    Jones return a needed lift for club and county

    St Peter’s, Dunboyne…2-11Moynalvey…2-11 On a weekend when reasons for cheer were as scarce for devotees of Meath football as hen’s teeth, the return to action of Ronan Jones as a second half sub was a telling boost for Dunboyne as they maintained their recent run of momentum in the FL Div. 1 when coming from…

    Job done, move on, start building

    MEATH… 6-22 LAOIS… 0-07 In such no-win situations, there’s only one thing a body can do – win. Tick the box and move on. If you do manage to win, you are only doing as would have been expected and if you don’t well, let’s not go there. So, credit to them, when Trevor Giles’s…

  • A time of opportunity rather than a problem

    A time of opportunity rather than a problem

    Transition. Movement. Change. Difference. Essentially, they all describe the same thing. But can have seismically different meanings for different people. Indeed, they can have vastly fluctuating connotations for the same people in differing circumstances. Even for yours truly. For instance, the notion of doing Transition Year after completing the Junior Cert. appeared to be a…

    As you were for Minors

    Meath Minor football manager Trevor Giles has kept the faith with those who lost out to Louth by the narrowest of margins and played amid horrendous conditions 12 days ago ahead of tonight’s Round 2 outing against Kildare at Fr McManus Park, the home of Skryne GFC. There are, however, a number of alterations to…

  • Meath go through the gears in second half to see off dogged Laois

    Meath go through the gears in second half to see off dogged Laois

    MEATH… 3-12 LAOIS… 0-10 The final score states there were 11 points between the sides at the end, but don’t fooled. Inclination might be to think that this was a fairly routine night’s work for Cathal O’Bric’s team, but it was anything but. Now, as if to directly contradict the above statement, Meath never looked…
