I thought we were moving away from the personal abuse. Disgraceful.

Ps you can't justify your previous comments by tagging a disclaimer sentence at the end.

Was the County Secretary Report / Comments with regards players attitude and commitment justified? Should we not be backing our players to the hilt at least in public and whatever problems need resolved or questions asked be done in private... .distasteful way to question players attitude doing there best irrespective of results.

And this individual has been apparently been given 7 more years as secretary.  Is this renewed by Croke Park or does he have to apply for it.  Good job it's not performance related.

His report covers many areas but there is one really worrying area for me.  It will take until June 2032 repaying at the present rate the Debit to Croke Park when it will have been paid in full, tell me this but what have we got to show for it?  It's not like we have a Centre of Excellence like many counties in Ireland so how have we run up this debt?  And we keep putting these people back in charge.

Supersub wind your neck in, I personally abused no one or can you not read!!! I made two distinct points, one regarding blood testing players and the other regarding a seven year appointment of our county secretary in which I questioned a performance review or the lack of. Before you jump on the bandwagon of tagging every comment people make as personal abuse take a bit of time and read what is in front of you.

No keyboard warrior I was commenting on what was published...when one of your own questions your attitude in print for the everyone to see you have to ask the question why? Is this not the role of the manager and his team to be done behind closed doors if needed? Should the County Secretary be getting involved in team affairs like this in a public way? Why appoint a manager to look after the team at all? Apologizes if I 'haven't a clue' but questioning players in this way is wrong - shows a lack of class.

If a club secretary publicly questioned its senior players committment in their AGM report they would not have a senior team for the incoming year.

i personally thought the report was emotionally driven and personally opinionated and a platform to blame everyone else but themselves.

a rule of thumb - if its not positive keep it to yourself

better to pen a few paragraphs of positivity than pages of drivel . everyone that follows Down GAA dont need a report on what went wrong - better to say how can we get it right

The fuss had all died down about McCorry and the long approach to getting us a Senior Manager and then our Secretary drags it all out into the print media.Very thoughtful and measured lunacy.Actually quite vindictive on the edge of Christmas.

No need to get excited.

I will say this, if someone was publicly inadvertently questioning your job and livelyhood would you like it?
