desperate bad luck with injuries....and i hate saying it, but some dubious referee decisions , have contributed to Dunshaughlin's position, but should have too much for NOM. too much quality, in gillogly , dushlaine , costello & mitchell to go down , and just need that time for minors to get a bit more experience

Well done to the Bracks. Delighted to see them not getting relegated having ended the group with 3 points. They're a club that's given loads of players to the Meath minors over the past few years so no surprise to see them operating at senior for the first time and staying there LeitrimRoyal99 (Meath) - Posts: 1523 - 26/10/2021 11:03:34 2387394 Link 10 |
Too much quality to go down!!!!!!! Famous last words. Not enough quality to take any of the numerous chances presented to them to avoid the relegation final this year so I wouldn't be so sure. If the team go into the game with the same mentality as you that they are too good to go down they could be in trouble.

Hold on LS, starting to think you are on a wind up. Bad referring decisions don't account for loosing 4 championship games by a combined score of 30 odd points. Ask O'Mahoneys who finished with 13 against you about poor refereeing in the one game you did win. Or Seneschelstown who finished with 14 for some still unknown reason against you. What your manager needs to do now is bring in those players who were jettisoned last year. They brought your second team to a Championship final last week and have played senior football previously. They also need to beg C. King to come back in after a successful year with the aforementioned second team. They need to bring in whoever in the club who can give a helping hand over the next 10 days. I think the lack of respect some in your club are showing to NOM is unreal. They are the most successful club in the county and will definitely put it up to your 'quality' players next week. The only positive Dunshaughlin have at the moment is its their second year in a row in the relegation final so that experience should stand to them.

You're right bad refereeing isn't the reason Dunshaughlin are where they are. Some players just haven't stepped up. Just a couple of points - i think everyone knows the reason for the Seneschalstown red card was nothing got to do with the video clip posted on social media. It was for a seperate off the ball incident. Also, i'm not sure anyone was 'jettisoned'. I think C King decided to play second team football because he was managing Drumbaragh this year so he couldn't commit. Genuinely don't think there has been any disrespect shown from anyone in Dunshaughlin to NOM. It's a 50/50 game and everyone in Dunshaughlin is aware of that

Regardless of the seneschalstown red card being nothing got to do with the Video clips going around it was still a bad refereeing decision Not everyone in Dunshaughlin thinks this is 50/50 There has been plenty of noose around about how the big players in Dunshaughlin will be to much for navan This is certainly squeaky bum time for both clubs head4dblackspot (Meath) - Posts: 513 - 28/10/2021 17:38:40 2387755 Link 0 |
That's for sure!

In fairness to you LS, no one can question your loyalty and optimism. No issue with that at all.

What quality?? We are talking about senior football here not minor What was achieved at minor has absolutely nothing to do with the outcome of the next match You do realise when talking about all this quality and talent you are in a "RELEGATION" final head4dblackspot (Meath) - Posts: 513 - 31/10/2021 18:52:42 2387995 Link 0 |
Yes I know the incident on video wasn't reason for red card but still couldn't see the off the ball incident. I knew King was managing but apparently he was flying with second team and was available for last 2 senior games. My reason for mentioning the second team players ties in to what you are saying about some players not 'stepping up'. If any club find their first team in a relegation final and their second team in their final than 1 of 2 things have happened. Either the manager thinks a number of players are not good enough for first team or a cohort of players won't play for the first team . Surely the second team lads should have been drafted up and the non performers dropped? I give my club a hand on match days so have seen a bit of Dunshaughlin over the last 3/4 years. I saw them v Kells 2 years ago and they were very well organised, very fit and used their panel well. They were very unlucky to loose by 1/2 points and qualified for the knockout stages I think. I have seen them v Seneschalstown twice and Ashbourne since and they have been the opposite of all that. I think you are simplifying matters by saying that results have just been caused by some players not stepping up. Surely the management have to take responsibility, especially when they have options in such a big club. I think Dunshaughlin were one of only 3/4 teams to tog out 4 adult teams this year. This is their second year in relegation final so players obviously didn't step up last year either? Again my point on second team players and management responsibility comes back into play. For what its worth Dunshaughlin should win if they have brought in some of the second team lads but I wouldn't bet money either way. Best of luck to both teams.
