Following Mayo's footballers
As we start out on the journey in the 2013 Championship, it worthwhile, I think, casting our collective minds back to last September. Aside from the match itself, what I remember most clearly from September 23rd, 2012, was the defiant attitude shown by James Horan, his players and supporters at the post-match banquet. Sure, we [...]
While most attention is, understandably, being focused on our senior championship clash with Galway on Sunday, it’s worth bearing in mind that we have two teams in action at Pearse Stadium that afternoon. The curtain raiser in Salthill on Sunday is the Connacht Junior football final against Sligo (throw-in 2pm) and details of the team [...]

This news was confirmed by County Board PRO Aidan McLoughlin in the following terms: Andy has [...]
The championship season is upon us once more and I’m delighted to welcome JPM back into the guest slot to preview the key provincial tussles that are in store in this year’s summer campaign. One of the most notable features from this year’s League was the level of competitiveness that was apparent throughout the competition. [...]
Photo: @MayoGAA The County Board’s well attended opening evening at McHale Park earlier on this evening seemed to go very well, if all the photos tweeted by @MayoGAA, @mayo_mick and others are anything to go by. Fair play to James and the lads for giving so generously of their time for the event and well [...]
The pre-Salthill press night was on in Breaffy yesterday evening and at it James had, according to this report in today’s Irish Times, something to say on the subject of goals. The report states that when the topic of our two goals scored over the course of the league campaign was brought up, James was quick [...]
