Hurling championship between Armoy and Warwickshire was supposed to be today at Casement. Called off due to the pitch being unplayable.

Was that a different Armoy & Warwickshire they were reporting on in the Irish news today

As i said on Friday all of the 40 clubs have not put their application forward to participate in this years championships and that is the reason for the delay of the draw. On thurs night there were only 22 applications in with 18 still to apply

I know i was having a bit of banter earlier but why wouldn't a team want to play against Cross, Clans, Harps, Ogs etc etc in the senior championship. There's no point running about telling everyone how good you are if you won't compete againt the best. (and i wasn't refeering to any one team in particular)

there's no point in being in a championship you're not fit for either illdecide.

I spoke about this before the whole system needs changed before it's a complete mess - what teams are looking out of the senior championship?

Dromintee??? 
(and im obviously only joking before anyone has a go... )

Pity to hear so many looking to avoid the challenge of senior football. Not only is it bad for senior football but it tends to ruin the intermediate championship as well. A genuine intermediate championship wouldn't have 2 division 1 teams in the final like we had this year. (And before anyone jumps on me, I thought my own club regraded far too quickly).

I think we should move to a system like Down's where championship is based on league places. Top 16 (or 15 plus intermediate champions) in the SFC with the next 12 in the IFC and the rest in the JFC. Would be a lot fairer I think.

Agree, I was saying that months ago.
