Anyone know what way injuries are fixed for saturday?

Killian Conlon said on derry gales that clucky and mcevoy could play?

Will be a hostile environment on saturday but we should have too much for them

Meenagh was saying in an interview after the cork match that mcevoy is backing training and should be getting game time very soon. So wouldn't be surprised if he is in the squad

Haven't heard anything but I'd guess McEvoy will be listed, hard to know with clucky since he didn't take part in any warm ups two weeks ago

Louth away will be a mighty test I think, I'm fairly sure we just pipped them the last time in Ardee?

Ardee pitch v heavy at Tyrone game so I wouldn't take any chances if not 1000% fit

Delighted to hear Paul Cassidy saying in his interview that winning All Ireland can be achieved.
Sign of confidence in the group, own your aspirations, far too many politically correct wishy washy answers that give you no actual information.

You were questioning his commitment not too long ago 🤣🤣

show me were, I was questioning if he would start on his current form and if he wanted to be at that level, last 18 months the answer to that would have been no.

He has turned it around.

His own personal commitment would have no relevance to what level of confidence is in the group to which he was talking about in the interview.

Having watched the team walk off the pitch in Kildare, I'm not surprised. They looked like a team full of confidence and proud, good to see it and likewise hear that from Paul.

Eventually Paul Cass and Niall Toner will have to decide if they actually want it enough.
Keepers not good enough c


This one. Fair enough the points are different but I thought it a cheap shot at the time to boys out training 5/6 nights a week as a good few years now. Glad that Cassidy has hopefully proved he wants it since then and you now seem to be a fan again 😊

I think Ryan was complementary of Paul's effort after the Tyrone game maybe?

What's the reasoning for having these lads drive to Celtic Park to train anyway surely they can use the mighty facility in the middle.

Maghera was Black

I read that Meenagh stated that the U20's have been released back to McErlain so that will be us down a few that made up the bench the past few weeks, which I think will mean McEvoy will be listed whether he plays or not is a different story but he looked to me moving well before the Cork match. I wonder if it will cross the managements mind should we add to the squad now that the u20s are away along with McAleer, JD, Mark Doherty. Did you notice Horse naming his Louth team very early on a Tuesday night...

Maybe because that's where we'll be playing in the championship? Just a mad thought

Sometimes I add a comment on here that an actual player on the panel has said and it always gets a good reaction

The worst type of individual around any team is the person that takes playing standard comments and treats them as personal attacks.
Meenagh has stated on more than one occasion that harsh realities have been said and he has been told the players to call them out.

I stand over my comments, he was playing poorly miles off the standard but is absolutely back to his best.
None of these two statements are any way associated to what his personality is like. And they are 100% not cheap.
