    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.

    Lenihan the difference as Dunboyne get desired start

    Dunboyne… 2-14 Seneschalstown… 0-12 A Tailteann Cup medal, a wedding ring and the small matter of a honeymoon – it’s been some couple of weeks for Donal Lenihan. Now read on… The good vibes continued for the accurate forward tonight in Dunsany as he hit 1-10 when Ger Robinson’s men opened their SFC Group B…

  • A homegrown All Ireland success if ever there was one

    Meath… 2-17 Westmeath… 4.05 I have a few vague but treasured memories of the aftermath of Meath’s All Ireland win of 1988.
