While I Love To See Wee Country Clubs Doing Well The Future For Cavan Is In The Bigger Clubs

(Oldest Posts First)

Tomsmith here from Cavan Gaels Cavan best club for past 20 years

I have to say at the outset that I love to see wee Clubs out in the Country away from Cavan Town doing well, but I have to say that the future of Cavan football is in the bigger Clubs, not super clubs
Down the years it was the big Clubs, or should I say fellows that wanted to play with big Clubs who did the spade work for Cavan senior teams
Small clubs seemed to have footballers who enjoyed the Gaa game but also enjoyed the afters
To progress we need dedicated fellows who forego the big social circle and knuckle down to a hard training regime
So if footballers in Cavan want to play for the County at a high level you have to train hard and be dedicated

Different strokes for different people.
But back to the County team Galligan will be short changed if he dosent be careful in his selection.
I suggest that he runs a few divisional team trials and seperate the party men from the people who want to wear the Blue Jersey of Cavan with pride.
As I always say Cavan can rise to th occasion like what we did in the Polo grounds in 1947,

Tomsmith here staunch Cavan Gaels supporter
I wrote the above words prompted by the great Mrs T on the 25 November 2023. when Cavan were at alow.
Since that we had a change of Mnager or should I say Galligan has been installed .
In fairness to the new management,( without the benefit of any Divisional team trials ) the hav edone well to keep us in Division 2.
In the past when Cavans back was against the wall we rose like aPhoenix ( Polo Grounds 1947 ) and against the odds we were in an Ulster fianal replay

Tomsmith here.
If you look when men were needed against Monaghan in Clones it was men from the big clubs that stood out and were not found / seen hiding

Great to see the bigger Clubs and also Killgarry doing well in the Championship at the weekend
For the Gaels to earn a draw with Gowna was a great result
Well done Gaels and but for a few calls the Gaels could hav e won the Game
