Bowden strikes up the right Bru after a belter
BRU NA BOINNE…1-11 BOYNE VALLEY…0-14 If one was to go by team names alone, this second round Regional Football Championship encounter had all the makings of a local derby. That is to say, not much between the sides and a little bit of needle thrown in. However, geographically speaking they’re not actually that close to…

Harkin’s timely reminder to O’Rourke
Tara…1-09 Ardbraccan…0-06 A sparkling performance from Tara midfielder Eoin Harkin was the main talking point from this dour Brady’s Skoda Regional Football Championship clash at Dunganny on Tuesday evening.

Tully’s three pointer sets holders on road to repeat victory
BOYNE VALLEY… 1-08 TARA… 0-09 Football in Slane is on the up once again as evidenced by the emergence of players like Tadhg Martyn and Brayden Colfer on county underage teams and the fact was underscored still further when the Louth-border club’s Matt Tully turned in an outstanding display in the opening round of the…

Sideline Cuts – 29
SLEEPING GIANTS AWAKEN For very poignant reasons, on several occasions this year, the All Ireland winning Meath team of 1967 were brought to mind. This time round however, their mention is in a brighter context. Now read on… Peter McDermott’s team way back then were – unthinkable as it might seem now – backboned by…

Disappointing Kehoe conclusion in lunchtime shoot out
Meath… 0-18 Kildare… 2-24 Needing to win big in this lunchtime encounter at Dunganny, the last thing Meath needed was David O’Flaherty rifling to their net inside the first minute. Podge O’Hanrahan responded with two points for Meath, but unfortunately that was as good as it got for them. With James Burke in awesome form…
