Sorry we did not meet some team of this standard last time and we would get a proper evaluation of where we stand. There will be no place for sherkers next week end, TIME FOR ALL to stand together and leave 100% on that pitch both physically and above all mentally. It is possible.

Oh I am going to enjoy this week......we have a chance here boys, home venue is a big thing here but don't expect it to be pretty, might make last Saturday look like a classic Richieq (Meath) - Posts: 3734 - 03/07/2017 09:50:17 2009391 Link 1 |

Happy to get the home draw, Donegal will start as favourites but for me, if we play like we did in the latter parts of the league then we're in with a great chance of winning, if we play like we have in our 3 chanpsionship games so far then we'll probably lose.

People seem happy with the draw, we got the hardest team possible in Donegal, they have no injuries like mayo, based on what I seen on Saturday I'm not sure home advantage is an advantage. Expecting the worst redser123 (Meath) - Posts: 402 - 03/07/2017 10:11:17 2009407 Link 0 |

Great draw, but I would have preferred Mayo. But nothing is going to get the lads to focus there minds more than a top team like Donegal coming to town. I reckon not many will give us a chance and that will suit us. Its a massive game if we where to win this it could really set us up. It s one we could win but we are going to have up it big time. We need all our big players to step up and firing on all cylinders that is Leinhan COS BIggy Keoghan Menton etc. We really struggle against defense teams (most teams do but we seem to suffer more that others) If Jones and D Tobin are injured its not going help matters. Games like these are ideal from a mangers point of view as he could learn a lot from who is going to shine on the big day. Looking forward to this one. bobkarlgees (Meath) - Posts: 1263 - 03/07/2017 10:18:00 2009416 Link 0 |

Got the all important home draw, neither team going very well, our first win in qualifiers for years should add a bit of confidence, expect a dour affair similar to Saturday. seadog54 (Meath) - Posts: 2136 - 03/07/2017 10:28:00 2009433 Link 0 |

look confidence was low after the bad beating to kildare. all the pressure was on us against sligo. we dug it out. would stick with the same system,just in attack move the ball a bit quicker. the players will relish this game and if we do lose at least it is to a decent side. ziggy32001 (Meath) - Posts: 8354 - 03/07/2017 10:28:28 2009434 Link 0 |

Well lads! I have to say initial thoughts up here is that this will be a very tricky assignment and difficult to call. People might say we have better players overall, and we've been operating at a higher level than Meath in recent years but that might count for nothing on Saturday evening. Our lads' confidence looks to be shot after the Tyrone game. We played with 14 men behind the ball against Longford and staggered past them. Only got about 5 points from play and created zero goal chances. Lockjaw (Donegal) - Posts: 9116 - 03/07/2017 10:31:46 2009444 Link 0 |

Is Rory Gallagher out of his depth?

I think it is a good draw, first because it is at home and Donegal have been going downhill since the league and their confidence would not be improved by the Tyrone beating. This is a much better draw than Clare away, or Mayo at home. If the matches v Sligo and one v Longford is anything to go by it will make very difficult watching, but still should be a good atmosphere. browncows (Meath) - Posts: 2342 - 03/07/2017 11:15:21 2009478 Link 0 |

To be honest I have never been as excited to see Micheal Murphy live ! I have been such a big admirer of him over the years ! Hopefully he has a bad game though !!

In 2002 when Donegal beat us it really showed us our last good Meath team was gone, it would be nice to return favour to Donegal this year. Surely we can't be as bad again for third game in a row ? bdbuddah (Meath) - Posts: 1338 - 03/07/2017 11:26:01 2009486 Link 0 |

Judging by the negativity oozing from the terrace In PT the last day. The crowd might be the 16th man for Donegal. I thought the whole idea of being a "supporter" was to get behind the team. Two geniuses behind us spent the entire first half criticising the players. Calling for them various players to be taken off. (By the end of the first half they had called for most of the team to be substituted). Shouting abuse. Constantly criticising Graham Reilly. It was so bad we had to move. They weren't alone, I thought the crowd were very quick to get on players backs... if people are that negative about the team why don't they just go do something else with their Saturday afternoon.
