Amazingly sth antrim have accepted that st johns are not fielding in the u16 grading competition. And allow them to enter div 2 when it begins......what a joke.......win at all costs mentality gone wrong...I honestly couldnt believe that ......st johns conceding games
Nothing amazing about it and nothing other clubs haven't done or won't continue to do in lean times. Clubs have a choice in years where they don't have the numbers or strength in depth to sustain a challenge - either amalgamate with other clubs or drop down to the level that suits limited resources, thereby giving their own players and the players of opposing teams meaningful games. Wanting kids to get a bit of enjoyment out of that is certainly not a joke. St John's are exactly the same as any other club in that respect.
