I could say Iām racking my brain to give they correct year but never would be the result.
Weāve been there in 94 and a minor semi some years later.
I was at the 56 minor final for a mauling from Dublin and an NFL semi against Derry a few years later. Weāll probably contest a q/f this year but thatās the limit of my expectations.
John Harrington had a good piece of GAA.ie once upon a time as well. He seems like a gentleman, and what a journey. Great to see him get to hurl in Croke Park. When you think that Laoisā Willie Hyland never did, it just goes to show what a story this really is.
Derry was 58 wasnt it and the minors were up against the great Corman mcAnallen and his tyrone team in 98 the same year we lost young mcgettigan and they lost a goalie .Ladies won an AI in 88 iirc
His phone will be hoppin mad now for a few weeks.Some ladon the paper review on OTB a couple of sundays ago actually mentioned Zac and how he would make a great profile piece rather than the bland killkenny/tipp/cork lad who supposes everything and says nothing,
There will be an Official Leitrim Supporters Function in The Six Bells, 211 High Street, Acton, on Saturday night May 27th from 9pm and on Sunday night from 5.30pm til late.
Special Guest on Saturday night will be John O Mahony.
All details relating to these nights are contained here

Worse pub Iāve been to in a while. Service was terrible. Young fella with tattoos served me, tried talking to him but he wasnāt interested, in fact he was very rude. Wasted money in there, never to go back. Donāt live in the area but stay from time to time and have been to a few of the pubs, they are all friendly and the staff seem to have time for you except this one. Pub was nearly empty, wonder why. To be avoided!

Probably my favourite pub in acton after a pub crawl. I dont know why really as it wasnt anything special but just a good place to have a drink. Some bloke in there was so p1ssed he was saying he couldnt work out what end of the pub he was in ha ha!

I thought that Iļæ½d stepped back in time when I walked in here, especially when I noticed the Mcewanļæ½s tap on the bar. The other selections of draught are nothing out of the ordinary, but they do sell Websterļæ½s Draught Bitter which Iļæ½ve not seen before.
There are a couple of plasma screens and small TVs and also a pool table around the back of the pub before the generously sized gentļæ½s toilet. The music was very loud for the afternoon, but my nan would have loved it.
The landlady was very nice, as were the couple of locals that I met making my visit very pleasant.

A good, old fashioned Boozer. Nothing fantastic, but nice and clean. Clientele are generally over 60. Food is quite good.

A fantastic boozer, this place is full of characters, I was made to feel very welcome. The bar staff will have a chat with as do the locals. Donāt expect a modern interior, it old and looks tired, but some how this adds to the attraction of the place

Nice old āreal pubā. Went on a Friday night once & they had live Irish music. Itās a laugh even though the pub aināt particularly modern or stylish. Plenty of elderly Irish women who pull you up to dance . they do food but never eaten there, trad stuff like boiled bacon, Sunday roasts etc.
