By Michael McMullan CAVAN manager Raymond Galligan has recalled Gearóid McKiernan to the Cavan squad ahead of the 2025 season, Gaelic Life can confirm. The Cavan Gaels player wasn’t of the plans in Galligan’s first season but is back on board. It comes after a similar move in Donegal where former star Michael Murphy has […]
CAVAN have announced two changes to their starting line-up ahead of Saturday’s third and final group stage match against Roscommon, a game they have no choice but to win if they’re to progress in the competition. Their usual net-minder Gary O’Rourke returns in place of Liam Brady, who played in their heavy defeat to Dublin […]
By Niall Gartland IN a sense it’s all gone according to script, but the events of the last few weeks will no doubt have caused considerable consternation for fans of the Breffni County. It’s hardly the shock of the century that it’s come to this, Cavan’s All-Ireland campaign hinging on their third and final group […]
By Niall Gartland CAVAN GAA commentator Damien Donohoe believes that supporters shouldn’t throw the baby out with the bathwater after a disappointing showing against Mayo in the first round of the All-Ireland group stages. Raymond Galligan’s side slumped to a 0-20 to 1-8 defeat is what was by far their poorest showing in the championship arena […]
By Niall Gartland THROWING caution completely to the wind mightn’t be the wisest idea, but Cavan legend Damien O’Reilly wants to see the Breffni County have a proper crack at it in their first foray into the new All-Ireland round robin series. Cavan have been pitted in what could be justifiability termed a group of […]
By Michael McMullan CAVAN goalkeeper Gary O’Rourke hopes Sunday’s win over Monaghan will be a help to himself or whoever dons the Cavan number one jersey in the future. Last year it was Raymond Galligan as the last line of defence but O’Rourke has made the position on his own since starting against Donegal back […]
By Michael McMullan THIS time last year he was preparing to pull on the number one jersey but Raymond Galligan has named his side for Sunday’s Ulster SFC showdown with rivals Monaghan on Sunday in Clones (4pm). Galligan will have to prepare without Killian Clarke, Jason McLaughlin, Dara McVeety and Ryan O’Neill. The Breffni threat […]
By Niall Gartland THE Cavan footballers were brought back down to earth with a bump with a bruising defeat to Armagh last weekend, so they’ll be hoping to prove a point to themselves in their find round league clash against Fermanagh this Saturday. Promotion is now an impossibility following their 2-21 to 0-12 loss to […]
By Niall Gartland THERE’S very little room for error in Division Two so neither Cavan or visitors Meath can afford to fall short in Saturday’s league encounter at Kingspan Breffni. Cavan sit third in the table while Meath hover close by in fourth position, but the way things are going, any more dropped points could spell […]
By Niall Gartland CAVAN produced a massively encouraging performance in their first league game of the Raymond Galligan era, but it could be difficult to pick up a head of steam if they don’t put their best foot forward at home to Donegal this Sunday. The Breffni County were full value for their victory over […]
