You'll be hoping for a Eunans win this Sunday as your other predictions have been scuppered!

Shocks happen lad. I hold my hands up very rarely I'm wrong. Watched the termon game even you must admit they kicked it away. Didn't see convoy game by all accounts na rossa deserved to win. But these predictions were made a few months ago not like yours at half time in a game and you still were as far out as a lighthouse. lol.

For your information I responded to peiladoir not tc. Too many people can't wait to get onto rorysboys without properly reading my posts correctly. Every day is a learning day.. not getting on to you just setting the facts right

Replying To eunans4ever:  "Yes full deck to choose from - Niall O D had a knock and hasn't trained much but looked really sharp/impressive when introduced at HT v the boardroom boys.

No excuses - may the best team win…."
You brought great talent home with you on your return flight from USA :)
Fine lads in fairness, athletic, competitive, pacey and they know where the posts are.
Donegal needs a strong St Eunans with 4-5 regulars on the county panel. For all the criticism on here bout Aodh Ruadh I would love a revival and a contender in the south county… that Bundoran/Ballyshannon region has produced some great players over the decades .
Always thought Conor Morrison had the athleticism and power to be a top county defender. Poor lad has been plagued with injuries. He seems to be featuring regularly this season , still good enough to play county ??

Fair enough. Why didn't you enter my wee predictions competition though? It's not the most demanding of tasks to fire in a few predictions?

I was too late to see it lad. Pity because I've a few pound win on the gaa cship already. I know most of yours won't believe me. Eunans by 5 this weekend.

It's a bit ridiculous that none of the semis are broadcast live. The county board need to get their finger out. Plenty of Donegal people living abroad or not able to attend for work/health/financial/family commitment reasons would warrant it's broadcast. The Donegal GAA fans in Queens/Bronx, Sydney or London and every other corner of the planet as a result of emigration is as enthusiastic and an obsessed supporter (maybe even more) as one who attends every match.

All this talk of this weekend (me included) will be used against either NC or Eunans in the final.
I would love to see McCools make the final I think it would be great for football and Ballybofey.
They could make it such a hostile environment for either Eunans or NC to enter the town.

As for this weekend I really don't know how it will go. At half time last week I thought yeah this is going how I expected but I did not expect the second half performance. One thing for sure NC can't give Eunans the start they had in Glenties at the start of the championship.
It will either be really close win for NC or it'll be 6/7/8 points for Eunans. I just don't see Eunans winning a tight game but could be wrong.

I think both games are available to view online, 13 euro per match.

Replying To AudiMan:  "Hi eunans4ever: Will Eunans go hard after the Naomh Conaill kickouts like they done against Aodh Rua in 2nd half. It changed the game. The rest is history."
Or will Eunans target N.C players off the ball like they did in the group game? The referee did his best and he is the best ref in the county by a mile but he will need help from his officials if Eunans are targeting players off the ball again. It's not manly stuff at all, but the opposite in fact. They did the same against St.Michaels and try and antagonise opposition players to get a reaction from them and once they do, they lie on the ground. The physio and doctor runs on straight away and they claim head injury. They loaded up the line in the group game and gave loads of abuse to opposition players, match officials and match stewards. An interesting stat from club football this year is that Eunan's have got more players sent off against them this year than any other club.
Massive pressure on Rory Kavanagh this weekend. Imagine he could be the Donegal manager as we speak. He is like a Rory Gallagher prototype with all his shouting on the line at his own team, opposition players and officials. I think he is well off as a county manager yet.
In saying all that, if Shane o Donnell stays on the pitch, Eunan's will win the game. There chairman is on record this week as saying on a podcast that if Shane o Donnell wasn't sent off, Eunan's would have won the game. They even went to the Irish News to bring it up again this week.
Looking forward to the Shane o Donnell masterclass on Sunday

Hi ryan: If that is the case the referee and all his officials have a major job to do on Sunday to stamp out any unnecessary carry on. St Eunans seem to be carrying a lot of hurt from last year.

With the weather we're having, it was a bit mad playing three games today on the same pitch. I see the senior C game is now off.

The more I think of the match ups today. McFadden plus 1 on Oisin, O Baoill on JBW, Keegan won't get as much space today.

Who picks up Daire O B, Odhran Mac, Ethan Harkin, Eamon McGee, Big Gavin?

I'll excuse your difficulty in comprehending basic language - perhaps if you maybe read again slowly what I said you might get it - if not ask someone to read it to you.
