Eamon McGee: A lot of rumours swirling about Donegal are simply untrue

The All-Ireland winner said it was a promising start for the county after some negative, and inaccurate, recent comment.

Despite ominous murmuring before the season even began, Sunday’s draw with Galway means Donegal are now undefeated against both of the 2022 All-Ireland finalists. Paddy Carr’s outfit currently have three points from four games.

The long search for a successor to Declan Bonner went on until late October before Carr was finally confirmed with former Armagh footballer Aidan O’Rourke as the new head coach. Last weekend they secured a 1-9 to 1-9 draw having beaten Kerry in the opening round. They are now set for a huge clash with Armagh next Saturday.
