Down Club Hurling & Football

[Truth hurts]

There would be 3rds teams well able to play in D4 never mind Premier Reserve teams.  Why has this topic even been brought up again?  Is it happening/proposed or is this just discussion?

Everyone will be  delighted as long as little Seanan from Rathgannon in Warrenpoint who was sent to Burren school can claim he is playing for Burren seconds. It is trying to be squeezed in by the south Down elite and it might be the death knell for certain clubs. Division 3 and 4 clubs need to be strong on this.

Do we have enough referees to run more games on the Friday? Would be a case of the games being split over the weekend if too many reverse teams get put into the league structure

Sure let the seconds teams play at a different time from the seniors and make them stronger.

Is this an actual real life possibility this season or is it another bullshit topic instigated by the person whose own club haven't a team to their name?

Go and ask your county board rep, I don't start bullshit .

If the bigger clubs enter another team into a Div 4 or 5 it wont be a seconds team. There will be 20 guys playing on the same night for their senior team and any involved in a county set up wont be playing either, eg. Burren might have 6/7 playing county, 20 playing in Div 1 so your really looking at a 3rds team.

You are looking at a premier reserve championship team

Not what I'm saying Truth.. I'm asking do we have enough referees because if not then games are going to be have to played on different days. That affects fixtures all over the county if that's the case

Agree.  Looking at Derry's teams so far they have gone strong in both games.  Obviously no Glen players but well established names and the bulk of the team that won Ulster last year.  What's the story with the Sigerson players for Sunday.  Will they be available for Down?

That squad would be comfortable in Divison 3 never mind 4

Cross & Killeavy both field IIs in Armagh. They're a separate entity from their respective senior sides - they generally play at the same time and are essentially a separate club. Killeavy II are very much a junior standard side and Cross II fluctuate between junior & intermediate. The world didn't end when they along with Cullyhanna, Dromintee and Clann Éireann entered IIs teams. No Div4 clubs folded (in fact one briefly emerged at one stage) Logistics more than anything will be the main barrier.
