Derry Club Football & Hurling original

[lenny]

A complete shambles. Everyone new 4 went down this year. The seeding if anything was put in to benefit the clubs that finished higher in the groups.

Those 8 clubs should have been put in 2 groups of 4 and played each other round robin. Bottom 2 in each group goes down. That way teams have a few games to save themselves rather than a one off match. If that had been the case I'd say there wouldn't have been the same objections. Looks like relegation won't happen this year so it is a bit shambolic but maybe it suits the powers that be also.

As I predicted, relegation not happening seems to have suited the powers that be even though appeals were thrown out. There needs to be engagement with the clubs and an agreement re the leagues for next season. Everything needs agreed and everyone on board before the season starts.

Any predictions for Senior QFs, relegation playoffs, IFC Sfs or JFC? Swatragh fancy themselves for an upset?

Are the relegation play offs going to go ahead?

Rumours of teams appealing. Anyone any information what the case for appeal is?

Won't matter anyway, they will just change it again in the off season to suit the 'big clubs'. You really think they are going to let Bellaghy or Ballinascreen go down? No chance.

Surprise surprise, exactly as I said weeks ago.

Wasn't there a real bad row between Ballinderry and I think Lavey? about 20 years ago and both teams were banned for the rest of that season meaning both would be relegated, so they then created 1A and 1B league divisons for the following season in order to keep them as Senior clubs? Or did I imagine all that happening?

Is this a case of Derry CCC knowing when this went to the DRA they would loose and decided to save everyone the hassle, especially the amount of players having to train whilst waiting on the outcome?

Is the Derry county final on TG4, RTE or are the county board showing it live

I don't know if that is true or not but I used to liked the 1A / 1B set-up. A1 was competitive and good quality but also gave a lot more teams a go at the senior championship

What happens now with relegation? Will there be a fresh draw

Enda Muldoon joined Pius as a GAA Development Officer. Is this a Derry Board move. Barker making changes already?

Is Johnny McGurk in a similar role at St. Marys? Ronan Devlin I think originally had that role, before returning eventually as a PE teacher.

Not sure how the funding works, you would imagine a split enterprise somewhere between the school, Derry GAA and maybe even Ulster GAA.

Who are the big dawgs in the MacCrory Cup this year? If St Pius and St Colm's Derry could get into it, surely that be some lifter

If I'm taking a 10 year old to the Derry senior final, do they need a ticket or do they get free admission? Thanks

Is it just me or is upping the price per round by a couple of quid not a rip off ? Same sport, same players, no better quality, so......

Still fairly cheap compared to quite a few counties.
