Donegal chaos continues as Carr faces for the road
Exactly what caused the turmoil currently engulfing Donegal football will surely emerge with the fullness of time but the chaos has reached something of a nadir given the news which has emanated from Tir Chonaill this evening. Highland Radio began reporting the following around lunchtime – “It seems Paddy Carr has resigned as Donegal Senior…

Spuds are only as good as what you serve with them
Meath…1-11 Dublin…2-19 When Sean Boylan took over as Meath manager in October of 1982, the Royal County hadn’t beaten Dublin in quite some time. Whether it was quite as long as is the current chasm I am unsure, but, in an effort to re-invigorate his then charges in readiness for the battle with the two…

ST PETER’S GAA FOOTBALL BULLETIN – 17/3/23
With it being the first weekend of club hurling action in the county, it’s a quiet one on the football front, though our two Minor teams do belatedly get their seasons underway and there’s also the small matter of a certain local derby in the National Football League in which our club will be very…

A handful of changes ahead of battle Royal
Colm O’Rourke and his fellow mentors have made five changes to the side which drew against Limerick ahead of tomorrow’s eagerly awaited clash with Dublin in the penultimate round of fixtures in Div. 2 of the Allianz NFL at Pairc Tailteann.

Meath self destruct in derby disaster
Meath… 1-12 Louth… 1-15 I only wish our manager’s optimism in his post match comments after Meath had somehow contrived to throw away a hard earned front foot position against Louth in Round 4 of the Allianz NFL at Pairc Tailteann could be shared. When asked by Brendan Cummins about looking down the table rather…

The versatile Flynn makes his…

Charlie breaks the curse of the Featured Photo as promotion push goes on
Meath…1-23 Donegal…0-16 Thank you Charlie Ennis. You have hopefully broken the curse of being the featured photo on http://www.boylantalkssport.com whilst also keeping Meath’s push for promotion out of Div. 2B of the Allianz NHL firmly on track. Allow me to explain… The first half of the above, that is. You see, whenever I’m working on…

One change for Meath hurlers
The Meath hurling team to take on Donegal this afternoon (Saturday) shows one change from that which overcame a stern test in Sligo last weekend. As was the case that day also, the alteration is enforced, due to the unavailability of Kyle Donnelly. The versatile Damien Healy slots into the effected berth on the half…

Duggy makes the difference as Royals rally for draw
Meath…0-09 Galway…0-09 The above headline might give the impression that it was the Davy Nelson’s side who equalised – which wasn’t the case – but given the way the Connacht side dominated for long spells over the hour, it’d be ventured the locals will be glad to have got something from their third Lidl Ladies…

A lot done, more to do
Meath… 4-08 Clare… 0-16 Not only was the above one of the greatest political slogans of all time, it also sums up Meath’s positioning in Div. 2 of the Allianz NFL after two rounds perfectly. After last week’s terrific trip to Cork, producing as good if not better again looked like an onerous task. However,…
