Yes the pitch is good in fairness and there is good parking at it thank you for agreeing. It's a shame that the roads around it are so so poor as it probably would have games other than that and it does not be used that much as Gortletteragh team is quite weak at this particular moment in time thank you for agreeing with this please.

Replying To Leitrim007:  "Didn't get to watch or go to the u20 game after it was moved from cloone. Such a pity as home advantage would have been of great benefit. Sounds like a decent performance from our boys hopefully they can build on it , who all stood out?"

Yeah but the Bors are never accused of being Rossies.

Defence was solid, midfield were great Ronan fox had a great game at wing back got on a lot of breaking ball, thought the full back line done well, cormac Moran was excellent in midfield, honeyman and Kelly showed some great glimpses throughout the game aswell

God forbid. Mind you some of the Bors could be Longford folk seeing as some of the parish is in that county. But that is a nice one so no matter.

Replying To bláthach:  "Always hard to beat one of the big two in Connacht thanks so much for agreeing. We need to focus on beating the other two please and this team is more than capable. Please get out and support them thank you everyone."
Nay probs, El Blathers. Try and be more positive though. We are safe in Division one. You are safe. Safety is key.
We'll have a good game in the U20 on the Hyde. We will welcome you all with open arms. Good players in Leitrim especially young Honeyman (great Aughawillian name) and young Kelly. We all might be on bottom three or maybe not but please please be positive and feel the love. It's so important. We want you back. Love to all.

Another tough assignment for our minor team tonight against another one of the big two please everyone. Very difficult start for them. Shame we could not have gotten Sligo or Roscommon in oen of the games where we could have realistically aimed for a victory thank you for agreeing everyone on the forum.

Replying To Loughallenbanks:  "Is it true that county games aren't allowed to be played in the centre of excellence? I'm nearly sure I heard that before. All home games being played in cloone is a shocking decision, whatever about other pitched cloone most certainly would not be playable. Gortleterragh have lights now I believe but they might only be training lights."
Gortletteragh have floodlights now on the new pitch. New stand built too.

Hard luck to our minors tonight great performance after the first 10 minutes. Michael o Grady , Matthew speers and josh bosquette very good for leitrim . Had a half chance at the end to get a draw would have been a great boost.

Yes From 1-7 to no score after ten minutes to then outscoring Mayo 2-11 to 0-10.

Against Galway last week from 1-7 to no score to then 1-9 to 1-11 in scoring you certainly need to address those slow starts.

All's well and good El Blathers. Good effort by all the minor teams last night. I'm not sure who's going well or not but we are in for one hell of a journey. Looking forward to it. Playing with grit, determination and passion all these young lads throughout the province. It's really a wonderful spectacle. You might come back to me with an updated table or permutations if you get a chance. Thanks very much for this in advance. Love to all.

Great performance against the provinces underage kingpins. Big improvement on Galway game & great goal chances that could have changed the game. Optimistic about remaining games against lesser opposition.

No sign of you praising your own minor side on your own forum there chief? What's that about.

There a good much of lads bud but they're a work in progress. I don't get carried away with underage. It's all development. I'm just more concerned tbh with Blathers disdain of all things Ros. I want Leitrim competitive and all Connacht teams doing well. I wish no I'll of no Connacht team. Love to all.
