Derry Club Football & Hurling original

[oakleaflad]

Surprised at McMonagle. Arguably the best forward in the championship this year, 2 feet and has a bit about him.

[Ryan O]

How many senior clubs in Derry are on the management hunt?

Glen-Heard R Gallagher
Slaughtneil- John Mc Keever
Magherafelt? Same management
Swatragh-jude Donnelly
Kilrea-Paddy Bradley

Thats what I've heard so far.

I'd be shocked if the first one happens, Donnelly to Swatragh could happen.

Bradley to Kilrea would be unexpected I would have thought? Maybe could work out for both ok.

[Stickittotheman]

A few lads are not included in the Senior panel this year from last years squad. A couple of those left out make no sense. It will be real kick in the teeth for anyone who has committed or for those with hopes of breaking through if two men playing Antrim and have done nothing to deserve places come in.

Like who?

Ben McCarron and Cahir McMonagle for two who weren't asked backed.

I had heard Ben wasn't involved but not about Cahir.

New jersey is class, very similar to 2022/23, similar jersey sinilar managemenr, hopefully a good omen for the year ahead

Only assuming we're at home to Tyrone due to the away games before/after and away to Louth based on the home games before/after.

Last time we played Kildare and Louth in Division 2. we were away, strange to be away to both again.

Finian Moriarty new Glen manager

[Newbridge Exile]

Finian Moriarty new Glen manager

He was with Carryduff for 4 years and was well thought of by them

And won an Armagh SFC with Maghery before that.

[Ryan O]

Its a forward step for Finnian, not sure its one for Glen, time will tell.
2 years ago Malachy Rourke now someone who was well thought of at Carryduff.
Mattie Mc Glennan taking over Portglenone on paper looks to be a better appointment than that.

McGlennan would have a questionable track record?

Would Glen not be an ageing team now with alot of better players late twenties early thirties? They were hammered in the county semi final last year so the new man will have plenty of work to do.  Based on how the Derry championship went would Magherafelt, Newbridge and S'neil not all be ahead of Glen in the pecking order going into next year?

Potential starters -
Ruairi Forbes

G.Mckinless
Ciaran McFaul
Niall Toner

Alot of ifs especially J.Doherty, there looks to be a lot of competition for places plus the names I haven't mentioned or forgot (Don't shoot me). That would be good starting 15 if all was healthy.
