Mayo's Andy Moran and Gerard McCartan of New York during the Connacht SFC clash at Gaelic Park
The 2019 football championship got underway yesterday and there were expected wins for Mayo and Galway but the Tribesmen didn't have it all their own way in Ruislip...
Just wasn’t to be today for our lads - still tremendously proud of the hard work and effort by players and management over the last few months. Great to see more and more of our native players taking the field as well! Best of luck @MayoGAA #GAA pic.twitter.com/uk3k6IObuZ

Surely there d be no harm in giving #NewYorkgaa a home venue qualifier and if they win give them another one. Not one county would be upset having to go to New York for a qualifier. #gaa #mayo

Hopefully a second half to match the first from @LondainGAA @Kill_Butler6 will be hard stopped when his tail is in the air. https://t.co/i1pTfEb67G

The passing of Eugene McGee will leave a huge void. An ability to weigh you up within seconds. Blunt, honest and didn’t suffer fools. A unique Longford man of great integrity and achievement in the worlds of sport, journalism and business. A rare character. Rip.

On the morning of the 82 All Ireland a journalist asked Eugene how badly #Offaly wanted to win. He replied "there's men in that dressing room who haven't had a pint since last Wednesday night! #RIPEugene pic.twitter.com/XH8KddJYdD

When most clubs are judged by how many county titles they have won or how many county players they’ve produced, stuff like this makes me very proud to be from Raheny, and play for @RahenyGAA https://t.co/9L2cQ5bmeb
