Shane Roche and the backroom staff deserve so much credit for making Wexford defensively solid today while actually wanting to play football
#Wexford
Secrets out now.
Delighted to start my first shift as Weekend Producer on Off The Ball.
To say it’s a dream come true doesn’t get close but the hard work starts now.
Join us on Newstalk until 5pm
#OffTheBall
So that’s that! My final Sports Hour finished and we managed to get through without too many stumbles.
Thanks to everyone for all their help over the last 5 years. It was an honour and a privilege to play a role in promoting Wexford sport. We’re incredibly lucky to have it
1/2
Mossy Mahon played in the 1998 county final when Raps were beaten by Rathnure. He's about to win his first senior medal in 2021. What a servant. That's what the GAA is all about
#Wexford
Check the date.
Jonny Dwyer was preparing for his county final winning moment as far back as lockdown.
Practice pays off
Hattip to Seamus Byrne who spotted it first

Hi folks. I'm back on air with
@SouthEastRadio
today after a little break. (Just following guidelines, I'm fine). Unfortunately, it's only a short return as I will be temporarily laid off as of tomorrow evening until the crisis is over. It's hard for me to write this 1/4
Wexford are 3 from 3 in the hurling league. Oisin Pepper is a brilliant option off the bench. Missing Liam Ryan in the backs today and they never looked too concerned. The Recks were excellent. It's only the league etc but man that feels good as a fan
#Wexford
Darragh Egan will have Willie Cleary and Niall Corcoran as selectors with the Senior Hurling team.
Graham Byrne and Billy Walsh are also part of the backroom team.
Keith Rossiter will take charge of the Under 20s.
Exciting times ahead
#Wexford
New
@OfficialWexGAA
manager Shane Roche will have
@antomasterson1
and Philip Wallace as part of his backroom team for the upcoming season. Two brilliant appointments that'll bring important experience to the side. Best of luck to them
#Wexford
Wexford about to go 5/5 in the league. This was a big test today and they passed it. Don’t mind the talk of shadow boxing. Wexford are building momentum which will carry them into the championship. The hype is real.
#Wexford
I hope Santa knows that we’ve moved.
A long and winding road but finally time to start a new adventure with the woman I love.
Happy Christmas to one and all.
Former Kerry great Paul Galvin will be confirmed as the new Wexford football boss subject to ratification at the next County Board meeting
Galvin won 7 Munster titles and 4 All Ireland's with Kerry
His backroom team will be confirmed subject to his successful ratification
There’s a major fire just off the Main Street in Wexford town at the minute. This picture was taken in the car park out the back of the old Colman Doyle building. Emergency services on the way. People evacuating
#Wexford
Not to get too over dramatic but I think the Dublin footballers should be punished. Strip them of the 2011 Leinster title I’d say. Award it to whoever the other finalist was that year...
Good Counsel College have won their 4th Leinster Senior Hurling A title.
Danny Glennon's goal helped them to a 1-22 to 14 point win over Dublin South Schools.
Add 2022 to 2009, 1997 and 1995
#Wexford
Thanks for all the lovely birthday wishes today.
Doing what I love this evening bringing you all the sport on Newstalk and TodayFM.
A Lowry win would be a lovely present to finish off the day.
In Wexford Town we have this amazingly unique way of measuring the heat by counting the amount of Pennys' workers who are having their lunch by the quays. We're currently at a sweltering 9 workers
The fire has been mostly maintained at this stage. South Main Street still closed off and will be for the afternoon. Well done to the brilliant work by the emergency services in dangerous conditions
#Wexford
In some good news,
@OfficialWexGAA
star Conor McDonald has had his red card from last weekend's win over Dublin rescinded and reduced to a yellow card. That means he will be available for the game against Carlow this Sunday in the league.
#Wexford
Lee, Conor, Dee, Rory and so many others played out of their skin for their county and showed real heart. You can't fault them for a second. A better team won today and that's the truth of it. It hurts now but we can use this to come back bigger and better. Up Wexford
Matt O'Hanlon, Jacko, Conor Mac all brilliant today. The turn around from the Walsh Cup was unbelievable. The defense was ferocious. They had to dig deep but that's a huge scalp already. Lovely stuff
#Wexford
BREAKING
Kilmore Seafood Ltdd has announced it's to cease trading after suffering significant financial losses due to Brexit.
The company, part of the Errigal Bay group is entering into "a collective redundancy process with its 32 employees"
Huge loss for the area
#Wexford
@TVsCarlKinsella
I’m literally waiting for a govt press release justifying it because “140k is a nice round number. We would have gone to 150 but we didn’t want to take the piss”
Wexford are still alive in the All Ireland Championship. A 4 point win over Kilkenny means their summer continues thanks to Dublin's loss to Galway. Chin, Reck, O'Keeffe all outstanding today. The Jekyll and Hyde of hurling found a way.
#Wexford
Thank you to Liam and all our contributors for the help and insight making me sound more intelligent than I am.
Thanks indeed to the listeners as well. I couldn’t have done it without you and it was a pleasure to bring you the news

Oulart are the Senior Club Camogie All Ireland Champions!
A hattrick of goals from Una Leacy and another from Shelly Kehoe means they reign supreme for the third time in a decade.
Full reaction on the Sports Hour from 6 on
@SouthEastRadio
#Wexford
Gorey Community School are the Paddy Drummond Cup champions for 2022. All Ireland champions and well deserving of it too. Some fantastic performances. Playing the game the right way. Jack Higgins and Rian Fitzpatrick, wow
#Wexford
It’s the year of our Lord 2004 and Dancing At The Crossroads is still not on Spotify.
A travesty. How’s a man supposed to get ready for the championship?
Darragh Egan was very interesting post match in the Walsh Cup today. He was speaking about Gordon D'Arcy's matchday role with the Wexford Senior Hurlers. The former Lion helps to keep the players focused and strengthening the mental side of the game. It worked today!
#Wexford
If someone told me to sum up Junior B in a tweet it's this.
Rathnure and St Anne's go to extra time in their final replay. Ref sends off a man but someone has the rulebook on hand so the decision is reversed.
What a sport
Wexford are Division 3 camogie league champions. Alan Brennan's side have beaten Armagh 0-13 to 1-8 in the decider. Well done to everyone involved in the
@wexfordcamogie
side!
#Wexford
Oulart The Ballagh are back to back Leinster champions after a 1-13 to 3-5 win over Dicksboro. They had to hold on in the end but Una Leacy's penalty means they are queens of the province once again.
#Wexford
That is a big result for Wexford. Needed to show that last weekend wasn't a fluke. 2-20 is a decent score even leaving so many behind you with wides. Rory is back firing, Matt O'Hanlon was good again. 2/2 with Foley and Chin. The excitement is building
#Wexford
Wexford County Council have expressed deep regret and sorrow at the death of one of their workers this morning.
The man was killed by a fallen tree in the Ballythomas area near the Wicklow border while clearing debris from Storm Eunice
#Wexford
Conal Flood has been a gem of a find. Always good for a point or two, has a brilliant range of distribution and can man mark as he has on Crotty in the second half. All rounder
#Wexford
Given the bit of free time I will have from next week, I'm willing and able to take on any work you want to send my way. The main thing is that we all stay safe and well. Look after yourselves. Thank you and up Wexford 4/4
Really starting to look like there will be no sport for the rest of this year.
That’s fun to hear as a sport journalist.
Please stay home and help us beat this as quick as possible.
I want to get back to worrying about intermediate football and junior soccer again
Delighted to see Wexford woman Michelle O'Neill will be an assistant referee at the Tokyo Olympics this summer. The latest in a long line of achievements for her
#Wexford
Enniscorthy's Festy Ebosele has been called up to the Irish senior squad for the massive Nations League games on the way next month. Onwards and upwards for him
#Wexford
Just the two goals for Una today as she helped Oulart The Ballagh go into another All Ireland final. That's after a 3-11 to 2 point win over Scarrif today
#Wexford
Una Leacy with a bit of magic for
@OulartC
again today.
She's 33, she has two bad knees but she got two goals again today and she's still the most lethal finisher in the business.

Wexford now has the lowest 14 day incidence rate of Covid 19 in the country.
Fewer than 5 cases reported today means that the rate in the county now stands at 49.4 per 100 thousand.
74 cases have been recorded in Wexford over the past 2 weeks.
#Wexford
Seriously bad flooding all over county Wexford at the minute. The Enniscorthy to New Ross road is impassable in places as is the Clonroche to Adamstown route. Stay safe out there
Delighted to join the lads at

Absolutely delighted for Ferns. Deserved Senior county champions. The celebrations tell their own story. Martin’s will have more titles but today is Ferns’ day
#Wexford
Sad news from the county this afternoon as the body of a woman has been recovered from the River Slaney today. The remains were discovered around 200 yards south of Enniscorthy town. It's believed the woman was from the town

Netflix has a new reality show called Marriage or Mortgage where couples have to choose between a big home or a big wedding. It’s presented as fun and quirky instead the terrifying indictment of modern life that it should be
Breaking: A body has been found in the search for missing Wexford fisherman Willie Whelan off Hook Head. He was one of two fishermen who went missing following the sinking of their boat on January 5th
#Wexford
Ultimately Wexford need a new direction. Davy has to be given credit for inspiring the lads to believe that they can take on anyone but the style of play has run it's course. Good news is Conal Flood and Gavin Bailey look like players for the future. Onto next year

Ref blows the final whistle on the kick-out, and Wexford win!!! Great performance all round, and massive congrats to team and management. The prize is a match here against the Dubs next week.
It's looking like turnout is over 25% overall in County Wexford so far with 5 and a half hours of voting gone in. Could go over the 65.9% recorded in 2016 if this rate keeps going. Going to smash the by election turnout anyway

Someone in Wexford Town is celebrating today after winning a massive €116,054 in the Euromillions last night.
The ticket was bought in the Daybreak on the Main Street
The winning numbers were 23, 24, 26, 34, 50 and lucky stars 02, 04
#Wexford
That's almost as hard to take as last year. Wexford gave themselves a mountain to climb at half time and yet nearly did it. A fantastic effort in that second half to make it as close as they did. Unfortunately it's the same result. Hard luck to Lizzy, John and the women.
#Wexford
Oulart The Ballagh are into the 2020 All Ireland Senior Club Camogie final after a 2-15 to 1-11 win over Derry's Slaughtneil.
Brilliant for the Wexford women, reaction on the

Sports Hour at 6
Congrats

James Lowe in hospital, Mack Hansen off early, Tadhg Furlong not happy when he came off.
I'm sweating on the injury update tomorrow. God we can't enjoy anything
Checked out the price of petrol at 7 different stations in the Enniscorthy area.
Lowest: 197
Highest 209
12 cent spread a litre. Only 2 of the 7 stations under 2 euro and even then just barely.
This can’t be let continue
