Yeah think he's bang on tbh. Wouldn't begrudge him it - hope he's the better player for it and kicks on.

Also must be said that if this is a reflection of where Derry are then questions need to be asked.

Same rumour every pre season. As far as ive been made aware Niall has made it clear while he's competitive nothing changes, sarsfields man playing for sarsfields. As time moves on and standards drop he might re-evaluate

Its pretty rife down south. Can't see us ever benefitting from it!

This was all discussed a few pages back, including Christy's eligibility to Derry through his mother.

And yes, Sean Duffin played for Tyrone last year but is away to Australia this year.

You don't need to be "eligible" through a family member, counties outside of Liam MacCarthy & Div 1 in the National League can have up to three in any year & they remain with their original club outside the county they play for.
