Replying To Sligonian:  "Another great win, Rice will be not easy in the final but Attractas just need give it everything and not give Rice an inch

Final is March 3rd Saturday, hopefully be a big Sligo support there, best of luck"
They just need to wait until rice run out of steam!

Agreed Sligonian. We need to start winning these. I' not sure whats wrong with our boys that they just draw blanks on final days. St Attracta's just never performed and I'm sure they will regret that for a long time. There has to be something mentally instilled in Sligo's mentality.

Summerhill juniors lost by a point today in Connacht B final some outstanding performances in a thrilling game, definitely be optimistic after juveniles and juniors performance in 24 hours.

Great win for the Hurlers 4-14 to 2-19 in the lory Meagher away to Lancashire, there's a great video of Keith Raymond by Atlantic Light Productions just released, worth a watch

Great win as right, considering Lancashire bet them well in the league and the pitch they played on was far from ideal. Great to see lots of young lads coming through and playing yesterday. Also great to see gerry o kelly lynch playing the 2 codes and some say the dual days are over!

Sligonian, I'm interested to know if you think this increase in the profile and promotion of hurling in the county is a good thing. Is it affecting football within the club and county? O'Kelly Lynch and Weir decided to play for the hurlers over the footballers lately for senior and under 20 teams. Ever since hurling became popular in West Sligo, football in that area has declined. No team playing senior football this year and the once proud and competitive Easkey now in the junior grade. Is there a link there?
