Quote from: NotedObserver on January 26, 2025, 05:01:40 PMWhat's McKinless fitness like? Is he carrying an injury?

Won't see him in a Derry jersey this year.
Why

Knee injury, apparently

Heard he hurt the knee skiing over Christmas, serious going to get through a full game with a wrecked knee. Massive loss for Derry if true.

Yeah, an operation needed & his season over.

Quote from: lenny on January 26, 2025, 08:34:33 AMWe were missing 4 certain starting players in cluckie, paudie, mckinless and loughlin. We were in the lead after an hour. Tohill was making his debut and up against a really good experienced player. The big difference for me was the bench, tyrones made a big impact and ours didn't. We need to develop a stronger panel for the long term so relegation wouldn't be a disaster as armagh showed last year.

Tyrone probably missing double the amount of starters.

Tohill would be lucky to get a place at MF for Swatragh.

I'd agree with a couple of posters saying we have peaked and are on the way down. Not down to Div 3 or 4 again, but not in the top 5 teams in the country. We have 1 threat in McGuigan, that's been a problem for about 4 or 5 years now, we struggle to bring through scoring forwards.

Quote from: toby47 on January 09, 2025, 02:31:05 PMThis is getting messier by the week.

I can see both sides of the arguments. In general, Not convicted = not guilty = should be a free man. Meaning if a club/county thinks he comes with too much heat & don't want him that's OK, and their decision to make, but it shouldn't get to the stage of higher powers stepping in.

However Gallagher is a sc*mbag. Speak to ones that know him, grew up with him or even know him from over the years, you will hear the same. I would happily see him never get another coaching role. And I wouldn't say that about many coaches. Ask his own brother Ronan why they fell out for years, he's a bad person. I wouldn't want to see him rewarded. Again, that's my own view. And can understand others who think he hasn't been convicted so should be free to go to whatever club/county he wants.

I agree he's not a nice person, but we have plenty of sc*mbags in the GAA who are free to go about their business that's my main issue, it's a witch-hunt, the fact RG is a d*ck just makes the pile on easier

Very hard for Jarlath to draw the line after this one, that's a big issue.

One or be it one of their best forwards in Ruairi Canavan.



Odhran Murdock and Gary Mohan to come back in also. A strong UU panel.
