Donovan: We can’t be complacent

Sligo captain Ross Donovan had warned his team-mates against complacency in the Big Apple tomorrow.

The teak-tough defender, part of the Sligo team that won in New York five years ago in the campaign that yielded a historic Connacht title, is wary of the challenge posed by their weekend hosts.

“This trip to New York is exciting but it is a championship game and we can’t look past it,” the Eastern Harps clubman explained. “A lot of us were there in 2007 and we know that if you get caught up in the hype you are only codding yourself. New York are there to put an effort in and do a job.”
