Of course they were more a regional team in the past than a club, drawing in players from Glenamaddy, Williamstown and any other place they could get them from. Mountbellew were similar in the past taking in the best players from the surrounding area. To be fair Dunmore provided some of Galways best ever players so I hope they make it back to the senior ranks. Crafty - actually down through the years Dunmore was a notoriously Towny club - maybe not now. Pulling lads from glenamaddy or Williamstown would be a big No No and would not sit well with them (I think there is just one exception to that). When Dunmore were winning county titles you were from the town or the parish and you most likely went to Jarlaths. If they did pull lads from the surrounding area , they would be a different club then they are today!!!" Bosco McDermot from Williamstown and the Geraghtys from Glenamaddy all played with Dunmore. A little Geography lesson for you Gmon Belclare and Corofin are the one parish and played together for years with very little success." I was insinuating that they should be two clubs with the amount of footballers they have!! Fair play to them tho they put in more work than the majority of clubs in Galway hence their success."]Who cares...

In fairness, if Galway draw or, heaven forbid, get beat on Sunday we may as well chat about geography on here, as it could be a while before we see any IC action.... streaker (Galway) - Posts: 528 - 09/06/2017 17:01:50 1997379 Link

looks like all senior and intermediate games are off for this weekend. No longer on Galway website. I hope I'm wrong. Total farce if they are called off. Pookie_Monster (Galway) - Posts: 32 - 12/06/2017 10:54:31 1998336 Link
fixtures are normally released on Tuesday. would be madness to call of club championship. although its also madness that some clubs will be out of challenging for championship honors in mid june, but that is a separate issue altogether haha mkeary5 (Galway) - Posts: 27 - 12/06/2017 12:43:32 1998419 Link

Really exciting round of action in the intermediate champ. Here's how the bookmakers see things as we approach the weekend. Oranmore 4/9 - Glenamaddy 9/4 St.Brendans 2/5 - Clifden 3/1 Oughterard 10/11 - Athenry 11/10 Cárna 7/2 - K/C 1/3 Aran 7/4 - Dunmore 1/2 Williamstown 5/4 - Ballinasloe 5/6 Spideal 9/4 - Headford 1/2 Claregalway 2/5 - Menlough 5/2 There's definitely some money to be made looking at the above. Oranmore represent real value even at 4/9 imo. NathinButSteel (Galway) - Posts: 115 - 15/06/2017 11:10:46 1999875 Link

I stand by what I said months ago stating that Oranmore will be have say and while they may not win the competition, they very well may take a big scalp before their championship run comes to an end. A nice double header in Moycullen on Sunday morning. Athenry and K/C will get their hands raised in victory. Well provided K/C get a firm referee - they will win. Carna known for their cynical tactics but that is a conversation for another day. TheCuteFox (Galway) - Posts: 15 - 15/06/2017 13:25:36 1999927 Link
Replying To galwayman2: "You made those odds up yourself I assume?" Ha! Where in God's name did you get those odds, Bull365? Spiddal 9/4 even though they hammered Brendan's in the first round and beat Headford in the league already? And even as poor as Clifden are, I can't imagine them being 3/1 against Brendan's.

Not to say your opinion isn't a valid one but the prices on Clifden and An Spideal have actually drifted since my local bookmaker put the odds up on the board this morning. The money line never lies!! Money follows money. NathinButSteel (Galway) - Posts: 115 - 15/06/2017 14:36:57 1999963 Link

The money line never lies!! Money follows money." Grand, I just think some of those odds are nuts. I'd agree with the favourites in most but the odds themselves seem extreme. Even Carna at 7/2, they're limited alright but well able to stop another team from playing and I don't mean that particularly cynically. If they stop Shane Walsh, K/C look just as limited judging by the bits I saw if them last year. But sure I'm no bookmaker! GalwayFancyDans (Galway) - Posts: 75 - 15/06/2017 15:23:42 1999985 Link
