Have to feel sorry for Kilkenny footballers. if there is a promotion from the TM to Senior Championship next season, could there not be a relegation/promotion from the TM to/from the Junior championship. e.g. Kilkenny to go down to Junior and the junior champions to be promoted (a stronger counties B team) to the TM. it would make the Junior championship stronger as well as the TM. This already happens in the womens game and seems to be successful!
