One man I left out of this column last week in relation to the looming IFA elections was
Connacht IFA chair Padraic Joyce.
Until now, there had been little to no commentary from the west of the country about the elections.

Word has also reached me that Kennedy could be taking a tilt at the title of president, despite previously saying he had no interest in the top job.
Rumour also has it that Maura Canning of Galway is also interested in the VP position.
Things are starting to heat up.
