While agreeing that teams should only amalgamate to keep lads playing football  only. If you look at the clubs who join, they are in the lower reaches of their leagues,they are always in very rural area`s. The fact that they may be lucky and win something every now and then,is no reason to deny them the opportunity to do so.How often to clubs in towns amalgamate? They have no reason to do so.

If they join up and win something that's fair enough but I remember the time of the Cil Chluana amalgamation their aim was to win the St Pauls tournament in Belfast!! That was even before they played their first game!!

who told you the aim was to win St Pauls tournament, i played on that team, and i never even heard of the St pauls tournament till a few years after that, when the Harps and ogs i think won it

The St.Pauls /Eire Og amalgamation only lasted 1 year. At that time neither club could field at U16 level.

cill chulana was four teams made up of ballymacnab, clady, granemore and mullabrack, we played them up in lissummon in the quarter-final, they lead for most of the game but the ogs came back, cill chulana actually miss a penalty in the dying minutes, i think the score was 1-5 to 10pts.

Laochra O'neills were made up of Shane O'Neills, Belleeks, O'hanlons and Lissummon i think, they destroyed us in the 1st half of semi final taking a 12pt lead into half time, we came back to draw in the last kick of the game with a monster kick from 50 yards up the hill in clady. The replay was a different affair we blew them away beating them by 12pts in Granemore.

I was on an Ogs team that played cill chulana in the Mick Higgin's final in Abbey Park, remember them having some very good players and they were a v.strong team overall but they still didn't win  :)

Did 1 of them Ogs minor teams not play Laochra O'neills in the county final - the game where Tommy Graham saved a penalty for the Ogs?

That was the U16 Final was it not?
