There I was just now saying that the hurling team to play Roscommon at MacHale Park tomorrow in the opening round of the NHL Division 3A (throw-in 2pm) hadn’t been named yet. It has and they’ve even named the full match-day panel for it. Here it is: That’s a bit of a strange team, you’d have to admit, a selection […]
This is just a quick one to provide some details on tickets for this weekend’s three Mayo matches. Let’s start this time with the big one, the men’s NFL Division One clash against Armagh at the Athletic Grounds on Sunday (throw-in 3.30pm). Mayo GAA cautioned earlier today that tickets need to be bought now to avoid disappointment, adding that, due […]
We’ve a Bank Holiday weekend to look forward to in a few days time – the new St Brigid’s one – and we’ve got three Mayo matches to keep an eye on this weekend too. The county’s hurlers are in action first. Having suffered relegation last year, they’re now operating in Division 3A of the National Hurling League, a level […]
The county’s hurlers have endured a torrid time in this year’s National Hurling League and their misery was capped this afternoon when they were beaten by Wicklow in the Division 2B relegation play-off. The Garden County won today’s match at O’Connor Park in Tullamore by 0-16 to 0-15 and so it’s us who drop down to Division 3A for next […]
We’ve named our match day panel for tomorrow’s NHL Division 2B relegation play-off against Wicklow at O’Connor Park, Tullamore (throw-in 12.30pm).

The long, long weekend is nearing its end and we’re coming to terms with our second defeat on the spin in this year’s National League campaign. Oh well, here’s what’s online about last night’s hugely annoying loss to Tyrone. Locals: Connaught Telegraph. Nationals: Irish Times, Irish Examiner, Irish Independent, Irish Mirror (live blog). Others: GAA, RTÉ, BBC, Sky Sports. Photos: […]
The match day panel for Mayo’s NHL Division 2B clash with Donegal at James Stephens Park on Sunday (throw-in 1pm) was named a bit earlier today. Here’s the team and subs we’ve named for this one: Mayo (NHL Divison 2B v Donegal, 20/3/2022): Bobby Douglas (Tooreen); Gary Nolan (Tooreen), David Kenny (Tooreen), Daniel Haune (Tooreen); Stephen Coyne (Tooreen), Keith Higgins […]
Right, time to box away the cold and the wet and the wind and the loss to Kerry last weekend and shift the focus instead to what’s on this coming weekend. There’s a raft of matches involving the county on then, including an All-Ireland final. Chronological order makes most sense in listing these games so let’s start with Saturday. First […]
Just the two Mayo matches today, with a win for the women footballers, while the hurlers lost again. In the LGFA game, victory over Donegal was secured at the Connacht GAA Centre of Excellence largely on the back of a strong first half. Playing with the wind, we kept the visitors scoreless for 24 minutes of the opening half, in […]
