Quote from: Hard2Listen2 on November 01, 2023, 08:42:11 PMHearing rumours of a few more managerial movers but not confirmed yet.

Anyone else hear anything?

Truth Hurts you're usually in the know. What's happening?

Sure why don't you tell us the rumours?

Wouldn't be right to put something up until it's confirmed. Could be embarrassing to any individual or club if it's not true.

Now thats embrassing

Would there be many players come down from Newtownards/Bangor/Holywood direction? 

Majority of hurling men I've met from North Down head to Belfast to play their hurling.

It was a good few years ago we'd four or five St Pauls Holywood lads play a bit of hurling at underage for us, one was handy enough and had potential but took off to Cork to a University down there and never appeared back though I think he's playing football for St Pauls again so must have come back up the country

Ah right. Honestly would have assumed most lads coming down from North Down to play hurling  would have went to Ballycran- purely based off of the reasoning they're the first club you hit coming down the Ards.

Geroid Adams to be joined at Clonduff by St John's and Antrim player Patrick Mcbride...

How does a current club and county player have time to manage another club team in a different county?? Baffling!

Let's hope after that today the Dabs playing county rhetoric is finally put to bed.

And in addition to that, hopefully peoples notion of Ryan McEvoy being a top player especially at full back changes.  Never understood this, no good at commanding a square against anyone of similar size. Found out by Murnin, Oneill, Costello and now McCarron & Hughes. Scotstown knew it was a weakness and launched in 4/5 in 2nd half. Nothing about ball gave away at end thats not nice for any player to deal with. Cargin where close to Glen today, scotstown impressed, Trillick defensive strength could take them further. Wide open championship. I apologise to Scotstown I, probably like Kilcoo, was already looking past them

Hard luck to our men today. Wasn't meant to be for us, we didn't play to our usual high standards and made a couple of uncharacteristic errors and mistakes that we'd normally not do or get away with....but will take absolutely nothing away from Scotstown. They were up for it and totally deserving of their win. They are a quality side and although mentioned before by another poster, we were definitely not looking past them as we knew what we were up against. Fair play to them and I'd personally like to see them go on and win it but never know in this competition.

Also congratulations to our neighbours in Liatroim on a good win today, great to see.

I personaly thought Dabs was brilliant today

GAA Madness

One big but fair hit on Eugene Brannigan changed that game today in Scotstowns favour, took Brannigan out of the game and showed they were in a game. After that big personalities pulled them to victory, Hughes, Beggan, McCarron and McCarthy. Kilcoo missed Jerome massively

If you think there is better men playing for down than him then you're having a proper laugh, yea maybe not top level county standard but far better than what we have playing at the moment

Unlike a lot of others on here I wasn't glad to see kilcoo beat, any team representing Down I hope goes on to win, (hopefully Liatroim can do that).

On the match, I thought Kilcoo didn't play near what they can, Scotstown outmuscled them and got on top, Kilcoo just couldn't change the momentum. Scotstown's county men really stood up when it mattered, the last 2 scores were as good as you'll see.
