Hope you are right... must win to stay in division 3 IMO.
Talking to a guy who hopes to start, they seem in the right frame of mind. Good indication for me

Definite signs of improvement after a tough mckenna cup campaign. Think he's getting closer to finding out best 15. Realistically main goal for the year would probably be staying in division three and the rest a bonus so would be better getting the best 15 asap.

Seems like a new crowd are in calling the shots and going against original St. Enda's men. Never going to end well in that scenario!

What's the closest club to St. Enda's? All joking aside would there be room for another club that direction? There's too many clubs around the West and teams struggling to field at underage including a number of the bigger clubs.

Could a new club be formed in Mallusk? Or is that too close to St. Enda's?

Sure they could set up a new GAA club in Templepatrick or Ballyclare for them ;-)

Busy men..

Two crackers Paddy and John. Honestly believe County should be subsidising this operation, making sure it's fully sustainable.

I recall being part of a think tank around Club Aontroma back in the day and a whole meeting was taken up by talking about the essential priority of our games being properly marketed, especially to the juveniles. Now there's match reports and photos galore, and I can't help think how much we all take SG for granted!

Sterling work by them, and they report the games as they are, very professional and well respected.

Just curious but if people were leaving St. Enda's I would imagine they would joining the club closest to them.  What is the nearest club, plenty come to mind re W. Belfast but can not think of any in N.Belfast.

In North Belfast, noT the SW  ;)

Wolf Tones Have reformed
Ardoyne Kichams
Padraig Pearses

Can't see the club splitting and don't think going to other clubs around there will actually improve players too much as the other clubs are in lower leagues , so they may go to clubs in the West, hoping that they sort this out as the club is (from a numbers point of view) thriving, considering that area was pretty much a unionist area at a time

Posted earlier  LC

Not everyone stays living locally in Belfast or outskirts of Belfast.. So they effectively could pick any club

The Cargin men on here can neither confirm or deny if an approach has been made to their club by the St Enda's lads  :-X
