Replying To cavanblueman: "I agree, the doom and gloom merchants, the same lads, who gave us no hope after the McKenna Cup and Clare match. Yes, Donegal are a good team, but they got relegated by a very poor Mayo Team, theyre going to be playing Division 2 football next year. The pressure is all on Donegal to put in a good performance in Ulster. Cavan had an off day against Roscommon, but still ran them close, we should be going into the championship with confidence." I believe we are in with a good chance . We are playing better and more watchable football than a few years ago. As I said before this is a shadow Donegal team from their 2012/2014 sides. A little tightening up in defence and a bit more composure by forwards when on the ball and you would see a big improvement . Inaroundehouse (Cavan) - Posts: 975 - 12/04/2018 12:29:03 2092555 Link

A very poor Mayo team? Is that a joke? That Mayo team are unequivocally the best team to never win an all Ireland, simply because they're playing in an era of the greatest team of all time, I.e Dublin. Anyway, I digress, but thats a daft claim. Daft. Cavan_Shambles (Cavan) - Posts: 575 - 12/04/2018 13:16:07 2092567 Link

Each Cavan forward should be given a video of Paddy Mcbrearty scoring points and asked to practice his technique every day from now until the game. His ''roy of the rover' style is a pleasure to watch and heart breaking for the opposition. Declankillann declankillann (Dublin) - Posts: 83 - 13/04/2018 12:14:21 2092799 Link

Forwards are only as good as the ball they get Inaroundehouse (Cavan) - Posts: 975 - 13/04/2018 15:59:03 2092867 Link

Looks like Mackey and Johnston will be needed from the start v Donegal, with McVeety & Caoimhin both extremely doubtful with hamstring injuries, as is McLoughlin.....apparently Stephen Murray pulled his at the weekend. Is this a managemnet/training issue....are the players are being flogged? There was disagreements between coaches/physios and Mattie last year, where they (the backroom team) were overruled, especially in the run up to the Tipperary game....is the same happening again?

You say there was disagreements between all the coaches the Physio and the manager thats a first for sure. Question: who is responsible for strength and conditioning ? Question: who is responsible for tactics?? Question: what roll do the people up in the so called stats box have towards decisions on the field of play?? Question: You have three trainers how much faith would one have on these going forward. Question: Who picks the team is it the manager the trainers the strength and fitness trainer the stats persons or the physio. You have players that are prone to injuries on a regular basis normally the same injuries who do you blame for these or is it alway's going to be accepted these players will be carried no matter what both at club and county level. This is not the players fault if management wish to carry them year on year. The Quiet Man (Cavan) - Posts: 4601 - 17/04/2018 20:28:27 2093663 Link

Mark McKeever brought in as extra selector ahead of Ulster Championship. Heard this from an extremely reliable source. Great move for the County team. YOUWONTCODME (Cavan) - Posts: 125 - 19/04/2018 10:07:07 2093908 Link

Replying To kupa: "Why is it a great move ?" Because he played for Cavan for donkeys years and has a serious knowledge of the game. Currently still playing Senior club football and knows players inside out. Is that a good enough answer? YOUWONTCODME (Cavan) - Posts: 125 - 19/04/2018 12:42:20 2093945 Link
