Bcb - can you go further and say whether he ever played for Crossmaglen?

I agree with BCB that Kieran isn’t going anywhere and I see that Enda McGinley has just been ratified as the new Antrim manager. If this week’s media reports are to be believed that Tony McEntee is keen to get involved again in the county scene and if Burren are to be demanding of full...

Fair play to Cork. The underdog always has a puncher’s chance but rarely gets a second chance (in replays etc). Next weekend we have that same chance. Has the venue been confirmed?

Championship games are for winning and we won, albeit, we don’t make it easy at times. Focus must now turn to a team that are seasoned at the highest level and are undoubtedly ahead of us but I feel we can have a go at that them. We will need to be very disciplined as our lack of discipline is...

A few thoughts:- * Delighted to be a Div 1 team again - well done to the players and management. * We now have a decent squad with players available in every position which is great and should create healthy competition. As much as having a settled team is great so too is competition for...

Just home. Very pleasing performance in difficult conditions. Quite a few impressive performances but hat’s off particularly to Aidan Forker - he has become a key player for us. Well done to Geezer and all of the lads.

Anybody hearing anything about the state of Brewster Park being playable or not? Clones on standby?

Surprised at that team. Left wondering if we have more injury problems than we know or has the team been picked specifically with Kildare personnel in mind.

How about, if everybody fit, Hughes Burns McKay Morgan Cumiskey Donaghy Forker JOB Grimley Soupy Grugan O O’Neill Turbitt R O’Neill Clarke

Looks like the weekend will end with Laois on 3 points and every other team in Div 2 on 2 points. Reflecting overnight on the game and reading posts on here, I am thinking I was one of those who highlighted the fact that Cavan cut through the centre of our defence with ease last week. The...

Just home. Bad day at the office is an understatement. I have no wish to criticise individual lads on a discussion forum but our first have was as poor as I can remember - we looked leggy and the tactics took us back 4 or 5 years to every man behind the ball and conceding possession from every...

I would consider a couple of changes - definitely would have McKay at Fb to move Donaghy to CHB, perhaps at the expense of Conor O’Neill to strengthen the middle of our defence and I would look to have a strong partner for Grimley at midfield - could bring in JOB at the expense of Sheridan or...

Overall, very pleasing performance tonight. Not sure if Cavan are poor or were simply made to look poor. Two points to build on heading to Laois - we carried the ball into traffic on too many occasions and at times, particularly in the first half, Cavan were able to cut through the centre of...
