"It's going to be tough and we know it's going to be tough"

Meath coach Colm Nally
Enjoyment is at the core of Colm Nally’s coaching philosophy.
The former Newtown Blues and Louth netminder accepted an invitation from Meath manager Andy McEntee to join his backroom team late last year and it has very much been a case of so far, so good.
Promotion to Division 1 was secured back in the Spring and now they are putting the final touches to their preparations for a first Leinster SFC final appearance in five years.
“To be honest, they've been brilliant to me but the biggest success is that they're all enjoying it; the players come to training smiling, the music is on in the dressing room and it's a cool place to be at the minute,” Nally outlined in an interview with the Irish Independent.
“If they go back to the clubs with that vibe, more players will want to be part of it, more fans will get behind us and that's what you're hoping for.
“That's all down to Andy McEntee in fairness. He's in charge of this. He's facilitating it.”
The Balbriggan native and the Royal players are well aware of the difficult task that awaits them at GAA HQ in tomorrow’s Leinster SFC decider.
“It's going to be tough and we know it's going to be tough.
“They know they're up against it but if they walk off that pitch having given their best performance of the year, we'll be delighted with that, regardless of the score.”
