Would this list of Down senior football club managers for 2024 above be correct??

Liatroim is Peter McDonnell

Great to see the Castlewellan flags proudly flying in Kilcoo.

Nice touch prior to the town's return to Division 1 football.

Great to see Kilcoo showing support for their neighbours.

#UTT

Actually flags for St Malachys Castlewellan who if you didn't know are in the All Ireland Schools Final on Saturday in Carlow.

2 Kilcoo stories this week, 2 standard acts from that shower.

1) Brannagan biting a burren player in reserve game
2) Demanding that CB remove P.F as referee on Sunday

On what basis are they demanding the change of referee? They have some arrogance to even suggest it.

Burren were just as bad with some of the antics they were up to
Also if you knew exactly what the whole truth around Faloon then they have every right to object to his appointment.

Great performance and great crowd, good to see the magpie faithful back in Newry but can they wear Down gear instead of Kilcoo gear please.

Only when the dinosaurs at the top table of the county board disappear.

I was talking to someone who attended the Under 14 Girls County Finals on Saturday in Hilltown
Apparently the referee had to be locked in his dressing room for at least 30 mins after the game
Any truth in this story?

Camogie?

Going by the website there was two lgfa finals, a u14 div E Tullyish hammered Drumgath

The u14 b final st Johns beat Bosco by two points

Both officals were from the Kilcoo club

it was after the B final, disgraceful treatment of the referee. The person involved would be well enough known in the county and should be banned from mentoring any team again

A quick nosey on facebook would tell you that the only male mentor for Newry Bosco is a referee himself?

which makes what happened even worse

Someone told me that the male mentor from Bosco is an Ulster Referee so you would think he should know better given the campaign recently about respecting referees.

Any truth in this story?

Lgfa in Down has a spring league then a summer league and then the championship in September or October. Although I  imagine the late championship helps with pitch availability

Yeah for underage only but apparently their fixtures secretary is a balloon. Any truth?

Wee James, Aidan O'Rourke, Mickey Walsh, Mark Doran, and Jerome Johnston are to be unveiled this week, this was confirmed by a high-ranking former East Down board member in Bizzy bee bistro over lunch today. He also said a few clubs are struggling to get management teams in place, Carryduff and Bryansford being the most high profile.

They have turned it down. The county board also called Paddy O Rourke to take it for one year and he rejected it as well.
