Also do Louth currently not have a home venue so they essentially give up home advantage. podge15 (Westmeath) - Posts: 3 - 29/04/2024 11:54:33 2541435 Link 0 |
Pearse Park in Longford can hold 10k a sell out there would great for both teams if we both had something to play for.

Tullamore was the neutral venue for Roscommon v Kildare last summer.

What was the alternative? Pairc Chiarain would have been a good local option but Brigids could hardly have been expected to agree to a Westmeath venue.

I was just pointing out that the last neutral venue between a Westmeath and Roscommon side was Longford despite the proximity of both teams just to help answer the original post, nothing else

Roscommon v westmeath would be a great draw for supporters around athlone, a huge local Derby. 10k would probably be two small, espically if something to play for. Upforthegame23 (Westmeath) - Posts: 83 - 29/04/2024 18:00:23 2541591 Link 0 |

Tough group but a great draw-in my opinion.We are not going to win an all Ireland but we have 3 great matches to look forward.You want to be playing the best.Season has been a success with all with all boxes ticked-promotion-divisional title and all Ireland series gained.We put up a good showing last year in group games so why not again this year.

Very well done to Damien Gavin and the U20s, winning the Andrew Corden Cup last night. Longford should have been beaten out of sight after all the goal chances missed. I believe its Limerick next for the lads in an All Ireland semi final on 11th May. Nothing easy for the seniors but competing in the Sam Maguire is where you want to be, making continuous progression and the more games against higher ranked opposition the better. Looking forward to the games coming up A_Chairde (Westmeath) - Posts: 177 - 01/05/2024 10:13:21 2542168 Link 0 |
