Cavan way way off the standard at this level unfortunately. That was no more than a challenge game for Mayo

Cavan have to be the most inconsistent team around at the moment? Last championship match able to bring Tyrone to extra time and today not able to give Mayo a decent game.  Tyrone and Mayo are around the same level.   In the league this year able to give Donegal a competitive match and then Cavan was truly useless against Armagh.

Thought Hartes comments after the game were a disgrace. Said he didn't see mckinless incident , but then proceeded to accuse Comer of making a meal of it and theatrics.
It was as  blatant a red card as seen at a game & it more or less ended Comers involvement in the game. McKinless deserves a lengthy ban for it

Comer 100% made a meal of the initial free obviously not of the stamp.

I didn't see the stamp at first and I'm sure Harte hadn't seen footage by the time he was interviewed either!

Probably not but it was as clear as f**king day that the ankle was injured after it. He was hobbling around the place and came off early as a direct result of it.
So that's just bullshit from
Harte.
I hope yaht doesn't turn into another long term ankle problem now

Bishop Pat Buckley, 72

Commemorated eloquently and for all eternity in song by The Slaggarts. Can't remember it all but some of it might have gone like this.

In the mountains of old Mexico
Where the rebel priests we love to grow
We've heard of another, we love like a brother
He's Father Pat, our amigo

If your daughter is living in sin
With a pervert from outside Drumquin
In a broken down caravan, ragged and starvin
Father Pat, he'll take them in

If your girlfriend is ugly and coarse
If you've been through a messy divorce
In the family way, there's no need to delay
Just ring Father Pat Buckley of course

Galway deserved the victory, but I was happy enough with the fighting performance from 14 men for 50 plus minutes.

Def dont agree that we were flat or that our big players didn't perform.

We fought our way back into the game twice from bad positions only to give away 2 goals at worst possible time. First goal terrible one to give away. Shooting in first half cost us 5 or 6 comparatively easy points.

We were probably lucky to finish with 14, very poor discipline from some of our more experienced players which was probably most disappointing aspect of the performance for me.

Not the first time a Derry player has done this. I recall that Rodgers stamped on someone recently too, no call for it. Trampish stuff.

A second consecutive reality check for us. Not realistic contenders, especially with the current management.
Two stamping incidents this year with a Derry team coached by Gavin Devlin. Coincidence?
Harte's success with Louth vastly overstated; Baker took Antrim from div 4 to div 2 and to an ulster final. Would any Derryman want him at the helm?

Do those results today mean Offaly are eliminated from the group, and Down have topped the group? Because of the head to head rule? Will be a total dead rubber the last group game against them.

Yes. Chance to fully rotate the team or keep up the momemntum? Down recieve a by into the 1/4s now don't they?

Wouldn't need to be a lip reader to figure out Mickey's f***ing on the sideline... under pressure. Interview was awful, totally belligerent.
