    Frustrated relief

    Dunboyne…4-15 Moynalvey…0-10 Chances are yours truly wasn’t the only one in these parts – or Moynalvey – in absolutely no mood for football on Friday night.

    Laois grab the momentum and the win as Meath crash to earth

    Meath… 1-07 Laois… 1-12 There are some lessons in life one simply has to learn the hard way. In all the years I’ve been doing match reports – either on the club’s behalf or my own – have I noted down a score before a shot was taken. Don’t do it, it’s a total jinx.…

    Kinsella kills off the contest with stellar first half

    Meath… 2-11 Carlow… 0-04 Dunshaughlin’s Ruairi Kinsella ended this Leinster U-20 FC Round 2 encounter in Ashbourne as a contest well before half time with a tremendous personal haul of 2-2.

    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. Unsurprisingly, the group is a mixture of the players who won the Leinster MFC in 2020 and those who retained that title the following year and added the Tom Markham Cup…

    Leonard sends Meath to the promised land

    Meath… 1-12 Tyrone… 1-11 Tommy Mahon, Benny Gartland, Patsy Duff, Brian Reilly, Oliver Harding, that was for you.

    Meath…3-08 Dublin…1-03 If, like me, you are superstitious in nature, the prospect of garnering a 13th Leinster MFC title in the county’s history will have been approached with quite a degree of trepidation. We should have feared not, now read on… To the utmost joy of many and the betterment of the county’s present and…

    Corcoran Shows His Class As holders Book Final Ticket

    Meath……1-15 Louth……1-11 Hughie Corcoran – remember the name.

With only three members of…
