Roscommon’s intense rivalry

There is hardly a rivalry in the GAA as intense as the one that exists between Galway and Roscommon in football.  more >

Drifting down Memory Lane

There are times when the mind drifts down memory lane and I find myself recalling my primary school days of the 1950s.  more >

Kerry still team to beat

Tempus fugit! Time flies and the championship will be soon in full swing again. The Sunday Game will be back soon and Roscommon will be playing Galway next Sunday two weeks in Pearse Stadium.  more >

Seniors register win at last

Congress a credit to Roscommon

The Cumann Gael Peil na mBan annual congress was held in the new Athlone Springs Hotel last weekend.  more >

Roscommon face Rebel spotlight

The decision of the GAA hierarchy to award two league points each to Dublin and Meath as a result of the Cork strike has really thrown the proverbial cat among the pigeons in Division 2A.  more >
