Replying To Oddball:  "Are Grattans on there own or are they in with Rathcline? I didn't know they hammered Slashers already.....they seem to have a decent under 21 side so with their few County minors coming up in the next few years."
On their own. Rathcline are in the same group so they will play each other on Sunday.

U21 A final will be Clonguish versus winner of a semi-final between Ballymahon/Kenagh and winner of Fridays game between Granard and Killoe. Another big win for Clonguish at the weekend, won their three group games by 13, 12 and 10 points - only a pandemic would stop them winning it at this stage.

U21 B semi-finals will have Carrickedmond, Grattans, Southern Gaels and whoever wins the Ardagh Moydow v Dromard game on Sunday. Another big win for Grattans at the weekend and Carrickedmond putting down a big marker with that 28-point win over Fr Manning Gaels yesterday.

Derek Fahy and Gerry Hagan nominated for the chair, Albert Cooney term finishes. Albert Cooney, Derek Fahy, Gerry Hagan, Damien Edgeworth and Martin Mulleady nominated for vice chairperson. Likely to be no treasurer. 2 nominated for PRO. 3 nominated for 2 Leinster positions. Ronan Muldoon new planning and training officer. 2 nominated for assistant secretary.

I wonder who has been nominated for PRO. Our social media and more needs a lot of improvement when compared to neighboring counties, it would be great if the Devaney's from Killoe got involved with it as they have built something great in 'Longford Gaelic Stats'.

The lads behind the stats site are all living away. You need real-time socials run locally and at the games. I would put whoever is doing Clonguish social media in charge of the county social media accounts in the morning. Right level of detail, good humour, able to be self deprecating when needed.

That's one of our current under 21 players. He does put up some funny posts.....something a lot different than what we had previously.....a big improvement!!

Carrick Sarsfields v Grattans in Under 21 the pick of the games this weekend. Doesn't really matter who wins the Granard/Killoe game as it's all over bar the shouting, and i'd say same about the Ardagh Moydow v Dromard one too.

Wolfe Tones up against it in Leinster on Saturday, their last game was the county final on 22nd September so can't be easy to keep lads focused and ready.

Big win for Killoe tonight. It looks they have a few players back that missed the first 2 games. I can see them beating Ballymahon/Kenagh by about 5 or 6 points in the semi final and set up a second final meeting in a row with ourselves.

Was at match in killoe tonight they turned on the style at times looking really good and on a cold wintery night both teams produced a very good game of football with Glancy having no affect on it... A group of players from killoe panel were talking around me about management in killoe next year and some saying they are going for a big name again from outside..

Don't think its that they have got players back, it looks like they've just got time to get a settled team and work with them together.. Still No Paddy Moran and i didn't see him on bench.
