The round robins and tiers have completely diluted the significance of the competitions. Added to this is the fact they added this format against the request of counties and the Ulster council. No speeches or interviews further adds to the idea that the GAA are trying to take the competitiveness out of the Minor grade.
Seriously... club minor season is a shams, away behind, U16s has been delayed by a few months already ...
Do Tyrone need to be in a tier2 competition?
Tyrone minors have played I believe 9 games this season and lost 4 of them and deservedly exited the Ulster Championship at the Semi Final stage against Derry. Should be season over and plenty to mull on for the team and players going forward into Under 20 age group. But instead of being finally able to rejoin up with their clubs and play the remaining league games, they are off to play a Tier B competition no one wants to be in that could potentially run for another 3 weeks.
At club level the minor season has been shambolic. CCC telling clubs players are available to clubs and then the county management telling players to not play and then some players playing and others not playing. Ridiculous.
If the GAA are going to insist on continuing down this route of Round Robin and tiers then Club Minor season should not start until late June and conclude prior to the Senior Club Championships starting.
A modified calendar along the lines of:
U12 - April - June
U14 - July - October (finish before school football begins)
U16 - March - June (starting after the conclusion of school football which is generally St Patrick's Day and the traditional club start anyway - County Minors available to all clubs as was supposed to be the case this year but enforced by CCC - problem would be lessened as less players affected)
U18 - Late June - September (beginning after County Minor season and exams and concluded prior to Senior championships)
Reserve (with anyone Over 16 eligible - giving those lads football through Spring) - April - August
Senior (Over 17 only eligible) - May - October
Why should club fixtures be based around school fixtures?
These players are club players first off.
Are you saying U12's finisb in June?
Is it not a bit mad U12's stop playing in June, tbe start of the summer and have no action for nearly 4 months of the year?
Just like when U16 finishes they join up with either U14 or Minor depending on their age.
This would make far too much sense for our CCC to go along with it.
Minor was in the second half of the year last season, u16 first. Clubs overwhelmingly asked for it to be changed back.
In that schedule you'd have 17 yo lads waiting until late June for games. 13/14 yo's waiting til July for football. That's crazy
Quote from: marty34 on May 31, 2024, 06:20:10 PMU14 leagues are virtually wrapped up. Championship will be wrapped up by the end of June. A lot of those players will have no action until u16's start next July.Quote from: LeoMc on May 31, 2024, 06:00:38 PMQuote from: marty34 on May 31, 2024, 05:49:52 PMIt is either u12 and u16 finish end of June or u14 and u18 finish end of June as was the plan this year.Quote from: Bring back club football on May 31, 2024, 05:04:44 PMQuote from: Goals_Will_Come on May 31, 2024, 11:30:45 AMQuote from: Goals_Will_Come on May 31, 2024, 11:23:46 AMWhat I would like to see at club level would be -Quote from: Onthe40 on May 31, 2024, 11:03:34 AMThis tier 2 & 3 minor championship is some BS.... minors have played what 9-10 games already and now going into a b competition after being comprehensively beaten by Derry in the Ulster championshipWhat the GAA have done at national level to the Minor and U20 grades is a joke.

The poor club player is getting shafted all the timeOnly division 1 or division 2 also?
Complaints coming in about Eglish and Donaghmore being starred fixtures despite them having no county men anymore as McGleenan, Cush and Quinn have left the panel. Killyclogher also might become an issue if some of their U20s are called up after Sunday's final.

March of hate?!! Aaah. Boo hoo. Sadly for you, the majority of people in this country don't want open borders.
More nonsense.I mentioned on here the other day, a comment from Christy Moore about the Irish right wing, afraid of nothing except using their own names.

Some of those goals would be chances that some would take points from, so good we've goals in us anyway.Quote from: Dreadnought on April 19, 2024, 08:39:57 AMQuote from: SouthOfThe Bann on April 18, 2024, 10:23:27 PMCavan team named.Yeah only the 3-4 scored from open play last day out. Quite the struggle
No Killian Clarke, McLoughlin or McVeety in starting 15.
Would love to see Cavan win this but unfortunately I think Tyrone will win this by 8-10 points. Cavan struggle to score from open play and will struggle to keep all the Tyrone fires out.
Ie. Canavan, McCurry, McShane if he back on form.
4 points from play is not a great return haha.
3 goals from play however is very good, but the worrying thing is its not a common theme for Cavan to score goals but hopefully that's changing.
How many goals did they score in the league altogether 3 or 4?
Garavn Jones scored more from play in the Fermanagh game v Cavan that any Cavan player scored from pay in all 7 gmaes combined.
So there's definitely an issue with scoring from play for Cavan. But its championship now and trends can go out the window.
Wouldn't be too concerned with that Fermanagh League game. We were clearly holding our water for 2 weeks after. They were playing for their lives and we had nothing to play for that day
I agree on the goals very encouraging to see themgo for the juggler instead of fisting over the bar. True on the Fermanagh game aswell but these are just observations I've made i'm not criticizing as it was a great performance the last day despite this; bit of a step up again this weekend but you don't know what your gonna get with Tyrone.

He could add real solidity there potentially if he is back to himself.
Really don't see how Matty starts at 6 unless as a sweeper and someone else picks up the marking job on a Cavan forward
I struggle to see how Matty starts at all to be honest having missed so much of the league
McKiernan has nailed 6 and will surely start there, its a dummy team, expect Aidan Clarke to start corner back
My prediction is Matty doesn't start and comes in off the bench for the second half or last 20mins depending on how its going, deployment also as required, could be middle third could be FF
I wish they would bring in a rule to stop teams announcing dummy teams. Should be a rule to only allow minimum changes. e.g. 2
Or what about just naming them the hour before throw in? Only reason they are done during the week is for the programmes.
