The Official Cavan GAA Discussion thread.

Extremely poor. Crosserlough walked through for goals and should have scored more. Rehill and Miller on for 2nd half

what's wrong with Killian Clarke? Just listened to we are Cavan intermediate preview and they made it sound bad. Is he sick?

McCabe more or less has the Cavan job now. Finbar Reilly has pulled out.

Might have been awkward after the rumblings from when Finbar left Arva.

What was the purpose of the committee? One person for an interview is a pretty embarrassing return.. We really do have the most unambitious and uninspiring county board in the country.

We know what we will get with McCabe, he can generally get a decent tune from his teams in terms of performance.. Seems to be an expert in moral victory's... Gowna in Ulster, Westmeath etc...Them teams were well capable of finding a way to lose ..

Are we not trying to get away from that here in Cavan ? We needed a manager who will find ways to win .

Wouldn't hang my hat on McDermott to be honest with you.. it has been a long time since he was involved with an intercounty set up .. it's literally a different game now..

I remember being at a Ramor game in Crosskeys years ago probably 2018 or so and I was getting the vibe they weren't too happy with him at that time..

Yea I hear what your saying Cavan king.. We really are scraping the bottom of the barrel.. This "committee" as there calling themselves, what did they actually do? Why not be proactive and have conversations with different managers across the country?

In terms of the senior championship this weekend ,it has been a bit dull. Maybe there needs to be a conversation about the one up and one down situation.. there are teams who shouldn't be there and by the body language probably don't want to be there.

.It's so much harder to get into senior than get out of it .. I was thinking about Ger Loughnannes famous comments about the Offaly hurlers watching laragh tonight.. There are teams in intermediate like Cucus, bboro and bridge who would offer more value at this moment at senior.

If there's any positive from his appointment, it will be his resignation or sacking in due course having failed badly.

Proving those who don't agree with his appointment, as having been right.

Finbars time will come.

It's not as though mc cabe is taking over a team in a good place. No point bringing in some big name and relevant fee to become a scape goat at a later date, having not been prepared as a county board to resource all else associated with same.

Serious question, do you follow the club game?

Oh I see what you did there, very clever - introducing spelling of a surname into a point. Great success. Was that to draw attention from the fact of the matter that you were clearly wrong to say McCabe was the most qualified person in the county for the job?

Very interesting offerings you provide to the discussion. Quite insightful.

It’s peak football time in the county. Have you any comments on the ongoing club championships at the minute? Paul Fitz must be right that ye lads on here are county football supporters only.

Arva will be a handful for anyone.

Very short season for anyone. Football only from February essentially to June

I’ve a friend from Donegal doesn’t support any club in Cavan but lives here. Even he would go into Breffni each weekend during championship to watch a game.

I generally find Ramor the least “explosive”, if that’s the best term to use, of the big three. I find they leave teams in the game whereas Gowna or Crosserlough absolutely hammer teams when they get a run.

It’s probably due to a lack of firepower because I feel Ramor don’t have the finishers that the other two do.

Mullahoran were the better team last night and should have won the game.

They definitely did leave that behind them. Ramor had a fair few wides too, but Mullahoran had way too many wides, including dropped balls and handpassed balls to the net. If Mullahoran can sort out the shooting, they have a lot of youth around some experienced heads and can get better and challenge
