have a sneaky Kildare will draw Cavan in the qualifiers.. It happened last year, when I correctly predicted that Meath and Louth would pair off after the Leinster Final debacle the previous year.. Some things are meant to be and I believe through fate, that Cavan and Kildare will meet..

Pray that we don't get Kildare. They are miles ahead of us with or without Johnston.

Cavan are as likely to get Kildare as they are any other team, no point playing the guessing game.

Go on lads make a load of banners it'll be the funniest thing to happen at a GAA match in years. Here's a few:

"Down with this sort of thing"

"Seanie - The money is just resting in your account!"

"If Kildare doesn't work out....... there's always Kilkenny"

"Judas Johnston"

(Lord of the rings "One does not simply walk into Mordor) "One does not simply... transfer from Cavan!"

The whole Seanie Johnston thing has without doubt caused controversy and will do for some time to come. Like most in Kildare I was totally against the move from the start. There is a lot of blame going and I don't mind the discussions and opinions on it, it actually helps. But to see the stuff on these forums is sickening, what's going on in some of these threads is an 'incitement to hatred' directed at one individual. Throw it at Kildare if need be it's not personalised that way and no one is going to suffer for life.

I feel for Seanie Johnston and any of his family who are witnessing the vile on these forums. I know the odd idiot will respond about sense of humor, brought it on himself etc but that is rubbish. Seanie for all the trouble his transfer has caused is a brave, dignified, determined young man. He has far more character than a lot coming on here.

conleth i didn't see you say that when joe sheridan received 10 times more abuse? if you're going on about the banners there only a bit of fun and if you're going on about the endless amount of posts and threads about him on hoganstand and every other GAA website it's still deserved. he only moved out of cavan to play with Kildare. It's against the ethos of the GAA and I hope nobody else is brave enough to try it again.

Obviously St.Conleth you don't know the person you are writing about for if you did you would not have made your post.

I don't believe there is any hatred towards this person just many are unhappy that one of our better players decides to walk from Cavan? Cavan let me remind you has done a lot for him. Maybe Mr Johnston should reflect and think about what certain quarters did
to look after him as a young boy and when he was studying, short memory let me tell you.

Rumour has it that your present manager is about to depart from Kildare so will Mr Johnston try and transfer to the county he moves too.

I hope he plays nest Sunday week this way the will he wont he will be gone forever and we as genuine Cavan people can forget about him and move on.

I agree with the Kildare poster, in terms of recognising the sensitivities involved. Seanie is a young man who made a decision, an amateur footballer who made a decision. Whether you or I agree with it think about what you say and it's effect on the chap.

Slagging and a bit of craic is one thing but focussed commentary on a particular individual is something you need to think long and hard about.

I will be shouting for my team next week but there is a young Cavan teacher out there who has committed no crime and we show him some courtesy even if you disagree with him

st conleth, well said i dont agree with what seanie done , but he is a person that has to live a life too, and i think people should lay off him, he,l know in time that he shouldnt have made the move, if he had to knuckle down and fight for his place he more than likely would be faceing kildare sun week. and he prob have more of a chance of winning something with cavan the way underage football has been going and the talent coming through, all do he might win a team weights lifting comp with kildare.

You make your bed and then you lie on it.
Sean Johnston has to live with the consequences of what he did!
Do you honestly expect everyone to sit back and say nothing when a former Cavan player togs out and runs out on Breffni park playing for another county against his own?????
