[the salmon of knowledge]

sorry lads but have to be honest here, we made a bad hand of attempting to get out of DIVISION 3 yes thats division 3 lads.
at some stages in the league we really did play puke football.
i hope i am wrong but i dont see much hope, sorry to drag the mood of optisim down, but Fermanagh, with one game under their belt already, actually have a system of play, are alot fitter than Cavan IMO and this stupid notion that we have a divine right to beat them cause we have better footballers??
what sets the bench mark for the marking system for better footballers???
the divison you play in and results in the last AI does for me anyway.
once again i hope to be proved seriously wrong....

Nothing like a dose of Realism-but its hard to argue with the facts alright.From last years team,we have lost McCabe,Forde and Paul the Gunner wont be playing either.Thats 3 hard lads to replace,and I am seriously worried about our half back line.Id still take Bernard Morris at CHB though,wasnt the best footballer in the world but God he was some animal,we don't have anybody like him to enforce a bit of rough justice.

What do lads think of our Minors chances on Saturday? I havent seen them all year and would only know a handful of footballers on the team.Kevin Tierney is out with glandular fever I hear,he will be a big loss.

Stats are fine but Limerick did just beat Tipperary after a league campaign that wouldn't have suggested that result.

Tierney will be a huge loss to the minors and I hear Shane Reilly broke ribs last week so he must be doubtful too.

Heard Tierney was missing, massive loss. Minors going thru a bad run, but every other year they were going well then collapsed so hopefully they can perform this year... See Louth V Cavan in the Leinster Junior Championship Thurs @ 7:30 in Dundalk.
Anyone heading to this? Any word on the team? Seems like a very strong panel..

[Celt_Man]

JimJim junior match against Louth is on tomorrow night not tonight

[jimjim]

Got mixed up there, Thanks Celtman

It must be an awful shithole you are from Mr Pain if you're too ashamed to name it. Perhaps you are afraid we will learn your identity, there can't that many Mr Pains around the county after all.

going back to Doc and hopes to be given all clear to play on Saturday

I'd be very surprised if he gets the ok - glandular fever really flattens ya, takes months to get over it properly and leaves you very fatigued for a long time after it too

Was talking to Mickey Graham the other day and he said he didn't think Tierney would play, that the team doctor said it was a no no. It might just be a media trick to keep pressure off the team, but I think if he does feature it will be from the bench.

This year's team's build-up has been relatively low key, but I really don't think much of them. Don't think they are as good as last year's team, but then again I doubt Tyrone will be as good as they were again. Down look decent enough, heard they hammered Fermanagh last time out.

Myles, Mr. Pain does not laugh regularly but he came very close there. To think - A punk from Killeshandra has the audacity to call another place a shithole! Mr. Pain is not from Killeshandra, ipso facto, he is not from a shithole. The Pain family name was brought over to this country years ago by visiting monks. Anyway, enough about Mr. Pain, let's talk football.

Cavan will drive Fermanagh close according to the Pain Predictor, a little machine invented by yours truly. However, the outlook is not so good. Cavan to lose by two points. Mr. Pain sincerely hopes the Predictor is malfunctioning for all our sakes. Rant over!

Perhaps Myles is a punk. Perhaps Killeshandra is a shit hole but myles is not afraid to declare where his colours are nailed. Perhaps the Pains live in Maghera or some other "too embarrassing to admit I'm from there" place, come on Mr Pain I promise I will not laugh.

Why does Mr. Pain get such agro? His song a few months back was a masterpiece. But yes, let's talk football.
