Leitrim Football 2019

I see leitrim village were bet by a point

Leading for most of the match as well apparently.

3pts up goin into the last 1/4 and conceded 6 in a row.

A grim day weather wise in castlebar

No Cillian o Connor today.

HT


Conceded a goal and had a man sent off in the 1st 5 minutes of the 2nd half doesn’t help

Hard luck Manor but they should really be making more of an impact at club level in Connacht.

They were well in it and probably should have been ahead at ht. Even after conceding the goal I thought we could still win as Dolan E Sweeney and Brady were causing all sorts of damage inside but the sending off fucked us.


3 home games against Cork Tipp and the Biffo’s.Not the greatest draw.Still think we’ll give it a good rattle

We’ll possibly be on 10 points going into the last game. Hardly enough for guaranteed promotion. There’ll be a lot on the line if that scenario enfolds.

I’ll say it now “Fuck Tipp”.

In other news there’s a noble assembly of scallywags in the gallery section from the Junior B final last weekend. Our custodian Killian Mac is surely no modern day athlete

He tries these Cluxton-esque sideways kickouts which sometimes don’t find the target


I read as well that the Cluainin stick-fighters withdrew services from the county hurling team, followed promptly by Carrick, pulling the plug on their own man. I heard nothing as yet but it reads ominously.

Must be why Cunniffe quit.Was there bad feeling after the final?I wasn’t home since the SOH game.

After the hurling final the Manor lads informed the C/B they weren’t hurling county under Cunniffe. C/B leaps into action a fortnight after and then Carrick say they’re supporting Manor. Cunniffe after 6-8 years at the helm and a Lory Meagher has no option but walk.

The C/B are probably holding out now for Daly/Donoghue/Gerlock/Cyril to steady the ship.
Jokers.

Sounds like a sickener for Leitrim Gaels last weekend

Different level sums it up really.

Is Cunniffe not a Carrick man though? It’d be a shame if the hurling suffers after all the hard work gone in. Played Leitrim plenty of times with the shire. Always decent skins and went to college with Glancy.

While a Galway native originally he’s been in Carrick 20+years and has single-handedly raised the standard and profile of hurling within the county. I’ve never met the man or heard anything negative about him until bomb went off.
It’s sad that having taken a step forward some interfada rears it’s head to derail the progress. There’s little doubt but those slievĂ©Ă©ns in the CluainĂ­n* hurling club are at the root of some nefarious scheme.

Is he anything to Clement?
