"A young team got jumped on by a very experienced team," McStay summed up in a very admirable interview after the game. "We never got off the blocks and they just went for the jugular."https://twitter.com/RTEgaa/status/894570927656116225 McStay is one of the most likable personalities in football right now. He's held himself with pure dignity in the face of unjust adversity this year and he produced a tactical masterclass that wowed the country and ambushed Galway in Salthill. Time after time, he felt the need to reassure the public that the Roscommon camp was a happy and united one but he had to wait to prove it. Come the bank holiday Monday at headquarters, there was no denying the closeness of the group. During the national anthem as the yellow jerseys went shoulder to shoulder for one last time this year, Sean Mullooly showed his true affection for his team mate Cathal Compton. A gentle caress of the cheek, two mischievous grins and you get the picture that this is a band of brothers with good spirit and high morale. They'll be back again next year. And they'll be smiling along the way too. Thanks to Cian Ansbro for sending this our way.
