Quote from: country bumpkin on December 09, 2017, 03:54:03 PMno their social club is and always has been in the lower falls - think they have been let down by Belfast City Council in the past re support for their own pitch but they never gave up - fair playQuote from: Belfast GAA man on December 09, 2017, 03:14:47 PMQuote from: bannside on December 09, 2017, 01:48:43 PMDlelighted to see Davitts get their own home pitch after all these years. They have had to play in Boucher,Falls Park and Twinbrook over the years and keep the club going
Essential that due to the sheer numbers involved, this is prime area for targeting huge growth. Literally hundreds of potential players slipping through the net there. The next generation should see lots of them aspire to wear Saffron.
Great and overdue development but as someone else pointed out there used to be McDermots, Clonard and Dwyers on the Falls Road and none of these clubs field any more
Indeed ur right Belfast man, and glad to learn that I am not approaching senility.....agreeing the Davitt's men did have a home base at Twinbrook at a time.
Is their 'social club' not in the same area?

I see a SW motion to bring minor football back to divisional boards - I see a lot of FTFs in the all county league this year - not a good sign...
The all county leagues at minor are a shambles...has to go back to Div boards
Would prefer to see minor football staying all county. How many teams will feature in SA? Will be the same problem we had this year at U16, not enough teams, not enough games.
Quote from: BrendanAntrim on November 28, 2017, 10:29:48 AMVery good piece but seems that is has taken a challenge to CB positions for us Antrim gaels to get any information on the progress the county is making. The culture of secrecy about finances turns people off and while of course we don't need to know people's salaries etc hearing the broad numbers of our finances is really encouraging to hear - end secrecy now!
Good piece.
Quote from: bannside on November 22, 2017, 07:08:31 PMwhy would it not be in the best interests for the county's finances to be public knowledge? I and many others contribute to county fund raising initiatives and if you don't let people know where their contributions go that's a sure way to put them off contributing .....
No it won't be made public nor would it be in the best interests for it to be public knowledge. Sure it's well known that half the county's in Ireland are in financial difficulty.
But three of your club delegates will be in attendance at agm, and they (rightfully) will be handed the accounts and offered a chance to question them. That's the democratic process which is designed to be fair and accountable in the right places.

Any idea on what motions/proposals there are?
Quote from: country bumpkin on November 08, 2017, 03:51:14 PMwhat trials? Still no word of a minor manager?
Anybody hear how 'trials' went last night.....?
Quote from: paddyjohn on November 03, 2017, 03:12:27 PMCould you outline the great strides you refer to?
I don't believe any of the above. SV are making great strides.
Quote from: Stillwater2 on November 02, 2017, 05:32:53 PMIs a bit of competition not good? This county board isn't pulling up trees....
All is not good. Expect a few contested positions.
