Replying To greenfan: "Was there interviews held for the minor manager job? I thought a few years ago after the review that there was supposed to be more transparency. Not saying he wont do a good job but surely these important positions should be advertised to allow interested parties to apply and come with their ideas." wasnt advertised and nothing has changed in convoy on karls return no transparency SAMFORHILLS9292 (Donegal) - Posts: 20 - 09/11/2026 13:13:36 2699846 Link
Replying To SAMFORHILLS9292: "wasnt advertised and nothing has changed in convoy on karls return no transparency" would like a statement released on donegal socials clarifying the above. statement ends. farneygael3 (Monaghan) - Posts: 878 - 09/11/2026 14:37:32 2699861 Link

You could end up being right but I'll tell you something, there aren't many county panels out there better than ours. We left an all ireland behind us 2 years ago and that was without murphy and roarty. A lot will depend on injuries, a bit of luck etc, same as everyone but there isnt a team in the country we can't beat on any given day. Same goes for a few other counties. The team looked jaded late this year but I expect they'll have a point to prove next year and less focus on Kerry. WeGoAgain (Donegal) - Posts: 236 - 09/11/2026 16:20:39 2699890 Link
Very interesting podcast with McBrearty. One of the best around in his day, but injuries caught up with him. It's some commute from Donegal to Dublin 3 times a week! ahsure. (Galway) - Posts: 1812 - 10/11/2026 08:24:56 2699922 Link

I have to say when Michael Retired the first time Oisin stood up and was excellent, he was a real focal point of the attack, Michael cameback he stepped into that, I have every faith that if he can stay injuy free he will lead us again ulsterrules (Donegal) - Posts: 340 - 10/11/2026 10:04:42 2699930 Link

Yeah it's not like we're destined to drop to TC football or anything... a quick stab at a starting 15 for next year. 1. Patton. 2. Ban Gallagher 3. McCole 4. Mogan 5. McHugh 6. McGonigle 7. McColgan 8. McGee 9. Langan 10. Thompson 11. S O'Donnell 12. Moore 13. C O'Donnell 14. Gallen 15. Malone then you still have the likes of Hugh McFadden, Daire O'Baoill, Max Campbell, McCahill, Martin, Curran and others who have been added to the panel. We'll still be well able to give any team a good game on our day. Lockjaw (Donegal) - Posts: 10538 - 10/11/2026 10:29:23 2699934 Link
