Yes to be honest I am pleased to see the back of the U21 championship for it has been on the cards for a very long time. He says in one sentence...... So maybe create a competition at U21 level where player's are allowed to express and play freely and see what happens even at senior level. He says a few lines later. I'm as confused as a cow on astro turf........ Ned_Stormcrow (Cavan) - Posts: 1022 - 16/04/2017 18:40:49 1979916 Link

Donegal basically romp through Ulster giving us a double score thumping in the process. Then Dublin proceed to dismantle Donegal. Question is, where does that leave the future of Ulster football never mind Cavan football????? Virginia (Cavan) - Posts: 94 - 17/04/2017 09:08:06 1980052 Link

The under age system should allow them to express themselves. Donegal were a prime example of this on Saturday afternoon. kildare blue (Cavan) - Posts: 572 - 17/04/2017 09:33:57 1980058 Link

Am I the only one finding it hard to read this new posting system? I seem to be reading the same messages with a wee bit added to the end of each. I preferred the old format. Cavan_Slasher (Cavan) - Posts: 10253 - 17/04/2017 21:57:26 1980253 Link
Replying To Cavan_Slasher: "Am I the only one finding it hard to read this new posting system? I seem to be reading the same messages with a wee bit added to the end of each. I preferred the old format." seems to be a bit of a glitch. easiest way to make yours readable is to leave a couple of lines at the top of your reply so your text is separated from the previous post cavanman47 (Cavan) - Posts: 4135 - 17/04/2017 22:29:28 1980265 Link
Replying To Virginia: "Donegal basically romp through Ulster giving us a double score thumping in the process. Then Dublin proceed to dismantle Donegal. Question is, where does that leave the future of Ulster football never mind Cavan football?????" To be honest, I doubt if Cavan or Derry would have done any worse against Dublin. perhaps it was the quick turn-around that did it. Although the style of play was undoubtedly a contributing factor. This style of play has now gone as far as it can go iMO . Although When We played Donegal they seemed to break a lot faster and were scoring from all distances and angles whereas against Dublin they couldn't hit a barn door and looked slow and ponderous. Perhaps Dublin made them look so and also put them under a lot more pressure when shooting. Anyway I have since watched the second semi-final of TG4 and it was a breath of fresh air. Kerry unlucky on a few dodgy referring calls but Galway overall much the better team. However we will only know how good they are after they have played Dublin. s goldrick (Cavan) - Posts: 5356 - 18/04/2017 07:02:54 1980303 Link

So Donegal absolutely hammered us and the Dubs did the same to them. Not very heartening. Are six of these lads ready or able for the senior squad I wonder? Cavan_Slasher (Cavan) - Posts: 10253 - 18/04/2017 13:38:34 1980437 Link

Replying To Hardtimes: "Good. Some very good footballers on that squad." to be honest, I didn't see one that would cut it at senior grade. They are good footballers but some are being over hyped, and are believing the hype We are not producing game changers. We are producing robots to fit into a system of play.
