Still coming on here I see. Best wishes to Roscommon next year giving Mayo or Galway a decent game to help them progress further like your boys did with Mayo this year. It seemed very beneficial to them, and you also got a little cup out of it too. Brunch in Boyle? Hmm

Any predictions for club championships?

Aughawillian vs ballinamore- ballinamore by 5, think they might struggle without Honeyman and not sure on priors availability. Aughawillian have some quality younger players that will cause problems.

Mohill vs St Marys - Mohill by 2, I think Mohill will have a decent year and cause a bit of an upset here. Carrick will be looking to get back on track after league final but I fancy mohill think they have more quality.

Allen Gaels vs Fenagh - Fenagh by 4, I think Allen Gaels will put it up to them here but expect fenaghs scoring ability to get them over the line but not by much.

Glencar Manor vs Leitrim Gaels - Leitrim Gaels by 6, would predict a Leitrim Gaels win but I think Manor can cause them problems with mcnulty, Kelly and other young players. I don't believe Leitrim Gaels are what they were last year but have enough here.

Expect Aughawillian, Allen Gaels and Manor to fight it out for that 6th position in the table.

Replying To Leitrim2024:  "I'm find it hard to see where Aughawillian will pick up a win. (Ballinamore, St Mary's, Mohill & Allen Gaels).
Mohill might struggle at the start, especially if there's suspensions from the 3 red cards they got in their final league game.

At Intermediate, the first game between Annaduff & Gortletteragh could be telling.
Any information on where Annaduff and Dromahair will be playing their home games?"
All ready two clubs playing championship football outside the country. Shouldn't be allowed imo. We have enough playable pitches in the county.

Just reading in the online media today about two leitrim men coaching/managing in other, higher standard counties than ours? Why are we letting this happen? How many Senior/inter Clubs in Leitrim have a leitrim native managing them?

I think 3 of the 8 senior teams have club men as managers. I'd say is high percentage compared to other counties.
I think its the same at intermediate, but i stand corrected

Why are we letting this happen? Because it is a free country and people are entitled to train teams where they like.

Seeing as how its a free country should players be entitled to play for whoever they like?
