Pity there is no coverage of the 2008 qualifier, where McCabe himself was playing. Cavan put in a great second half but conceded a last minute goal

Poor stuff yesterday but a win is a win. You certainly can never fault these players' efforts and work rate, It's a pity supporters don't get behind the team as they are a likeable group.

It was a crazy decision to start the game without a midfielder, unless all three are carrying injuries. McKiernan changed the game when he came on and in Lynch we have a top class forward. Oisin Brady and Corrigan were also very good.

Tyrone have done us no favours dropping points to both Louth and Kildare. Louth will be a tough game on Saturday

We've points on the board! Better late than never!

A gritty, battling win in tough conditions. We'll take it. Fair play to the lads for showing some character and guts in a dogfight. Kildare are a bit of a soft team mentally, often seem to lack fight-so once we overhauled their lead in the second half and went ahead, we had a great shot at seeing it out.

Tyrone did us no favours losing to Louth. The turfmen will have their tails up now. We have to raise our game and keep building on this win, have to get the result here if we're to have a hope of staying up.
