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…

A giant step on a journey still in its early stages
MEATH…2-22 OFFALY…0-18 This day seven years ago was obviously Easter Sunday. The day Meath defeated Fermanagh in Pairc Tailteann to seal a return to Div. 1 of the National Football League. The reason I know it had to be the chocolate holiday is because I was in Fairyhouse getting updates via WhatsApp as Andy McEntee…

Going out the same way they came in?
Hardly surprisingly, the Meath senior football management have decided to stick with the winning formula which sees them within touching distance of getting out of Div. 2 of the National Football League for the first time since 2019.

A bunch of Westmeath bachelors in a different sense
EXCLUSIVE A few weeks back in this space, mention was made of the fact that one had been accosted in an online forum for, once again, pointing out the link between the odious split season and player loss due to emigration.

A change between the posts
Manager Joe Cowley has made one to the team which defeated Longford two weeks ago ahead of tonight’s Leinster MFC last eight encounter against Offaly at Pairc Tailteann.

With Captain Mainwairing’s torch we can see the light
MEATH…1-25 OFFALY…0-21 When under the black cloud that is depression, sometimes something as simple as a comedy on the television can start the engine running to start the wheels turning again. However, where people of a certain age group might go for an episode of Friends or The Big Bang Theory or, Lord help us…
