Was at the Fethard Craanford game. Craanford played the most bizarre tactics Iāve seen in a while. They had a sweeper, and for most puck outs, would play it short to their spare man. He would then get it and drive it as long and high as he could, where inevitably Fethards spare man would get it and just make it a totally pointless exercise. Fethard scored 4 or 5 points early on where their loose man just got possession, ran forward a bit and put it over from distance. 2 awful mistakes for goals kept Craanford in it, and they went ahead at one point, but Fethard had enough quality in general where a good few players scored and they werent reliant on one or 2 attackers. Injuries a major concern tho. Cian Byrne wasnt right, Eoin Whelan went off, and a few others carrying knocks. Mikie Dwyer played his first game since round 1 and got more into it as it went on.
Bit of an upset in the senior football tonight with Glynn taking down the Shels after extra-time. A good response when they were surely despondent after the hurling drubbing last Friday night.
Joe OāHagan gets decent results in the football.
Teacher in Waterpark?
Yes By God.
VP maybe.
Principal if itās the same man Iām thinking of, from Monaghan originally as far as I know. Michael Rice is VP in there.
3-5 0-2 down at half time and I think got 2 goals in injury time to level, heard they played ET with 14 men too.
Dassit.
Was over Starlights when they won the senior in 2017 anyway. Canāt remember if he was still there for the title after the late Ricky Fox winner in 2020.
Got Gusserane to a final. Not sure if they won it under him.
2020 was Anthony Russellās 1st year as manager.
They didnāt they lost under him to St Annes in 2014 by a point.
No idea. I donāt really follow club activity. Apart from some of Joeās game obviously.
Shame to see a well liked Shels team go outā¦
Oooh la la la
I donāt agree with this kind of thing.
If the weather is bad tomorrow can it. Anything could happen in the meantime.
There was a round of underage games cancelled in the summer on the same basis. And the weather forecast didnāt happen.
Iām not asking you Iām telling you
The games were earlier brought forward to noon and call made not long after to postpone them instead
