Agree 100% True Blue

What happened tonight?

There are umpteen problems with Down football at present. So many I can't count.

But the one that annoys me the most is when people create drama and angst from the mythical line that separates east and south.

the great wall near Kilcoo

A brave wall it is til 😉

Wee question for some of the guys here... Where would be the best place to buy good base layers for running in the cold nights and mornings. Any websites that you'd recommend that have quality products. Cheers in advance.

Heard a rumour this morning that McCorry is to be announced as the next Burren manager. Anyone else hear this or can anyone confirm?

What went on in the Castlewellan v Ballyholland game? Did supporters from both clubs enter the pitch during the row? Was anyone sent off during this from either side?

Very proud Magpie today! Hopefully we can give Ulster a brave rattle now with Clontibret our next opponents.

Haven't heard anything more on the injury sustained by the Burren minor but do hope he makes a full and speedy recovery.

[On the current management issue, Copeland as trainer would concern me, has this been confirmed or just hear say? What is Copeland's history in men's football? If Mc Corry was going to take anyone from Kilcoo surely it would have been Paddy Murray or Johnston, not the man who carries the water for them.]

Danny Hughes didn't hold back in his column in today's Irish News, pretty scathing of the county board.

Not the first time he has had a pop at his own county, distasteful, tacky and very disappointing from Danny, considering he was just a very ordinary player with bad habits in his game who Mc Cartan managed to get the best out off in 2010.

I have a feeling the backroom team will be announced immediately after the league and championship finals this weekend, it has to be, because open trials for the senior team start next wednesday night.

It hasn't been confirmed but it is speculated that Mark will be on McCorry's team. I wouldn't be too sure of his history but he has been involved with a few successful teams with Newry tech.

I think it's a bit disrespectful that you're stating that all Mark does is carry water to the players! He's an excellent trainer and has been one of the main reasons that Kilcoo have been flying fit! There's more to the man than carrying water

This thread makes me cringe 

Any thoughts on this surly this shud NOT be allowed

The 3 brannigans are  first cousins of Cairan Brannagand
Also the the kilcoo secretary O Hanlon works for Brannagan and also does umpire for him at county matches

I have a few thoughts on this bridge fan.

First point, the three Branagans may be related to Ciaran Branagan, but are you telling us all here that due to the parochial nature of the GAA, there are not other cases of referees being in charge of games in which they have relations playing in? If the referee and relations were members of the same club then there would be an issue here, however, Ciaran Branagan isn't a member of the Kilcoo club and showed no bias towards any Kilcoo player for the duration of the game. He has been in charge of a few Kilcoo games this year and again, being a top inter county referee showed no bias towards any Kilcoo player. This should not be an issue at all here, and I am sure most people will agree that Ciaran Branagan shows no bias towards anyone he referees, be it Kilcoo or any other team in the county or outside. Petty argument, graciously accept your defeat like the majority of 'Bridge supporters and look at the positives of what an intense and exciting game that was on show last night!

Also on your point about O'Hanlon, he's not Kilcoo secretary. So I'd advise that before you come on here and spout out such a heap of nonsense, to go and get your facts right and then you can be taken seriously. Keyboard warrior clutching at straws, grow up!

Dundee just announced as first Yes win for Yes campaign, but I don't think it was a big enough win with 57%

Agreed Eamonnca1, the Yes campaign need a large majority win in Glasgow and it does not look likely having seen the Inverclyde results. Glasgow however, has had the lowest turn out from the 32 councils with 75%, but being the largest populated area only time will tell.

It probably has already been asked and answered on here but ifthe result is a no result, when would be the next time an independence referendum could possibly take place?

Guessing that the BBC wish they hadn't approached this guy for an interview regarding the upcoming Scottish Referendum.
