Leitrim and Down meet for the first time in the championship with Leitrim still seeking their first win in the qualifiers. It leaves themselves and Waterford as the only counties still waiting for a qualifier win.

In contrast, Down made great use of the second chance last year, advancing from Round 2 of the qualifiers to reach the All-Ireland final where they lost to Cork by a single point.

THE VERY BEST OF LUCK TO THE LEITRIM TEAM AND MAnÓgEMENT ON SATURDAY.

Connacht GAA Minor Football Championship Report

It was a lovely evening in Pairc Sean Mhic Diarmada, the sun was shining and it was well supported by both camps but it was not long after kick off to see that the Leitrim team were up against a very strong Galway team.

Galway got off to a great start with two goals, firstly by Jerry  Kelleher in the fourth minute, followed by another goal by Shane Maughan (Man of the Match) two minutes later. The Galway team scored a further three points before Leitrims Felim McHugh got a point from play in the 14th minute. Despite Galways lead Leitrim took the game to their stronger and more clinical opponents. They were led by midfielder McHugh and aided by free-taking of centre half forward Donal Wrynn.

At half time the score was 2-6 to 0-6 and the game remained openÓgoing into the second half. Leitrim started well in the second half with two early points and it gave Leitrim supporters some hope but Galways Kelleher added to his first half effort with a goal in the  45th minute and it was followed by a fourth goal four minutes later by Ian Burke.

Final score was 4-13 to 0-11, it was a strong Galway team that came to Carrick-on-Shannon and gave a powerful display and Leitrim’s challenge which was not good enough on the day kept trying to the end.

 

scorers- Leitrim: D Wrynn 0-6, F McHugh 0-3, C Farrell, N Moore 0-1 each.

scorers-Galway: J Kelleher 2-1, S Maughan 1-7, I Burke 1-1, S Walsh 0-2, P Glynn, G Armstrong 0-1 each.

Raising the Bar

 

Raising the Bar.

 

The Qualifier Draw is done. Were off to Newry to meet last years All Ireland Finalists. You couldnt raise the bar much higher than that, so lets go. How often have we bemoaned playing the same teams year after year in the National League, wishing we could reach the higher divisions and play with the big boys. Nows our chance, so let us stop talking about a tough draw; about a typical unlucky call for Leitrim; about how it would have been better to be pulled out against London or Antrim or Offaly; about how a local derby with Longford would have been ideal – almost as if we should shiver at the thoughts of Laois or Meath. Or Down! Are Longford trembling at the thought of meeting Tyrone? Not at all, they are licking their lips at the prospect of being pitted against one of the best ever All Ireland winners. Should Leitrim feel otherwise? Dont go on about it being a pity we didnt get Down at home. Páirc Seán is not exactly a Leitrim fortress, we have been bushwhacked there several times; we could design a mural of close calls and last minute defeats on the boundary wall. In Markievicz Park just weeks ago the team played with abandon. The players seemed at ease, there were no hang-ups, they moved the ball quickly, they backed each other up, they went for scores, they were confident on the ball, they rallied when the pressure came on, they won! Everybody talked of a new Leitrim. We were a real part of the 2011 Championship story. Of course we were all wise after the game, saying we knew theyd do it. Loose talk. If we were that sure, wed have been kicking in the doors at the bookies to back them at the 5 to 1 odds. Suddenly we were oozing with confidence and for the game in Carrick we put little value on Roscommon, we were marking our diaries for the Connacht Final. Our plans became unstuck, there was no repetition of the flair displayed against Sligo, many went home disgruntled. We were out of the Connacht Championship and back into the Qualifiers. At least, after the first round games, we could be happy about something “we wont have to keep being reminded that Londons only Championship win was against Leitrim,” away back in the mists of 1977. We will be reminded, of course, that Leitrim has yet to win a Qualifier game and little time was spent by the analysts in predicting who will win in Newry. There could only be one result, Down. Thats what was forecast for their game against Clare too, but they only got out of Ennis by the skin of their teeth. Obviously Clare did not expect to win, as only a handful of die-hard home supporters bothered to turn up. Not a great Act of Faith in their team! A little self-belief is what Mickey Moran, Martin McGowan and Brian Breen will be drilling into their players as they prepare for Newry. Sure theres nothing to lose, just go out and play with the same confidence that they displayed against Sligo, forget about the David and Goliath references, seize the moment, make a piece of history. What an incentive it must be for the players to be lining out against really new opposition, a team that hit the headlines last year, that came so close to bringing Sam back across the border. Thats why every man in a green and gold jersey will be raising the bar.

Connacht Minor Championship Semi Final

This Saturday the 2nd of July the Leitrim Minors face Galway in the Connacht Minor Championship Semi Final at 7pm in Pairc Sean Mac Diarmuda, Carrick On Shannon. They are in no doubt about the task that lies ahead of them but remain confident that the months of hard work and commitment given by both players and management will pay off on Saturday evening. We know that they will give it all they have as their is a great team spirit among the lads. During the league their never say die attitude proved this. On behalf of Coiste na nÓg we wish the Team Management and players the very best and urge you to come out and support our Minor Team.
