Looking across the hedge from Monaghan, I'll be hoping for a Drumgoon win on Sunday. A small rural club that punches above its weight is the epitome of GAA spirit. However, speaking to a couple of folk from Cavan, they're saying that most football people in the county would hope to see them well beaten. Or is that just a Muinchille thing?

Naw I`d say most Cavan folk have good time foe small clubs like Drumgoon.Tomorrow we`ll see Cavan Gaels run away with Castlerahan,in fairness two towns with big populations,yet Gaels are best! Crosserlough are a big club with big population around Drumkilly,Crosserlough and Kilnaleck. Drumgoon are definately big achievers for a small area and most fait GAA minds admire them,they have a great school and underage I believe and get the most from small base. I`m sure neighbours Cootehill might have some jealousy but thats probably only a few as well,in fairness Cootehill have big town and don`t achieve much.Some Drumgoon supporters were nasty at a game I was at last year but you get that everywhere`. I think Gaels will win well and I hope we go on to seriously challenge for Ulster honours. I`d have a soft spot for rural Drumgoon but think Crosserlough too strong in defence.Looking forward to great day in the park

Well done lads, lucky to hold on in the end as Crosserlough dominated the second half, but credit where credits due...
