We got exactly what we deserved today. That was an unbelievably poor performance. A division 2 performance. Very very disappointing. Reformation (Cavan) - Posts: 356 - 02/04/2017 15:42:32 1974097 Link 0 |
Wow! Mayo turn it around and fair play to them, but to lose from being a goal up early in the 2nd half against a team who had nothing to play for is sickening! There'll be questions asked of the mental toughness of this team and rightly so. It's worrying that the bulk of the team is now on the go for 4 or 5 seasons and still looks to have so much to learn. cavanman47 (Cavan) - Posts: 5199 - 02/04/2017 15:45:33 1974103 Link 0 |
Draw with Monaghan,Kerry and beat Mayo in their own back yard. Virginia (Cavan) - Posts: 101 - 02/04/2017 15:47:07 1974108 Link 0 |
Ah sure we don't have the players. We'll be grand in division 2. shannon414 (Cavan) - Posts: 228 - 02/04/2017 15:51:41 1974116 Link 0 |
Yeah right. Following on radio today and it just sounds like a complete shambles. Dr.who (Cavan) - Posts: 24 - 02/04/2017 15:59:31 1974124 Link 0 |
I said it a few weeks. This team will never win anything, they have been in countless finals this decade and Lost every single one. A losers mentality in this group. .Seeing monaghon today i cant see us beating them in brefni so this year could prove to be disastrous. Terrible day. blueskies (Cavan) - Posts: 197 - 02/04/2017 16:43:13 1974164 Link 0 |
If you can't beat this Roscommon team you don't deserve to stay up. Poor from management and the players too. We have to be very careful about thinking that we will bounce back up next year because we were reasonably competitive this year. It simply doesn't work that way, look what's happened Down, Derry, Cork. Inactive x5 (Cavan) - Posts: 1452 - 02/04/2017 16:59:16 1974180 Link 0 |
absolutely terrible stuff - why is it we can never win a game that we are favourites for ? Its obvious we re not a division 1 team anyway , very doubtful if we re even good enough for division 2 . Why all the changes ? What better was Niall Clerkin going to be than Joe Dillon ? Also bringing on two players ( Jack Brady and McEnroe ) who haven't played a minute of league football between them and expect them to instantly perform. And once again bringing on all six subs and have no one left to replace the black carded player second time this has happened. tenyearplan (Cavan) - Posts: 147 - 02/04/2017 17:16:30 1974197 Link 0 |
Very poor display. Roscommon knew what they were doing when they attacked, . Cavan stop and lateral pass for a duration. FoolsGold (Cavan) - Posts: 2831 - 02/04/2017 17:25:10 1974205 Link 0 |
Why did ye have so many changes today.Haven't seen some of your subs at all in the league.Roscommon were under serious pressure to perform today so result didn't surprise us.a lot of cash was put on at the bookies too....ye had a very good league compared to us and if ye avoided donegal and managed to beat monaghan ulster is there for ye.Tyrone have been shown up big time.

I don't know and nobody else seems to know either. McGleenan has been talking down out survival chances all year and kept insisting that the first round of Ulster is the focus. I think we'll look back on the league campaign as a whole and regret that there was an opportunity to stay up which we didn't take. cavanman47 (Cavan) - Posts: 5199 - 02/04/2017 18:12:43 1974258 Link 0 |
Have a read of Joe Brolly lads in the indo today. Sounds like we in Cavan are afflicted with the same OCD system. Another 6 months of this and we won't have a county standard player left in a blue jersey. Hon the club till we see a bita real football. This is gone beyond a joke. Heard Monaghan were mighty today. Look forward to seein it on the telly. shannon414 (Cavan) - Posts: 228 - 02/04/2017 18:17:10 1974264 Link 0 |
That was dire. We're miles off the top teams in Ulster. Ned_Stormcrow (Cavan) - Posts: 1071 - 02/04/2017 19:02:48 1974311 Link 0 |
Tipperary promoted from Division 3 today have better forwards then Cavan in Sweeney and Quinlivan. FoolsGold (Cavan) - Posts: 2831 - 02/04/2017 19:03:15 1974312 Link 0 |
Monaghan mighty today? Depends who you talk to I suppose. They harried, pulled and dragged Dublin for an hour, got themselves in a great position to win the game then fell apart, completely bottled it. They have a mental block when it comes to making that next step against the big teams when it really matters (remember the losses to Tyrone in Croker?). The problem is, we have that same problem too but it doesn't matter who we play - if there's something there to be won we bottle it. cavanman47 (Cavan) - Posts: 5199 - 02/04/2017 19:09:17 1974317 Link 0 |
Good post Ned. How we set ourselves up, conceding kick outs to a team with no midfield and a dodgy back line was just ridiculous. Manager had team in a decent place last two games and went messing with the line out again. Very depressing stuff. Throwing in 2 players that haven't kicked a competitive ball all year. Mackey fitness is not coming up either worryingly.

Hi Guys.. Chatting with a Roscommon man on the way back into Dublin. He was very surprised at the way Cavan allowed his team to play. If you play that kinda game you don't deserve to win, you get punished.It's disappointing to see how much possession was handed over to the opposition. Some Cavan players had their hands on their heads. !! Blowing hard!! 25 mins into the game !! I would fear for Cavan fcotball going forward. upandcomingblue (Cavan) - Posts: 37 - 02/04/2017 19:40:39 1974352 Link 0 |
I was expecting the team to be really up for this game today but alas and maybe predictably it again didn't happen. They bottled it big time. Cavan_Slasher (Cavan) - Posts: 10253 - 02/04/2017 20:26:03 1974390 Link 0 |
Starting Killian Clarke at midfield, that experiment didn't work earlier in league and best result's were got with him in defence. No fight in them. No urgency in getting the ball up the field. Sitting deep and letting Roscommon keep the ball when time running out and 3 points down. Playing with goalkeeper around middle of field for the last 5 minutes when didn't bother going man for man the whole game up to that. I wouldn't have much hope for championship lads.
