Extremely sh!te would be more apt.
The average age of our team must have been 18.
Im all for giving young players a chance and have advocated for it all through the past but by jaysus that was taking the p!ss. We had 12 players in the panel last night who have never played in the LOI before.

Derry had quite a few players missing fingal looked decent but you would expect that from the signings they havemade during the break

Not sure, I know that we were in talks with most Premier teams about friendlies but the only confirmed ones I have at the mo are Dundalk on Fri (27th I think) followed by Drogheda on Sunday 1st March.

Is the Pat's game tomorrow a sell-out?
