Great win in Donegal

Have to hold my hand up and say that the trip here was a little much for my blood. The option of a full day's sleep and lots of Easter Egg eating was just too much to turn down.
By all accounts an excellent performance, with only the usual stuff about too many wides darkening the day. Still, it's great to see them come out on the right side of a one point game for a change - it's a long time since that's happened.
Main thing now is to maintain concentration - I can't see Westmeath pulling off any shocks in Castlebar, but all the same you don't want them going in at half time up there knowing they have a sniff.
Anyway, a good win next week will leave them in fairly confident form and progressing nicely for the first gae in the championship, which is after all the main aim.
So for that alone, kudos to management and players alike. Well done lads.
