Replying To Seniorleague: "SK very worthy winners despite needing a last minute goal. Two points up with mere seconds to go and Moycullen leave an acre of space on front of their keeper. Shocking game management." Maher seemed to be given a lot of freedom , after making the catch , to kick the ball in to the forward. A sickener for Moycullen but many games are decided in the last seconds. Not over until it's over. endgame (Roscommon) - Posts: 2796 - 25/10/2026 19:58:17 2698535 Link

Replying To Seniorleague: "Any updates re connacht club fixtures and venues" Senior - Brids v Sligo in the Hyde. Salthill play Ballinamore don't know where. Winners of those games play each other. Meanwhile Castlebar play London Chanpions in the other semi. Seanfan (Roscommon) - Posts: 988 - 25/10/2026 22:55:43 2698550 Link
Surprised to see people saying it was a great advertisement for Galway football. I'm an outsider and thought it was pretty poor stuff. With a gale force wind blowing, no team seemed to know how to take advantage of it. I'd have called it a 6-8 point advantage for the team playing with the wind. An spideal going in a point down at half time, I thought they'd romp home but they never showed up and caherlistrane battled hard and were well deserved winners. Salthill Knocknacarra took 25 minutes before registering a point with a huge wind behind their back. Pretty much everyone at the ground thought they were gone at half time. letsgosligo (Sligo) - Posts: 120 - 25/10/2026 23:48:29 2698554 Link

It was a great comeback, but I wouldn't call the winning goal a shame, unless it's from a Maigh Cuilinn point of view. For the neutrals it was an epic finish to the match, and overall a deserved win for Salthill I thought. It's mad what happens when teams just have to go for it.

Well I say a shame as I wanted Moycullen to win lol but from a neutrals point of view it was great stuff. And yeah over the course of the game the better team won.

What a performance from young Timmy Madden in the intermediate final yesterday, finished with 0-7 and MoM award. A minor last year, this is his first year playing adult football and to do that for your parish is the stuff dreams are made of. I think Caherlistrane will have enough to stay senior next year, good influx of young players, Richard McGrath and Evan Cunningham at the back look like county prospects. Still a sprinkle of the old heads there and a solid management team. Give them a couple of years and I think they could make a similar impact that Dunmore did a few years back. As for Spideal, you would feel sorry for them because their spine is aging and not much churn of youth coming in a part from Farthing who has stood out as we all hoped he would. An Spideal will be there abouts again next year but Oranmore are another year older and wiser, we all know they are coming. Litir Mor will want to bounce back quickly. MB will have all these Minor lads now eligible but they might need a couple of seasons in the dog fight to adjust. Well done Caherlistrane, a very difficult championship to win.
