Pete McGrath was in the irish Times on Saturday. He is managing fermanagh and was going on about how fragile the confidence would be because they usually get beat. And whereas Down have won nathin  since 94 there are players with neighbours and maybe fathers or grandfathers or uncles or clubmates who have won Sam. so they will rise again and win Sam.
