I dont think Noel was giving an excuse - merely information. In the home game against Conn we had a full team and this was reflected in that result.
I feel Cross has done well this year. They have a low number of players, are squeezed by Ballinrobe and Moyne Villa (Galway), they do not have their own ground and have no underage structure. They are only formed a few years and have taken points of some good teams. Credit where it's due.
Yesterdays game showed how good Conn Rangers are. They played lovely football and the game was very clean with the exception of one tackle which we will not talk about (poor lad -rush of blood). Conn were very good on the wing and their two big centre backs were difficult to get by. Providing they can keep their young players they are capable of playing much higher in the league.
