Galway 0-17

Dublin 0-16

GALWAY STAGED A brilliant second-half comeback to knock champions Dublin out at the All-Ireland football quarter-final stage in Croke Park.

It is the first time since 2009 that Dublin exit before the semi-finals.

They were in front 0-11 to 0-7 at half-time, but Galway pegged them back during the second half with Shane Walsh and Cillian McDaid their scoring stars.

Armagh 2-12 

Roscommon 0-12

Armagh have advanced to their first All-Ireland senior football semi-final since 2005 after overcoming 14-man Roscommon at a rainy Croke Park.

Goals in either half from Conor Turbitt and Barry McCambridge saw Kieran McGeeney’s side progress after no shortage of heartbreak at this stage.

For Roscommon, meanwhile, the 33-year wait for a semi-final continues. Davy Burke’s men were below par, while Ruaidhri Falllon’s first-half red card was a hammer blow.

    Heritage week is wonderful, we should all celebrate the great diversity and multiculural heritage that this great little island has endured for thousands of years, And hopefully it will remain fully Irish for thousands of years to come.

    Éirinn go brách.

    Went to a great lunchtime lecture in the Ilac Centre Library, Dublin about the Monto – North Dublin Inner City and its connection with the 1913 Lockout. It makes you think about what we are going through today in Ireland (industrial disputes, homelessness, prostitution and poor inner housing) and did we learn anything at all…
