Was there not uproar on this same forum when this same group underachieved at minor level?
Management was blamed?

Too many steps

That was last year's group - which to be fair to Laverty he won Ulster u20 with.

It is hard to keep tabs on the years with the change in ages and covid.

Next year's u20s definitely not as strong on paper.

Any changes or shake ups at the county convention last night?

Are the clubs in line for a Xmas bonus given JP's latest donation?

Awwww, is the wee snowflake upset? Were we the laughing stock of Ireland when the Kilcoo debacle happened? Yes.

Is that figure correct of €8,065 per club in Down? Seen that figure doing the rounds but thought it's a bit lower than what was to be expected?

Anyone any idea if that's correct and if so how? Would mean there'd be just under 124 clubs in the county???

I believe it's a payment per code.

So my own club are looking at 3 x €8k. Others more, others less.

I do believe the right thing to do here is wipe out the County's loan repayments then divvy the rest up pro rata.

This would cost us all less in the long run.

So if a club plays men and women's football and hurling and Camogie then they stand to get over 32k ? Some boost for a club no matter how big.

What clubs actually field teams in 4 codes at senior level? To my knowledge Bredagh, Castlewellen, Warrenpoint, and East Belfast, and am I right in saying Liatroim have a senior women's football team?

I know plenty of clubs (Carryduff, Clonduff, Ballyvarley/Aghaderg, etc.) have introduced ladies football at some level, but not sure if they field senior teams.

Would agree with Wobbler pay off any debt then split it up. Better done that way than it go to clubs with the management merry go round no doubt asking for more £££ because of JPs donation

skat man

why would clubs pay off the counties debt ? has the county ever paid off a club debt ?

An excellent concept, but many clubs wouldn't see the wider picture
