We beat Armagh last night in the Prelim round in Ulster 2.10 to 3.3. Great achievement for us considering this contains a lot of the 2009 AI Minor team Fr.Ted.Crilly (Derry) - Posts: 449 - 10/03/2011 11:01:19 885213 Link 0 |
Carlow to edge past Wexford, probably meet Longford in the final. Scallioneater (Carlow) - Posts: 294 - 10/03/2011 13:09:59 885386 Link 0 |
Carlow were very unlucky not to beat Dublin last year. This could be their year in Leinster. BallsMcQ (USA) - Posts: 941 - 10/03/2011 13:42:32 885419 Link 0 |
Is it a sign of the shift in power in Leinster football that neither of Leinsters big four (dublin, Kildare, Meath laois) failed to make the semi finals? Of the remaining teams I would like to see either Carlow or Longford win it nacellabeaga (Offaly) - Posts: 700 - 10/03/2011 16:27:49 885637 Link 0 |
Dont think longford will make the leinster final as westmeath have a decent team.With heslin to return also,they should beat longford,but it wont be easy.I can see westmeath winning leinster,as they are the strongest team left. southsider (Westmeath) - Posts: 132 - 10/03/2011 16:38:35 885661 Link 0 |
Ive seen westmeath play 3 or 4 times in d last 2 years... class team and reckon they will walk leinster by winning each game by a margin of at least 6+ ... all ireland wont be out of there reach with the likes of heslin, lynam, coffey, maguire and james dolan... quality side JONNNY (Kerry) - Posts: 61 - 10/03/2011 18:48:34 885878 Link 0 |
As I mentioned before Westmeath just keep crowing about themselves on how great they are and how brilliant Heslin is......didn't turn out that way last year when Longford met them in Mullingar for the minor game. Westmeath were beaten and Heslin was as well to of been sitting in the stand. Keep on shouting how great ye are and we''ll quietly go about our business. Westmeath are BRILLIANT!!!!!!!!

Eh Juan just to let you know it was a Leinster championship game!!!! Do your research lad!! haha Spinx (Longford) - Posts: 1361 - 10/03/2011 21:00:07 886019 Link 0 |
Why should Longford play in Westmeath when they are down as the home team??? If Leinster council won't let them play it in Slashers, Newtown or Drumlish where there is lights then they can play it in a neutral venue.....sounds like yer already making yer excuses in Westmeath!!!! I was at the Westmeath game last night and have to say ye weren't by any means near provincial champions let alone challenge for All-Ireland.

Ah now westmeath are a serious outfit. Us longford supporters need to stop looking at past glories and focus on d game at hand. Some of us here ( Spinx ) are gettin a little bit carried away. Calm down son. On paper westmeath will win............??? Hanley2 (Longford) - Posts: 420 - 10/03/2011 21:19:55 886045 Link 0 |
Also I think the game should be played under lights in a club ground. Maybe Abbeylara? Have they lights? Hanley2 (Longford) - Posts: 420 - 10/03/2011 21:21:07 886048 Link 0 |
Why wouldn't it have relevance Juan? Are there no minors from Westmeath last year on u-21's this year? There are some on Longford team. And from reading on here I agree with Spinx all Westmeath people are talking about how serious an outfit ye'll have when Heslin is back. Did he not play in the minor game last year? And did Longford not keep him quiet? And did Longford not win? So yes I like Spinx and quite a few others believe it does have relevance.

Longford should take Westmeath down to Legan....serious set up there. I played a game there 2 years ago, some hill on it! No chance of lying water!! Oddball (Roscommon) - Posts: 961 - 10/03/2011 21:39:49 886076 Link 0 |
At the end of the day it's a field but in fairness I think Longford would rather play away from westmeath. Oddball would reaching an under 21 final last year not be more a reason for optimism than winning a minor? Hanley2 (Longford) - Posts: 420 - 10/03/2011 21:44:38 886082 Link 0 |
Why can't the game be played on a Sat or Sun afternoon meaning the game can take place in Pearse Park??? Problem solved! Oddball (Roscommon) - Posts: 961 - 10/03/2011 21:49:56 886092 Link 0 |
Hanley2 unfortunatly the game wont be played on paper,longford will be formidable opposition and can fancy there chances like every team left. DABLACKSPOT (Westmeath) - Posts: 551 - 11/03/2011 13:30:18 886383 Link 0 |
