Well done lads, Wexford were no yellow bellies, leading by 4 in the first half with great scores from play. TBH though we were in trouble at that stage. Conditions were terrible but both teams had to deal with it. Eventually the class players we have stud up, Ciaran Downeys first goal was a peach, and pretty much turned the game. As the old saying goes goals win games and we could have got more. Wexford never gave up, but they had no real goal chance which they needed. Good team, they will go far in the TC. Best of look to Wexford. Sam the Man steedied the ship, and thank God we have him. Bring on the Lilywhites and another adventure in Croke Park...happy days

Louth going well and should be looking to beat Kildare for sure. It'll be a close affair.

Right lads, big game coming up next weekend against the Lilywhites. Some good player like Feeley, Masterson and Kelly. See Flynn is out. This is a great chance to get to another Leinster final. The wide open spaces of Croke Park should suit this goal hungry team. What's your thoughts in advance of the double header, might be a decent crowd at it, Kildare are well supported and I think we will travel for this big day out at HQ

It was down for either Portlaoise or Tullamore when the fixtures first came out.

Louth are the bookies favourites for this one which never suits Louth. The past two Championship meetings with Kildare wee got two hidings of them. It's the first time since 1998 that Louth have reached two Leinster semi finals in a row. You have to go back to 1958 for the last time Louth reached back to back Leinster finals.

deserved favourites though.

Beat Kildare in each of the last two years plus got to Leinster final in 2023.

Not to mention Kildare lost all their league matches and barely scraped over
Wicklow in the first round.

We pulled away from Wexford in the second half despite the unimpressive start.

Kildare will be comfortable playing in Croke Park but our lads have played there plenty
in the last couple of years as well
