Replying To sporto: "It has went down hill over the last few years, used to be excellent. I get that it's reliant on volunteers but our website and social media is way behind other counties, it should be the key way of promoting our games in the county. They have also now added an app to further convolute the whole thing, maybe get our website sorted before adding any more layers!" Also instead of posting the (county) team on twitter before the last few games, there was tweet "encouraging" you do download the app to find out who is playing. It's quite annoying and I'm not sure anyone needs more apps on their phone. PolicemanFox (Monaghan) - Posts: 211 - 09/03/2026 17:01:46 2660704 Link
Replying To MonaghanMan44life: "Donegal a very good team. 4Masters won 3 Ulster titles at club level with that crop of players, nevermind Roarty… Hard to call, we are inherent underachievers at u20s, I'd put most of that blame on the standard on club football. Tyrone seem to have got the recipe for success so be foolish to write them off also. AI winners will come out of Ulster, of that I'd put my house on." What about kerry this pure ninsense writing them off they going jicely under radar with few option didnt many say they couldnt beat armagh in qf and donegal in final and look what they did they are the team to beat with donegal next and maybe derry galway armagh.

Most clubs now have their own apps and it just about time the county had theirs too. ORIELMAN85 (Monaghan) - Posts: 968 - 12/03/2026 13:11:26 2661006 Link
That's quite a weak Galway panel named. Is the unthinkable on? farneygael3 (Monaghan) - Posts: 559 - 13/03/2026 09:51:34 2661061 Link
Replying To farneygael3: "That's quite a weak Galway panel named. Is the unthinkable on?" It was always on. When we get our whole panel back, we will go deep into the championship. monaghanmad (Monaghan) - Posts: 468 - 13/03/2026 11:27:50 2661071 Link

Replying To veterngaa: "Realism" I'm worried now! The Galway travelling panel has only six All Stars starting and a player of the year on the bench. There are multiple All Ireland winners from Galway Minor and U20 and U21 winning teams also included. You should be thankful that Comer, Walsh, McDaid and Daly are been prepared for the Connacht Championship and aren't required to travel on this occasion. What would you classify as a strong panel?

Very strange this last two weeks, no media at all by Bannigan and co...Very strange, usually the media is hit big time when they are off either talking about injuries or plans. monaghanmad (Monaghan) - Posts: 468 - 13/03/2026 15:30:06 2661101 Link

Any additions to the panel or has any exited? ConyersHill04 (Monaghan) - Posts: 55 - 13/03/2026 15:49:00 2661103 Link
Replying To farneygael3: "That's some panel. Why are yous doing so bad thus far?" We aren't doing that bad, nip and tuck in every game. A load of new players blooded, we've had a decent league in my opinion. I wouldn't worry about Division 2 if it happened, sure Armagh, Dublin and Donegal aren't long out of it. Back to you, what would improve our so called weak panel? GDL (Galway) - Posts: 920 - 13/03/2026 18:36:04 2661114 Link
Replying To monaghanmad: "Very strange this last two weeks, no media at all by Bannigan and co...Very strange, usually the media is hit big time when they are off either talking about injuries or plans." Id say a lot of soul searching was done as to what they want to achieve this season as it seems like damage limitation and just playing for pride is the limit of the ambitions for rest of season. V difficult to see us beating anyone at the moment. Misfiring laboured attack playing at v slow pace a weak midfield and a wide open defence. A lot of that is down to players missing but not all of it. There has been a big regression in form from last season especially among the sides leading lights last year. seanie08 (Monaghan) - Posts: 1960 - 13/03/2026 19:39:45 2661121 Link
