I really don't know what to say being a Galway supporter these days. There is so much wrong it's hard to know where to start. Our management team need to understand that football has changed and is no longer a man on man 6 backs vs 6 forwards open game any more. We need to have some sort of organised defence. At the moment we are too open, teams run through us too easily, our tacklng is lazy and naive. Also we don't seem to be as fit as other teams, we tire more easily. It's one thing not being as physically strong as other teams, it's another not being as fit as other teams.
I think a previous poster made a good point, if we had James Horan as manager things would be different. I think Mulholland is another manager like Brian Kerr, can manage youngsters but out of his depth at senior level. I don't mean any disrespect as he has given his time and effort to better Galway football but we need more at senior level. We need greater organization, fitness and motivation.
I don't think the players can be absolved of blame here. There is such a lack of leadership on the pitch. Only Conroy seems to be taking a leadership role. Some posters are expecting a kick from Galway this weekend. Some of us have been waiting for this kick for 5-6 years. I'm not holding my breath. If Armagh are not complacent and go about things in the right way they should easily, it may not show on the scoreboard but will be visible for everyone there.
