Not sure how it looked on TV but they deserved that. If Laois had scored that goal chance near the end it would have been a travesty.

Mullingar is ablaze!

Our Paidi,
Who art from Ventry,
Hallowed be Thy Name.
Thy Lake County come,
Thy Will be done,
On lakes as it is in Kingdoms.
Give us this day,
our Delaney Cup,
and forgive our doubters
as we forget those
who lost against us.
And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us Sam.

Amen.

lol, nice1.

Mullingar was kinda scary tonight, such was the level of celebration. Team allegedly walked across the bridge from meath into Kinnegad. Official reception at 3 o clock in Mullingar tomorrow (Sunday), will be chaotic.

fair play to weatmeath - congrats to everyone involved

from a dublin poit of view its nice to know the only team that beat us so far are the leinster champs. doesnt make me feel good about the possibility of meeting laois but we'll cross that bridge.

Shaque attack

fair play to westmeath they were the better team in both games laois did not show the commitment Westmeath did but injurys didnt help either. i've gotta hold my hands up and say i called it totally wrong. best of luck to westmeath in the quarters.

Judging by the state of the laois players last night i dont fancy our chances against tyrone

Waylander

Great win for Westmeath. I only saw the second half, but they were the better team by a good ways in the second half.

congrats to westmeath, well done, best team won!!

i made a prediction early on in the year (did not post it to boards.ie so i guess you will have to take my word for it) that the all-ireland champs this year would come out of leinster. unfortunately i do not think so now. i would have to say that the all-ireland final is looking to be made up of armagh, tyrone and kerry. i cannot see laois beating tyrone next week (we live in hope).

anyway, this is westmeaths day, fair play to ye.

ps. make sure ye keep the cup clean for the year, we'll ve wanting it back next year

Delighted for all the Westmeath people and players. They were by far the better team and deserved the title. A great occassion and my heart was in my mouth for those last long minutes when there was a chance Laois might rob them.

The problem I have with it is the plaudits that the ignorant, miserable, mizerly, pr1ck of a manager they have will get.

It did prove though that it is better to have a lucky manager than a good manager.

lads - westmeath deserved to win.

the one thing which is annoying me and without trying to take away from westmeath, is that laois team is capable of playing a 100 times better than they did. that is the sore point from my point of view. also, laois are lacking a bit of muscle, same as last year.

i hope westmeath go on and do well but somehow i cannot see them doing it. i will stick with the all-ireland final being made up of armagh, tyrone and kerry (some combination thereof).

i believe micko is extremely pissed off with some players so expect a lot of changes (not for the tyrone match) but for next year!!

Well done westmeath!!
