The recent results at Minor or under 20 level are alarming, and yet another wake up call that the gap is widening between the traditionally strongfootball counties and the rest.
As Saffs of 82 says, maybe we are Div 3 across the board, at all levels....in which case we are going to take some hammerings against top Div 1 sides.
We are a fairly prudent bunch here, no one thinks we are able to compete at the top tables. But surely we can aspire to get to the second division across the board and continue organic growth from there.
If all relevant parties (clubs in particular but also schools and co development squads) could find 10% extra from somewhere, and another 10% on top of that the following year, we would be on a much better footing.
That's a lot of buy in required - and some group/body/committee needs to start selling that soon!
Has Gaelfast made no difference then?
You know Antrim has (in football) been rubbish since the 50's?
Will take more than Gaelfast to reverse our fortunes
Would be some turnaround in 4 or 5 years to have us competing with the likes of Tyrone
