Mayo back on the road again

Fri, May 19, 2023

After what feels like an eternity, Mayo are finally back in competitive fare as they take on Kerry in Killarney this Saturday in Group One, Round 1, of the All-Ireland series. As expected, Louth were confirmed as the remaining team making up Group One after they were mauled by Dublin in the Leinster final by 21 points.

It feels a bit weird that in a compressed season with way more championship games being played, you can still go a full six weeks without a game. That's a bigger gap than you would ever have had to contend with back in the "one chance only" days, when sometimes, four games were all it took to win the All-Ireland title.

McStay ready for things to ramp up even more

Fri, Apr 07, 2023

The Mayo players were enjoying the fruits of their labours judging by the noise emanating from their dressing room deep in the bowels of Croke Park last Sunday evening after their four point win over Galway, as their victorious manager Kevin McStay was giving his thoughts on what had happened that afternoon to the press pack.

A obviously joyous Mayo manager was delighted to claim the National Football League Division One title, but knew his side had little time to celebrate with Roscommon coming up this Sunday afternoon in Hastings Insurance MacHale Park in their Connacht Championship opener.

Donegal date to ensure Division One survival

Fri, Mar 24, 2023

Mayo know exactly what they have to do this Sunday when they make the trek to Letterkenny for their final league game of the season. The permutations are simple for Mayo win or draw and they are safe in the top flight for another season, but a loss to the Ulster side and they will be plying their trade in Division Two next year.

In the immediate aftermath of Mayo's comprehensive triumph over Donegal, Kevin McStay was as shocked as the rest of us to find out that the win was Mayo's first ever competitive victory on Donegal's own patch.

Cunningham comes good for Celtic

Fri, Mar 24, 2023

Mark Cunningham provided the heroics for Castlebar Celtic in the Calor Gas Super Cup last weekend when he grabbed a last gasp winner for the Hoops' against Ballyheane in Celtic Park.

It was a meeting between last year's league winners and cup winners in what was a hotly anticipated clash. Celtic took the lead from the penalty spot eleven minutes in after Neil Douglas slotted the ball home. The hosts held on to their slender lead right until the third minute of injury time when Nathan Reilly-Doyle netted for Ballyheane and looked like it he was going to send the game into extra time, but Cunningham held his nerve to squirt the ball under the body of Luca Meldrum and to the back of the net to seal the win for his side.

Cup action on the agenda this weekend

Thu, Mar 16, 2023

Domestic Cup action takes centre stage across the football fields of Mayo this weekend with the first round of both the Calor Gas Super and Premier Cups taking place on Sunday.

After a couple of rounds of league action last weekend saw two Mayo sides in the fifth round of the Connacht Junior Cup, with one side progressing to the last eight and the other exiting the competition. Castlebar Celtic made their way into the next round thanks to a 2-0 win on the road against Calry Bohs with the goals coming from Colm Nevin and Luke Kelly. Manulla were no match for Galway outfit Mervue United who saw off the Carramore based side 3-1 with Darragh Byrne getting their goal.
