Replying To Garmin: "Brilliant at bottling it!!! Did you watch the finals of 23 and 24??" Can't blame management clearly players have to look at themselves if they are losing so many finals Longfordlad1985 (Longford) - Posts: 23 - 11/11/2025 11:48:41 2643967 Link
Replying To Longfordlad1985: "Can't blame management clearly players have to look at themselves if they are losing so many finals" I don't agree, same management for both finals with the same group of players, Management have to take responsibility!!!! Losing 1 final while being hot favourites is unlucky, Losing 2 in a row is just totally not good enough. Garmin (Longford) - Posts: 111 - 12/11/2025 08:44:12 2644096 Link
At least Clarke (if he's still there) will have plenty of Intermediate experience on the line with him, when they are down playing in it in 2027! Spinx (Longford) - Posts: 1437 - 12/11/2025 10:00:10 2644115 Link

They lost in 14 and 17 is it just that they have the bottling gene and is their anyone who can get them where they claim they should be Longfordlad1985 (Longford) - Posts: 23 - 12/11/2025 10:06:52 2644117 Link

One senior title to their name over a century ago and only one other senior final appearance since then, which they also bottled. They are an Intermediate team at best.

I see John Twaddle is managing Athlone next year. They seem to have a good batch of young players coming through. Will he awaken the sleeping giant in Westmeath?!! Oddball (Roscommon) - Posts: 991 - 12/11/2025 12:07:46 2644149 Link

Managing Athlone, sleeping giants in Westmeath. What has this got to do with Longford football matters which this forum is for. B&G (Longford) - Posts: 413 - 12/11/2025 12:52:34 2644154 Link

Not sure I'm not in around the team or the people but with some of the players they have should be winning intermediate whether they could survive in senior is another thing Longfordlad1985 (Longford) - Posts: 23 - 12/11/2025 13:09:13 2644156 Link
Replying To B&G: "Managing Athlone, sleeping giants in Westmeath. What has this got to do with Longford football matters which this forum is for." Is John Twaddle not a Longford Gael? So you are trying to tell me, that anything that happens to a Longford person or team outside the county should not be spoke of in this forum?!!! I think it deserves a mention!!
