Fair play to Lamh Dhearg, nobody can deny or begrudge a few of the older hands a championship medal.

GAA policy of promoting the game in foreign countries and Big cities..

How strong have Cargin been at minor level in this last 10 years?
All clubs get year groups were they aren't very strong.
I remember our club playing in the minor B. It was the level most suited to that particular year group. We won the minor A a year or two later. It's a silly argument.
Been more than a few failures this term in minor competition.
Cannot remember a Cargin juvenile team not fulfilling their fixture in the well structured and organised South West leagues and think few in this region will be impressed at how the All County minor leagues have progressed.
Are there finalists from Belfast in the Under 16 and minor this years?
Jeez finger on the pulse MR2..
Was the All county league final at under 16 I was referring to, that Ballymena team is decent enough, by your sums they should be lording it come senior ..

I have inputted Lenny's interview into some very complex algorithm software and I have reached some very startling conclusions.
He uses the words "south-west" on one occasion, "south west" (without the hyphen) on one occasion and "Belfast" on two occasions.
I think we can put the SW/Belfast debate to bed now. Lenny is there for all of us!! Viva Lenny!

If it hadn't of been for the Casement Social Club sponsoring a couple of the games where highlights have been provided, they wouldnt of been done. Th county wouldn't provide the money for some games to be videoed and that's why a few earlier rounds weren't covered the way they were in 2016.
I definitely think there is merit in doing what Armagh have done and broadcast them live. I know a few mates in San Fran enjoyed watching the games this year.
Where they staying in the SW of San Fran?

is there no chance we could ever look at getting the games streamed live for the likes of a final? Armagh TV are years ahead of everyone and its brilliant to use to watch a game.
this is totally non SW, lenny etc related so it may cause confusion lol
Does it involve the county board spending money? Then no
Does it involve some forward thinking by the county board? Then no
Does it involve a strategy, willing volunteers, a process of works to highlight the countys presence? Then no
Does it involve taking away from the potential gate receipts at a county final? Then no
It could be a money maker. Pastie Quinn from C'Dall streamed the Semi & Final live on FB and charged a donation in return for doing so, he was doing the half marathon for Marie Curie so he used his go fund me page to collect money. Great idea. £5 per game or say a £40 one off season ticket and sure your laughing.
The highlights over the last few seasons have superb and the work of the PRO and his volunteers should be built upon. Same as the Saffron Gael, superb idea by Curly and Paddy.
Credit wheres its due our PRO has vastly improved the service since his introduction. I've no qualms in saying he was one of SVs more inspired moves. Perhaps himself and Pastie could team up somehow?

I'd tipped Lamhs this year, I thought they had the tools a couple of years ago but lacked a bit of belief The Johnnies though have had a decent season and had the measure of 2 times champions Cargin in both games, can score goals, as can Lamhs! Two different tactics so whoever wins the tactical battle will win as they are evenly matched...
Good luck to both teams... who has the lovely job of refereeing this game??
Has to be Sean Laverty or Karol Doherty I think. 2 very good refs and deserve the recognition.
One did the semi?
