Considering their record it might not be a bad thing.

Looks like a winning formula  😂

Over the years I have seen supporters of the game, especially the armchair ones, lose interest and I don't blame them. Why would you want to watch the muck being served up? More importantly, why would you want to train six nights a week just to master the art of fist passing within your own half? Down have nothing to prove to anyone but if other lesser counties want to indulge themselves in this then be my guest - I'll stick to the club scene.

Recently watched the 1968 AI final between Down and Kerry.
Funny how memory can decieve you. I thought it was meant to be a classic but when I saw it I was shocked. Catch the ball in the middle of the field and lump it forward into the 14 yard line and hope for the best. That basically was the tactic.
No plan B.

If this team does not improve dramatically it may be easy enough to get out of Division 3 next year. Unfortunately.

The problem is not that we got rid of Tally, we were playing crap football and getting hammered eg Donegal in the championship. The problem is also not wee James, he proved himself a real Down man by taking the gig . The problem is the five months in which the Co Board did not fill the management post and then had to go cap in hand to wee James and beg him to take it.

Consider yourself reprimand Johnysboys. You obviously don't like Kilcoo but get over it, they are All Ireland Champions on merit. We would all like our club to be there but no justification to your pathetic jealousy. Positive posts in future please.

Well Johnnysnoys, after your rant, how many of tonight's team would get on the Kilcoo team?

Why not put all the jealousy aside for the next 10 days and wish Kilcoo good luck. Would it not be a big lift to Down football if there was an All Ireland title in the county?
Whatever you think of them you have to agree they are some outfit and we would all like our club to be in their position.

Do you think for one minute that Kilcoo don't take the league seriously? They blood the young lads in the league and that is why they are in the All Ireland final next week. Other teams need to follow their lead if they want to be successful. I wish my own club would.

Not a young lad but Burren will have john mckernan back this year, devastating injury set him back for a long period. No doubt will be coming back with the fire in the belly ready to perform. Super talent

Heard alot of good things about John McKernan he could be the lad to stop kilcoos run of sucess and bring big frank ohare back to burren.

Must have a backbone then. Unusual.

Good luck to Ballycran and Kilcoo.

Why would you assume I'm a man? Are females not allowed on this site?

Sad day for Down GAA when one team goes out to play football and the other team just want to perform thuggery and are accommodated by the referee and his officials. Did race, and I'm not even from Down.

OMG what vitrol.
