Replying To Gantric: "Should be a straight forward Monaghan win, Mayo are the 4th team in Connacht now behind the top 2 of Galway and Leitrim and then a big drop back to Roscommon in 3rd."
Yikes, keep out of the sun Gantric. The folly of ignorance. Best of luck in the Tailteann Cup. Love to all.
Replying To Willies24: "How so? Did they not gain promotion to division 1? Surely that's a successful year for any team? Players and coaches all spoke very highly of him. It's amazing when he got Leitrim promoted he was still considered a poor manager by a lot of Leitrim people. Should have got promoted in his second year and did so in his third. Yet the same people say the current manager is doing a fantastic job. Current managers league form is poor and bar a good result against a Sligo side who are in real trouble it hasn't been a great 2 years. So what are your requirement for a successful year? Wexford going to Division 2 will be a step too far for us I fear especially without Barry, Tom and Cillian but I will cling to a small bit of hope."
I take you haven't watched much Leitrim football over the last few years. Even with all the upheaval, the current team is better drilled and focused then anything the last lad ever did with them. AND the current manager doesn't have another county manager standing beside him which the last lad had. Anyhow, the writing is on the wall, the Mayo faithful won't tolerate what poor auld Leitrim did.
