Recap

The 1999 Connacht GAA Senior Football Championship was fairly predictable with Mayo, Roscommon and Galway winning through the First Round as expected versus New York, Leitrim and London respectively. Mayo had over double the score of Roscommon in Castlebar in the Semi-Finals (0-21 to 0-10) while Sligo put three goals past Galway in the other Semi-Final, but Galway still managed a draw before winning the replay by a wide margin in Tuam. The Final, also in Tuam was a closer affair than any match previously bar the Semi-Final draw, with Mayo winning out 1-14 to 1-10 to go on to the All-Ireland Semi-Finals. [References: 2]

About Connacht GAA SFC 1999

It was a single elimination (knockout) tournament which qualified the winners for the All-Ireland Senior Football Championship. The GAA Senior Football Championship is the Premier Inter-County Football Championship for Adults.

Round by Round Reports

Quarter-Finals

Leitrim were made to battle all the way by London after twice going five points ahead, early in the first half through a goal from Ryan O’Rourke and then again early in the second half through. Even though London had fought back to within a point at halftime, the visitors went eight points up early in the second after Donal Wrynn scored Letrim’s third goal. The game looked dead and buried for London at the time, but a gallant comeback was on the cards after two quick goals in succession from Seán Hickey and Fearghal McMahon. The Exiles were just a point down going into injury time with Even Sweeney’s black card compunding the visitiors woes. London were frustrated in the run-in however, with few chances and Leitrim had the last word when O’Rourke got his second goal as Leitrim won by four points in the end. [References: 4]

Sligo won 1-16 to 0-15 points versus New York, but were made to battle all the way. Galway defeated Mayo by a single point (1-14 to 0-16) [References: 2-3]

Semi-Finals

Roscommon defeated Sligo with ease 0-23 to 0-12 and Galway had an even easier victory over Leitrim by 4-20 to 0-9. [References: 2-3]

Final

Galway gained revenge for defeat to Roscommon in the Allianz Football League Division 2 Final, by triumphing over the Rossies by 2-19 to 2-16 in the Connacht GAA Football Senior Championship Final. The margin over victory and total points scored being identical (25 to 22) in both finals. [References: 2-3]

ABOUT Connacht GAA Football Senior Championship

The GAA (Gaelic Athletic Association) has its own brand of Football: Gaelic Football or simply GAA Football, in Ireland, played with 15 players per team, and goals worth three points and over-the-bar (points) worth one point (The goals are similar to Rugby but there is a Goalkeeper to prevent goals). It is like a cross between Soccer and Rugby, with players allowed handle the ball, but may not pick it up off the ground without the aid of their feet, and limited running with the ball [References 5-6].

The GAA All-Ireland Senior Football Championship is the pinnacle to the Inter-County and GAA Football seasons, the Elite players representing their Counties as well as Clubs. It usually takes places in the second half of the GAA Inter-County season, from early April until the September when the All-Ireland finals are played. The format is increasingly complex each year, with the traditional four Provincial Championships preceeding the All-Ireland Championship. [References: 5-8]

Format

There is since 2001 a “Back Door” or Double Elimination system in place whereby Counties defeated prior to the Provincial Finals can re-enter the draw via the All-Ireland Qualifiers, from which four Qualifiers meet the Four Provincial Champions in the All-Ireland Quarter-Finals. From the All-Ireland Quarter-Finals onwards there is Single Elimination (Straight Knockout) in place to decide the All-Ireland Champions and the winners of the Sam McGuire Cup. [References: 4, 8]

From 2022 the Tailteann Cup has been introduced, whereby Counties from Roinn’s 3 and 4 exclusively in the GAA National Football Leagues (Divisions 3 and 4) can compete for a “Division 2” Championship and have the realistic chance of winning an All-Ireland Championship. Counties which reach their Provincial Final are excluded from the Tailteann Cup. [References: 4, 8]
