So we might be playing in Salthill, we might be playing Saturday evening, or Dundalk could be playing Galway United there instead.. 😂 I'd say wouldn't be a problem to move the All Ireland game to Mullingar here instead 🇶🇦😜

James Milner retiring means 2026-27 will be the first English top-flight season since 1956-57 that will not feature a single player who played under Sir Bobby Robson.

Looking forward to Fitzy explaining to Samraj and Ope about how Bearna are over 50 years waiting for a Galway Senior championship 😂😂😂😂

I love the angle taken by @kenearlys on the Champions League final.

He’s absolutely right to dedicate so much time to how Arsenal waste time 🗑️

The drinking water and human life lines 🤣

Havertz wins a throw-in at +5:12, hands it to Mosquera at +5:25, hands it to Rice for the long throw-in at +5:46.

Win a corner from the throw-in at +5:55. Saka begins to put the ball down at +6:25.

The entire first half. A set-piece clock is needed. 10s

Genius! 😂

[Conor McKenna @conormckenna98]

Westmeath have won 5 championship games in a row for first time in their history.

Westmeath in last 12 for first time since 2016.

One match away from first quarter final since 2006.

Westmeath have never been to an All-Ireland semi final.

Went to the cinema. Turned my phone off. Film finished, notifications started coming in. Called my dad. Cried a bit. Can't quite believe it. 22 years. Surreal.

Congratulations Westmeath !! Mullingar is the place to be this evening !!! Westmeath the Leinster Champions will be arriving with the Cup soon !! @rtenews @rtesport

[Des Cahill @sportsdes]

Look at the SHEER JOY for Westmeath in the final minute at Croke Park today!! Westmeath supporters completely outnumbered #Dublin.
Thinking of all the #Westmeath emigrants scattered around the world. I bet they’d give anything to be at home tonight!

[Loaf of Bread GAA @LoafPod]

A Monumental Moment for Westmeath

In this century Dublin have played in 23 of the 27 finals in Leinster. From 2005 to 2024 they lost 1 game in Leinster (the Stephen Bray Meath game in 2010)
