The younger Fenagh lads will have endured the build-up, the match day tensions, the parade - all the hoo-ha and weathered the storm in a good fashion the last day.

They've been in and played well in a county final so I'm confident they'll go into the replay conscious of the fact that they're the match of their opponents and will play to their full potential.

BSOH are a fine team, bristling with talent and experience and won't be easily overcome but I'm hoping the County Board make the right decision and not plough ahead with it in a monsoon……

Replying To LeitrimBatman:  "Have not heard anything re the replay surely the powers that be are not asleep at the wheel here, and look at postponing the game with the orange weather warning, double header with the Junior A final on Sunday seems like the only option for this weekend."
Not possible, there will be 10,000 at the senior replay, I was talking to lots of people from bordering counties that are coming to Carrick to see it because they simply don't get to enjoy the quality we have in their own counties. No doubt everyone will have an eye on the Galway final also this weekend but there really is nothing there for us to worry about as the quality in Salthill will be poor fare.

10k? Fair play, lad! One of the biggest crowds in recent years at a Leitrim Senior Final was back in 2018, when Mohill played Aughawillan in front of close to 4,000 people. If there are 3,000 at Páirc Seán tomorrow, I'd say they'll be doing well! -

It appears that Andy McEntee has actually gotten the Longford gig.
Whether he can build on the progress under Solan is the burning question….

Not a bad showing from st Mary's, have we won any games at this level in connacht? Our record at adult level bar kiltubrid in 2005 (that was a solid team) is abysmal but hopefully a few kinder draws combined with smaller more competitive championships will improve our fortunes in the coming years

The smaller championships has improved the standard in all grades particularly Intemediate and Junior A. These are where a Connacht could be won soon. Thought Allen Gaels should've done better last year in Connacht Intermediate seeing as they wiped the floor with everyone in Leitrim. The Junior A final looks strong enough this year, both are Intermediate level teams really.

I backed Fenagh in the first game but I feel they had their chance and got caught by a last minute goal reminiscent of a previous final many years ago.

Comfortable win for soh today imo.

No doubt Fenagh get over the line today

Replying To Square_B:  "I do always believe that that team that has made the comeback in the previous encounter has the advantage... I said it earlier in the year that I thought B'more were the team to beat and I'm sticking by that. I didn't expect Fenagh to get this far... but I think their chance is gone. Would love to see them win but you have to take your chances when they come as they may never come about again."
I should have put a few pound on SOH.

Ballinamore make no mistake in the replay , congratulations to them deserving champions. As sorry as I feel for Fenagh, they had their chance the first day and let it slip. It will be a long winter of regret for them and there as far away from that elusive championship as ever. Ballinamore are in fairness the best equipped team to represent us in Connacht and hopefully they represent us well. Finally congratulations to Aughnasheelin on a great win in the Junior Final be a great few days around Ballinamore id say.
