Was at the first game, Eire Og should won it that day, there were better than Skib, replay was way down the country, There were a great club team to come out of a so called weaker County at the time beating Dublin, and, Meath Champions,

According to Wikipedia, teams from Monaghan, Carlow, Meath, Offaly, Kildare, Sligo , Tyrone, Donegal , Clare , Westmeath, Tipp and Longford have won provincial championships but not the All Ireland.
No club from Cavan, Fermanagh, Kilkenny, Leitrim, London, Louth, Waterford or Wexford has ever won a national or provincial title.

Monaghan, Tyrone,  Cavan and Donegal. Ulster is hard to get out of

Meath and Kildare are in the  shadow of Dublin

Tipp could be the first of this group

Surprised Cavan haven't even got an Ulster. Clonmel looked very impressive the other night

Hard to believe that no Tipp team have won an AI club hurling title since 1987 and them one of the traditional big 3.

There's a far better spread of winners in the hurling due to the more even-ness of resources available to each club.

A bit like Tyrone in the football.

The Mayobridge team of the late 90's early 2000s were unlucky.  They won 7 or 8 Co titles but came up against Crossmaglen in Ulster a few times who went on to win All Irelands.  It was a team full of flair with Linden, Coulter Walsh Sexton & co.  The fact Francie Bellew nearly decapitated Mickey Linden in an Ulster match didn't help their cause!

Francie been fond of the odd late tackle, that was a particular bad one on Linden from Memory.

From memory we only played Mayobridge that one time in the Ulster Final when Benny Coulter left Mickey Linden in the firing line with the worst hospital pass you've ever seen. They flattered to deceive and were probably over egged due to the general weakness of Down club football at the time.

Scotstown of the late 70's and Clan na Gael of the early 70's won 3 Ulster's in a row each but never pushed on to win the AI.

Truth hurts

Mayobridge were an excellent side and their best chance was probably in 2001 when they should have beaten Ballinderry. The forward line was unreal.
Bryansford were so unlucky in the 70s as they got beaten by East Kerry in the 1971 all Ireland final. That would not be allowed now. But they were some side, Big Oliver Burns, Willie Kane , Eugene Grant, they were ahead of their time is Down club football.
