Replying To Taypot:  "I'm not so sure that Div 3 is weaker this year. Fermanagh appear to be the whipping boys this year. We were beaten by the top 2 teams last year and I think it will be the same this year. People expected that once we got in the local mgt that they would bring in lads that were supposed to have got a raw deal last year. That's why I went through the names that the other poster had listed. Nothing has really changed. It's the same lads. Div 3 is our standard and I can't see that changing in the next few years."
Can't agree with that. There has been a massive change in the composition of the panel. Ross, Sheridan, Flynn, Casserley, Gorman were nowhere near the team last year as McEntee selected the players who played for him over the previous 5 years and largelt ignored the claims of the succeessful u20 teams. The team got stale as he continued to pick the same players with very little change. New mgmt have brought in many of the younger players (including the 5 mentioned above who all started last weekend) this will bear fruit in the years to come.
