Fair play to you Celt man taking that time out to make your predictions. Even if I disagree with a few, I think we are all wasting our time trying to predict the opening results. Games are about as predictable the Irish Weather. 

Love picking up the Celt during the week and seeing who score what.Great to get the football back!

Cant wait to see how Bailieborough shape up this year, Its sad to see us down in Division Three..Unfortunately it is completely deserved. What should I expect to see from Arva on Sunday, dogged I am sure???Never had the joy of playing against them

lads i have a lot of time for Mickey Hannon. I think he has been hung out to dry in the past by been given the sole responsability of say Benny Coulter but In my opinion he will be corner back. The reason I included Rory Dunne is simple - he is fantastic in the air. He is calm and has a great pair of hands. He struggles though, when asked to be a more typical corner back. if asked to follow his man left right and centre, he can be punished. But use the fella's strengths and let him take control of the skies.

Again anyone know where Eamon Reilyl went too?He would give us an anchor at centre back.

Watters does not need an operation - immediately anyway, he played a full game last week with the U21's

I think the U21s need to step up to the plate this year. If they show they are good enough for senior level, let 6 or so of them into the team to freshen things up. I dont think are problem is having poor players. Just too many players at the same average level

Also Tomas Reilly, D Gibney and Eugene Keating playeed Sigerson with Sligo and I am pretty sure Enda Gaffney did for DIT

Sorry lads was away on a wee break for the last couple of days, so missed all the arguments over the dismal performance last weekend.

All I can say is, calls for Carr's head are ridiculous. I dont think many understand the size of the task on his hand. Yes, we have been really poor but Carr not only has to pick the best team - he has to change players attitudes, restore confidence in them when playing  in the blue jersey. I looked at the Sigerson Reports during the week. Plenty of Cavan lads showed well, and they always do with their clubs. But playing for Cavan is a different story. They dont believe. They are used to losing. At this stage it is almost a habit.

Nobody can turn that around in a week. Its going to take time. But maybe using more younger players instead of the likes of Brady, Fannin and Eddie who are  used to losing. Naturally youngers players are a wee bit ignorant you know?

And if we have to take one step back to go two forward then so be it. At this stage once we avoid relegation this year - we can be reasonably happy. Let the man have two years and then judge him.

He is managing a county that expects a lot but delivers very little. I am not saying I agree with all his decisions (ie. Podge at FB) but he needs to learn things about the players too.

My team for next game

Well lads another newcomer on board. Was tellin a friend of mine I was running out of patience with a popular website named after a section of Croke Park and he suggested this one. Far too much rubbish on the other one and pointless topics.

Was wondering if anyone heard about the Mayo game at the weekend. I know both the senior and U21 panel played games. Any news on either of them?
