Waterford Footballers Championship Record Since 2000

Waterford Senior Footballers bowed out of this year’s All-Ireland Senior Football Championship following a 1-22 to 0-7 loss to Westmeath at Mullingar.

Since the year 2000, Waterford Senior Football team have played 47 championship games between Munster Championship, All-Ireland Qualifiers and Tommy Murphy Cup.

In this time Waterford have won just five of the 47 games they have played and drawn one game in the Munster Championship a 2-8 each draw with Clare in Ennis in 2014.

Waterford recorded a first championship win in 19 years when they beat Paidi Ó Sé’s Clare side 1-6 to 0-7 in 2007 at Fraher Field. So sure RTE were that the Banner men would win this game, setting up a clash between Paudie’s charges against the county he had won so much with, the state broadcaster had announced that the game would be shown live on RTE. When Waterford won the game, RTE could not back out of the game and so Kerry travelled to Fraher Field for a game when the Waterford Footballers got to play live on Television for possibly the first time.

In Waterford’s 47 Championship games since 2000, they have scored 40-427, eight of these goals coming in one game against Carlow in the Tommy Murphy Cup at Fraher Field in 2007, the only year which Waterford have won two championship games in the one year since 2000. However, Waterford has conceded a massive 60-709 over the same time span.

(M) means that the game was a Munster Championship game, (A) means it was an All-Ireland Qualifier and (T) means that the game was a Tommy Murphy Cup game, introduced while Kerry man Sean Kelly (the current MEP for Ireland South) was president of the G.A.A. clearly brought in seeing there was a need to promote football in the weaker Counties, but got rid off in 2008 by his successor Nicky Brennan from Kilkenny.
