Clubs are NOT ALLOWED to drop down a championship if they feel like lifting an easy championship. The championship your club plays in, is based on the league you play in, or higher If you elect to move up.

Division one teams play Senior (not allowed any lower championship)
Division two play intermediate or Senior Championship (not allowed junior)
Division three play Junior, intermediate or Senior (not allowed to enter junior b)
Division four play junior b, junior, intermediate or senior.

In short, a division four team is allowed to enter the senior championship and there is nothing to stop them. No team is allowed to cherry pick a lower championship as has been suggested on here.

St Pauls have been relegated out of division two and have been struggling this last 3/4 years. From what I hear they are struggling to get a team out on the pitch. They will be playing Junior championship as that is the level they are now playing in the league next season.

It's a fair point bonamargey.
We might think along the lines of "dropping down" but in reality it's a club's actual results that permit them to "drop down" and not our perception of where they traditionally should be.

Better numbers at training tonight.  Panel will be named tomorrow.

A good squad to start off with. Undoubtedly strengthened when the Cushendall and Creggan boys return along with the injured players. Also a refreshing attitude from the management team.

Is there a reason Saul Mc Caughan isn't there?

Working in Omagh and can't travel over in time from what I hear. He's a big loss.

[Jesusjones]

Certainly is. He would be one of the best 6 forwards in the county for sure.

Benny McCarry no interest in playing for the county?

I don't know if he's fit yet or not. I suppose if he gets up to speed and is playing well he'll maybe get a call up. Same as everyone else.

Shorty McManus Eddie

Clarke Watson McAfee

What a set of forwards that would be

I'd say we could be for seeing Watson around midfield,  Conor Johnson and Clarke inside along with another would be nice full forward line.

[Jesusjones]

We need him close enough to the posts to score regularly. Others can do the donkey work.

well three games have been played he's been midfield in the three of them.  Not much to go on I no.  Time will tell. I wonder what dall men will be avalible. With the talk of graffin and Neill traveling.  Massive boots to fill

[hurlingstick]

Hopefully Campbell and McCambridge at least.
