Great win for the lads! Sounded on the radio like they all played well. It was particularly heartening to hear newer lads like Higgins and Kehoe played well! Sounded like Doyle was solid too, seen quite a bit of him the last few years playing for Ballyhogue and he's definitely skilful enough!
Hopefully there's a good crowd of us in the Park next weekend to cheer them on, they surely deserve it!

Replying To WexMurph:  "Great start to the league hopefully the team can push on now. Good to see younger lads getting in. Probably our best win in a long time?"
Hopefully it will only be our best win until next weekend! Laois have had our number the last few years, it will be a very tough game Saturday.

Its a great result. Fermanagh at home is not easy, they didn't lose a single league game all last year and were well on the mix for promotion.

Its a great start, hopefully push on now.

Massive win, congrats to all involved. Fermanagh is a team Wexford have struggled with and to come away from Enniskillen with the points is no mean feat. Onwards and upwards.

Next weekend we face another team we have struggled with unfortunately!

Its baby steps but steps in the right direction for the team given the age profile.

We have a terrible record against Laois in recent years. Hopefully that will change Saturday.

Great win to start the league!

Laois will be a tough game. Luckily, past records matter for nothing. This match will be two good division 3 teams meeting in Wexford Park, the best team on the day will win.

laois will be a tough game, they gave us a right trimming in the cship but we were a tired team so that can be ignored so it will be close,

Yeah we have failed to show up at times against better teams and suffered badly as a result. It is a big test for the team, can they back up the win in Fermanagh.

Fantastic win by our footballers today.
They ran Laois ragged throughout and scoring 23 points and conceding only 9 points was simply superb.
Before the league began I said on this forum that I thought we would struggle to win any games and our stay in divison 3 would be a short one.
How wrong I was and thrilled to be wrong.
To go up north and beat Fermanagh was great and to trounce Laois by 14 points today was something else.
It was a team effort. Everyone played well.
Next up Limerick. Laois beat them by 1 point last week, so we shouldn't fear them.
Let's hope the lads can keep up the winning streak in the weeks to come and maybe be in the shakeup for promotion to division 2.
Long way to go of course but we seem to be heading in the right direction.

Completely outclassed a poor Laois team. I didn't recognise many lads on there team bar O Carroll and Byrne and they looked clueless. They must have lost alot of players. Wexford kicked some fantastic scores Sean Nolan in particular but was a very good team performance. Will probably keep us in division 3 at least now with a shot at promotion. We look more set defensively now which is a must at that level.

Great evening in the Park, nice weather, good Football, pitch held up well too fair play to the groundspeople!!
Really good to beat Laois again at last, after a couple of bad beatings, and a good start to the div3 campaign. The younger lads played well again, the team played with great intensity and movement.
