[I will voice my opnion, I am a member of one of downs biggest clubs and yes my opinion is representative of 2/3 of our club members]

5 sams = i must ve hit a nerve!! you must part of that backroom team ................tell me your not one of the bandwagon that finds any excuse to sit with the subs on match day so you can be seen, someone who goes for the big feeds at county board expense after games!!

carr and kane may put in alot of hours, but they get well paid for it let me tell you!! and for the record their only concern is the ME. MYSELF and I..that is FACT!!

lets face it, they can make all the excuses they want, but neither has the ability to turn Downs fortunes around- until the management consists of unbiased, honest people who are tactically aware - we are going nowhere!!

Did you have an EGM to gauge opinion of the membership of one of Down's largest Club? .

I don't think so.

Down won 0-13 to 0-08.
 

Would there be any appetite for a greater belfast league?
The Down clubs could still play in the Down championship.
It might seem more relevant to people in Bredagh to be playing Belfast teams rather than Newry ones.

I think there would be some merit in this but in Down it is league position that determines which C Ship a club plays in. i.e SFC is the 1st division of the previous year as well as the top 4 Div 2 teams (+ possibly IFC winners). if teams did not play in Down leagues then you would need some measure as to which C Ship they would play in.
Something worth exploring all the same

  My point would be to leave Adult Football/Hurling in the respective Counties and only have the Belfast Board for up to U-16 or Minor.

  Condolescenes to Ardglass GAC and the family of Marty Ross who passed away today.May he rest in Peace!

[Factually incorrect and quite rude and offensive-No 1.]

  Go to St Brigid's.  They have their own pitch, Bredagh rely on Belfast City Council to put them up at the horrible Cherryvale.

  Brigid's are more like the traditional club with local players.  Bredagh have no locals (they all play soccer for Rosario) and their members are blow ins from all around the globe.

  The Parador is a dive.

  Bredagh have already gone over the quota for overweight Tyrone men in the one club.

  Joe Brolly seems like good craic, and if you don't think so you'd get a chance to empty him at Brigids training.

Factually incorrect and quite rude and offensive-No 1.

 Carryduff v Bredagh NOW CANCELLED .

 No Derry addition but Mark Sidebottom is joint MC. Throw-in 8.15pm

 Two more additions for the event will be announced on Monday after they receive permission from their better halves over the weekend

 So if you're only going to pay a quarter of the admission price,we'll only put a quarter
of the ticket into the Draw and that piece will be the bit with no name on it.Fair enough?
