    Scores like buses as Tara secure title tilt

    Tara…2-02 An Tuaisceart…0-07 Whether Tara manager Ger Robinson and his fellow mentors have somebody like renowned statistician and analyst Ray Boyne working with them is unknown. If they have, I would love to be a fly on the wall for the de-brief after last night’s Regional Football Championship semi final against Brian Farrell’s An Tuaisceart…

    The best advertisment for the Regionals so far

    Tara… 3-12 Blackwater… 2-13 Thirty scores between two teams in what was meant to be a ‘meaningless’ match certainly knocked the theory of it being so on the head.

The latest edition of our sports show is essentially a follow up to last week’s episode revolving around Adult Football Finals weekend in Meath. A few days of highly mixed emotions for St Peter’s, Dunboyne in particular but it was very much…

  • A way forward based on continuity

    There was much conjecture surrounding the ‘debate’ involving Pat Gilroy and Andy McEntee thrown onto The Sunday Game in a scatter-gun manner at the end of last year.

  • You know you’re getting old when the young ones are retiring

    Some of you are probably getting cheesed off with yours truly writing about how Covid-19 has made me feel for the best part of a year now. But, understand that writing about it all is my best and to a certain extent only way of getting through any trauma which life throws in this direction.…
