ziggy take it easy there now, Ratoath may have a good team and Donaghmore may have blown up unexpectedly this year but I don't think ratoath would keep the ball kicked out to them. Uncle_Fester (Meath) - Posts: 217 - 25/09/2015 10:18:56 1792200 Link 0 |

It's ratoaths to lose if they play to 85% they have it and will do grand at senior in 2016. Nobber have a chance but it depends on ratoath not firing on all cylinders glenny (Meath) - Posts: 1108 - 27/09/2015 09:40:03 1792666 Link 0 |
One thing I've learned from seeing Ratoath teams in county finals is that we rarely win it easily. Even in last year's U21 final when we were 9 up at half time and cruising the team let NOM back into the game in the second half. Ratoath being red hot favourites for this day week means nothing. Nobber have all the experience of being here before and that will be invaluable. They've also beaten Ratoath twice this season (albeit Ratoath were missing their county players in both games).

Say MOD will hope rataoth win easy as let's be honest with 5 senior county, 3 inter county juniors and an u 21 player if they can't account for an aged nobber team it won't say much for Meath football. Adamski (Dublin) - Posts: 339 - 27/09/2015 21:06:21 1792829 Link 0 |
Nobber will be waiting in the long grass waiting for us , They have a few years senior experience and are hardy hoors lagoreX (Meath) - Posts: 220 - 28/09/2015 13:59:54 1793106 Link 0 |

Very presumptuous there Brian. You cannot make a conjecture like that and slag MOD off based on what you think he might do or not do. oldsam_newsam (Meath) - Posts: 638 - 29/09/2015 11:39:34 1793494 Link 0 |
Nothing straight forwad about this game and all the points made about Nobber's experience, the ability of Brian Farrell and the fact that they have already beaten Ratoath this year are points well made. I do think Ratoath will win and I certainly hope they win but this will not be easy and I havent spoken to anyone from Ratoath that thinks this wil be anything but a tough hard fought game Richieq (Meath) - Posts: 3734 - 29/09/2015 12:51:24 1793575 Link 0 |
I'm afraid its not BS at all Brian. You certainly are one of the more balanced posters on here,but if you look back through any threads that have involved Ratoath in the past year or so, there is a hell of a lot of petty begrudgery about them, and about the number of players they have on the county panel. That's unfortunate, buts its what I have been observing over the past year or two. And they generally follow a bit of a pattern: anfearbeag (Meath) - Posts: 1134 - 29/09/2015 13:23:37 1793611 Link 0 |
Two days to go and I've already got the nerves. Weather is a bit iffy. Rain is set to arrive Sunday afternoon/evening so it could have an effect on the game. Ample amount of flags and bunting around the village. Donaghmore/Ashbourne also have a message of support up. Ratoath Royal (Meath) - Posts: 1362 - 02/10/2015 12:07:22 1795104 Link 0 |

Ratoath by 8 or so, their quick forwards will be too much for the Nobber full back line. Goals win games. RedMeath12 (Meath) - Posts: 117 - 02/10/2015 14:39:29 1795204 Link 0 |

So anyone who gives Ratoath credit has to be from Ratoath? ziggy32001 (Meath) - Posts: 8354 - 02/10/2015 20:23:20 1795308 Link 0 |
