Down Club Hurling & Football

[KeyboardWman]

Are there a few managers who have been told not to come back already this year? Knew O'Neill left the point after the previous management had walked before Christmas. Are there more?

I feel players have too much of a say nowadays with their committees. Although managers taking a lot of money in them wedged brown envelopes all the same and losing games too.

You on the drink?

Big week ahead for fixtures. Carryduff have to go into the lions den and win tomorrow night to prove they have the mettle to win this league. Kilcoo may be short a few but still won't want to lose at home to a team with genuine championship credentials. Bredagh, bryansford and Longstone have been cut adrift at the bottom so all other teams being safe can focus on championship preparations.

[Truth hurts]

The two rounds of premier reserve football is not working.

Staying up is in our own hands, but if other teams play weakened teams there may well be a few odd results to come, we will see. Always thought it would come to the last game of the season for us.

I'd say truth is complaining about fixture fulfilment again

There was always going to be a few teams unable to field when the fixtures were on the weekend of a Friday/Monday senior league double.
I don't think we need to go reinventing the reserve league system on the back of one weekend

[Truth hurts]

What's wrong at Bryansford? One of the great clubs.

There are a few clubs in the same situation. Clubs that were big in terms of numbers and titles. Next season we will have no teams from the area of Mourne in division 1, no teams from Newry, no Downpatrick, Brysnsford - a lot of big clubs outside the top ten.

You would have to wonder how Tyrone clubs play a reserve game at 18.45 on a Friday night and the same two clubs play the senior game at 8pm.

They do that obviously until the daylight prevents it, then it moves to Sunday at 2.15 & 3.45.
All 3 divisions do it also, not only senior. Every team in Tyrone play reserve & senior together for senior, reserve and intermediate

Ballyholland are up

We are staying in Division 1 next year after us winning and Bryansford getting beat.
