Monaghan v Derry

[orangeman]

Paddy doing the "Rafa Benitez" after the goal   Fantastic piece of skill from Skinner to set the goal up, you wouldnnt see better in the Premiership.  Think Ill book my flights home for next week..  Wasn't at all confident before the game today, hope we get an easy draw for next Sat...

Paddy loves to rub it in. 2-7 entitles him to do whatever the hell he likes.

Paddy loves to rub it in, nor does he like it when people rub it in to him like the Ricey incident in the Tyrone game. Both incidents aren't much different yet you won't see the same backlash as Ricey suffered on here after the incident.

Paddy should know better and let his scoring do the talking. His 2-7 today should have made a big enough point today.

Good performance from Derry but still a few worries - conceeding 20 points to a Monaghan team without Freeman is poor and I doubt any other team will look as slow and as low on energy as Monaghan were today.

Not another Portstewart WUM surely!

Every time someone's late for a match you dubs start on about it. Now a boy does a celebration he shouldn't and you boys are on about it.

Karma.

Is your caps lock button broken?

Well done Derry a very good performance going forward - the Derry supporters will be happy with the win but the players and management will not be happy with the amount of scores which they conceded against a Monaghan team minus its talisman forward.

Excellent result for Derry...I predicted during the week that if Derry had their heads right they would win comfortably and thankfully that was the case.  I think today showed that when it comes down to football, Monaghan just cant compete with Derry. Monaghan didnt resort to their usual rough house tactics and it resulted in an open game which was very enjoyable....I'm glad I went now!

Yes Derry have a bit to work on...particularly after conceding 20 points but there were a lot more positives after this game than the Tyrone one. I think tactically we got it 100% right and we seemed to be playing as a team rather than a collection of individual.
Hopefully we can improve now for the next game and with McGuckian back it will strengthen us further at the back.

If that was Paddy Bradley playing injured today...I think we should keep him injured all year!
I thought Eoin Bradley, Kielt (yes I usually dont like Kielt), Lynch, Diver, Doc, Patsy, Gerard O'Kane were all excellent, but no-one was particularly bad. In the form Hanratty was in it was only going to be damage limitation....thought he was Monaghans best player. Ronaghan also very good.

When is the draw for the next round?

Just back from the game, great game of football, thought Fergal Doherty was immense. We missed Kevin McGuickan a lot, a bit concerned at how many monaghan scored. Hopefully we avoid Kerry and kick on from here.

Draw is on RTE after the Waterford v Tipp game tomorrow

Unfortunately Kevin won't be back for the next qualifier game - 4 week ban so i think it runs out at 12 midnight on saturday night
