The point being made here is Burren as a club don't view League success as a priority and championship is all that matters .Playing League in November really doesn't matter and championship in last 2 years has been missed but this year in reality was a very unlucky one stole by Kilcoo in last few minutes.
Tradition in Burren means championship loss = failure and league doesn't matter.Other clubs need League success to help create that tradition that is my point.

Match tonight waste of time ,Burren don't really do Leagues and the body language of the players said that.As much as I hate to compliment Kilcoo they moved the ball well and Jerome Johnston hit a fantastic goal.
Playing League Football at end of November really isn't The Buren Way -that was obvious tonight.
One team happy to play for Leagues against a team really only interested in Championships , waste of time play the League as a League top team wins it .
Kilcoo v Castlewellan will be a typical ill tempered nasty East Down game ,I hope The CCC videos it with at least 5 camera angles .

[Kilcoo got a lucky title this year]

CPN deserved the win yesterday , Burren didn't show up , complacency and posssibly a few eyes were on Ulster and who they would get back for that campaign .But Burren with the history it has will progress on , 2013 was a funny year for Burren -championship was won with 1 minute to go and Kilcoo got a few flukey scores at the end and Kevin McKernan not being 100 percent . 2014 I wouldn't back against Burren .Kilcoo got a lucky title this year but with the talent coming through Burren are by the far the strongest squad in the county and with a big number on the county panel these lads will progress even more.

Catch a grip. It was far from lucky, Burren never did enough in the county final to pull away, it was always tight. They were beaten by Bryansford and Kilcoo in the championship this year, they (Burren) are hardly world beaters.

Suppose they were lucky to beat Cross too over two games complete with extra time on both occasions?


Also I see you posted this in another thread before the U20 final:
"Burren look like strong favourites given their championship pedigree,CPN just might be a year or two  too soon.Donnach McAleenan and Ryan Magee still young though great talents and a steady keeper with McCartan in the middle but I think the match up between Magee and Shay McArdle could be interesting but Burren to shade it.Gerard McGovern developing into a serious player ,this Burren team will not be beaten."

Doing an awful lot of trumpet blowing for a club that won very little this year.

Supersub I am not sure what club you are actually from but you most definitely are a soccer man so I'll take no lectures from you.

Fairplay to CPN  .I couldn't see past Burren but in the end after senior defeat Burren really didn't care too much about this competition .CPN needed this victory more than Burren and hopefully they can go represent us well in Ulster. Why  has Down under 20 when all other championships in Ulster that qualify for Creggan are u21 ?Insane as far as anyone could see ,who made this decision ? Joke.

Any new additions to the panel ?

Crazy League is a secondary competition .Leagues for playing in and Championships for winning.
Start the League earlier in the year and play top 4 at end of year to get League Winners .Nonsense talk on here such and such finished 5th , 6th etc who really gives a damn about League Football ,Championship is the yardstick of a club.

As far as I know he will be with Annaclone (does it really matter?) ,although really we should lay off the guy he just wants to coach and keeps on trying although  'Bridge didn't keep him not so sure about the other clubs but he is  a nice guy.No need to be bringing his name up here all the time.

Yes Stevie confirmed with Annaclone.Regards minors word is Selection Committee meeting 3 different parties one involving  Ex Co Managers ,one involving All Star forward and the other involving Shane.
