Did indeed Cadence. Anyone else around Dublin this evening want freebies to the DubHub in Cassidys this evening??

[The Hill is Blue]

Yep indeed Heffo. Donegal are very sure of themselves. Me Eniff declaring we wont be able to cope with the blanket defence despite the fact our 21's coped comfortably with the exact same system last year in Brefni Park.

Can Donegal cope with the hype within their own county? Time will tell.

We'll try and turn up and give them a game anyway.

If we can.

Don't know about comfortably, if it wasn't for Murphy missing a penalty Donegal would have won.

The same could be said about Charlie Redmond's missed penalty seven minutes into the 1992 final. Dublin were rampant at the time and Donegal were hanging on by their finger nails. If Charlie had put the ball in the net, Donegal might still be waiting for their first AI senior football title.

How many from last years U-21 final are playing?

[heffo]

How many from last years U-21 final are playing?

Two from Dublin starting - McCarthy & O'Carroll - three more on panel - Murray, Devereaux & Nelson.

From Donegal - Murphy, Mcgrath & McHugh

I'd say there'll be some craic in Cassidys - Dublin/donegal pub !

Heff- I nearly crashed the car yesterday morning - the pundits on Newstalk completely wrote off donegals chances. I was expecting to hear you phoning in to 'arsebox' !!

Or if McHugh's shot in the first half had found the net instead of the crossbar. If you are going to consider the "if"s in a game, consider them all.

I didn't start the "ifs".

It's got nothing to do with the missed penalty or any ifs or buts... Indiana said that Dublin U21s were "comfortably" dealing with Donegal's blanket defence last year. That was not the case. Certainly nobody is saying Donegal were comfortable when they won the AIF in 1992.
