Unfortunately didn't get to match. Great win for all concerned. Fantastic. royaldunne (Meath) - Posts: 17035 - 29/07/2018 08:14:38 2127161 Link
I was there, was an awful day to play football, pitch was soaking, ball was like a bar of soap. First half we were by far the better team and used the breeze well to get scores, mostly working it through the hands with runners off the shoulder. 2nd half we really struggled for a 20 minute period. Not only did we not score, we couldn't get out of our own half. We were actually lucky to be 1 up. They had 2 goal chances saved by Brennan (excellent shot stopper) and hit the post with a handy chance for an equalizer. The bottle of the team, Mitchell in particular was excellent. This team has earned its way to Croke Park. Wins over Kildare, Dublin and Derry (who beat Tyrone). I am very excited and can't wait for the semi final LeitrimRoyal99 (Meath) - Posts: 833 - 29/07/2018 12:39:03 2127230 Link

Replying To royaldunne: "When is the semis?" 11th or 12th of August as a curtain raiser to one of the senior semi finals. We are playing Galway next. Not sure whether it's the Saturday or Sunday LeitrimRoyal99 (Meath) - Posts: 833 - 29/07/2018 17:15:35 2127286 Link

If Galway top their Super 8 Group which they look like they will, they will play in the Sunday Semi Final, you would have to imagine that the minor game will be before hand. longroadback (Meath) - Posts: 300 - 31/07/2018 11:57:52 2127809 Link

Replying To woodside: "Are all semi final tickets allocated through the clubs." Think you can buy them. Hopefully anyway royaldunne (Meath) - Posts: 17035 - 06/08/2018 06:20:08 2129832 Link

Tickets on sale, have mine got. Very very excited about this game. Have no idea what Galway will be like. Beat Mayo by 3, Ross by 4 and Clare by 8. I have faith in this group of players and managers, hopefully they can do it LeitrimRoyal99 (Meath) - Posts: 833 - 06/08/2018 15:30:20 2130059 Link

going to game saturday, but dont really have an intrest in looking at dublin steamroll galway in the second game. would it be a bit odd if i head off home after the minor? dickie10 (UK) - Posts: 532 - 07/08/2018 12:34:10 2130396 Link
Replying To dickie10: "going to game saturday, but dont really have an intrest in looking at dublin steamroll galway in the second game. would it be a bit odd if i head off home after the minor?" Have been in this position a few times with Dubs games after Meath. I'd usually wait till the Dubs go up by more than 6 and leave then LeitrimRoyal99 (Meath) - Posts: 833 - 07/08/2018 12:58:39 2130409 Link
Replying To bert09: "So will the dubs be cheering on our minors?" Yes they will - I am going with a few mates who are Dubs - they will all be cheering on the Meath minors - Leinster first!! ASaminthehand (Meath) - Posts: 292 - 07/08/2018 15:56:45 2130485 Link
Still away on a little family break. Will tickets be available on Saturday?? As be back in Dublin on Saturday morning. Good to make a day of it. Bring whole family. royaldunne (Meath) - Posts: 17035 - 08/08/2018 07:50:43 2130693 Link
Replying To royaldunne: "Still away on a little family break. Will tickets be available on Saturday?? As be back in Dublin on Saturday morning. Good to make a day of it. Bring whole family." Tickets are still for sale on the GAA web site. The only problem is it seems that all the family tickets are gone. I bought 3 tickets yesterday - €45 each. A couple of lads from the club involved with the Minors so want to support them! ASaminthehand (Meath) - Posts: 292 - 08/08/2018 11:05:13 2130762 Link
