Donegal unfairly singled out in club v county debate

Donegal are being unfairly singled out and criticised for their policy of sidelining their club championship until the county team completes its championship duties, according to Jim McGuinness.

The club v county issue has been a live one in the county since last year and became a hot topic again last weekend when one of two rounds of club league games set for the Easter period fell victim to a county team request to rest players.

“What’s the norm? That’s the question I would ask,” said the Donegal manager after yesterday’s Division Two final loss to Monaghan at Croke Park.
