Having only won trophy which is won half the time by Dublin is not the answer either.

The whole provincial system is based on fake geographical borders but then you could say the whole county system is based on fake borders their is probably clubs whos nearest club to them is in another county but never play them accept from challenge matches.Armagh and louth touch each other armagh and donegal do not.

"There should be plenty of young players there," he said. "They're so competitive underage. It's just getting them in and building confidence.

"I was very impressed with [Jack] Grealish the last day against Wexford. He put in a phenomenal game. They need the likes of [Evan] Niland to bring his club form into the inter-county team.

"You have to get the belief and the trust of the players. They might have one bad game but give them the opportunity to prove that they are willing to step up and learn from their performances. That can all click into place quickly with a couple of wins.

Who's the strongest of that Current Batch Fermanagh? Was fancying Louth before today's hammering. (Forgot even though in Div 3, they don't go in as qualified for
Div 2 oops)

That was a bit odd, given that Louth were not playing the Tailteann cup.

Tony McEntee said that Sligo would be giving it a lash anyway, it might suit them.
Fermanagh couldn't even beat Tyrone.

I can't believe any county won't be 'giving it a lash' though. All of these counties are division 3/4 for a good reason and that is because they are in the bottom 16 teams in the country at the minute. It's a bit like the Europa League though where a lot of counties will only admit they are taking it seriously if they get to a final or actually win the competition. Any county should be delighted to win it, either that or they have complete delusions of grandeur about themselves.

europa league has been taken more serious ever since  they gave winners a ucl spot

Hard to understand this mentality. Down are coming off the back of a season where they haven't won a match yet Barry O'Hagan reckons they should be competing to win Sam Maguire. 

[Rossfan]

After last Saturday, not to mention the NFL campaign, Down footballers should be keeping their traps firmly shut.

That's not what he's saying. He's saying the Tailteann cup is a pointless affair.

He will be proven right too.
