This article is absolutely terrible, therefore I have added the "cleanup tag" to it. Could someone who knows a bit about this topic rewrite it? (I do not know enough myself, I am afraid). A couple of examples:

  • "Leitrim have created a significant impact on GAA history" - I do not see this from the article
  • "Leitrim were a force in the 1920s, winning an impressive haul of one Connacht and zero All-Ireland titles" - this is simply ridiculous
  • "the best player to ever play for leitrim was a young man with the name of thomas hanlon he won 3 all stars in his time as a inter county player." - speaks for itself
  • "The first county to benefit under the parentage rule was also the first to lose their big catch, and the loss of Declan Darcy to Dublin created difficulties in 1998." - I am afraid I do not understand what this means. Pommes104 (talk) 11:16, 19 August 2009 (UTC)Reply
