  • As you were once again

    As you were once again

    It’s a case of ‘if it aint broke leave it alone’ as Meath manager Robbie Brennan has kept faith with those who recorded a comprehensive victory over Kildare a fortnight ago ahead Saturday evening’s NFL Round 6 clash with Tyrone at Croke Park. That means that, having played a starring role when a late addition…

  • Mrs Joyce Farrell (Nobber) – R.I.P.

    Mrs Joyce Farrell (Nobber) – R.I.P.

    Sincere sympathy is extended to the family and friends of the late Mrs Joyce Farrell of Nobber Co Meath who passed on away yesterday (Thursday). The deceased, a native of Kingscourt in Co Cavan, was the wife of former Meath Minor and U-21 (now U-20) manager and senior selector Dudley Farrell and the mother to…

    Fergus Gibson would be unemployed if depending on the Tones

    Trying to predict the outcome of sporting events, or maybe anything in life is predicated on things going according to script, as it were. The thing is, though, time and experience are very much showing, though, that Wolfe Tones are very much of a mind to write and produce their own scripts. Going back as…

    Longwood Law abides as Moyfenragh advance

    MOYFENRAGH… 1-17 AN TUAISCEART… 1-10 Life taught me a long time ago never to judge a book by its cover. Sure my own journey about this big old ball is living proof of the futility of such a practice. Now read on… With no disrespect intended to anybody, it would be ventured a few of…

    Bru Na Boinne make light of numbers game but it’s all in vain

    An Tuaisceart…0-12 Bru Na Boinne…0-12 Dare it be said, Bru Na Boinne’s 12 Apostles almost replicated Dublin’s unforgettable feat of annexing Sam Maguire in 1983 minus three of their troops? If not that, it could at least be mused that it’s unlikely young Moynalty official Kieran Olwell will become as (in)famous as Antrim’s John Gough…

    CJH ensures Lough Crew top the poll on the first count

    Lough Crew…1-11 An Tuaisceart…0-13 A goal after three minutes from Oldcastle’s CJ Healy was ultimately the decisive factor as the Ballinlough/Moylagh/Oldcastle/St Brigid’s combination ensured their opponents blinked first in the battle of the unbeaten teams in the Dioralyte Regional Football Championships at Dunganny on Tuesday night. After his sparkling display last week, Sean Meade was…

  • Newman calls time on Royal service

    Newman calls time on Royal service

    Kilmainham’s Mickey Newman tonight announced his retirement from inter county football. The languid, accurate forward previously stepped away in 2020 in an effort to recover from a succession of injuries which blighted his career but returned to the fold last season. Very similar to Brian Stafford in style of play and place-kicking, Newman was part…

  • Plenty of positives but the ten year wait goes on

    Meath 0-19 Dublin 1-20 If one wanted to be straightforward about the meeting of the old rivals at Parnell Park tonight, already relegated Meath are still without a point in this year’s National League. And still a decade without a win over the boys in blue. However, when these two collide it’s generally anything but…
