Ulster Club SFC 2024

[brokencrossbar1]

All games in Ulster have to be played at a designated county ground so the likes of Dungannon,  irrespective of the convenience, would never be an option. Armagh could have an option if EC agreed,  we played  Scotstown there a few years back in the Ulster Semi. 

Newry the logical option all being equal

Curious why the Eire Og Ulster hurling game was played in Carrickmore and not a designated county ground?

Not a fan of designated county ground, somewhere along the line venue size should come into play, better 5,000 in a 10,000 capacity venue than 5,000 in a 25,000 venue, also spread the love and the windfall to other areas, anyway, nothings for changing

I think it only has to be senior level games. Not sure the rationale but likely to do with H&S and capacity.

It's strange that   rural  club grounds  are deemed adequate to host  group stage  matches in their respective county's championship, yet  bigger grounds in the same county  aren't deemed adequate for  an Ulster game .

At this stage the crowds are bigger, people from all over a county might go along and a few neutrals as well. There is a case though that floodlights are useful in November, it can be dark even in the middle of the day.

I'm almost certain there was a game in Carrickmore a couple of years ago. Like everything else, they can do what they want when it suits them.
