could be won soon. Thought Allen Gaels should've done better last year in Connacht Intermediate seeing as they wiped the floor with everyone in Leitrim. The Junior A final looks strong enough this year, both are Intermediate level teams really. IronSleeve (Leitrim) - Posts: 100 - 24/10/2026 20:48:27 2698462 Link
