You're the pathetic ones living in the past.

Of course we're bitter about 2020. We lost to one of the worst teams of all time and would have had a handy all Ireland win that year. Oh well."
Monaghan boys are on here too. It's not a one way street and only a child would claim that

Ah Eddie - you might want to go back over some of the posts here on the Cavan forum from our nosy neighbours when we lost to Tyrone , Donegal and Kerry. You might get an understanding why some of our younger lads took great delight in getting back at these posters. Then suddenly they are the victims.

One of their veterans doesn't seem too welcome even on their own forum - posted here about keeping the car running after the Kerry game and Carlsberg doing Sundays after Donegal beat Cavan (think the mods deleted that one).

If they don't give it out they wouldn't have to take it when the inevitable happens.

We generally have good time for the Donegal crowd - don't get sucked into the poor 'victims' sob story. Some of these lads are obsessed with Cavan GAA even though neither of us have won fek all recently.

Like two bald men fighting over a comb.

Replying To ForeverBlue2:  "I have absolutely no dislike for the man… I just don't think he did a good job with us… Won a covid type strange Ulster Championship but dragged us down to our lowest ever level… He has since ran out on Leitrim and going by last weekend he hasn't contributed a whole lot to the Galway cause… I don't know what Galway thought he would bring to their set up but It obviously wasn't a whole lot…."
I can categorically tell you that Graham was not let go nor would there have been any vote of confidence. He stepped down, the intention to take a break but was approached by Andy Moran to assist with Leitrim. He then offered and accepted the Leitrim job on the assumption that the same panel would commit for the year, but on hearing that a lot of the panel would not commit, he choose not to stay. Prior to taking the Leitrim job, he was also approached by Joyce which is why he ended up at Galway.
But you underestimate Graham and his abilities, so watch this space, the Louth job now up for grabs, he could also end up at Mayo assisting Andy Moran!

But whatever the case, he managed Cavan to their first Ulster Title since 1997 and that is fact and that is in the record books!

Explain please.

Otherwise you're just throwing out insults with nothing to back it up. Which would be very unlike you.

For what it's worth, the only decent team Cavan played in croker was Dublin.

I mean just compare the teams why don't you.

3 wins (against tailtean teams) vs 2 (against div 1 teams)
