Talking to a couple of the Meath players earlier in the week and could not believe how down in the mouth they were.Yeah the Dublin set back hurt us all and no doubt the players even harder. But they were practically feeling sorry for themselves.

Come on guys get rid of this negativity. We are still very much in the championship. A win against Armagh and that Dublin game will be a thing of the distant past. And to be quite honest Donegal are very beatable.

We are getting a second chance and maybe another shot at the Dubs. But only if the panel approach the next couple of weeks with a smily, steely mentality in their steps. Remember we did not do ourselves justice on Leinster final day. Be like the Meath teams of old. Fearing no opposition. You have the ability.

If Mick O Dowd and his management team, perhaps their biggest battle, get this little bit of gloom and doom out of the way, 2014 could still be a roaring success.

I think if they give a "feel sorry" type display against Armagh,well,they could be in trouble..

If thats the case they would be better to stay home on Saturday. Let Ziggy, Hteam, Jinxie, Royaldunne and a few others on here who have a belief line out instead. I think we have got a second chance here on Saturday and if the Players don't realise that then what hope do we have?? MOD needs to lift the players and forget about the Leinster Final. We have every chance of beating Armagh but without belief we have no chance

Ya if they do come out with any less than 100% certain players would have to be questioned,but,to be fair,lets see us play the game first..

Doom and gloom should have lifted by now, if not then we are in serious trouble, no place for players feeling sorry for themselves, managements job to make sure that every player that is given a Meath jersey is in the right frame of mind for this very important game.

I have no doubt that they will. Lookingforward to Saturday and really feel the players will lift it for this game and get us through to the 1/4 finals
