It’s Monday morning, with Mayo supporters still preoccupied, I’d say, with yesterday’s game. We’re back in Division One but we’re all now anxiously awaiting news about how bad the injuries to Diarmuid and Cillian O’Connor are. And we’re facing into Championship with a defence that’s so porous it’s simply not funny anymore. But it is Monday so, you know, work […]
Well, we won this must-win game. If you’re the optimistic kind then that might be the point – a very important one, for sure – you’d want to focus on in the aftermath of today’s National League Division Two semi-final against Clare at Cusack Park today. We won alright but at what could prove to be a significant cost to […]
A win for Mayo over Dublin in this evening’s LGFA NFL Division 1 semi-final was always going to be a big ask. It might, though, have been expected that we’d put it up to them in some kind of serious way. We didn’t do this, however, and instead slumped to an embarrassing seventeen-point hammering. A few caveats are worth entering […]
The Mayo camogie team battled hard in the heavy, humid conditions at Sligo’s Markievicz Park this afternoon but Cavan emerged decisive victors from this Camogie Leagues Division 4 semi-final, coming away with a 3-12 to 0-7 victory. I didn’t see all of the opening half – I was toggling between Chrome tabs that had the two live streams from MacHale […]
Mayo’s NHL Division 2B campaign ended in defeat at MacHale Park this afternoon but a defeat with honour it proved to be. Well on top in the first half, they looked set then to clinch the win they needed for promotion. Kildare, however, upped the pace sharply after the break and were deserved eight-point victors by the end. Sean Regan […]
Happy Bank Holiday Monday, all. There was only one Mayo game on at the weekend so that makes for a smaller haul of reports to reference here. And, of course, it was an LGFA game so that of itself makes for less coverage, which shouldn’t be the way but it is. Fun fact – this piece is the fourth one […]
The Mayo women’s team went into this afternoon’s LGFA NFL Division 1A clash with Westmeath at St Loman’s GAA club in Mullingar knowing that, at a minimum, they needed to secure a decisive victory. A win by Galway over Donegal in the day’s other Division 1A fixture would have meant that the two semi-final berths on offer would be decided […]
With most of the action involving us over the previous two weeks taking place on the Saturday, it’s made sense to do this post on the Sunday but the weekend just gone saw matches involving us on both days with the men’s match taking place yesterday. That means shifting this one to today so as a result it’s welcome to […]
The sun shone brightly at MacHale Park this afternoon on a perfect summer’s day for football. One problem though – neither side had anything tangible to play for and the contest we got to see reflected that obvious fact. We won comfortably to top the group with three wins from three games. Our reward is a Division Two semi-final against […]
The Mayo women footballers were edged out of it by Donegal this evening in a sun-drenched MacCumhaill Park in Ballybofey. It was an even contest for the most part but when the home team pushed four points ahead in the final quarter there was no way back for Michael Moyles’ battling Mayo team. It was nip and tuck all throughout […]
