Rory Gallagher upbeat despite ‘harmless enough’ effort

The verdict? Pretty harmless.

Not our words, but those of Donegal manager Rory Gallagher who sounded anything but devastated after his side fell well short of a shot at Kerry and a tilt at a national title which the county hasn’t claimed since 2007.

“Definitely harmless enough, I suppose, in the greater scheme of things. It was played at a fairly pedestrian pace, even in the first half when it was fairly competitive, but the reality is the last 20 minutes were a non-event.”
