Drumsurn changed management again? senior championship this year too, i think its going to look grim for them the rest of the year

Why are Drumsurn in senior championship? Have we not gone back to 16 Division 1 teams in senior? I have lost track.

This is what the clubs have voted for over the course of the last few years. An influential few wanted the 16-12-9 structure for both league and championship and others fell into line.

I'm not sure it serves anybody except the handful of in senior who can continue living a lie at the bottom end too proud to go to IFC

Eh?? Ballinderry won last years Intermediate Championship and Castledawson are in it this year!

Anybody involved that actually f**king watched Derry club fball and championship past 2/3yrs?

lets go back over the well trodden ground, who's not there that should be?

Big sweeping statements about men who are there and potentially men that are coming in. Plenty game time for reserve and back up players during the league this year and I don't know any who stamped any position down.
I've seen every team in senior league this year and bar Sean Kearney and maybe and its a big maybe Ryan Mc Nicholl theres no new faces banging on Tallys door.

None of the Newbridge lads??!!

But Outside D'Arcy of Galway very few of these kickouts are won clean, it's all mostly break ball. A team can be on top for 50/60mins and still get beat in the last 10mins. Under the old rules that wouldn't happen.

I think that's great and adds to the jeopardy of the thing and before if a team was 6 points up heading to the last 10 mins the game was completely over now you can't leave in case a comeback is on.

Teams are going to have to develop a set play kickout to break momentum. I imagine we'll see more of these next year becuase once you go on a run of losing possession in midfield things can get bad very quickly!

Dick Clerkin was right about this Armagh team.

What did he say about them?

Weakest team to ever win the AI.

They're better than the Tyrone team that won the 2021 All Ireland*

Not sure why Armagh have let Kerry get so many kickouts away.

They've been totally flat and after a decent couple of minutes after half time they've been horrible since!

Farcical end. Took about 40 seconds I think to take that free.

Hooter went after the ball went out. should there not have been a kick out?

If the ball is already out of play following a score, a wide or for a sideline kick when the hooter sounds, the Referee shall signal the end of playing time on the sounding of the hooter.

If you think Jim is a whinging manager, wait till you hear Joyce after this

He'll be another man gone I'd say!

Farcical end. Took about 40 seconds I think to take that free.

Yeah that was a bullshit end to the game

Galway's attacking play has been shocking so far

Jesus this is horrible so far!

Kneecap finally on iPlayer. Didn't think it would happen.

Not a massive fan but it looks like serious craic.

Your sniffer dogs are shite!!

No way that was overcarrying poor call!

Aye, and Donegal through on goal. Poor call.

Dreadful call.

And the Murphy mark called back, shocking rule.

Was his own fault shouldn't have called it!

Monaghan have been outstanding there from front to back.

Wouldn't want to be left one on one with Stevie O'Hanlon!!

Patton has been very poor that half very unlike him. Only for Thompson Monaghan would be out of sight!

No way that was overcarrying poor call!

Donegal definitely a shade off it especially Patton. Monaghan hopefully won't rue all these wides.
