Also credit where it's due, I thought the officiating at the game I watched on Sunday was very good. Allowed an intense, physical contest without letting things get out of control. Well managed

BS I hate the burst your bubble after a tremendous effort against poor moneyglass and possibly straight run to final bar a lack of 2 dangly boys like last year. But Portglenone won't compete with either Creggan nor cargin on the showpiece day but fair play keep the foney dream alive, Mr mcnamee will be in cargin clubhouse or Creggan on 9th of October, sin é

Absolutely spot on Lár na páirce. PG1 came up short last year so I am surprised they even bothered to enter a team this year. How dare anyone aside from Cargin/Creggan aspire to win a Championship!

Possibly not at their best so far, but don't be writing Creggan off just yet. Still a two horse race in my view.

Should we rename this board the PG1 Football Thread? haha

Either rossa or st endas will go out on points difference

Same could possibly happen to randalstown or gort

And say ahoghill managed to beat st brigids could have 3 teams on 2 points

Messy

I certainly wouldn't put it past Ahoghill to get a result against St Brigids. THe Clooney men are always capable of big performances when they have their backs to the wall! 

Corrigan is no easy place to go during Championship and Creggan will be feeling the pressure!

St Galls v Creggan- Creggan by 9
St. Brigid's v Moneyglass- Draw
GNMv TNN- TNN by 6
St Enda's v Rossa- Rossa by 2
LD v St Johns- Draw
Ahoghill v PG1- PG1 by 5

What is it that the police claim happened to Noah?

League means very little is right, PG1 straight run to county final.
will they be fit to beat a big gun in final for 5th time of asking this year, doubtful but a one off game I guess, St Galls to shock a few in group is my prediction.

PG1 undoubtedly the easier side of the draw but this is a team who were beat by Clooney, St Brigid's and Aghagallon last year! Bit early for talk about a county final!

Ahoghill have recently sent representatives to speak to a number of different local clubs to find a home for their underage players (including Moneyglass, Ballymena, Portglenone...).
Unsure what the outcome has been.

MR2 the problem is in recent times the SW have dominated winning the championship and will continue to do so.

Cargin or Creggan are looking a cert to win it again this year and for the next few years! (This is a testament to the work done within these clubs, not the schools).

I will hazard a guess that St Galls will be the next city team to win a championship but they are miles away at present.

At the same time it is fair to ask how the rest of the team sin the SW are going to close the gap on the top two.

Very interested to know what our own development strategy is? What actions are we taking to give us a chance at a competitive senior team in future?

Maybe time to move on all the EMcG discussions. A mix of positives and negatives to take from his tenure but that that ship has now sailed. Maybe it's time to start looking forward instead of backwards

Having experienced working with Conleith Gilligan, he is a very impressive operator.  Without doubt he would add value to any management team in the country.

There's a reason Micky Moran headhunted him as his no. 2 at Kilcoo and they went on to win the club AI.

Paddy Power is giving a generous 9/2 Kickham's for the championship.....may well take a little bit.....

Free money. Something would need to go badly wrong in Staffordstown for Creggan not to win it again his year
