Dundrum vs Ardglass off

Gary Walsh of Laois will have landed himself in some bother with his tweet today hopefully

What's people's views on the leagues this year. Division one should be a tight affair with Saval and Rostrevor improving the standard. Burren had a good pre season winning our tournament but I will imagine they will experiment a lot during the season.
Kilcoo still the team, can anyone touch them??

Division 1 Winners - Burren
Division 2 Winners - Glenn
Division 3 Winners - Drumgath
Division 4 Winners - Teconnaught

Dont know relegation rules this year so cant comment on that

I just think they don’t like what he does along the line
Results don’t lie get him in
The current management team will still be there in 2019 mark my words

I’m not so sure. Paddy O’Rourke had the full backing of the executive in 2006 but it still wasn’t enough (which to this day is why I’ll tell anyone who listens, that the clubs are the county board, even if they don’t believe it).


Poacher and the county board is a personality clash. Nothing much more complicated than that. His heart-on-the-sleeve, say-whatever-the-f**k-comes-into-your head approach to football just doesn’t sit well with some of our more traditional county board stalwarts.

I think the county board should realise they are no angels themselves.. As someone who plays club football, players like a manager like poacher someone who’s willing to go in the trenches with you, I’ve coached underage and the new breed of players need man management, someone passionate about Gaelic football, it’s something poacher would bring, something I don’t think the current down management do? He’d create a siege mentality like him and Turlough have done in Carlow, players buy into that that.. Just look at soccer Mourinho in his prime, Guardiola etc

Burns in line for a touchline van according to reports.. Pushed a Cavan player during the match on Sunday

I feel that eamon burns will guide this team to an Ulster title if we gain promotion back to division one.

Not a chance of that happening.. Tyrone are a cut above everyone in Ulster, and with Donegal looking impressive the way they're playing I can't see us beating either of those.

Does anyone have any idea when league fixtures/championship draw will be done??

Joe Henry managing in Down this year? Any insight on why he's like as a coach

Many clubs started back training yet?

You would have thought Sean og could have got the field covered for the night 😠

with what?

Electric Blankets with the profits from charging u16s in......

Why Burren, if dpk wasn't available surely drumgath is the next best option

Drumgath? What are you smoking

And we start again tonight
Any thoughts of what will be expected this year??
Promotion and ulster final should be the aim
We had a brutal league last year but a good championship
Although Armagh are crap Monaghan are much better
Looking forward to a big year
Harrison Millar need to hit the ground running
Harrison will be a marked man,he won't be lucky enough to be marking Wylie every game

Upper Half in Division 2, Ulster final and then hopefully super 8s would be a good year for us.. Need to stay clear of injuries though, aren't blessed with the most talented 16-30

Eventful enough Day in Parc Esler, Bright players spitting at Dundrum Players and Annaclone/Rostrevor ripping the heads of each other at the start of the game.. Bad couple of weekends in Ulster for player trouble

Pete McGrath ratified as new Louth manager

anything of note from the ccc meeting last night ?

C'mon, enlighten us then. What were you expecting?

heard that the re-grading of underage was on the agenda. wondered how it panned out. think it will eventually apply Ireland wide though regardless of what counties decide themselves

Does that mean switching to the u-11,u-13,u-15,u17??

If that did come in does that mean those in last year of u-17 would be able to play Senior football?
