Cassidy absence from reunion avoids further controversy
Six of Jim McGuinness’ 2011 panel have been invited to play in an unofficial game between the college’s winning teams of 2002 and 2004/’05 organised by current Sligo footballer and former student Alan Costello.
Donegal assistant boss Rory Gallagher played on the ‘02 college side but it’s not certain whether he was asked as well. It had been rumoured at least one of the Donegal players was anxious about the prospect of Cassidy attending the event after he was ousted from the panel by McGuinness for disclosures about the team’s preparations in a recently-published book.
