Fullen Gaels will win that at a canter.

Lancashire football final next week St.Brendans (Manchester) v John Mitchels(Liverpool).

I watched St.Brendans in the semi yesterday and they are a quality team,majority of them born over here as well.

382

Both sides were missing players yesterday. Mitchels were down 3/4 and Fullen probably the same. Will the lancs final impact the Fullen side? I know they’ve lads who play the football.

383

I very much doubt that full hands were shown yesterday. I don’t think any fullen lads will be missing because of the football due to the extraordinary generosity of the football management in Manchester in general.

Where is it on and when manus do you know?

385

Old Bedians,Didsbury this sunday,not heard what time it starts yet.

386

Would you throw it up when you do? Might head along. Who do you fancy to win it out?

387

Will do Flatty.

St.Brendans would be favourites but John Mitchels are former All-Britain champions so would have the experience behind them.
I think St.Brendans will pip it as they are the form team and seem to be sharper this season.

388

Thanks manus. I hope they do. They have been banging on the door for ages. Have peters gone back? I didn’t see any of it this year at all. Who knocked them out?

389

Throw in is at 3pm sunday Flatty.

Peters are my club and have lost a lot of players this year.

Injuries,lads going home or travelling has taken its toll.

John Mitchels put us out in the semi last weekend.

390

Thanks a million. I most likely know you in the real world. Ill head down I reckon if I’m let. Did ye lose by much.

391

12 points,a wild baytin’.

392

Fcuk me, that was wild enough. Fair play to Brendan’s for sticking it out though. Really hope they win. Is mully still playing with them? He was a cracking hurler all things considered, and an absolute gent.

393

Fullen Gaels were 5 points up half way through the second half when I left. Got a very soft second goal after Mitchels had started the second half strongly

394

That goal was disallowed. Mitchels got it level and went a point up. Fullen responded to go a point up. Mitchell’s then missed 4frees in the last ten to level it before Fullen tacked on four points to win by 5.

395

My prediction was a bag of shite as usual,Mitchels won by 2pts.
Good game to watch and level at half time,St.Brendans were not as fluent as they have been most of the season and maybe nerves and the pressure of winning a first title in 17 years had an effect.
Once John Mitchels went in front they just kept the ball and killed the game off.
St.Brendans missed two frees in the last couple of minutes which would have tied it up but Mitchels deserved the win.
Good luck to them in the All-Britain championship.
