I meant what have Kilcoo previously done?

As a Kilcoo person I am very disappointed with what has happened. What was the biggest day in the history of our club will now be remembered for all the wrong reasons.

First of all, I am totally 100% against racism. I am not going to comment on the matter as the full details of what was allegedly said have not yet been released. I am in no way 'brushing it under the table' by saying this, I just feel we will know more in the coming days. I would just like to ask one question, I was in the stand but didn't hear any comments from supporters, I'm not saying it didn't happen but if it did how are people so sure it was Kilcoo supporters, were these people dressed in Kilcoo club gear?
Regarding a previous posters comment, our club have released a statement which includes "We as a club condemn abuse from whatever quarter and shall co-operate fully with any investigation instigated by Ulster Council."

I am actually quite shocked and saddened to see so many people slating our club and supporters on here and on other social networking sites. This isn't in anyway a true reflection of our club or supporters.

Mark Sidebottom was asked that question by a black listener from Kilcoo and confirmed that the abusers were wearing Kilcoo gear.

Thanks Applesisapples. I hope that this just doesn't leave a stereotype on our club after what a small minority can do.

Apart from falling at the final hurdles again. Down football is being dragged through the gutter. Kilcoo always take low to a new level and this gutter behaviour has been prevalent in their history

Do explain please Downjim

She is a very brave woman but what a gruesome way to go!

If any of you are thinking of buying from abroad Canada is the cheapest place to buy from!

Pity, was always a great place to meet old friends that I havent seen in a while! Mind getting a few last minute tickets there also!

Intermediate and Senior games are both being held in Athletic Grounds on December 2nd

UTM

It is a total joke and it definitely seems to be getting worse!

Yesterdays results were brilliant for both Kilcoo and Warrenpoint! I was pleased to see the Kilcoo supporters get behind Warrenpoint and support the Warrenpoint team and likewise to the Warrenpoint supporters who supported our lads. Great great stuff

Has anyone ever took part in the tough mudder endurance runs? Looks a wild tough session!

This exact version is the best I believe, could listen to it all day

[Is Big Eoiney McEvoy still about the place? He'd have followed the hurling a good bit.]

Some result for Kilcoo. For non-Down people, Kilcoo isn't even a cross-roads; it is a church, shop, 2 pubs at either end and a football club. What a club. No hurling, no rugby and definitely no soccer. To get to an Ulster final is some achievement; I suppose the Loup would be a fair comparison- Kilcoo do field 3 senior teams and I reckon there would be very few men between 18 and 40 who haven't played for the club at some stage. Their underage commitment in Down has been the stuff of legend for the last 10 years. Cross are likely to be too strong but the Magpies don't do fear. Fair play to Mc Corry - no time for him but would love to see them do it.

Good result for Kilcoo

I played my first ever adult hurling game in Kilcoo as a 15 year old, changing in the back of a container which doubled up as their changing rooms, must have been mid 80's, they haven't hurled in years, but I think they do field in the camogie now.

Johnnycool regarding your last question about big Eoiney, he was at the game yesterday and all! An avid Magpies supporter and yes he still follows the hurling with a great interest
