On this day in 1958 the infamous case of the first Laois County title being won in court happened.
Portlaoise had beaten The Heath 3-07 to 1-04 in the men’s Senior football final only for it to be lost on objection in the Portlaoise Court House due to an “illegal” player Tom McCabe lining out for Portlaoise in the drawn final on October 26th 1958.
Below are the squad details from both games.
