    An all too familiar feeling for Dunboyne

    St Peter’s, Dunboyne…1-21St Colmcille’s…2-20 (A.E.T.) Dunboyne produced some wonderful phases of play at times in the latest clash between the familiar foes in the All County IFC semi final at Tony Callaghan Park, Duleek on Sunday evening but, in a scenario that has been an all too familiar one for the club’s teams this season…

    Gaffney goal gives gutsy Royals another Croker date

    Meath…1-11 Westmeath…0-10 Amy Gaffney’s late goal put the seal on another terrific Thurles day for the Camogie stars of Meath as they saw off the gritty challenge presented by neighbours Westmeath in this GlenDimplex All Ireland Intermediate Camogie semi final at FBD Semple Stadium.

    McCarthy’s men ready for trip into the midlands

    Meath manager John McCarthy has announced his starting 15 and panel for tomorrow night’s Leinster U-20 FC opening round encounter against Longford at Clonguish.

    Slow Start undoes Meath despite gutsy effort

    Meath…1-11 Roscommon…1-15 The records will unfortunately show that Meath slumped to their second Allianz League defeat against Roscommon but that would only tell a fraction of the story about this tempestuous encounter at stormy Pairc Tailteann. One thing is for sure, it would be very easy to figure out why people in a certain part…

    Brave Display Points To Better Days Ahead

    Meath…..1-13 Dublin……2-16 Tears. The first reaction that comes to mind. Emotion for very personal reasons, immense pride at a performance woven thick with the acrylic of the famed Meath never-say-die attitude and then finally heartache at what felt like one that certainly got away. Items two and three are what need to be focused upon…
