Sean McManus – A Tribute
It’s one of the lesser spotted potholes on the road to dealing with the loss of a loved one but, for me at least, was one of toughest aspects of dealing witb my own father’s passing. Going through the personal effects and deciding what to keep and what to let go of. To that end,…

Meath Club Championship Draws 2025
At the time of typing, none of the National Leagues at inter county level nor the league or Cup competitions at club level have thrown in for the 2025 season, yet last night (Thursday) the draws were completed for the adult club championships in football and hurling. They are scheduled to commence in early August.…

There’s no instruction manual for captaincy
It’s funny, the things that pop into your mind when looking for solace. Actually, that’s not the term. It’s more reassurance. Hope. I’m sure, like me, there were plenty of people a tad surprised at Robbie Brennan’s nomination of Eoghan Frayne and Ciaran Caulfield as captain and vice captain respectively for his first campaign working…

Motive and opportunity to be a proper Club(ber) fan
Anyone who has ever waited for a phone call regarding the well being of a loved one in hospital – which is surely all of us at some stage – knows that convulsion of emotion between relief, joy and utter terror. Now consider that the said post prodecure phone call was three hours after the…

Take your points and the goals won’t matter
MEATH…2-12 KERRY…3-05 The equation was simple for the Meath camogie team at Rathmolyon on Saturday afternoon, and in the end so was the solution.

An epic and equally upsetting weekend
If anybody has become bored or annoyed by my re-posting match text commentary in recent weeks I apologise. It’s my way of dealing with Fear Of Missing Out (FOMO) and/or separation anxiety, whichever you want to call it. From not being able to attend matches it is desired to be at. Without wanting to play…

Another hurdle crossed as Meath Croker bound
Meath… 2-23 Wexford… 0-12 To firstly tidy up the nuts and bolts of the situation, any day you kick 2-23 and keep a clean sheet has to be regarded as a good day’s work. Anyone scoffing ‘it was only Wexford’ obviously hasn’t been following the formbook lately. This was the same Wexford team which scored…
