Tyrone Club Football and Hurling

[on the sideline]

Paul Rouse at Sean McCumhaills Ballybofey.
Jeez how much must he be on to travel up there?!

Is Thornton living near Letterkenny? Or else that's some trek there as well!

Another one away to Donegal - Terry McCann to Bundoran.
Genuinely would love to know how much these men are on to travel those distances for a year!

What's up with these east Tyrone clubs not providing refs?

Sure what would possess a man to be a ref these days with the shite they have to listen to and the 49 new rules from when they played the game

A nice wee cheque for 5/6/7/8 grand a week before Xmas.

Surely you would have to do a serious amount of games for that kind of money?

Seen our seniors training last night. Had to rub my eyes and check I wasn't dreaming. Footballs were in sight and were being used. But holy ghost, its the 7th January?? Any need to be back on a pitch at this time? Any other clubs back on pitch?

Doesn't be long adding up, you could maybe do 2 youth games a day then a Senior the following. Not many refs as you say.

Must get the whistle back out.. whats the going rate these days per game

No idea, think I heard once 25 junior / 35 adult. Someone more knowledgeable would be able to tell us.

There is a reason Martin Sludden and Martin Hurson etc take  u16 and u18 games.

Was hearing Cookstown only took a week break after being relegated and have been training since the start of December. They will be on top shape for the coming season, and I back them to go up

I think it could be Sean Hurson you are refering to

They probably only started training the week before they were relegated

So if you give up Wednesday night, and your entire weekend for 26 weeks of the year you could get £2900.

I'll Pass, Thanks

Completely agree, however I fail to see how to make it more appealing to people unless we offer them £45 at least for a game. Will cost the average club an extra £150/year for adult games and an extra £600 for youth games (assuming home team pays, and 12 games per year at each under age level)

Not sure if he would agree with this statement himself albeit his home address probably.. I think the ties may have been cut hence the Loughmacrory role - following the brother
