It was confirmed officially by the County Board a bit earlier on this evening that our NFL Division One clash with Dublin will, after all, go ahead as was originally planned on Sunday, 20th March. The Board did give the other side’s request for a Friday evening date a hearing but what scuppered the idea from our perspective was the […]
According to the Irish Times yesterday, Dublin are trying to get our league match with them – which is currently scheduled to take place on the afternoon of Sunday, 20th March – shifted to the evening of Friday 18th. On the face of it, this makes some sense given that the Saturday evening appears to be ruled out because of […]
A bit late with this, it’s been a bit of a hectic Monday. As I’m away all of next week too (work, not play, I hasten to add), I’m not expecting the coming days to be much more relaxed either. Right, match reports. As you can imagine, some of the papers had a bit of fun drawing electoral analogies from […]
There’s plenty in the morning papers and elsewhere about yesterday’s match, as well as some stuff about Saturday night’s launch of the Strategic Action Plan and so, without further ado, here’s what’s out there. First the nationals, where Colm Keys does the honours in the Indo, Keith Duggan gets the job of telling the tale of another Mayo loss to […]
In launching the Mayo GAA Strategic Action Plan report last night in McHale Park (a copy of the report is available here), the Chairman of the Strategic Action Plan Committee, Liam Horan, delivered an address which is reproduced here in full. In this Report, reference is made to the colours that, through almost 127 years of usage, have come to […]
I wasn’t able to make it to Castlebar tonight, having already promised my little Jackeens that I’d take them to see the Dubs and Jedward perform at Croke Park this evening (and perform they did too). As a result, I missed out on the formal publication of the Mayo GAA Strategic Action Plan, which was drawn up over the […]
The formal launch of the Mayo GAA Strategic Action Plan is set to take place in McHale Park on Saturday next (19th February), with throw-in for the event set for 8pm. Invites to attend the launch are being extended to all members of Mayo county board, club officers and county board delegates, as well as all members of the Strategic Action Plan […]
As this report on Midwest confirms, the publication of the county’s GAA Strategic Action Plan – which was originally meant to happen earlier this week – has been pushed back by three weeks. Liam Horan, who is chairing the process, has put the delay down to the pre-Christmas cold snap, which meant that a number of meetings of the various […]
This year’s Mayo GAA Convention takes place next Tuesday night (December 7th) in that well-known hotspot Julian’s of Midfield where throw-in (weather permitting, I suppose) is scheduled for 7 pm. The main news story surrounding the Convention is normally Seán Feeney’s annual report and, on the basis of previous years, we’ve come to expect performances akin to this from the […]
There was a mention of the county’s strategic review – or, to give it its proper title, the Mayo GAA Strategic Action Plan – in the comments earlier on and this has prompted me to post some details on it, which the County Board published the other day. As you’ll no doubt be aware, this process is being chaired by […]
