What a win for the Marys. Kiki Keenan was fantastic. Its gonna be some final against Cuala. Hopefully Donal Mc Kenny does a job on King Con. Ollie2 (Louth) - Posts: 961 - 25/11/2024 09:09:23 2581108 Link
Replying To MillerX: "Well done to St Mary's Ardee. They have a great footballing tradition going back for centuries. A final is never easily won but you certainly won't win if you're not there. Hopefully the occasion doesn't get to them and that each and every one of their players leave everything on the pitch. On another note, correct me if I'm wrong on this but weren't the semifinals of the last two, at least, Leinster Senior Championships played in Croke Park? Why the change this year? One step forward followed by two backward." It was in 2021 and 2022 that both Leinster semi finals were played in Croke Park. Here is a quiz question for you? Is the Marys the first GAA club from Louth to play in Croke Park? Ollie2 (Louth) - Posts: 961 - 25/11/2024 09:14:44 2581109 Link
Great result for St.Marys and well deserved. Best of luck against Cuala, be great to see a Louth club finally win a Leinster senior. Shearer (Louth) - Posts: 900 - 25/11/2024 13:38:13 2581173 Link

Replying To 19616609: "Ollie I think I remember seeing the Blues in Croker." You are correct and right. Blues played there. Cooley also played a few times there as well. Ollie2 (Louth) - Posts: 961 - 26/11/2024 16:50:04 2581343 Link
All the very best to the Marys today. Fingers crossed they can get over the line today. Ollie2 (Louth) - Posts: 961 - 30/11/2024 09:07:04 2581752 Link

Louth v Meath is final game of league. Hopefully it will be a dead rubber for both by then. both counties safe. dickie10 (UK) - Posts: 806 - 06/12/2024 23:04:09 2582687 Link

Replying To dickie10: "Louth v Meath is final game of league. Hopefully it will be a dead rubber for both by then. both counties safe." There is no such thing as a dead rubber in Louth v Meath matches. The ideal situation would be both teams have something to play going into the last match. Like Easter Sunday April 8 in 2012 in Navan. Ollie2 (Louth) - Posts: 961 - 07/12/2024 14:14:55 2582718 Link

Cavan will be a close game. Should be able to beat down in ardee. Monaghan ardee will be close either team. Cork away will be hard with cork trying to look for revenge from last year. And an easy win on the last fixture :) Lúla571210 (Louth) - Posts: 70 - 07/12/2024 14:57:25 2582719 Link

Each team looks like taking points off each other. Louth have a good record in Ardee over the past few years. If my memory serves me right they only lost 3 matches there out of 11 matches. Louth seem to start off slowly in the league. The last match against Meath at Inniskeen is gonna be some battle. I fancy Roscommon and Cork to go up and Meath and Westmeath to go down.

The makings of a great league this one. Any team could go D1 or easily D3! Looking forward to it now Shearer (Louth) - Posts: 900 - 10/12/2024 12:09:29 2582993 Link

according to paddy power Meath are favourites for relegation, so they could well be relegated by the time the game in inniskeen comes along if the bookies are right, westmeath second favs to go down as well. There would be some celebrations that evening in Drogheda, the two Meath teams relegated from the div!! dickie10 (UK) - Posts: 806 - 11/12/2024 23:09:26 2583226 Link
Replying To Shearer: "Its only a thing if you're from Drogheda" Not only in Drawda. Half of Louth border Meath. Ollie2 (Louth) - Posts: 961 - 12/12/2024 09:42:39 2583249 Link

Louth and Westmeath even though they played each other aload of times since 2000 in the Championship, League and O Byrne cup there would be no bitter rivalry.
