Donegal Town from the air as All-Ireland finalists return from Dublin
Maybe, in some years, it was pertinent, and a little in tune with how the mood should have been following Donegal's loss to Kerry in the All-Ireland SFC final on Sunday
This is the scene from the air at Donegal Town for the Donegal team's official homecoming last night.
Manager Jim McGuinness gave a message of hope: “There will be brighter days, the rain will stop, the sun will shine and I know for a fact Donegal will be back here some day with the Sam Maguire cup.
“I hope in my heart of hearts that that day is not long away and I hope everybody on this stage will be part of that moment.”
The rain didn’t dampen spirits one bit tonight and the flags, the jerseys and the singalongs were a sample of the passionate fans that have backed Donegal all year. It‘s amazing to be going into big games knowing you have everybody in Donegal behind you 100%. Even though we were unsuccessful yesterday, everybody is still here,” said McGuinness.
