Replying To JimmyNail: "Gortletteragh are starting at underage groups and hoping to build it up over time, I think Ballinamore at the same too." At football?? Assume so coz Gortletteragh need to get sorted thank you as they are quite weak. Thanks. bláthach (Leitrim) - Posts: 590 - 01/07/2026 15:34:25 2683471 Link
I think the likes of clubs with big population booms especially from other parts of Ireland like Allen Gaels or Annaduff should really be promoting hurling, but then again I suppose football needs to be taught in some of these places first before they move on to the hurliing. ohwow (Leitrim) - Posts: 239 - 01/07/2026 15:55:50 2683476 Link

Annaduff too close to Carrick to set up their own club, they've had a few lads play with carrick over the years. Allen gaels a better shout, try pull players from a few surroundings parishes round lough Allen and sliabh an iarainn. Would need 5 to nearly 10 years fielding at academy and underage level before anything at adult would bear fruit gaelsboy (Leitrim) - Posts: 800 - 01/07/2026 18:14:30 2683506 Link
Replying To bláthach: "Yes Gortletteragh tried but failed thanks so much. But to be fair to them please it's very hard for them as they find it hard enough at the football, never mind the hurling. Thanks so much for agreeing with me on this." It's a wonder you never tried to get it going in Fenagh. IronSleeve (Leitrim) - Posts: 91 - 02/07/2026 14:36:09 2683681 Link

Replying To Thejampot: "Or maybe bornacoola" Are bornacoola still going at the football or has the club calved?? bláthach (Leitrim) - Posts: 590 - 03/07/2026 09:48:50 2683830 Link
Replying To ohwow: "Just don't think there's the will to get things moving in Annaduff for hurling and they are hovering around junior level danger in football so they must kick it" I think you will find they are 4th in division 2 and a favorite for the intermediate championship, though it will be a tight championship and hard to call. Junior A the same. 3 to 4 teams in with a good chance. B and C depends on who has who available on the day. gaelsboy (Leitrim) - Posts: 800 - 03/07/2026 12:27:11 2683895 Link
I see the willies relegated last night, aghavas could go too tonight if ballinamore beat them but theres no guarantee in that, ballinamore missing a lot of players at the moment, these pointer games are huge. big win last week for kiltubrid against manor in Div 2. i presume kiltubrid and manor will both go up to div 1. meathbasedfan (Leitrim) - Posts: 213 - 03/07/2026 13:56:44 2683928 Link
Replying To Thejampot: "Or maybe bornacoola" Oh, I think Bláthach and his various aliases are from Fenagh. All of them! IronSleeve (Leitrim) - Posts: 91 - 03/07/2026 15:33:17 2683955 Link
