Replying To Leitrimforsam2024:  "Should have won tonight. I know conditions weren't ideal but Leitrim very slow getting the ball in especially when u have good forwards like Honeyman and Kelly who can score. I thought our subs especially Gallagher and wisely were very good"
A battling performance much like Leitrim had against Sligo,Galway but at what stage in the game did Leitrim look like winning it?

There was 7 points between the sides at half time and the margin was 5 until the last action of the game which was a consolation goal.

Very poor game last night to be honest thanks so much and one that we left behind us again against the weakest team we have played without any doubt. Thanks for agreeing. Only for their lucky goals we could have won but wasn't to be please. If we had full team we would have won no doubt. Thank you.

Not much between all of the counties with the exception of Mayo who should give the all Ireland a good craic especially with the quality of forwards they have In McDonald Lydon and beirne, Colm lynch at wing back another quality player

Yes, thanks very much for agreeing with this from the start but for the umpteen occasion a win for Roscommon v Leitrim at underage. And it was a Roscommon team minus main scorer and some other regulars. Wooden spoon again Blathers. Ros move on with to semi's. Could bate Galway but Mayo very strong. Glad our Minors too on a final. As I've said previously it's all about development and we are flying in that department. I trust you'll row on behind us now. Tay in Aughawillian some night and can't on Castlerea. Great times. Love to all.

The u20 final will be a replica of the mens final. A meeting of the traditional big two Galway v Mayo

Has been one Galway v Mayo final (2019) since the grade became U20 what does that tell you about tradition?

It was a very strange game, Leitrim left about 7 goals behind them, should have been a lot closer. They played well enough and showed a bit of quality. Sligo a bit bigger and more clinical was the only real difference. A poor effort by Leitrim county board with the wrong team in the programme, lads starting who weren't even in the programme, embarrassing stuff. We don't help ourselves with that sort of attitude, it can't be that hard to get right as every other county can manage it.

Wowyser and Blathach. Wooden spoon each there. As I said it's all about development. Say hi to the big dog. We're in one final at least at Minor. The craic is good and the young bucks are enjoying it. The cuckoo is on the way so keep the spirits up. We love you very much. Love to all.
