An awful day for Meath football but what bravery and character shown by Mat Costello to line out for Meath on a day where he lost his Father (RIP). An outstanding fella, his Dad would be proud as punch. Thoughts with the Costello family and all in @DunshaughlinGAA.

#TBT to meeting the one & only @laura_woodsy at the @OfficialPDC Darts in the Citywest a few years ago. Not only did Woodsy jump in for a pic but she also took a swig of my blue WKD moments before she was interviewing for Sky Sports. The WKD was 1/3 of a Fat ๐ธ #CoupleGoals ๐

A @MeathGAA Intermediate Championship winner with @GfcBallivor in 1948, my Grandad Pat Rispin took his last breath in the early hours of this morning a month shy of his 95th birthday. It was great to get a picture with him with the Peter McDermott Cup in 2014. #RIP #Legend

Mad scenes in Cortown as St Pats fail to emerge from the dressing rooms for the second half, Referee Keith Sheerin throws the ball up in the middle of the field and St Ultans/Cortown Gaels run the ball into an empty net for a goal. Brilliant and ballsy referring ๐๐

They beat Dunboyne, Ratoath, Simonstown & drew with Gaeil Colmcille - the 4 Pre-Championship Favourites so its fair to say @wolfetonesmeath have done it the hard way. A fully justified success built on hard work, dedication and pure class with more than a hint of 2006 about it!

How good was Mat Costello today for @MeathGAA today when it mattered especially after an extremely emotional for him and all in @DunshaughlinGAA following the tragic passing of Denis Kealy yesterday. Quality player with an even better attitude, future Meath captain!๐ #Meath #Gaa.

Aside from the concession of that extremely sloppy goal, a very encouraging half from a depleted @MeathGAA team. 10 points in 35 minutes in the backyard of the All-Ireland Champs is really good going! #AllianzLeagues #Dublin #Meath

@MrFlynnMeath and myself are available for all occasions and one thing we guarantee is pure unadulterated drama!.
30:30 gone in the 2nd half, into injury time. Down by 6 points and down to 14 men. 140 seconds later, the script is ripped up. The commentary from @Davy_Rispin and @MrFlynnMeath for @MeathGAA is top class. Hard to beat the championship. @OldcastleGFC @wearemeath @meathgaalad1

Small thing and all for games being brought out of Pairc Tailteann but surely any game (Semi-Final/Relegation) at this stage of the Championship with a โฌ15 admission should at least have a programme?? Vast majority of clubs produce their own but several this weekend haven't.
