Heard that about King myself alright. Sounds like a great addition considering his playing achievments. Hasn't he has success with Killeshandra as well?


Any word on a trainer for the team yet? I'm liking the sound of the new set-up so far and am feeling quietly comfident. I just hope they plan to build a new team and strip away the deadwood. I would honestly say I would keep about ten of this year's panel .

Got to see my first championship match of the summer tonight with Kingscourt beating Gowna. I was expecting big things given there league position but was disappointed.. Can't see them matching a Gaels team that is as strong as it is.

Barry Reilly got some 'one on one' treatment from a Gowna man throughout.

Of the two games on tonight I didn't see to many lads that you would say are county standard...

Did I hear right?  On Northern sound I thought I heard that Stephen King is going to be a selector with V&T. 

Myles will be happy.

that bollox on hoganstand predicted as much... wonder if he is going in with them too!!

I was reading that earlier alright. Surely he shouldn't be making things public knowledge that he hears while cutting the grass? Who is he? He seems to know alot about the Cavan scene..

He is the groundskeeper for Breffni Park and he should stick to it.... also puts his name to the Cavan GAA website which is nothing to be proud of

[Breffni_Yank]

Groundskeeper? Feck sake I thought he was on a committe or somerthing the way he was going on? Seems very passionate in fairness to him..

So that is Andrews, Hyland and King now. Sounds stronger than the last regime already but would any of those three actually take trainings?

As I said I have seen little or no games in Cavan this year but has there been anyone standing out in club games?

Passionate but not sure if he is wise at all...

Now I'll qualify this statement by saying I wouldn't know as I've never had any dealings with him but from what I hear from second hand sources - King is meant to be a joke...

[Breffni_Yank]

Then why is he getting asked in? In fairness, you would hope he could make a good selector. I mean technically he should be just helping to pick the team and share his experiences with players. I mean the organising of training and actual management of individuals wouldn't be part of his job description would it?

ahh sure who knows...

Lets wait for Myles to tell us all about Kings dealings with teams.  He seems to have a set against him but maybe Myles is being a bit harsh.

Look lads, accuse me of being against king all you want. He never did me a bad turn and I have nothing personal against him but he is absolutley clueless on the line. Don't believe me go and ask ballymchugh who tried ti get rid of him a few weeks ago and instead cut his "expenses" by half. Anyone who wants this guy involved with our intercounty team is an ill informed idiot. I was willing to give this new  management team the benefit of the doubt but if this is their 1st decision then I think we are in for a bad time. Breffni yank - king had nothing to do with success at killeshandra and it is a crime that people in far distant clubs think he did.

[boojangles]

Ballinagh 0-17 Redhills 0-7
Lavey 0-8 Denn 0-7
Belturbet beat Crosserlough also.

Leaving Denn V Crosserlough which should be pretty , and Redhills V Killygarry in relegation battle.

Heard the same about King at Ballymachugh. They can't even field a second team this year for Gods sake.
