Blake (Meath) 10,000 1895 The 1894 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship final was the seventh All-Ireland Final and the deciding match of the 1894 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship, an inter-county Gaelic football tournament for the top teams in Ireland. Matches Summary The first game was a draw, 0–6 to 1–1 (at the time, a goal equalled five points) and so a replay was played. With ten minutes remaining, and Cork leading by 1–2 to 0–5 (seven points to five), several Dublin players were attacked by Cork supporters. Dublin refused to play on and the Gaelic Athletic Association (GAA) Central Council awarded them the championship.High Ball magazine, issue #6, 1998. The Cork County Board never accepted this finding and four months later a ceremony was held to award gold medals to the victorious Nil Desperandum players (in those days each county was represented by the previous years' county champions). At the ceremony the Lord Mayor of Cork said that he "was positively certain that the Dublin Gaels always recognised the merits of the Nils, and now hailed them as winners of the Football Championship for '94."Irish Examiner 1841-current, Saturday, 3 August 1895; Page: 8 However, the final went into the record books as Dublin's third All-Ireland SFC title of the 1890s; they won three more that decade.http://www.independent.ie/sport/gaelic-football/kerry-on-honour-roll-1885579.html Kerry on honour roll Irish Independent 14 September 2009 14 September 2009 Details Dublin (is this the replay or the drawn game?)
