DONEGAL manager Declan Bonner was pleased with the showing of his side’s young guns in last night’s McKenna Cup win over Derry.
Caolan Ward’s second-half goal helped earn a 1-10 to 0-8 win at Celtic Park.
“The young lads coming into the squad are all showing pretty well,” Bonner told the assembled media.
“It was a good performance that sets us up for the semi-final.
“It was a good work-out. We had a lot of good performances and that’s good to build confidence in those players. As a group, I thought they did extremely well.
“We have a lot of new lads playing to the system. It can be difficult at times when they’re not used to it, but they have come in and showed a great attitude.”
However, the big talking point was certainly Bonner’s comments regarding the availability of players, which has thrown Sunday’s game into doubt.
