By Niall Gartland CAVAN have a worrying spread of injuries heading into their final round Division Two clash at home to Cork this Sunday. A number of mainstays of their team – Oisin Kiernan, Jason McLoughlin, Darragh Lovett, Conor Madden and Killian Clarke – sat out their highly impressive win over Roscommon last weekend because of injury, […]
By Niall Gartland CAVAN’S streak of three straight victories means they still have a slim chance of promotion as they look ahead to their penultimate Division Two clash against Roscommon this Sunday. Barring an incredibly unlikely chain of events, the Breffni County secured their Division Two safety in a hugely entertaining win over Down nearly […]
Cavan’s Aisling Sheridan has had an illustrious career at both home and in Australia. She spoke to Daire Walsh… SHE has achieved a considerable amount in her career to date, but Cavan footballer Aishling Sheridan still regards her O’Connor Cup success with DCU Dóchas Éireann back in 2018 as one of her ‘favourite sporting memories’. After […]

By Niall Gartland THERE’S nothing like a few wins to satiate supporters and Cavan have certainly turned things around in the space of a few short weeks. After back-to-back defeats to Monaghan and Meath, Raymond Galligan’s team had nothing to show for their efforts heading into their round three match against Louth. But they won […]
By Niall Gartland THE Cavan hurlers will have, almost inadvertently, have had a fortnight’s break by Sunday’s Division Three encounter at home to Wicklow. Their match against Armagh was called off last week following a pitch inspection at Kingspan Breffni, the second time one of their matches has been placed on temporary hiatus in this […]
By Niall Gartland WHAT a difference a week makes. Cavan will travel to Westmeath this Sunday with a renewed sense of optimism after they belatedly claimed their first league win in last weekend’s encounter against Louth. The discourse surrounding the Cavan set-up has been palpably negative following back-to-back defeats to Kildare and Louth. Well, supporters […]
