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.

Believe half of what you see and a lower percentage of what you hear
On paper at least, Meath have made only one change ahead of Sunday’s NFL Div. 2 Round 4 meeting with Cork at Pairc Ui Rinn. But it would be no shock whatsoever if there’s at least one more to go along with it. For what it’s worth, as per what has been published, the one…
