Lads we are all passionate. Maybe that's why we have a go. Really its nothing personel to the poster that has posted in front of us, maybe they just take the brunt of genuine posters frustration. I've asked and gave my opinion this  few days  on how I think we COULD beat Donegal , I'd luv if posters disagreed, least it would mean they worked it out and didn't agree. Fine, we all entitled to an opinion. But don't call the Terry is 4 weeks in the job let's judge him next year crap!.he's ther. He's responsible.pull the lads together, his lads. Prove you don't need Seanie. Prove you have fight, bottle, energy, cop on, go down fighting. The supporters will think more of you as players, more as you as management, show you are trying, ok your not ready but your trying. As I said before the result is immaterial . But the performance is more than vital.

Myles I right! King myles! A true supporter ! If Kildare win the all Ireland myles will need a new 42 inch!!

You come on here slating me and now you have shown what a brainless low life you are. Maybe you should f**k off and start supporting kildare.

.    There you go still obsessed by Seanie and Kildare.. You don't like it when anyone here goes against your sacred opinion. You been slated on the main board when you tried your 2 pence worth about Johnston. Do you even go to the games?how many senior games were you at in a year? Tipical Internet poster with nearly 5000 posts putting Cavan football to right! Proper sit on the fence clown. Your club probably never won f**k all. Your an arsehole who don't like anyone disagreeing with you or your "I agree with you myles" cronies. Surprised you haven't commented on Seanies latest position. Or do you know the latest? Anyway when you do hear it remember we knew it all long before you. Ya clown ya!!!

Mcderrmott has Ben in the senior team for the last 2 years. He needs to step up and take that "afraid " look off himself. He has been ever present. Never dropped , rarely substituted. And no improvement whatsoever. His average return per game is 0-2 and half that is frees. We can't afford passengers like that. Mcbrearty of Donegal is 4/5 years younger than McDermott and there a bit of cutting about him. He not afraid . McDermott is afraid of his shite . That can be seen in every ball he half heartily goes for. Looking around him expecting the clatter on the back of the head. Just can't talk these players up if they not up to scratch. Change things. Use him as an impact sub til he gains confidence. Take Meehan. Been used as a forward, back, runner, first player taken off, always replaced by Murray. I'm sure he looks at the sideline sees Murray warming up and 9/10 tomes knows he is being replaced. These lads don't know if they are coming or going. As a player on the county panel said to me last night " it's chaos, I feel like packing it in only I've put so much into it since November, I may as well stick it another month. But that's it, ain't interested ever again getting involved with a bunch of players that half are so far up their own arseholes it's unreal." so things haven't changed much it seems

Westside I wouldn't slate Cavan for not beating Donegal but I expect them to put up one he'll of a better show than they did last year in both their championship games. Otherwise yes questions will be asked of certain players who have been ever present this past 2 years. With regard to tipp v Kerry tipp are working on the back of 1 minor success . So that's alot different to our underage success since 2010 ulster final defeat. Yes it's time some of these lads stepped up and proved and showed they have the makings of future intercounty footballers. Lads like McDermott, Fitzpatrick,Meehan,smith have shown no cut about them whatesoever since they became involved at senior level. McDermott for shuch a big man is very one dimensional as to what he can do. In short he is adair of his shite and is a big disappointment .

So takeyorpints would you say that Tipperary should be beating Kerry? They have also had 2 years to plan for the game, if they don't beat Kerry would you slate the management?

.         Never mentioned Kerry, Tipperary. What I'm saying is Armagh will beat Tyrone simply because their season has been geared to that aim. We could beat Donegal if we step up to the Mark because I don't see Donegal as a major powerhouse even in ulster. They play to a gameplan. It hasn't won them any admirers but they happy with it. It will be interesting to see Hylands tactics regardless of the end result. Last years joint managers tactics for that particular game were way off the Mark.Hyland has to take some responsibly for those tactics last year. Let's see what he has learned within a year regarding how to play Donegal. Regardless of the end result let's see how he sets his stall out. That in itself will tell if he has the makings of an intercounty manager. The result is irrelevant in the short term . Bottom line he needs a better game plan than he was part of last year. Let's wait and see

Mylestheslasher Hyland has been involved in some capacity for the last 4/5 years so this is not new to him. Your obsession with Sean Johnston makes it difficult to take your posts and points seriously. Where have I mentioned him in my last post. Your really need to get a grip with that "Seanie " obsession you have. Surely there is some kind of therapy you could get? Or have you tried seeing a councillor ? Maybe best if you approached Sean himself and got the full load down? You can't seem to post with out mentioning him in some form? This whole Seanie process could damage your mind in later life if you don't get this obsession under control. I think you even hoped the Gaels won ulster club now that he is not with them. And for a non Gaels man to wish or hope that is bordering madness!!! Get your self checked out mylestheslasher. I fear the worse for you if Seanie gets any where near Croke park!! You will need a new 42 inch!!!!!

So pretty much hylands cavan team must defeat donegal, last years ulster champions and all Ireland semi finalists or he will be a failure. After 4 weeks in charge! Jesus would you listen to yourself. Is it a coincidence forde and tom reilly are from the same club, what's that suppose to mean? Btw. I didn't mention Murphy as he is unlikely to play due to injury.

Donegal are so beatable because they been playing the same system this last 2 years. granted they have become slightly more attack minded this year, but only slightly. There is always shocks in the Ulster Championship.
Mark my words but Armagh WILL beat Tyrone at home in the first round.
No they are not a better team than Tyrone BUT they WILL have their homework done on Tyrone this past 7 months for this particular game. Watch and see ane quote this post if it doesnt happen.

Yes we are not as good as Donegal BUT surely after 2 years we can devise a plan to beat them on the day. Its whats called good team management pulling off the odd masterstroke especially with 2 years to plan it

Look westside I'm not Richie in disguise or anybody else. Do I question who you are? Time will tell whether Hyland is the best man for the job. It's the players that are stepping up I'm more concerned about not Hyland I firmly believe some of them are not good enough. More worrying is some have stepped up from u21 since late 2010 and they have not improved one bit. That's a worrying factor that no one seems to mention. Sometimes a freshness of ideas from a different coach is needed. Tell me this if munroe of Tyrone had of won the last 2 u21 titles in ulster would ppl of Cavan be happy if he got the Cavan senior job? Just let's see terrys masterplan to beat Donegal. After all he has had 2 years watching them close up.

When has anyone called Hyland the messiah? The best Cavan man for the job by some distance, that's the only thing anyone has said.

And what would i ask would make him the best cavan man for the job??
If it was the u21 win of 2011 why did he not get the Senior job alone instead of stepping down and letting Val have it??
Maybe that was because he was prepared to let Val sink on his own and then step in.
Is it concidence that talk of a players vote of confidence in Val was leaked to the media and the CB did nothing to dispell this rumour until Val had resigned.
Is there any coincidence that Forde and The Co Chairman originate from the same club?
Is there any coincidence that a prospective selector originates from the same club as the present paid Co Secretary Mr McCabe?
Tom Reilly rushed through the joint Managership of VA and TH on the 27th of august 2010. Then he santioned the single managership of VA on sept 2011. Then he proposed the managership of TH and his townie sidekick GFORDE a FEW MONTHS AGO. sO WHEN DOES OUR TOM GET IT RIGHT??? HOW MANY CHANCES DO OUR CLUBS GIVE THIS CHANCE?? IS HE LOOKING FOR 4 YEARS LIKE TH?? ALL QUESTIONS THAT CAVAN FOOTBALL NEED TO ANSWER

And myles as you asked I've no problem with Hyland. After seeing 1 ulster title in 42 years I can hack another 4 years with the so called messiah. Gladly. Because when his 4 years are up and added to his 4/5 as a selector/ joint manager he will finaly be banished to the club football management and be resigned to trying to beat the Gaels as his next great achievement.

With th new square ball rule we have no choice but go man to man with mcbrearty, McFadden and more importantly murphy. Our plus can be our speed in our half backline. And Mark McHugh is the main danger man. He's the "Greg Blaney" of Donegal football. You keep McHugh quiet you keep Donegal quiet. Lads we have had 2 years to pull off a masterstroke. No excuses.

Mylestheslasher... If your going to beat Donegal well midfield doesn't come into it. When did you ever see Donegal beating any1 dominating the middle of the field. As I said in my previous post. Break at pace. Draw the foul or as you say kick the long range score.play the "off the shoulder" stuff and have half forwards willing to support the attacking half backs. f**k this sweeper crap we tried last year. Let Donegal worry how we play. f**k how they play.we are in control. We are the underage kingpins. It's our call. That's the mentality we need to portrait. Have we got a man able to protrait that mentality? NO!! None of toms men are up to the task!!

I think mckiernan might be out so maybe that's the thinking behind McCutcheon at midfield. Dunne probably won't make it either. Meehan seems to have been switched back to the half back line under Hyland.im sure that's a good move especially against Donegal. I feel there's a certain team and system we could use to beat Donegal in a one off game. Not necessarily be our best team but it can be done. Hyland using maloney-Derham and Meehan as wing half backs means he seems to want them to break at pace . That's fine if you can either draw the foul or score from distance or have more importantly players playing off the shoulder of these two who can score or draw the foul.a very disciplined performance can beat Donegal. No back chat no stupid yellow cards for pulling a dragging and definitely no red cards. Discipline has cost us more this past few years as much as wayward shooting.

Keating was tried centre half back against Letrim last week in a challenge and McCutcheon at midfield. Up the middle must be a worry after been cut open in league games especially the Antrim game. Crazy that it's taken til 3 weeks before the championship to experiment with a new centre half back. Shades of this time last year all over again in the build up. Can't understand how so called managers and selectors can't get together at the start of the year with player they want to see as the spine of the team. It's so make it up as you go along. Then again it always has been that way in Cavan. Anyway I hope you all will attend tonight's open day. Be nice to make the players feel like county players for an hour or so even though they miles from that aim. Let's go get a few autographs., clap a few backs, maybe the messiah will fill the cup with ballygowan!!
