Good win for the minors, overturned the championship result. Its good that they are getting more games. Is this a losers group from the championship ?

Yeah, it's a competition for teams who don't make the provinicial semi-finals. Basically what would normally be called a Shield, even though it's for the Seamus Heaney Cup.

Because we only lost in the quarter-finals of the championship "proper", we went straight into the semi-finals of this. Other counties who went out of the championship in earlier rounds had to play earlier rounds of the Heaney Cup as well.

Thanks. I see they were in the final last year as well. Louth v Longford on the other side.

I see Louth had a big win over Longford in the other semi-final last night (4-21 to 3-7). Final likely to be next week and I'd guess Parnell Park might be the venue.

The regular final is on Wed, Kildare 1pth win over Meath. Looking back on the group games and QFs you would have to say we should be in with a strong chance in final.

Parnell Park - not a bad place to have it for Wexford. Aughrim for the minor - I would say that favors us lets hope the boys get a win

Hopefully he is fully fit and fired up. We have few enough natural scorers on the panel.

Good mix of experience and youth and some big men around the pitch too.

No matter what the result is in Parnell Park tomorrow. Either Leitrim or Wexford will be in the next round of the Tailteann Cup.

Leitrim to advance need a win.
Wexford to advance need a draw/win.

Tipp/Waterford has their 3 games played.
Score difference not good. Neither can qualify.

Brilliant win and a real sign of progress, congrats to all involved, away to Down, Offaly or Carlow next weekend I believe, couldn't make it myself due to family commitments.
