Replying To slasher9: "i agree its a pity it all comes back to one source trying to stir trouble. a drumlish man hurling with clonguish is the latest one haha!!! involved against clonguish many times over the years and their was off one hand windys that played and spinx was not one of them!!" It's just that Frank/Spinx love the sound of his voice. As Clonguish are now gone, he is posting as Spinx to get a reaction. He will keep blowing wind as long as he gets a reaction. Abbey or Colmcille? B&G (Longford) - Posts: 362 - 24/10/2024 16:52:48 2576745 Link

Abbey or Colmcille?" What are you trying to drag me into this spat for? And I literally posted a week ago about the Intermediate and Senior final so I'm not sure what you are trying to get at! Now to answer your question..... Abbeylara to win. Frank74 (Longford) - Posts: 187 - 25/10/2024 05:52:00 2576797 Link
Intermediate: I can see this one going to ET or pens.. Gaels by 1 Senior: A low scoring game, Colmcille by 3 Garmin (Longford) - Posts: 96 - 25/10/2024 09:18:28 2576812 Link

Drumlish fell across the line in the couple of games I saw. Going on reports Connollys have impressed in all their games, it's very hard to see anything other than a comfortable Connollys win. I would like to see them win after what I think I read was 40 years of a famine. Senior match is a different story. There will be nothing in it again and I think could go down to the lottery penalty shootout. liosbreac6265 (Longford) - Posts: 254 - 25/10/2024 10:54:34 2576826 Link
Seán Connollys will win without coming off the bridle Rockshorecider (Longford) - Posts: 52 - 25/10/2024 11:30:29 2576836 Link
Senior: Abbeylara by 2 Intermediate: Fr Manning Gaels by 4 (late drive to steal it) Hopefully the rain stays off long enough not to spoil it all. With winner on the day and conditions messy, the refs might be busy and cards might have a big influence on how it all pans out.

Replying To Rockshorecider: "Seán Connollys will win without coming off the bridle" County finals are hard to win. Especially at intermediate level. I can't see either game being decided by more than a score Colmcille to win by 2 and Connollys to win by 1 Clonbonnyrabbitt (Longford) - Posts: 38 - 25/10/2024 13:48:57 2576879 Link
Abbey to win by 3 and Connollys to win by 5 williesboy (Leitrim) - Posts: 418 - 25/10/2024 14:32:47 2576890 Link
Fair play to Fr Manning Gaels for dismantling a strong Connollys side. Killashee will kick themselves for throwing the Ballymahon game to relegate Cashel… they could've got Drumlish in the semis and made the final themselves since they beat them in the first round. Carrickedmond coming down next year will be very hard stopped. Both Abbeylara and Colmcille will feel they left it behind them last time. If Abbeylara start the way they finished the last day they should win it… Gaalongford1 (Longford) - Posts: 4 - 26/10/2024 14:56:18 2577027 Link
Replying To Frank74: "Abbey will win the replay and Connollys will finally win the Intermediate after a few years of choking." Well Connollys did choke again!! Fair play to Abbey. I thought they were the better team today and were definitely fitter when it went to extra time. Frank74 (Longford) - Posts: 187 - 26/10/2024 17:46:20 2577052 Link
Well done to Abbey I'm sure my ex National School teacher Master Fay will be delighted this evening. Dunnor (Longford) - Posts: 43 - 26/10/2024 17:46:23 2577053 Link
Wow did not see that coming from either side. Fair play to the Gaels and Abbey. Bluelake (Westmeath) - Posts: 166 - 26/10/2024 18:08:52 2577056 Link

Had to watch on Clubber but thought Abbey just about deserved to win. They got a bit of the rub of the green though. Berry not getting sent off towards the end of full time was a very strange one. The lads commentating were sure he was gone. It was made all the more bizarre by Reilly getting sent off for an almost identical situation in extra time. I also don't think Robbie was going for a goal when he scored. You can see on TV he clealy slips as he's kicking the ball which just seems to take enough off it for it to go under the bar.

How did Robbie last so long before he got the line but maybe his mouth is his greatest asset. All his mouthing at the ref officials and everybody else seem to work in A bbeylaras favour gaasport (Longford) - Posts: 30 - 27/10/2024 08:03:09 2577114 Link

As a Neutral, I taught the referee had a decent game let it flow best he could and that is what made the game a good watch for most part, I also think Berry not getting a second yellow could of went either way, both clashed heads and looked worse as Berry landed on Sherdian, Fair play to Sherdian for not making a meal of it and getting up straight away. Two very close teams, I think fitness won it for Abbey in the end. GAAmanj (Longford) - Posts: 4 - 27/10/2024 09:37:08 2577121 Link

Berry had to go off not long after, possibly as a result of the clash of heads. So to say he should have been sent off doesn't wash with me. Definitely Abbeys better fitness told in the end. You could also add in the fact they had the tougher group with closer games and and playing Division 1 added to them getting it over the line.
