McCorry didn't bring anything to the Burren table this year
In the biggest of big games it was the same old from Burren
Why not try something different
Is that not why these big managers are brought in
Expect Jim McG and Stephen Poacher to be named doll as the Down management as soon as tomorrow if word is right. Fully founded by our sponsors

Personally, Id be worried about the mental state of any man who really wants to win D1 this year.
In fact Id be worried about it most years. League titles dont matter a damn unless theres promotion attached to it. But especially this year, D1 really doesnt matter a damn. Its a high standard of friendly match, nothing else.

Was up watching Kilcoo CPN game last night. Have to say, lots of missed chances from both teams and they'll both probably be happy enough with the result tbf. Kilcoo will have bigger fish to fry than a league game at the start of the year, they haven't traditionally started the league that strongly...they'll hit their stride in about 3/4weeks I'd imagine.
Was very impressed with our lads though tbf, both teams missing a good few players that will make a big impact if fit and available later in the year. Kilcoo being kept to one point in the second half was not like them at all and they badly lost their discipline near the end with one Brannigan being black carded and the other sent off for a kick. Magpies didn't get out of 2nd or 3rd gear but neither did Warrenpoint. Good start to the league for our lads, very tough few fixtures coming up though against Burren, Yellas and Bridge.
Clonduff seem to be flying and Harps ticking along OK too, Rostrevor got a fair pasting last night at home which was surprising, anyone at the game? Also Loughinisland getting it very tight atm, are they missing many men? Know Flynn wrecked himself but surely they should still be competitive enough with the talent at their disposal?
Mayobridge getting pipped by Burren at the death which seems to be an annual occurence now, whether it's a last minute goal or point-they never seem to be able to see it over the line. What was the report from that game?
Could this be the year that Clonduff finally clicks, I always think on paper they have a great squad but always seem to shit the nest at big stages. They are crying out for a good defense and goalie. I am so looking forward to our championships, I think we will be in for a treat and although Kilcoo will be favourites I think there will be 6/7 teams that will fancy their chances on any given day provided they get a favourable run.
Kilcoo, Burren, CPN, Clonduff, Bridge and possibly Ballyholand and Carryduff could win a Down senior football championship this year
