That's just the way it is. Leinster and Munster has a backdoor for the first round losers. Kerry were beaten twice one year in Munster and still in the All Ireland Competition. FoolsGold (Cavan) - Posts: 2763 - 10/08/2017 13:57:40 2031983 Link
Replying To StirringIt: "as a point of discussion, does anyone think it's unfair that the beaten finalists get a second bite of the cherry when the provincial champions don't. Derry beat us well, yet we get another chance to get to the semi. If Derry lost the quarter final they are gone.No extra chance ! How would we feel if Cavan won Ulster and were beaten in the quarter final and the team we beat went on to win the All Ireland. Should the beaten finalists be gone. Are we taking away the shock defeat like the senior super 8 will next year ?" When do you stop giving second chance then? Semi, final??? doratheexplorer (Cavan) - Posts: 1467 - 10/08/2017 14:04:56 2031984 Link
Replying To doratheexplorer: "When do you stop giving second chance then? Semi, final???" The super 8 is going to end up as a complete joke. Take the four senior teams that played last week. Monaghan and Armagh get hammered . They would get another hammering by Dublin and Tyrone in round 2. And really would both teams be interested in playing each other in round 3 after 2 hammering and nothing at stake? It's a money thing and nothing else.

Will we be missing the Minors that played with their clubs on Sunday for The All Ireland Semi Final? Breffnisbest (Cavan) - Posts: 471 - 10/08/2017 15:24:20 2032016 Link

When do you stop giving second chance then? Semi, final??? doratheexplorer (Cavan) - Posts:1047 - 10/08/2017 14:04:56 Should any team at any level get a second chance ? The back door is just a money spinner for the GAA. Wheres the shock win/defeat element. Teams now get a second bite ( unless you're a provincial champion) The super 8 will now make sure the provincial champions get a second bite but in all honesty it's a farce of a set up. The championship should be knock out. The chance of a big upset is now gone. Just my personal opinion. incidentally, credit to the minors. It's great to see a semi final position. Don't think i'm knocking them. StirringIt (Cavan) - Posts: 374 - 10/08/2017 16:14:46 2032041 Link
The League should be the major competition for the All Ireland and the c/ship as it now stands should be knock-out and the second competition. lose and you're out. The League should be re-named and played in a Champions League format with home and away games ensuring at least 6 matches for every team.

Replying To Breffni81: "who played for there clubs?" Read this weeks match reports and you will easily figure that one out yourself. Breffnisbest (Cavan) - Posts: 471 - 11/08/2017 10:13:01 2032255 Link
What a great achievement for John and his backroom team, they have managed this talented squad to reach the All Ireland semi-final When the lads get rob the final they will beat Derry and we will have an all Ireland again. Good luck to all our county men potnorwindow (Cavan) - Posts: 363 - 15/08/2017 01:55:48 2033489 Link

Surely some little part of the Credit should be given to the 2 men that were there for 18 months up to the Ulster Final. Breffnisbest (Cavan) - Posts: 471 - 15/08/2017 15:25:50 2033678 Link

Also huge credit to the coaches & selectors of the various development squads that brought these lads through from u14 level despite the rubbish that people spouting on here. It's a coordinated effort from all groups & great to see it being effective bond (Longford) - Posts: 174 - 15/08/2017 23:26:40 2033956 Link

John Brady John Young are proven trophy winners I don't know much about the others on the backroom team but I am sure young Jack has won several quality medals over the last few years and the young lads must surely have respect for those helping. No praise to anyone else except of course the players who are a great bunch of lads and have shut most of the bedgrudgers up and long may it continue. Jesus if they win Sunday and I have no reason to think they cannot who will people dig up to start giving credit too. John Brady and John Young have been a long time around and have I would say nearly seen every potential minor for the last five years if not more. I saw them both for years watching matches so they did their background for sure. The Brady family have some history behind them and it shows.

Management show them nothing but respect. They make changes and people knock them who should know better than the management who are up for it or not. I have been around a long time and seen the good and bad side of it and for me the current management are doing a great job and not taking credit for something they had nothing to do with like others. It will be great coming home Sunday evening with another win all going well and there is no reason why one should think otherwise. Galway Cork Dublin Kerry, Cavan are capable of beating them on the day. This is the glory of Minor football and Hurling hot today cold tomorrow so be positive let's hope people stop the negative crap it's fecking sole destroying.

Actually if you got down of your high horse for a minute you might realise I was also praising John Brady because he was manager of the county u16 development squad for 2 years when this current team were at that group.... maybe you should think before you jump to defend..... bond (Longford) - Posts: 174 - 16/08/2017 14:49:31 2034249 Link
