Meath v Fermanagh

(Oldest Posts First) - Go To The Latest Post


As above, if coming in the M3, exit at Navan north and the easiest way to explain things is just to follow the "H" signs for the hospital (park nearby) and you'll be very close to where you need to be and able to get away quickly after the match.

Replying To Htaem:  "If you're coming down the M3 and take the Navan north exit in towards the town you can park on the N51 (which is the road into Navan) along the footpath over the bridge, or if you're a bit earlier you can park along the R161, which is closer to the pitch again. Both are less than a 10mins walk to the ground and it's much easier to get away than if you go into the car park.

The car park is fine in fairness though, you'll be waiting a bit to get out of it but it does move."
the library isn't a bad spot either.

I too am surprised I am tempted to say that team will not start but that is not the way Andy works.
I will take a punt and say James will play for power and Eamon Wallace may start but will he done well in cork he made a mistake for one of the late points so I got with just the one change

Replying To gotmilk:  "Lads handiest place to park if you're coming in from the Cavan side?"
Gotmilk park in O'Mahony car park beside pt , it can be a bit slow getting out, but close to ground (right beside) and you can have a 7up in O'Mahony club house before .

Yeah strange one alright, I don't think he was named in the programme last week but he was there and Joe was the sub keeper last week so he must not be on the panel for today either.

Fancy Fermanagh to win this one. Hope I'm wrong. Meath still very fragile and less than convincing in recent games

Don't know how bad fermanagh are but we hammered them today forwards were possessed today hunting in packs all over backs like a rash menton was good Mickey burke played well keoghan leniahan Mc Mahon Sean Tobin played well and worked like a dog of Sullivan did well por caught some great balls our backs did well good to see power sitting back making sure we had two on one all the time simple stuff but not done in the past for anyone not at the game the tackling by meath and the pressure applied was at a level I have not seen meath play in years seriously impressed. But when we had the wind we didn't use it as well as we could this should have been a cricket score it was men against boys I know this was only fermanagha but the team stepped it u a gear today and anybody not a fan of Mc entee couldn't help but be impressed I'm not one to get carried away and we wont win Sam but we are going in the right direction

Yeah I know, I thought he wasn't going to be the sub keeper for Meath today but he was. He has started playing well at full forward again.

Great win but Fermanagh weren't great, I still think Division 1 is a year too early for us but Galway will probably beat Kildare anyway. Forde will be a massive loss if the injury is as bad as it looks. Biggy was quiet but did work hard. And even though Fermanagh were poor and playing against the wind it is a positive we restricted them to 2 points in the 2nd half.

Definitely improvements being made but still a good bit more to be done. Encouraging signs!

Very wrong! Fermanagh were very poor but we did very well. Great day for a game of ball. Conditions much more suited to Meath.

Enjoy your chicken!

Good all round performance, we tackled much better and kicked some lovely scores, Fermanagh were disappointing though, never got going.

At least now we don't have to worry about relegation, but are we still in with an outside chance of promotion? If we beat Clare and Kildare beat Galway then do we go up on head to head or is it score difference? Only thing is Galway and in particular Clare have a lot to play for so it's very hard to see us going up at this stage anyway.

You hit the nail on the head there matthematx. I can't remember Meath forwards putting in a defensive display like years.
