McKenna Cup 2022

[Ard Mhacha 13]

Peter McGrane is Paul's nephew.

I was thinking surely Paul hasn't a son that age!

 

[Armaghniac]

Armagh don't seem to bother in the first quarter.

Considering he was one of the minors in 1992, he’d be around 47/48... then yes, it’s very possible he’d have kids at senior football age.

Jaysus, it’ll be 30 years this year since the 92 minors reached the AI final!!

92 minors that's a huge squad

‘Tis. They needed 3 buses

36 minutes and we were a point down and at 38 minutes 1 up then go on to win 1-12 to 0-11 (Goal McQuillan). Not going to read into this much with it being a McKenna Cup game. With the team named we were looking for the win and getting the player's match fit. Got the result and hopefully, the performances will come. If Kennedy is no longer on the panel then we have done nothing but regress since last season in this department.

Good to win though I hope we have not used up our get out of jail free card for the season

 

[Diarmi]

Always good to get the win but we have a lot to work on. Some inexperience near the end nearly cost us. Ricey already having an impact on Cavan with all the shitty blankets but I'm sure they weren't hard to convince.
The scary thing is we have Dublin in Croke Park in a lock of weeks , might need to up things a bit by then...

 

[ragingbull]

Finally won a game in Breffni Park

 

[Whites]

Lucky to win in my opinion, made hard work of it

 

[Armaghniac]

Some bad wides and some bad tackles in defence, we don't need these. Rian's chipped pass for the last minute goal was a thing of beauty.

 

[PatMustard]

Well done lads. Sounds like it could have went either way, especially in those conditions.

But a win’s a win. Onwards and upwards.

Where does the time go?!?! 20 years in September since we won the All Ireland.

I was thinking morseo that I had seen Paul with his kids at matches down through the years & they didn't look anywhere near that age & I genuinely didn't think it could have been that long ago that I'd seen them

 

[Left Right Out]

Looked like a team that rested well.
Only starting, so will peak in June and July

 

[Muckser]

Tropical night in Cavan folks but the snow coming home was serious until Monaghan...typical tight Cavan no gritters

 

[Muckser]

Some of the tactics where crazy...we went back more than forward with the ball so often. Our kick outs are still a battle and we really need a leader in the backs. Forker seems the logical fit but was in the forwards.

 

[Muckser]

Did anyone see mcGeeney as wasn't him in the bainisteoir bib and didn't spot him

Hope you and all fans got home safe. Was a bad night for football.

Once again Rian O Neill was a class act IMO and as has already been mentioned, the lay off for the goal at the end was just sublime.
So Cavan will be singing the blues tonight...or perhaps they will be singing 'Why does it always Rian on me?'
