Great stuff unbelievable that Armagh never dropped a Man back in front of the Full Forward line. We will never see that against Fermanagh, will be another dog fight and hopefully this time we will bite. We wasted a lot of simple chances should have been out of sight yet probably lost the midfield battle at times so a funny game in ways. Still just cannot understand how Armagh never dropped a man back so I would say Grimley will come under the microscope for that. We definitely out worked them so that is a good start. Is the next day in Brewster ?

1     Official Jim Smith Gene pool alive and well and relations still playing for Killinkere
2     Conor G transfer not signed by BBoro went to CCC they would not approve it. So some big pow wow organized by county board and Conor and BBoro must have patched it all up


Think we have a team that will WORK and OUT Work Armagh bounce of a ball and we might do it. If we WORK hard enough

Any word from the camp for the weekend is everybody ok

The word from on high is a full round of fixtures go ahead Sunday  -- Win, Loose or Draw. Will be interesting to see does that happen if we win.

So the league should finish round Christmas even before anybody chats about championship. Own personal belief is that starting in July and running right through is right as starting now then stopping the championship is wrong

So basically we need Antrim to do Cavan two favours, to gain promotion and we beat Roscommon which will be tight enough

Team          Pld    Won    Draw    Lost    For    Against    Diff    Points
Fermanagh    6    4    1    1    94    72    22    9
Monaghan    6    4    0    2    90    68    22    8
Cavan            6    3    1    2    85    72    13    7
Roscommon    6    3    1    2    70    75    -5    7
Meath            5    3    0    2    71    74    -3    6
Antrim            5    1    2    2    67    69    -2    4
Sligo            6    1    1    4    75    92    -17    3
Wicklow            6    0    2    4    73    103    -30    2

s game in breffni at 8 tonight, anybody any idea on a team

Just so you all know Conor Gilseanin tried to move to Killinkere but transfer did not go through. So will be interesting to see if he gets a game with Bailieborough now. Anyway leaving all that to one side very dissapointing that Cavan did not show any real appetite for a battle on Saturday night. Our big men in the middle did not really seem interested once they had men standing on their toes. Which is hardly a very original way of dealing with a midfielder so they may get used to that treatment. At this stage if we can hold Div 3 with two good final results and get another strong run in the U21 then  maybe can still  be seen as a positive spring.

Cavan have been doing fitness tests and rule book test on refs for a few years now. With at least some controversy in ref circles with one lad being told he could not get championship games because he was failing part of the test.

Shaping up for a big game vs Fermanagh so should be a bit of fun in Breffni. At least means there will be a bit of interest in the county. Barry O sounds like he is on the way back and Ward is a threat so will be a tough outing

This is what we got this morning  the League will be Home and Away

Championship 2013
Teams who were relegated by the 2012 league can apply for Championship status.
This must be received by the Secretary by noon on Friday 4th January.
Also applications for Amalgamations must also be in for that date.
There are no plans to link League and Championship.
When we have confirmed numbers for the championship we will discuss the format at the first County Committee meeting which will be held on Monday 14th January.

Gaels were absolute value for the win against assan gaels. Game should have been over at half time really and Paul Graham really ran the show at periods

Racism in any form is serious stuff and our disciplinary proceedings in Cavan sometimes have a nasty habit of brushing shit under Carpets. Not saying that this happened but can we be 100% sure. The GAA has to lead the way in 100% getting rid of this shit.At the moment it may only be a caution and is very unclear what the punishment is for Race issues. This needs to be clarified. In Killinkere we had a nasty incident where somebody said something horrible to a young lad from an opposing team which ended up in that person walking away from CLub at an underage meeting where they felt it was Ok to throw shit . Maybe not right either but if people cannot allow some young lad of colour to kick a ball without some form of a snide remark it has to be a disgrace

ANybody see any of the U21 games round the weekend

Only saw second half of the Lacken / Cootehill game put a pacey Cootehill team really put it up to Lacken. Had a couple of chances including a free at the end to win it. The opinion around where I was though was a draw was fair enough as Lacken could have been out of sight at half time.

The senior final was poor enough and Kingscourt just did not seem to be able to push on and win it. The goal sealed it for Mullahoran who basically just hung in there and then took their chance

Does not look like Gaels took part unless there is another section
