Im not sure where you are going with the humble pie and agenda remarks that are obviously aimed at me. I have been mega positive all year towards the team and management. The league is over so an honest opinion is what I have offered. Clare had nothing to play for yesterday, we were playing for survival. They kicked 8 two pointers under little or no pressure from us. Their full forward line kicked a whopping 24 points.With the very same wind we kicked one two pointer. Did you see the last few minutes of the game. They missed several goal chances including the crossbar that saved us from Div 4. I'm not forgetting the drubbing we got in 3 other games. The league has been a disaster but it's over now and onwards and upwards for the game in 3 weeks time. Hopefully some of the injured players will be back in contention because we need a full compliment. eoinog (Sligo) - Posts: 2356 - 23/03/2026 12:20:34 2662487 Link 1 |

We all watched the same game and overall Sligo is extremely lucky to have retained D3 status. On that basis, no progress from last year. A lot of players tried and tested with a longer view in mind. Sligo's biggest fault to me, is the lack of bite in the defensive tackle, 8 x 2 pointers would not occur if real pressure was imposed on the kicker. Defensive steel has been absent throughout the League. I also feel that the player/ manager cohesion that was apparent under McEntee has not been developed yet. An unexpected good run in the Championship or Tailteann is all that can save the current managerial setup from coming under intense pressure next year.
