What Jim has done for Donegal has been epic. He inherited a shambles and what he has achieved has been incredible. It's also unthinkable that he was turned down for the manager's position several times by the board. ayeboy_wan (Donegal) - Posts: 25 - 10/09/2014 09:41:36 1650418 Link 0 |

If Donegal win it, will Jim have overtaken Mickey Harte and joined the Micko Heffo Boylan club of all time managers? Liamwalkinstown (Dublin) - Posts: 8166 - 10/09/2014 11:03:30 1650461 Link 0 |
Well Liam some people have short memories and forget very quickly the effort and time that' managers and players put in in order to achieve the success that is capped in September. SLLY (Dublin) - Posts: 463 - 10/09/2014 11:24:15 1650475 Link 0 |

Nice post, and it was really good to see the amount of dublin support who stayed on to full time. Many other counties including our own on a bad day would have split and tried to beat the traffic! Donegalman (None) - Posts: 3830 - 10/09/2014 12:13:41 1650511 Link 0 |

Its unbelieveable what Jimmy has done. Anyone who saw Donegal lose to Armagh in Crossmaglen in 2010 could not have seen what would happen next. 3 Ulster titles and 1 All-Ireland delivered to a county who last won both in 1992, defeats of all the major players Tyrone, Kerry, Cork, Monaghan, Derry, Mayo and Dublin and in time he should be included in the same ranks as Heffo, O'Dywer, Boylan, Harte etc. Byanthon (Tyrone) - Posts: 1780 - 10/09/2014 13:16:21 1650551 Link 0 |

the likes of roscommon and cavan have very little chance to break through..both are quite small counties and most of cavans youngsters are in their prime now and have not really pushed on...cavan seem to have a lot of good underage teams but they dont seem to push on after that like say a good dublin u21 team would fabio8 (USA) - Posts: 2182 - 10/09/2014 14:02:48 1650582 Link 0 |
Donegal were a shambles in 2010 and have become extremely well organised since and are hard to beat. Other counties have the potential to reach their level - the likes of Roscommon, Cavan etc. They may pick up an All-Ireland. waynoI (Dublin) - Posts: 13650 - 10/09/2014 14:13:06 1650594 Link 0 |
Wow didn't see the Cavan-bashing coming in this thread. Breffni40 (Cavan) - Posts: 12118 - 10/09/2014 14:15:20 1650596 Link 0 |
im not bashing cavan at all just i dont agree with the idea that roscommon and cavan are going to be competing for all irelands is all..cavan are doing a brilliant job underage at present and fair play to them...other counties should take note of what a smaller county can do if its managed correctly fabio8 (USA) - Posts: 2182 - 10/09/2014 14:17:26 1650600 Link 0 |
