Replying To royaldunne:  "It's no easier or harder than last year. I think 15 was the big miss. But that's all behind us. Of course Andy is targeting promotion, which is refreshingly positive.
Do I think in my heart we will get promoted? And will I be putting money on it ? Absolutely yes.
But then I've done that every year for the last number.
Standing back from my royal slanted view. You would have to say that every team is thinking they can get promoted. Down cork provincial finalists, Roscommon provincial winners , tipp Clare on a crest of a wave, Louth always fancy playing Meath , Cavan have designs too. No easy games but we have the right man in charge. Few changes needed.
Long story short, if it's in our own hands on last day v Down I'll be a happy man.
Hon the royal"
Refreshingingly positive ..... you make it sound like McEntee is the 1st manager ever to target promotion.
1 every year meath are just a win away from promotion
2 McEntee is the right man but he is no messiah
3 at this stage it looks as if we have too many defections to make any progress

Looking at that fixture list I'll be happy if we stay up without a final day nail biter.
Honestly don't see Meath getting promoted.

You're right Brownepat we've been close but no cigar lots of times. I think Andy concentrating and explicitly stating D1 is the goal for this year will hopefully give us that bit extra. The number of defections are not a good sign. Even if you have lads to replace them of similar standard the squad as a whole is losing quality.
I would never begrudge a young man scratching the travel itch but does anyone have any idea why they seem to be coming more prevalent over the last couple of years?
