The weekend off is now behind us and so, once again, it’s all systems go ahead of a big Mayo match at the weekend. Our Round 4 game in this year’s National League is against Monaghan at St Tiernach’s Park in Clones on Sunday. Throw-in is 2pm and Wicklow’s Anthony Nolan is the ref. Although the Farney lads – with […]
It was contrasting fortunes for the two Mayo teams who were in action in the stormy weather this afternoon. The women’s encouraging start to this year’s LGFA NFL Division One campaign was bolstered by a gritty win over Waterford but the hurlers fell to a narrow NHL defeat to Wicklow, a loss that places their status in Division 2A in […]
Another weekend, another storm roaring in off the Atlantic. Will Storm Dennis prove as disruptive to fixtures over the next two days as Ciara was last weekend? I guess we’ll find out soon enough. This weekend’s a rest one for the lads in the National League and so, from a Mayo perspective, the matches of interest involve the women’s footballers […]
Mayo’s NHL Division 2A isn’t getting any easier. This afternoon they took the field against Antrim up at Fr Healy Park in Loughiel and it was always a big ask to expect anything other than a decisive win for the Glensmen. So it proved. The visitors did manage to claim the day’s first score but once Antrim settled into the […]
I know, I said I wouldn’t have the time to do this any more and I may not be able to do it after every game but here, later in the day than heretofore, is a run-down of the coverage on our opening League match of 2020, as well as reports on the other Mayo matches that took place this […]
It was a case of contrasting fortunes for the first two Mayo teams in action this weekend. The county’s U20 footballers rounded off a productive Development League campaign with an emphatic win over Louth in the final of the Leo Murphy Cup competition but the Mayo hurlers were well beaten by Kerry in their opening round NHL Division 2A fixture. […]
Over five months on from our final competitive outing of 2019 James Horan’s Mayo team tonight take the field in their first meaningful game of 2020. A tasty one it is too, with Donegal the opposition at MacCumhaill Park this evening in the opening round of this year’s National League Division One campaign. Ref David Coldrick is set to throw […]
Saturday night sees the long-awaited start of the National Football League – in which we open the defence of the title we won at Croke Park last March – but our Round 1 opener against Donegal at MacCumhaill Park in Ballybofey that evening isn’t the only Mayo-related action on this weekend. Far from it. In fact, there are no fewer […]
This coming weekend sees a raft of Championship matches taking place in both football and hurling. The county’s hurlers are in action on Sunday, as they play their first Group 1 tie in the Nicky Rackard Cup, a match that sees them up against Tyrone at Healy Park in Omagh (throw-in 2pm). Last summer proved a major disappointment for the […]
It’s been a punishing League campaign up in Division 2A for the county’s hurlers but it ended today on a high note. Over at McGovern Park in Ruislip this afternoon the hurlers recorded a 0-16 to 1-10 win over London, a result that ensures the retention of the county’s place in Division 2A once again next year, while consigning the […]
