Christopher Murrin and James Gallagher?? Is this the team John Joe would pick with a gun to his head?

Few new players worth looking at:

Mark McGowan St. Eunans
Eamon Doherty St. Eunans
Leo McLoone Glenties
Declan Gallagher Ardara
Adrian Hanlon Dungloe

These are a few possibles to get a proper run out this year to see their worth.

Feel free to suggest more......

P.S. agree that TomSmith hasn't a clue off the wall he's a Donegal want to be....

Offthefence/onthefence perhaps you could refrain from attacking TomSmyth and deal with the substantive issue of this post ie that being what should John Joe Doherty's starting fifteen be, and subs.

Here we go again, the fantasy football merchants who couldn't pick a subbuteo team! Experts like these have as much grasp with reality as those TV experts slated by R.Keane last week! Now is our chance to look at what we have. Why not let every club put forward players for trial (only players with serious potential), if every exceptional player gets a chance then no-one can complain. No club should be able to force their opinion on the Manager (which might have led to previous Manager leaving). Football is a simple game and if you play the best players you can't go wrong. McIver had the right idea in his first season but then came under pressure last season to play certain players. The Manager has to manage, be his own man, without interference. Interesting year ahead?

Ross wherity? Id say his place on the st.eunans team is under threat so dont know what your suggesting a place on the county team for. Then again there isnt much else in the rest of the county. As for the mc gee's? What exactly are they supposed to be?

As John Joe is the new manager, no doubt he will be bringing up a couple from Naomh Mhuire. Who would they most likely be?

celtic88 (Donegal) - Posts: 17 - 14/11/2008 09:24:34    141199

ayeboy (Donegal) - Posts: 33 - 16/11/2008 22:17:11    142551

Keeper you are obviously from Glenties....3 Naomh Conaill men on the starting 15...maybe u should call for the return of Mc Guinness & Gildea also!!!!...

Leo Mc Loone instead of Walsh or Bradley?????

PMolloy (Donegal) - Posts: 3 - 17/11/2008 14:03:23    142984
