Mayo club championship draws postponed


Daniel Carey

THE draws for the Mayo Senior, Intermediate and Junior Football Championships, scheduled for tomorrow (Wednesday), have been postponed following last night's meeting of Mayo GAA Board.
The proposed involvement of an amalgamated West Mayo team (involving players from Islandeady, Balla, Parke and Louisburgh) in the Senior Championship, passed at Convention in December, has run into a number of problems.
Since the experiment is to run for one year only, West Mayo are immune from relegation, an anomaly that has thrown up a number of possible legal difficulties. In addition to that, Junior and Senior Championship matches are now due to be played on the same weekend, so the constituent clubs of West Mayo may decide not to take part in the blue riband competition. West Mayo GAA Board Chairman Ollie Dillon is due to meet with the clubs involved next Thursday.
Board Chairman James Waldron said the Board was 'in a no-win situation', and agreed with Seán Mac Éil's observation that it was 'stuck between a rock and a hard place'.

Any word on any new club managers or player transfers?

When are the League fixtures drawn up?

Niall Buckley was some footballer...

He might be more used to it now seen as he playing regularly in the backs for ballymun. Played a lot of underage at midfield and half forward. Great competition for no. 7 jersey with moran, nally, higgins, gardiner, mcloughlin

Enda Varley is another who was reportedly playing really well in the trials but there s no sign of him either?

According to Mayo News he wasnt considered seen as he is apart of the UL sigerson cup team like Barry Moran

New Ballina management team of John Healy with McGarry & cathal Deasy as selectors. I'm very interested to hear what the townies have to say about this one

Any other new club managements in place?? Is Joyce gone from Shrule??

Was it not the Ulster final vs Tyrone in 2005?

I think the picture adourns McKenna's wall in Armagh City.

Half right Joe!

That a picture in Joe McKennas is of the aftermath of his goal, into the Canal End, against Tyrone in the 2005 All Ireland Semi-Final.

A great picture and a great goal!

Does anyone know where i can a picture or clip of this goal and celebration??

Lads, i was chatting to a mate of mine about stevie mcdonnell and we were trying to figure out what year and what team armagh played someone in croker, stevie scored a goal  and turned his back to the crowd pointing at his number 13 on the back of his jersey, just trying to find a clip of it on youtube but cant figure out when it was or who they were playin??

I'd rather to see the Ballyhaunis motion refer to the way it was in the 90s, when the League was important. When relegation from the league meant losing whatever status you were in. If that was the case I'd be all for it.

They were the great days when every league game meant a great deal. There was some great tussle when the league status determined your c\ship status. If you ask me the standard of club football has dropped because the league has nearly become meaningless.

Not alone do we not look fit, but physically we dont even look as big as teams like Meath and Galway. Something has to be wrong.

And another thing, one time ago county training in Mayo had the reputation of being hell. Stories of Maughan putting guys through their paces in Beltra and hard running in the training ground were in abundance.

Now; you never hear of how hard county training is. It would make you wonder.

Its all about sports scienec now and yoga, pilates, gym work. Not many teams go to training and do 30laps bar Micko with wicklow

Jim Kieltys interview on the radio in the build up to the Meath game was annoying and we didnt need to hear it, coming on radio and saying that this "mayo team was the fittest football team he ever saw", thats not the kind of thing you should be saying in the week of a big all ireland q\final, is he back with them this year???

All Ireland Final Club Final 2003 Cross v Nemo, McD was class, he roasted Martin Cronin in the 1st half, where could someone get a copy of that game???

Well Feeney is at most games alrite andhe is at the gate collecting money at most the games.

One thing, people were being charged 10 quid into the recent Senior C\ship Relagation games, i think 10 euro is very steep and only hurting the actual die hards that turn up at this time of year in brutal weather to watch there club play. Whats more the game between Moy Davitts & Burrishoole went on for 3 games and it was 10 quid each game.
