Same force head for the Faithful County
Having hit a dozen goals in their last two outings, Meath’s Minor footballers face into their third consecutive game on the road with an unchanged ensemble from that which defeated Hugh Kenny’s Wicklow in Aughrim seven days ago.

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…

Forget about a day like this, how about a week?
“We’ll drink to those who are here today, and remember those who are gone”. So begins one of the verses in the beautiful, moving number penned by Charlie Walls Lord knows how long ago, The Big Tree which has very much become Dunboyne’s ‘national’ anthem. Especially since being eternally enshrined as such on Mick McAuley’s…
