Ah lad, stop embarrassing yourself. This man was proved right from day one when you were all berating him. Like certain people in the golden circle, you really don't know when to exit stage left.

Replying To Donegal_abroad:  "No harm but I don't know anyone who backs the CB for their gross mishandling of so many things in recent times. Please don't kid yourself, maybe a few people closely acquainted with those in the circles but aside from that, 95% of Donegal fans are disgusted with the shambolic handling of the Lacey and Carr affairs, the silence around it all and the sheer lack of ambition for Donegal football which has resonated through very clearly because of the power hungry."
Not kidding myself but not not backing anyone until we see the results of the review. I hope everyone involves contributes to this and gives a full disclosure on what happened. Think your kidding yourself with the figure of 95%. Hopefully this review will give us all a full picture of what actually happened. Live in hope.

No he wasn't, who told you that.

Replying To tickets:  "Can we forget about the shambles happening at county level as nothing is going to be resolved until may. Plenty of club football action starting now and would be great if the thread was actually about players playing rather than old men on county boards!"
Well said. Probably the most sensible post on here in weeks.

Replying To peiledoir20:  "What about the vote of no confidence from the two clubs? Thought you would have had the inside track on that??

Then again, you were probably off supporting your own county in Croker which is a lot more normal than obsessing over another.

Thanks for replying to me again even though you said you wouldn't. It means a lot."
A vote of no confidence from 2 clubs is hardly groundbreaking news is it? Compared to all that went before.

Replying To peiledoir20:  "What I do have served me well enough till now so I won't change based on 'advise' from a poster who has been here a wet week solely with the intention supportting his buddy."
You seem to think that the duration of your participation on this forum seems to give you some sort additional credence. That really is a silly thought.

As for being here to solely support my buddy, that's nonsense. My opinions are my own. I am here because I am seriously concerned with the direction things are going in the county. Also, some posters seem to have a good handle on things and inside line as to what's going on behind the scenes. Which you certainly don't get in the media.

You seem to be here to: a) to defend the county board
& b) to wind others up.

Is there a deadline on this review? Or is it an open deadline.

Best of luck to our u20's who are playing in an Ulster semi-final tomorrow. These lads have been working hard for months and showed great fighting spirit and commitment in their last game. They deserve everyone's support.

Do you want his address as well!!!!
It's just something I heard. Murphy wasn't impressed with it all anyway given he didn't announce his retirement until the new regime was in place for a few weeks.

Do people actually think we will get the full story from this review?
No chance there will be a county board meeting with no Media and nothing but cloak and dagger about what went on.

We all seen Donegal going into dark day but this is next level.
If I were on the county panel right now I'd be looking into flights to north America and go make some money and make life experiences while this mess rumbles on.

Yeah, but not recently, in fairness. Though they're looking great and have a good chance of winning it in 2023.

Last man out turn out the lights so, some bloody mess they have made of the county team now, I don't think we'll ever get back to being a serious team until Murphy and/or McGuinness takes over as manager, that's if they'd touch it with a 10 ft bargepole.
The mess it's in now I don't know who in their right mind would go near it, can't blame young fellas for wanting to get the hell away from here and enjoy the summer stateside or wherever.

Not sure if its happened before in Mayo but it certainly hasn't in Donegal before. Therefore, making it ground breaking.

You would be saying more if you sincerely thought it wasn't conjecture. Go on then so.
