Replying To dgcrusader: "Not a big fan of the new jersey, think the green down the sides of it doesn't look right. Think the training jerseys have been nicer over the last few years" I actually like it, although need to see what it looks like on the pitch, but like the look of it.

Over 2 million to run County teams this year, where will it end and how will it end. jacktheboy (Donegal) - Posts: 519 - 04/12/2025 15:03:46 2647039 Link
Replying To jacktheboy: "Over 2 million to run County teams this year, where will it end and how will it end." As long as what's coming in is greater than spend, who cares once the teams are competing? farneygael3 (Monaghan) - Posts: 475 - 05/12/2025 16:55:30 2647154 Link
Replying To jacktheboy: "Over 2 million to run County teams this year, where will it end and how will it end." Genuine question here, where does the money for our county teams come from. Do we really take in £2m in sponsorship and gate receipts? Or are we putting ourselves in debt?! Anyone in the know that could tell us?

Replying To SouthOfTheGap: "Eunans announcement rules Kieran Donnelly out of Jim's Background team. Any new names in the mix?" Yeah seen that, thought he was nailed on for the county team. No real word about it, might hear some rumours tomorrow at the convention possibly. Not a lot of info comes out regarding the county team ie players that have been brought into the squad, coaching or s&c changes etc. dgcrusader (Donegal) - Posts: 159 - 09/12/2025 13:37:08 2647642 Link

If I get a new jersey and a season pass for GAA+ I'll be very happy, dropping a few hints lol. Tirchonaill1 (Donegal) - Posts: 3596 - 10/12/2025 18:00:38 2647874 Link
Replying To Tirchonaill1: "If I get a new jersey and a season pass for GAA+ I'll be very happy, dropping a few hints lol." Just seen the GAA+ Season pass is on sale for 2026, think its €79 or €89, definitely want that. Have my Donegal GAA season ticket sorted. Its an expensive hobby these days.

Replying To ConyersHill04: "Was thinking McGuinness is no mug after all...... While astute at setting teams up, his inability to make switches under pressure is fatal." Jim McGuiness 6 Years in charge as a Senior manager 2011 Ulster Champions 2012 Ulster Champions, 2012 All Ireland Champions 2013 Ulster Finalist 2014 Ulster Champions, 2014 All Ireland finalist 2024 Ulster Champions 2025 Ulster Champions, 2025 All Ireland finalist What where Monaghan doing while Jim was feeling the pressure over the same 6 years 2011 serving pints to Donegal fans in clones and booking their summer holiday early 2012 Getting ready for the Big tom Festival and booking their summer holiday early 2013 Ulster Champions, well deserving champions also 2014 Division 2 champions and booking their summer holiday early 2024 Just booking their summer holiday early 2025 Monaghan tractor pull 2025 and booking their summer holiday early there is a strong theme about one manager being successful which is not luck and others getting to book their holidays early. I suppose it will be Santa Ponsa early this summer again ;-), don't forget the sun cream . ulsterrules (Donegal) - Posts: 261 - 12/12/2025 12:48:48 2648091 Link
