Most games I saw Donegal play this  year I thought they looked ok and held their one and arguably should have beat Armagh.  Mayo beat them well but Mayo are just a different level at the minute. They have been playing div 1 which is a much higher level than Div 3  so they would be expected to still win this.

Bad injury to Mark Walsh. He will be missed in the setup. I wish him a speedy recovery.

Agree but it does help if good quality management setups are in place.

That's a hammering. That should ring alarm bells. We are well of the pace in ulster. When is the last time we beat Derry or Tyrone team at underage?

It is good to have him involved. We will need them all against the MIGHTY cavan.

The cavan game is key so a big 70 minutes football needed. We havent played well yet for the full 70 so if we can get the big performance then we will win the game and we then stand a very good chance of promotion.

That's a good 15. Agree I think Charlie smith is a good option because mainly he comes out the field. I not convinced on Jerome yet but maybe a last 20 min sub appearance. The team still needs to find someone who can reliably pop the 50s over and hit frees from both side.

We need the best players in down working together and fighting for positions. Liam kerr and oran murdock are the key men for Down but it clear they need help if we are to progress and Ryan Johnston cetainly helped a lot when introduced. I think also Sheelan Johnston would be a good impact sub if his head is right.

Great result. Pressure was on Down and lavery tonight particularly with the changes  in second half with a number of kilcoo lads introduced. At lot of folk ready to criticise but it worked out in the end. Tough match against cavan next week but we are well capable of getting a result in breffni.

Yeah agree defence is a problem. When we has our noses in front in the second half I would have expected us to see it out but a bad goal to give away...

Antrim are a good team. They have a really good goalkeeper as good as I have seen.

Down won the match smurf. It may not have been the best performance but it is great to get the result. A few of the changes laverty made towards helped get the result.
Just remember Down havent won a game in a long time and tbh the direction we were heading was div 4. Our underage teams have not been competitive in years so he is doing ok considering.

Antrim were excellent tonight. Down done well to get the win. We didnt win a game for 18months so there should no hype.Down will know after tonight they have to try to add to their squad if they are to progress
