Galway - dual travails part 2

That’s the way he likes it but he may have to give it up.

He hasn’t really helped himself by repeatedly saying he plans to return to his home club in a few years

I see Ballinasloe got hammered by 19 points by Athenry down in junior. Gone to the dogs altogether there. Not even competitive down in junior.

Disappointing for a town of it’s tradition, history and size. Also rans at Junior B in hurling too.

Not to disparage any club but you’d wonder what effort they are putting in at all. Not really that difficult to be at least competitive. With even a little bit of organisation.

Not like it’s a club that have never won anything either. They actually have a history and tradition of winning county titles.

It was St. Grellans GFC and BHC. Then it became one. Don’t think it’s working at committee level at all.

Sad to see. Someone needs to go in there and rip it all down and build it up again.

It’s like when you dump a girl and say “we can still be friends”. Nobody really believes it.

Well I’d believe that he will go back as it often happens but its a silly thing to say when you’re trying to get a dubious transfer through

Mountbellew are hockeying An CearthrĂș Rua at half time

Mountbellew are the real deal. That refereeing performance last winter might well have done them out of an All-Ireland. Themselves, Moycullen and Corofin are by a distance a stronger trio than can be found in any other county championship.

Definitely, Jerome did them bad.

That Patrick Kelly is a top 5 player in the county.

Tough loss for Liam Mellows today :laughing::laughing:

Athenry had a former intercounty senior player in their ranks.

100%. Three excellent sides.

Where’s the wee man off to ?

Pity we couldn’t have gotten a fraction more out of him against Kerry. Kelly’s hard running had the potential to create space for Finnerty and Comer.

He also won a couple of kickouts in the first half of that. The find of the season in all honesty.

Was the Loughrea lad playing this evening?
