Aidan Forker deserves a nomination in my opinion, been his best season in years.

Club games Friday night and Monday - are there any county players still in the country?? I hate that when the county season is done they think they are above playing club football for a few weeks until they are brought back to earth by a voice in the crowd telling them the truth.

I blame the player more for not putting his toe behind it just to remove the doubt but it was a massive call for the ref to give at that time. Dublin scored the free and pushed on.Quote from: Itchy on July 16, 2023, 10:45:30 AM
O Hanlon definitely lifted it off the ground. Monaghan lost due to running out of steam with 10 to go while Dublin were bringing on top class players as subs. Tough to take but zero to do with the ref.
Ball was off the ground.
Absolutely changed the game in a game so tight.
Is there any clip of this doing the rounds at the time i though he touched it on the ground?

Tickets have went pretty quick there, got 4 together but already limited tickets left. Wonder will there be more released during the week?

The number of opinions and formats here shows exactly how hard it would be to a. Please everyone and b. Get the best suitable format i.e not many and not too few games. The number of teams in JFC doesn't lend itself to traditional formats unless you are looking straight knockout. Even then someone is going to have to play prelim etc. Our fixtures, structures and formats are generally pretty good in comparison to other counties. Let's not use this as another stick to beat CCC.
Straight knockout with a preliminary round was done for many years without any problems.
That may be your opinion and no issue with that. But there has to be some reason they have veered away from that format this year. It would suggest it was not without problems or complaints.

Ref was threatened at HT apparently and walked off. Can't blame him.
Genuinely surprised by the limited responses on this one. There will be no Championships running at all if they go on strike similar to the refs in Wexford. We've all complained about decisions here and there but having the ref threatened enough that they leave at half time, that's mental.
If a ref is threatened, clubs should be forced to play all of their senior games away next season. That would be an effective deterrence.

Top two teams in groups into quarter final. 3rd place in group 1 into quarter final. 3rd place teams in group 2 and 3 have a play off game to see who gets into quarter final. Quarter finals pencilled in for September 16th. We have a small panel and most of our boys play hurling and soccer. In my opinion it's too much. Teams in Div 4 will be sick of the sight of each other.
That is a ridiculous set up. Games just for the sake off it. It will dilute all sense of championship atmosphere.
There is actually a round Robin of 3 teams and no one is eliminated. Bizarre

Can anyone tell me what happens in Div 4 after tonight's fixtures? I believe the league splits into top six and bottom six. Does that mean each club then has 5 more league fixtures or 10? Or does the split have some relevance to the JFC?
Yes, I have asked our committee and I'm none the wiser!!

Is Tailteann final down for before one of the AI semi finals?

@supersub and @hard2listen2 thank you. I see Paddypower have odds released for the senior championship already but none for the intermediate or junior.
I usually observe the football from a distance but can't help but notice a few teams across each division underperforming based off league standings in recent years. Can anyone shed some light? Burren in division 1, Rostrevor in 2, Darragh cross and Tullylish in 3, and Ardglass in 4. Most of them have been competing in their respective championship finals or leagues in recent years

Will he be returning from the United States every Friday?

Carryduff wanted to video it and asked bryansford if it was ok, bryansford agreed as long as they got a copy. Carryduff won't share the footage because it shows there player( Connery) punching bryansford player.Quote from: PTC on May 30, 2023, 07:07:35 PMQuote from: downtothecore on May 30, 2023, 05:17:57 PM
No issue hasn't gone away. A kilcoo lad got busted in an off the ball incident at a reserve at the weekend so unfortunately problem still exists. Also brannigan has been suspended for a month so it wasnt overlooked.
Plus carryduff wont share footage of their match with bryansford because of Connery's dirty action. It's laughable
Care to elaborate?
