Karen Guthrie says Donegal’s ladies have to ‘move on’ from the constant talk of players who have left their ranks.
Yesterday, Donegal – with just seven survivors from last year’s Ulster final – eked out a win over Tyrone to move into the Ulster semi-final.
“It’s no disrespect to the girls who are gone, but we have to get to the stage where we stop talking about that and we just get on with what we have,” Guthrie told Donegal Daily/Donegal Sport Hub after the game.
“The girls who have come in have done unbelievably well. We have to move on. Life goes on. Maxi (Curran) and the boys have done every well and the girls who have come in have massive ground to make up in such a short space of time.”
Donegal were nine in front at a stage with Geraldine McLaughlin (2) and Niamh Hegarty goaling, but Tyrone hit back.
Guthrie said: “We knew they had enough players and pace to cause us bother.
“We should have put the game to bed, there’s no doubt. We’ve had a habit of not closing the game out, but there were so many positives.”
