Hearing everything is running full steam ahead with your senior footballers for 2027. I think after this year Jim and team will come in under the radar, and that's how he will want it. ahsure. (Galway) - Posts: 1807 - 04/10/2026 11:16:16 2696088 Link

TG4 needs to invest in better cameras. Embarrassing stuff. eddieSize5Balls (Donegal) - Posts: 477 - 04/10/2026 17:45:38 2696129 Link
Replying To eddieSize5Balls: "TG4 needs to invest in better cameras. Embarrassing stuff." Hard luck Glenswilly, nearly had it. Amazing to see the impact of actually kicking the ball into Murphy. All incisive accurate passes too, on a rotten day might I add. peiledoir20 (Donegal) - Posts: 1745 - 04/10/2026 18:36:16 2696133 Link
Another amazing comeback by Naomh Conail, you have to admire the balls of this team, they just don't know how to give up. In the last 3 weeks they have lost one off there best forwards in mcgettigan, our midfielder that was playing well in k Gallagher, no ethan odonnel this year who is a fantastic footballer and they still grind it out and reach the final. What an amazing bunch of footballers no matter what happens in the final. The keeper (Donegal) - Posts: 746 - 04/10/2026 19:30:54 2696141 Link

Glenswilly will be thinking of some decision making on the ball in the final 10 minutes. Two great games over the weekend. Gweedore will be thinking how they gave Eunans a 1-9 head start. Met a Gweedore man at half time for tea and he was telling me that amount of lads they don't have is a football team in itself. Credit to them as well , still competing. Glenties for the win Whyme923 (Donegal) - Posts: 154 - 04/10/2026 20:06:48 2696145 Link

Looking back at the NC/Glenswilly game on TG4, McGettigans goal chance was difficult to call. The lack of line marking in the goal mouth has to be questioned in our main county grounds on Semi Final weekend. Similar out the field, very poor line marking Samforthehills26 (Donegal) - Posts: 25 - 05/10/2026 09:36:10 2696200 Link

Gallagher definitely a loss around the middle today. To be fair Ethan O'Donnell is not there by choice. Many other teams across the country missing players who are in Australia by choice. Good to see the Doherty brother back though. peiledoir20 (Donegal) - Posts: 1745 - 05/10/2026 11:12:52 2696222 Link

Yes Gallagher was a major loss yesterday, I believe it was the reason we struggled around midfield yesterday for so long. Every ball that was won by a player took several hits before he got the pass off. That was down to glenswilly crowding midfield to there credit, they won most of the breaks the first 50 minutes. That extra big man in Gallagher would definitely have helped. In fairness to E odonnel, he came home every other year for championship and owes the club nothing. Mcgettigans injury is devastating for the young fella, 3-4 time he has done the knee. Hard to see him coming back after this. On another note, murphy is a fine footballer, but he seriously needs to learn how to tackle or else he will end up costing donegal again next season. Simple don't get involved with silly stuff, he has enough experience and should know better. The keeper (Donegal) - Posts: 746 - 05/10/2026 13:11:01 2696260 Link
