Drung play better when galligan isn't about? Thats a bit of a stupid statement considering he was  their player of the year last year. Great to see the leaguers start so well but they did the same last year too before fading out towards the end of the season.

Did he make that up himself or is it just you saying it?

I didn't mean a formal player of the year award but from what I heard he was their main man last year. Do you have something personal against Galligan, you should declare it now if you do. You seem to be implying he is an arogant sort of lad - I don't know him so I wouldn't know. From what I've seen of him he is a worker and an honest footballer and Cavan don't have too many of those.

He done alright but wasnt main man.  

I agree with everything you say boojangles.

I have nothing personal against him, he is a honest man and will always do his best but lets himself down with his performances too often.

Was McCormack playing for ye Boojangles? Heard he had a slight mishap (say no more). Bad result for ye. Wouldn't get too concerned about the leaguers. No full forward line. Teams need to drop their half-forward line deep to counter their strong running IMO. Haven't seen the stars yet but a very good result for them yesterday. And anyone see the rories win?

"he done alright"??   Not bad for a lad that "can't catch or kick", two of the basic skills in football i would've thought.  There is too much expectation at club level for county players to be outstanding  every game they play. Everyone is entitled to an off day. You've already upgraded him from useless to alright so he'l soon be man of the match at the rate your backtracking cavan4ever. Hard to see how they'd play better without one of their best players, good job your not picking the team. Would they play better without Waters and James aswell ?
""he is a honest man and will always do his best but lets himself down with his performances too often"   If he always does his best,how does he let himself down?

Was thinking you would take the bait 

He did alright last year but was poor last Saturday dont think there is any backtracking there. 

If you seen him regular you would know how good he is at catching the ball and his shooting does be terrible by times
What i should have said is that he always trys his best.  He lets himself down by playing poorly i know that he sets himself high standards and would be annoyed with how he played at the weekend.

Just a quick comment on the Castlerahan v Denn game on Saturday evening, Castlerahan were very good but I dont think I have seen a team as bad a s Denn in a long time, in my opinion they will definitely be relegated this year, dont see any hope for them. Castlerahan Kicked 16 points, 12 from play and probably should have had another 5. The three county men were playing for us, Ronan centre half back, Cian on the 40 and Sean full forward - wearing a mask to protect his nose.

Enda was playing surely,at Midfield and was outstanding.Didnt hear anything about a mishap?? I wasnt chatting him after match.Would you PM me?

Like myself he wasnt born with superb skill or talent

NEWSFLASH! Boojangles DOES NOT have superb skill and talent. Repeat, DOES NOT have superb skill and talent.

Whats the point in that?

Ballinagh beat Lavey at the weekend in a very tight and hard fought game. Lavey were largely dominant at midfield but luckily a much-improved performance by our lads at the back denied any advantage. Ballinagh weren't their sharpest up front but just did enough to get a gritty win and most importantly two points. Damien McInerney, Podge and Niall McDermott were probably the pick of our lads.

The Rories are up next. I didn't hear much from their weekend defeat of the Gaels, but they will be very hard stopped.

I find it hard to believe you would post a comment insulting one of your own clubmates just so i would take the bait. Why not insult my club like you did before, begrudgery seems to be your strong point. I dont see many other posters running down their own team mates, most people would naturally defend them. The only conclusion i can come to is that you have an axe to grind with the lad and you feel that an anonymous message board is the best place to do it. Fairly pathetic if you ask me. I doubt if your as brave to his face cavan4ever. As for backtracking, do you actually read your own posts? I happen to attend alot of Drung's games as I live in the next parish and your talking shite
