Didn't Kill, Redhills and Munterconnaght do better in the league than Drumalee?

Drumalee were missing a large amount of players at the latter end of the the league and have more pedigree than the clubs you have mentioned

Not a great start when your most lob sided winner couldn't even win…. A surprise result that for the favourites in the Junior Championship…!

Haha not a great start is right.

Surprising result for sure ! Although Knockbride's championship doesn't start until September, still looks fairly ominous. Drung no bad team, pity the Reilly brothers are not there

Senior: Gowna look like obvious favourites. I thought the level they reached in the Ulster club last year was impressive. They beat Glenties at their own game before letting it slip at the death. Given their age profile, the majority of their squad should be better this year provided that they have trained well. However, 3 in a row is difficult to do. Crosserlough are probably second. Will be interesting to see if the defensive gameplay will be effective. There has been an opening for that style in Cavan football for a while now. Hard to pick a best of the rest - I'd say possibly Kingscourt are being underrated. They can't be as far off as the county final last year showed. New management might give them a bit extra.
Relegation: Lavey

Intermediate: I like Cuchulainns but they need more forwards to take pressure off Doughty. As an outside bet I fancy both Ballymachugh and Bailieborough to reach a quarter final. Killinkere have good young players.
Relegation: Drumgoon

Another year and another Championship weekend is upon us at last and it's definitely got the feeling that it's going to be massive for Cavan and for Cavan Football and put Cavan football not just on notice in the country but put us on a GLOBAL scale and I cannot wait. I've the couch booked up for the weekend with herself but I couldn't be bothered to pay to watch ANY of these games because it is pure shite to watch. These so called geniuses like that skrawny lump of bones up in Donegal , have ruined football FOREVER and I rather sit at home put the feet up and watch I don't know great British bake off or something that's a bit more sexier than this boring club championship. Gowna will win senior with ease again, intermediate is a toss up of a bunch of 13 men behind the ball teams hoping there two forwards kick the 6 points needed to win the game, and in fairness I might go to a few junior games for a laugh but complete joke off a county and I tell ya ANY MAN who disagrees with ANYTHING I've said you know where to find me;)

Ridiculous post. Either you're our already notorious Monaghan friend, Tom, or someone who aspires to be as 'hilarious' as he is. Neither is flattering for you.
