Mayo are in the midst of a tightly compressed series of National League Division One games right now and, as often is the case at this time of year, there are positives and negatives to how the county’s senior team has performed so far. James Horan has his hands full at the minute but, despite this, the Mayo manager took time out […]
It’s always with a degree of sheepishness that, on those occasions (which, thankfully, are infrequent enough) when we take a bit of a mauling, my attention turns to doing the post on our Man of the Match for the offending game. But, as I usually tend to flag up front at such times, the purpose of this exercise is to […]
Let’s get this one over as quickly and painlessly as possible. My thanks, once again, to Fergal for gathering the links together as otherwise I’d be here suffering an alarming attack of the Clones flashbacks. So I would. Right, here are the links of the match coverage on the Monaghan game, with, for good measure, a report on the hurlers’ […]
Mayo travelled to Clones on Sunday seeking to claim two valuable League points but, coming up against a well-drilled and hard-working Monaghan outfit, they were forced to come away from this Round 4 game empty-handed. With just three points on the board heading into the final three matches, James Horan’s team now face a battle to avoid the drop from […]
We came into this game at Clones this afternoon with plenty of positive hopes about getting the kind of result that could kick-start this League campaign for us. We’re coming out of it, however, with the most profound doubts about how we stand and what direction we’re heading in. Well matched throughout the first half, Monaghan were starting to get […]
We’re racing through this year’s League campaign and by this evening four rounds of matches will be played. Today’s clash with Monaghan up in Clones is no more or no less important than any of our other Division One matches this year but, all the same, a win today would represent a significant statement by us. We’re underdogs heading to […]
It was announced a short while ago that the LGFA NFL Division One match against Cork is now OFF. The venue had been switched to Mallow but the incessant rain clearly has won out on this occasion and so the game has had to be postponed. Here’s the official announcement. ? POSTPONED Sunday’s @lidl_ireland National League Division 1 fixture between […]
Given the incessantly inclement weather we’ve been enduring in recent weeks, late venues changes for matches have understandably become more common. Once again there are a few to report this weekend, with tomorrow’s LGFA game against Cork and the NHL one against Offaly now going ahead at altered locations. For the women, the switch sees their LGFA NFL Division One […]
All thoughts are, I know, currently focused firmly in the direction of the border and Sunday’s NFL Round 4 meeting with Monaghan at St Tiernach’s Park in Clones. That’s a big one for us but so too is the clash the following weekend back on home turf at MacHale Park against All-Ireland finalists Kerry. To tie in with the Kerry […]
