That’s a good win. Westmeath are a solid enough side.

Not for Limerick but it’s a short term one trick pony, not a proper GAA county

Duggan Park speaks on FB.

So after a long day in Duggan Park and a good win for Galway it is time to set the record straight.

Duggan Park is own by Galway GAA and any use of the grounds name needs to be authorised by the management committee of Galway Gaa and no authorisation has been given.

If a recording is to be made within the ground, authorisation is needed. None was given.

  1. There is a plan in place for the development of Duggan Park which is multiple staged which started with the new dressing rooms, flood lights and a new entrance to the venue.

  2. Planning permission is in place for this development.

  3. 500,000 euros has been spent in the Duggan Park in the last number of years carrying out the above projects.

  4. The work in the ground is done to an excellent standard by local contractors with the support of the previous town council for grants and sports capital grants. The work carried out is future proofing Duggan Park and is done on a budget.

  5. A lot of very good people are involved in the running of Duggan Park and are no way connected to any unofficial groups who are trying to use the name of Duggan Park.

  6. For people looking to support Duggan Park, hats are available for sale within the ground at any event.

If any person wishes to support Duggan Park they can support the fund raising efforts of Galway Gaa and this will ensure the development of the ground.

Stick to your guns.

I actually think it’s a great facility (though not really for proper matches), capacity obviously small though.

It’s fab by all accounts and very accessible to clubs and schools of both codes from around the province

You’d think they’d give the Moycyllen lads a few weeks off.

Mental stuff.

And Gallagher expects Glass, Doherty and co to play the week after the final for Derry in first round of the League.

942

Paul Kelly took a few rough days in the league last year to heart and lost a lot of confidence for the remainder. McLaughlin missed a huge amount of games last year and is chomping at the bit.

I’d say they’ll both be delighted to get gametime in the bouncy castle.

943

James McLaughlin has been out injured for 9 months. Pretty much missed the entirety of Moycullen’s run. Came off the bench for NUIG the last night for his first football in ages. He actually needs some game time at his stage.

The two Kelly brothers even togged for NUIG on Wednesday evening. Can’t see them featuring much. Probably should have got the weekend off alright but guess they needed bodies to fill out the bench.

McLaughlin wasnt deemed good/fit enough to even come on for Maigh Cuillen the other day?
