Ho Ho Ho.

But then again... Damien O'Reilly did take over for a few league games after Machugh left as Temporary manager (Maybe this didn't count as being fully flegded but he did serve!).

Highking,
This is from the Hoganstand quiz thread?? Could be a controversial question in my opinion.

Pretty sure it was PJ Carroll.

See some dudes on the Hogan Stand proposing possible teams. They may know something .. it seems like Mccabe is being put in Fullforward. Is Keoghan thinking of making McCabe into a "Donaghy" style target man perhaps? Anyway he was always very effective when used in this position before. Good to see Mckenna back. We could have done with him earlier in the year.

The only thing I'd be worried about is that we may be recycling alot of what we've seen already and there is no longterm plan.

Damien Reilly. Great guts and determination. He had a great never say die attitude. His point in the last couple of minutes against Donegal in Breffnie park in 1992 epitomized his attitude toward the game. Again another team that were unlucky at the time not to go further. If they had a back door in those days cavan would have made a big impact. It was at the height of Ulster's 90's dominace of football in Ireland. In second place I'd have Jim Reilly. Never won anything with Cavan and always gave 100%. Represented ulster on several railway cup teams and I never saw him have a bad game. Aidan Connolly had the potential / talent to be the best!

Immmm take your point BH man but then if you look at say the meath team of 1996...they had Mark O'Reilly, Darren Fay, Paddy Reynolds, Graham Geraghty, Barry Callaghan, Trevor Giles, Ollie Murphy... All were on the All Ireland winning team that year and would have been on the team that Cavan U21's beat after a replay in Roscommon in 1996... if I remember right! So there is arguments for putting these guys in and blooding them young and mix them with the best of the experienced generation.

BH Man, very interesting that the U21 games over the weekend were of a high standard.
Could be that there is more talent right under Keoghan's nose than he thinks... maybe he's wasting his time building up a team of high Profile short-term stars when he is sitting on a wealth of uptapped talent already and U21 level. I saw alot of half that Lurgan team playing over the summer. There are at leat 2/3 of that team that should be given a go with the county.

Cavan Cola would put hairs on your chest. Does its 80's demise coincide with the deterioration in Cavan's football fortunes? Maybe Donal K should consider restocking the Cavan panels training sessions with the black stuff instead of these fancy multicoloured energy drinks that are only drank by a shower of rugby and soccer ponces anyway. 

Anyway I'm sure Donal has already thought this one threw as he looks like a fella who drank gallons of the stuff when he was a young fella. Anyone know anything about challenge matchs for Cavan Seniors? Thanks!

Any idea when the senior team will be playing their first match under Keoghan?
Are there any challenge match's we could review progress at?
All this talk about Gallagher... I guess it gives us options at least. He can be shown the road if he starts giving trouble. Who'd want him after that anyway... so I think its up to him to behave.
