There have been 8 TC finalists with 4 of them having around 20 Senior AIs between them.
What about the Carlows, Longford, Fermanaghs etc getting a day out at a National Championship Final?

Fermanagh were getting it in the neck when I entered the discussion. They should like the competition and that's that....according to some Gaaboarders.Quote from: Milltown Row2 on June 22, 2025, 11:05:42 PMDown or the rest of the teams were never out of the Sam Maguire? Had that changed? Am I missing something?
Ah just some Gaaboarders who love a good rant especially a negative one and get a dig at the GAA powers that be as well.
I wouldn't say that. But if getting to a quarter final of the All Ireland or an Ulster Final once every ten years is your aim then that is pretty grim tbh. Look at Westmeath the year they won the Talteann. Fully bought in and a big party in Mullingar to bring the trophy home. They aren't used to much success but enjoyed themselves.
And yet here are Fermanagh, who have never won a League title, never won an Ulster Championship nor an All Ireland and they are turning their nose up. It doesn't make any sense to me, plus the fact if Fermanagh were to make an Ulster final they would have been in the Sam Maguire. If you were so desperate to be in Sam it would be even more important to win the Talteann. Automatic entry next year. But hey ho.

In an All Ireland series or getting a pat on the head from all the big teams while everybody tunes into Down v Galway.
Imagine comparing the last 8 of the Sam Maguire to a b competition.
As for the it's up to a county rubbish lol.
Never heard a worse argument .
As I said Fermanagh made All Ireland semi finals and quarter finals while there were a division 3 team. No better way to develop a county unless they win a B competition.
That was 20 years ago. The game has changed immeasurably since then. Fermanagh have never won a National title and made the semi-finals once in the Sam Maguire? And here you are disrespecting the Talteann Cup, a cup Fermanagh are in with a chance of winning.
The alternative would be that Fermanagh would have been out of the Sam Maguire and sitting at home now. Instead its semi-final of a decent competition at Croke Park. But hey you can't please everyone I suppose.

They'll fully believe they can win division 3 next year and next step would be making an Ulster final.
This competition is a dead duck.
It's not been promoted.
Little to no media coverage.
It's up against knockout games in the big boys championship .
And you just have to look at the reward Down get for their good run in this year's main competition
An all expenses paid trip back to the Tailtean unless you win Sam this year or make an Ulster final next year
Quote from: SLIGONIAN on June 02, 2025, 05:31:49 PMI look at Longford the last few years and just wonder what is going? Shamrock shore, ye have had some decent underage teams but seniors seem to be underperforming? curious as to why. Some show by Carey 0-15.
Bambrick 2-4 v Fermanagh, no score yesterday? Strange.
We are decent but defensively inconsistent. Carlow will cause us issues but we have the firepower to win this one.

Use to be minors that did that .
Replaced the minors with county teams .
Genius ........
You were saying the Tailtean Cup teams were getting no Profile. Can't win
