As an exile in Donegal (and having just recieved the Bray people from the mother in the post today) sounds like its a cracker of a final for the neautrals.

Locky 09 , Glad to see your luk'n forward to the game on Sunday.
Lets hope the weather holds up, Dry day ,Dry Ball - suits Earls,O'Sullivan,Smullen , Kelly,Slattery , Duffy, pretty venomous
forwards for a Club team by any standard.

Rath Naoi back line will have major difficulties, dealing any 1 of them never mind all 6
The yr.ends in 9 is always lucky for St.Pats - Just like Tottenham their year ending in 1

The Clubhouse will be "rocking" at 8.30pm or so on Sunday evening
Fitz's will be full to the brim on Monday at 10.am with the Monday stew been served out of "MILEY"
Naom Padraigh Abu !!!

Forcus i presume you mean in Wicklow Club football when you talk about venomous forwards i doubt if the Dublin Champions will be losing any sleep if Pats win the Championship.

Lads I will be travelling over to Aughrim Sunday to, hopefully, witness a cracker. I think some comments are very Harsh but only time will tell. Speaking to some Pats supporters, the only reason they travel the Beehive way is to save their cars from the stone throwing that goes on in the village from the lovely, well brought up kids

Pisterloe I dont live in a glass House and to be honest I dont really care about either of the clubs involved. I am only saying what people say. Why wouldn't Wicklow Town folk travel a different route if they are going to get their cars stoned by driving through the Village. I think to any intelligent person would agree !!!

Whocares your side of the County it seems so i will bow to your knowledge of local affairs.I had never heard of cars being stoned i do know their was some trouble highlighted in local papers a few years ago about blue paint being used on walls and roadsigns on road to Aughrim.

Poor County final today Rathnew looked like winners from the throw in.. they showed determination and skill unlike Pats who lacked bottle. Only for the easy frees and a goalkeeping error Pats would have been thrashed!!!

I thought is was a great match played in the right spirit and a great advertisement for Wicklow football . Well done Rathnew ye were great and the point by Barry Mernagh was magnificent .

Agree Rathnew never really looked like losing, even after conceding soft enough goal. Fair play to goalie redeemed himself shortly after with good save but. You couldn't really say any Pats lad beat their opponent (McWalter maybe exception), unlike Rathnew who had a good few contenders for man of the match. Corner-back kept O'Sullivan quiet, Power done well on both Earls & Kelly, Bruiser Byrne probably best defender on show. Stafford was unreal, particularly in the second half. Up front, I thought Mernagh & no 12 done a lot of donkey work, Glynn was his usual self even if he overplayed it a bit on occasion, Gill was lively and looked dangerous every time he got ball into hand. I haven't seen much of Rathnew this year but their full-forward could be one for Micko. He showed well, worked hard without possession, good in the air, found the posts and brought those around him into play with few clever flicks & touches. Young team and hard to believe they were 8/1 at the start of the year. Could be around for few years yet??
