You are deluded Lenny.

You townies would be more Ulster Scott I would think 😀😀😀

Lenny either you weren't at the match and making that up about Derry on Saturday night to your stupider than I though
This was dire. The only crack I had was sitting beside a young Slaughtneil boy who said it didn't matter about who was manager as Christy would manage and pick there team like he has did for the past four years

Did anyone ever hear of anyone getting called upto the squad after Keenan and McFauls exits?

Not a word.

[It wouldn't have happened under Eamonn Coleman]

Derry manager Damian McErlain plans to see out the remainder of their Allianz FL Division 3 campaign minus the services of the Slaughtneil contingent.

Nemo Rangers brought the curtain down on Slaughtneil's All-Ireland Club SFC adventure last Saturday but the Oak Leaf boss is prepared to let vice-captain Brendan Rogers and his five club-mates sit out the final three rounds of the league in a bid to have them fresh for the championship.

"We can't rush them back," he told The Belfast Telegraph.

"We want them coming back and being an addition for us. If you are forcing men back who are just after a long season like that - in fact, they are not after one long season, they are after two long seasons - and two years in a row of that, mentally and physically, there is going to be a toll on them.

"They need to normalise their lives a bit, for a few weeks anyway and see where that takes them. For us, it is more about them."

Rogers is the vice captian and he ain't going to play in three vital games to avoid Division Four, are we having a laugh.

It did. Ask Damian Cassidy. 2002

He wouldn't be in my circle of friends-similar to you and Damian😜

Damian and me are good friends, he will always say hello to me.

Big boots to fill but by far the best team in the county; a golden goose or a poisoned chalice?

I wouldn't be taking it. If the names rumoured to be considering travelling are true, I'm not sure they'd still be by far the best team, but there'd still be the huge pressure to succeed.

who has been rumoured? In the past they've paid big money for outside managers

It wouldn't be fair on them for an anonymous Internet poster to spread names based on second - hand rumours but I will say I'm not talking about substitutes.

What integrity!  Surprised Moran has gone, if true, with a big chance of 5 in a row.  Not even the great Bellaghy team achieved that.

Whenever the great Bellaghy team was about there was other good teams in Derry and Ulster.
Let's be honest and call it for what it is. Slaughtneil came at a time when Derry and Ulster club football was at its weakest ever.

Everyone from Bellaghy with a social media account boasting about hosting a bloody colleges match. What will they be like if they ever win another championship?  A wee  bit embarrassing

We put on a show young man. We were the talk of Ulster last night on how to stage big games.
Some club. The next instalment of championships are about to roll.
Bring the county games to Bellaghy

LOL. This time last year tfal was boasting about the glorious youth coming through in Bellaghy and after the embarrassment of the loss to Draperstown in the minor final all they can celebrate is a big crowd at a schools game. How the mighty have fallen LOL

Bravefart, that was a hard one to take. We were the best team in the county by a country mile and screen nearly won Ulster.
But it does back up my argument about the '93 managers. Damian Cassidy and Danny Quinn were the managers

Agree with most things you say there Rawhide. But when I looked at the programme and saw that the spine of the team were all from Swatragh and Glen, I thought St. Mary's have a chance here.
It's strange that we never got one decent manager or coach out of that 93 team

Slaughtneil shit in the nest yesterday

Too much time in the gym hi. Not enough on the field.  Rife.  Development squads.  Clubs. County.

On that note, I seen a tweet recently from a club detailing the training schedule for the Under 10's (P5/P6). The schedule covered about 4weeks.
The U-10's were training twice a week - 1 session was Strength and Conditioning (45mins) the other was training matches (90mins).
Is this normal around the clubs in Derry?

yeah,I seen that. Does Tfal have an opinion on this?

Yes I do. It's typical of the bullshit that is happening around this club at the minute.

On another topic. Something that doesn't occur on this site too often. People talking sense.

Estimator -Good post.

Valeman - The best post on here in years

It could be worse boys. Look on the bright side. The hurlers are doing well 

The hurling was good. The strength and conditioning and nutrition is working well

Two things
Toby, it's none of your business whether we put in an u21 or not but I don't agree with it

Wild weasel . I've been reliably informed that the fat Douretrasna referee had a long conversation with Harry Tohill after that game
