Donegal entered the final stages of theirAuthentic Cowboys Jerseys preparations zyhaa917 for the All-Ireland final against Mayo by bringing their training camp from Carton House in Maynooth, to Johnstown House in Meath yesterday.It had been initially mooted that the squad would prepare at Glasgow Celtic's training complex, but they instead elected to stay in Ireland, given the facilities available for training specific to Gaelic football.
Manager Jim McGuinness has given an insight intoOfficial Cowboys Jerseys how his squad will cope with the pressure of the biggest game of their lives.All throughout the Championship season he has spoken of a set criteria for his team to execute and perform, and he echoed that again when he said, “The focus has always been on tasked goals and when they work that way, they all perform. There is a synergy in the team and they all know what we're working on.”
Elaborating on the theme, he explained, “Where you'dTony Romo Jerseys get nervous would be if you removed yourself from that and you just put yourself mentally in a situation where you thought, ‘this is the All-Ireland final, I've never played in a final before, I'd love an All-Ireland medal, Jesus the homecoming is going to be great!'“These are all things that mean nothing, but if you hadn't got these things to focus you in training and on the field of play, those other things could come into play. All the boys are worried about or thinking about is what we are coaching them.”
He continued, “For that reason, I have good faith that Miles Austin Jerseysthey'll stick to the tried and tested. We have done that for two years and they have stuck by it in every game.”While Mayo coach James Horan has insisted that his side will keep to the same regime they have followed all year, as well as hosting an open day for fans on Friday, McGuinness prefers a measure of secrecy to preparations.Last year Joe Brolly said that he was prevented from watching a Donegal training session, and this year they went on a retreat between the Cavan and Derry Championship games.
Speaking after the semi-final against Cork, McGuinness Demarco Murray Jerseysdetailed the type of training they would be doing in the run-up to the final.“We will look at ourselves”, he said, “and then the focus will move on to the opposition and back to ourselves.“Our training will have to go to a new level again, we’ll have to try and improve in every aspect of our play again, make sure no stone is left unturned in our preparations. After that you have to just trust them to do the job.
