Monaghan GAA Thread

Yes, a banana skin game. Cavan will treat it as an Ulster Final. Beggan rumoured to be back in camp. If they play him it won't do much for the confidence of the new lad.

Rory named on the panel.

Going nowhere at the minute. Awful collapse when a bit of calm would have won the game

Desperately poor

Conor McManus what a footballer and long career he had with Monaghan.

Amazing player. Big loss to the game now. Got some incredible scores. Especially that one from the sideline against Tyrone. He could do what most other players could only dream of.

Yes, ref was right ultimately but it showed up the problems.

New rules new lessons.
It was an encouraging performance from Monaghan and there are a few miles left in them yet.

Clare support not travelling is a sign of lack of confidence. Monaghan love making hard work of teams they should beat, so we'll see. Sun is shining here in Clones!

Quite windy and a swirly one today. But yeh, need to be more accurate. Clare flattered a bit by the late goal, very good second half from Monaghan

we are poor at the moment , but in fairness that was a good second half , michael mcarvile put in a huge show in midfield , i personally taught it would be much worse ,we were missing 4 or 5 lads today, ye will beat down good and all as they have been all year since the end of the league

Funny girl.

Nearly blew it. But their big men stood up. Could go all the way now.

Youse will all love this -
