Replying To DelaneyCup2026:  "Apologies to Clonguish on the 10-15 point prediction.

The Downs missing a number of key players but honestly thought they were older, more experienced and would win at ease."
Missing players is no excuse as Clonguish were missing players as well. Clonguish very unlucky today. They surely did shut a few Westmeath people up with their performance.

Very few WH people predicted a comfortable win, The Downs are playing well but not as they could be, they were only missing Joe Moran and Kevin O' Sullivan and Moran's replacement scored 1-3, Kevin came on as sub. Great game. Scoring was exceptional

Super proud of our lads today. We weren't given a chance by anyone today. Went toe to toe with one of the favourites for the Leinster title. Experience told in the end against our young lads. With an average age of 22, hopefully these lads will stick together for years to come. Very nearly won it at the end, but it wasn't to be.

Solid performance by Clonguish today. Fair play. Could have nabbed it, but the old heads and experience showed for The Downs when they needed it. A lesson not to underestimate this Clonguish side, they won't be as green next time.

Intermediate was a horror show. Longford clubs can't compete at that grade at all.
