I agree, I still buy it despite its many flaws. Joe Brolly, the coaching articles and the unusual features are worth the money.
Flaw No. 1: Brendan Devenney!
How is that man still writing for them, he comes out with awful oul tripe. He was a maverick player who flattered to deceive and never did it when it counted. He also never won anything with Donegal (at least I don't think he did?) He isnt a manager or a coach.. yet he is given a page every week to show off his ignorance. Surely GL could do better than him?


well lad, i to have issues with Ga Life and find parts of it boring but i enjoy brendan devenneys articles, sure some are of the charts but it takes all types.you asked what did he win? since when did it take winning things to make you have a good point of view? thats like Galvin asking how many all ir had the sunday game team won? how many would he have won if he'd lived up the road in limerick? its like you're opinion now on the press, what qualifies you to talk, maybe you could write a topical article and and i'll see what its like but i'd doubt you have the brain

I find parts of GL boring sure but thats stuff that i'm not interested in, i enjoy brendan devenneys articles, sure some of them are a bit off the wall but it takes all types,be boring if everyone had the same point of view. I think you are showing you're ignorance by claiming that a player has to have won a lot to talk about the game. you are just after giving an opinion on what someone writes so then, what have you written???  thats like the galvan dig at the sunday game crew about how many all ir they'd won. if galvan had been born up the road in limerick how many would he have won?
if GL didn't like devenneys write ups he wouldn't be there.................... maybe you could send in 1? with you're words of wisdom
