Replying To Htaem: "That's a good breakdown OLLIE, I remember all the meetings from 1998 onward but I was 1 back in 1989 so that I certainly don't recall. I didn't realize Louth had made 6 leinster semi's in the 90's either, yous must have been very close to making the break through, but it was a difficult time with Meath, Dublin, Kildare and Offaly all producing very talented teams that decade. As for Sunday, I think you're right, it could be a very good game with both teams seemingly on the up, certainly you'd hope we're both in better shape than last year." Jaysus Htaem you are only a pup. Louth's heartbreaking Leinster semi-final defeats in the 90's goes like this: In 1991 Laois beat Louth after a replay. That was the match with the infamous brawl. Meath beat Laois in the Leinster final that year. The Dubs beat Louth in 1992. The Dubs went on to win the Leinster against Kildare. The Dubs beat Louth in 1994. The Dubs beat Meath in the Leinster final that year. In 1996 the Dubs yet again beat Louth. Meath beat Dublin in the Leinster final. In 1997 which was probably the best opportunity for Louth to win a Leinster in the 1990's, Offaly beat Louth. Offaly beat a depleted Meath team in the Leinster final. In 1998 Meath beat Louth and Kildare beat Meath in the Leinster final in the same year. It would take Louth another 12 years to reach their next Leinster semi-final in 2010.

7 changes from team that played Louth last year, that is alot . Team is pretty much as expected with 3 positions up for grabs, power, toher and Newman miss out, but all will be used from bench. Cant wait excitement really building now. Hon the Royal royaldunne (Meath) - Posts: 19449 - 02/06/2017 07:20:06 1993354 Link
Replying To 11jm11: "Meath have more quality up front and that should be enough to see them over the line. However imo meaths midfield and back line is average. If louth can get a foothold at midfield i think we could have a good game on our hands." An average back line?? Hmm..

Replying To royaldunne: "Safe journey to you tomorrow Ollie and all going to game, I'm like a kid on Christmas eve :) I wont sleep tonight. Hon the Royal" You too Royaldunne. Same as myself. I won't sleep tonight. I will have to go down to the Bull and get some Guinness in to me and knock me out. Fair play to you Royaldunne. You might support the oule enemy but you are the most optimistic Meath supporter on here. I am lighting a few candles tonight. An Lu Abu!

Meath should be out of sight. But only 1 point up at half time. Still though look far more equipped to progress. Hon the Royal royaldunne (Meath) - Posts: 19449 - 04/06/2017 15:54:00 1994473 Link

Replying To waynoI: "any complaints about parnell park today?" If you read the designated thread I have been full of compliments for Parnell and their staff today. Compared to last year it was chalk and cheese. royaldunne (Meath) - Posts: 19449 - 04/06/2017 19:40:04 1994612 Link
Replying To royaldunne: "Most bizarre goal I have ever seen." Surely theres a better keeper in Meath than O'Rourke how many goals have came off bad kickouts, He gifted us a goal in the league two years ago with a short kickout gone wrong Cuckoosinging (Roscommon) - Posts: 992 - 04/06/2017 19:49:16 1994621 Link
