Went to match purely to watch it and enjoy it.Did not record it.However I cannot let the occasion pass without saying that I thoroughly enjoyed it.It was a tough relentless match played by two teams neither of which was willing to concede defeat.It deserved a summer setting not a late November one.Really some effort will have to be made to run hurling competitions in weather that encourages the display of the gamut of skills that the art form deserves.
Both teams gave their all and no mercy was asked nor given.All within the rules of the game of course.In all fairness to the referee and his four umpires ,they did all they could to keep the game within the limits of decency and allow it to develop.A good test of the state of supporters hearts.
We won by a point and were delighted to do so.Navan were bitterly disappointed and well entitled to be.They missed a very scorable point with the last puck of the ball.Hard to take.
But take it we will.Hard luck Mahonys.
On a roll now.Bring on the final.
