If Carr was on 40k a year, what on earth are the good managers on? 

Myles says Kernan 100k at Galway.....

f**king hell what a disgrace those figures are. Do these managers have normal jobs?

In fairness he didn't the whole 100k into his pocket, thats what it cost the co board to have him. They were putting him on Aer Arann flights and hotels and the like. I'm sure he got a nice chunk of it all the same.

Cavan Gaels 0-13
Ballinagh 1-8

Cavan Gaels held off a spirited late rally from Ballinagh to advance to the last eight of the 2010 SFC by two points at a rain-sodden Breffni Park this evening (Friday).
The Gaels led 4-0 after three minutes thanks to a couple of fine scores from Sean Johnston but Ballinagh rallied well and went in just two down, 0-6 to 0-4, at the break.
However, the champions - who lost full forward Nicholas Walsh to injury after 15 minutes - pulled away in the third quarter, with points from Niall Murray and Niall Smith.
Up 0-11 to 0-4, it looked as if the Gaels would go through safely but Ballinagh rallied well and a couple of Niall McDermott frees and an injury time goal from sub Enda Brady brought them to within two.
But Cavan Gaels, for whom Cathal Collins was outstanding at full-back, held on to go through.
Meanwhile, there were wins for Ramor over Lavey and Mountnugent, Munterconnacht and Ballyconnell First Ulsters.
See anglocelt.ie for more updates as they happen over the weekend.

Lacken 1-14
Killygarry 1-13

Two magnificent free-kicks, one from 45 metres out and the second from 50, from Ray Galligan in the dying seconds saw Lacken take a deserved win and send 2009 semi-finalists Killygarry crashing out of the SFC at Breffni Park tonight (Sat).
Lacken led by a goal at the break thanks to a well-taken strike from Galligan with the last kick of the first half, but Killygarry rallied well and with Martin Reilly causing problems and Stephen McGovern on form from frees, they pulled ahead with time running out.
Enter Galligan. The rangy full-forward who, along with Trevor Crowe and Micheál Shanaghy, was outstanding for the Sky Blues, levelled it up with a 45-metre free before sending over the winner from all of 50 metres with time almost up.
Killygarry came again, Reilly hitting the upright with a fisted effort but a draw wouldn't have done them in any case; Lacken march on.
Earlier, Drumlane were highly impressive in disposing of Drung, with Barry Corrigan netting a first half penalty and John Fitzpatrick burying another in the second half.
Drung came back into the match well but it wasn't enough to keep them in the championship - Knockbride advance, despite losing narrowly to Ballymachugh.
More results to follow.

See anglocelt.ie tomorrow night for the full championship draw.

Drumgoon winning by 2 with a couple of minutes to go and Killeshandra were winning well against the Bridge - so that's Goonies and Killeshandra through and Ballyhaise are out.

And I see Bailieboro beat Killinkere by 3 points so that's the Shamrocks through.

So the quarter finalists....
Cootehill
Bailieboro
Drumlane
Knockbride
Kill
Drumalee
Drumgoon
Killeshandra

Anyone know what time the draw for the Quarter Final is?  Think it's gonna be up on anglocelt.ie this evening maybe??

[Dougal]

draw will be made after the redhills kingscourt match id say,so about 9 o clock.

good win for us today,hopefully we can keep up this kind of form and we should fit to win another game or two depending on the draw.some tough teams left in it,could be a couple of real tight games.

[BallyhaiseMan]

Back to the drawing board,congrats to the Goonies and the K'shandra lads Dougal and Myles and best of luck in the qf's.
At least next year,the hype and inflated  non sensical expectations will be gone.

See you all in about 2 months,just pissed off with this football crap at the moment.

I agree the expectations proved to be too much in the end. The amount of people who had us as clear favourites was surprising.
And if we take a step back in fairness we have had the toughest group by far for 2 years running which has done us no favours.

There is something seriously wrong though when we can look so good in the league and be so bad in the Championship. I personally think too many teams don't care about the league, just the Championship and the level of intensity is a different world.

The writing was on the wall after the first game when you look back.
