Replying To JimB1991:  "Clifford out would have the bigger impact
I think Donegal were falling into the trap during the Ulster championship of being over reliant on Murphy and players almost waiting for Murphy to do something and not taking responsibility themselves. There has been a noticeable change since Tyrone, and they must have spoke about it. In the Louth game for example it seemed there were times Murphy was deliberately not making himself an option, he stood as one of the 3 back on more than one occassion and seemed he was pointing at and ordering other players to move into the sort of positions he normally takes up."
Donegal have three of the top 5 scoring forwards from play and none of those three are Murphy.

Replying To Tirchonaill1:  "Why do so many people particularly it seems the southern media refer to Jim McGuinness as 'Jimmy' as if they know him or are very familiar with him or something?
It's just tripe from know nothings mostly."
Christ you've little to be worrying about.

Replying To legendzxix:  "Listening to Jimmy McGuiness after the Mayo game and recently on a local interview, he hasn't fallen off the back of a lorry. Looking to be competitive! :-D
Donegal have been the clear favourites since pulling up during the league. If I don't say it - who's going to say it?"

Welsh is the proper anglicised version of Breathnach which means Welsh person.

Some people have short memories. Donegal, Dublin, Galway and Armagh were the favourites going into the quarter finals.
