Any new managerial appointments made?

Ha ha ha here we go agin with this crap every manager changeing places with another manger what a  joke

I've seen a coach from tullylish is managing a belfast club in antrim league. Its fascinating to hear of all these down managers in other countys. We must be the biggest exporterin ulster? Exactly how many are outside down? And who? Whats wrong with our leagues that they cant or wont stay?

Hard2listen2 do you have the updated verified list of nanagement teams

are all management teams now in place ?

Dont ask hard2listen2

John Kennedy to Clonduff?

Is this a rumour

#fact

Best stay away from the message boards hard2listen2

byransford gone with an inside man , not sure of the name

Hard2listen2 any rumors about this

I think Down have it spot on with their Championship formats. The only issue would be scheduling and venues. So much more potential to make the championship season good for supporters and watchers

I see Mulholland isn't listed with the CPN management. Could he be returning to the Harps?

Think work commitments was the issue, Gilmore is in with u20s as well so will be getting a good experience

I have heard a lot of clubs are struggling to fill roles for next season.

Who are they

Serious question...

If your club had an open management position, would you touch Poacher with a barge pole?

Football is horrendous to watch, and his side-line antics aren't much better.

Every coach in Down and Ulster are playing this way, name a club in Down that plays attractive football because I can't.

Its not just Steven Paochers fault, the GAA need to change the rules.

Out of curiosity, what teams in senior football would you support or watch most often?
I'm assuming Downpatrick & / or Loughinisland as they are nearest to you if you are in Ballykinlar?

Do they not both play traditional football with no sweeper or mass defence?

Did you watch Loughinisland v Warrenpoint yesterday, 15 men behind the ball for both teams and keep ball, RGU played this way all year as well. McCorry, Gilligan, Mulholland, McBride, its all over Down and throughout Ireland, we were lucky with the penalties in the championship but the spectacles have been poor overall. Mayobridge were always going to struggle without Quinn and against the all Ireland champs it was always going to be like that, when he returns they will be better. Trust me Down seniors will be playing the same way next year so get used to it.

Tell me you don't watch football without telling me you don't watch football.. We've not played with a sweeper all year, only time teams played 15 behind the ball was in extra time in the game yesterday. Dan was up on his on with Rory, Stefan or Oisin rotating in around him in the half forward/full forward area and Decky McClements dropping into midfield.

If it was 15 men behind the ball Point shouldn't have had over 15 wides never mind 15 shots. Again avoids question about his "Club"

You played a static sweeper v Castlewellan in quarter final?

Mayobridge are probably out the guts of 60k with that mgt team to serve up that muck. I'm sure Mickey Linden and Tom O'Hare are delighted!! Ffs have a go at it and if you're beat so be it. Played totally into the hands of Kilcoo and the neutrals were served up a bore.

Imagine having the belief that you could hold onto the ball long enough to keep Kilcoo at bay. Probably the worst attempt by a team to reach a final in any sport that I have ever seen. Dreadful.
