Afraid Reserve team could not field tonight......bad for reigning county minor champs.

I don't have the exact answer but reserve football is dying out. A lot of games conceded as the season goes on. Maybe if teams have a strong enough 2nd strong enter the team in one of the lower divisions. It's then a serious team rather than a gather up which reserve football usually is. I think St Galls have maybe done it this year, we did it the 2000s until they powers that be stopped us entering the intermediate and junior championships.

We done it in hurling and football this year and like yourselves years ago also, there's a target at least of regular games against 'senior' teams as for the championship I still feel you should be entered as it's far more competitive than a reserve championship, and should a second/third win I've no problems with them not participating in the Ulster championship and a team nominated.

We won a junior hurling final years ago with players that wouldn't have been starters or even subs on or senior team, the party was as big as a senior title

An appointment of car crash proportions. no

paddyjohn

Heard Damien Cassidy/McNultys/Joe Cassidy and John McKeever in as a dream team.

bannside

Lol Paddyjohn. Damien committed to Wolfe Tones for 5 years or something, he is only halfway through year one. And JMK going nowhere, he's ok where he is!

Lots of credible names floating around, including a few biggies that haven't been mentioned on here - but this process will only start for real when you see what names the club's put forward before June 10th. Plus, county officers are free to get active too and I would be fairly sure they will be as ambitious as anyone.

As I said before, we won't be stuck.

marty34

Would Mickey Moran even be tempted into managing a county?

Antrim would be handy enough for him, distance wise, in comparsion to the Kilcoo gig.

Have the training in Portglenone.

imtommygunn

I wouldn't be convinced Moran is in great health. He has got very frail. That may be wrong but definitely looking at him for Kilcoo I think age at least is taking it's toll.
