Down Club Hurling & Football

[Lotto]

Agree also. No point hanging around to play in the tailteann Cup. Come back next year and commit to football and see where it takes them. Only young once

Management should be looking at games in the first 4 or 5 fixtures to see players who could potentially step up if Down panellists disappear.

Yeah, just throw the towel in and slip away off back to your club or jet off to the States when you are really needed. Hasn't this snowflake mentality got us into the position we are currently in, when things get tough just walk away.

As for the 2022/23 management, after 5 years of underachievement and mediocrity with the Minors and relegation with the Seniors should Mc Cartan & crew even be back next year? Back to square one I know but I don't see any future in this current set up. A new man nearly always gets a bounce from the players in his first year, it has been totally the opposite here so why continue with it?

No chance, after county season finishes a handshake and new management brought in and give them what they want. Need a Geezer type manager, someone who'll take no shite from players or County Board. Give whoever it is 4 or 5 years with a review at year 3 to see how it's going.

This chopping and changing will get us nowhere.

Interesting choice.

A person much more cynical than me might observe that McGeeney's only achievement of note as a manager has been convincing people to keep him in post long enough for Riain O'Neill to come of age.

 You're a few hours early for April fools wobbler

I don't know why players committed to the league known they were going stateside in the summer

How can you build anything with that attitude?

Let the management know before a ball is kicked

A good run in the Tailten cup and start building now for next year.
If you are in great let's go and if not thanks for everything let's move on

The management need to be ruthless with older players also

I hope the people of Saval nominate Danny Hughes for the county board.

Danny, Mark Doran, and John Fegan are the men that can change the fortunes of this county.

Danny for Chair.

I just had lunch in French's and was told by a leading figure in Down GAA that Burren has signed an Armagh player. He heard that at a county board meeting last evening in the Burrendale. Whitegoodman can fill us in.
