How does o'neill qualify to play for antrim? Is he transferred clubs?
It was reported that he is eligible because he's living in Belfast. No club move as far as I know.

That cannt be right? Surely that's not sufficient to change your county?

Living and working in Belfast apparently. Its obviously allowed otherwise he wouldn't be playing. Dublin teams have had players from all over the country playing for them
None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought. Ea

What are the chance Omagh will be playable on Sun? Any sign of a thaw in the afternoons up there?

I find this one strange considering he is still playing with Omagh.

There hasn't been much of a thaw here the last few days although the forecast says it's going to get milder over ther weekend so game should go ahead.

A few Antrim ladies were playing with Bredagh in Co Down a couple of years ago.  Seems to be permitted alright.

They all played for their 'home' county, whilst playing for different clubs...

Stefan White played in a few different counties to where he lived!

The likes of white and padden change club to be able to play in their adopted county.

Are either of O'Neill's parents from antrim? given the clare example, i think that would allow him to play?

Winnie Peg

All the Culloville and Cullyhanna boys that played for Cross!

i think clare were only allowed to use parentage because they were designated as a 'weak' county, i couldn't see antrim getting away with that now, especially as they are in division 2

DuffleKing


I think a weak county is framed as one which has not won a provincial title in ten years?

That being so, anyone outside of armagh & tyrone could avail of it.

There's no provision for residency to qualify a player for a county transfer?

Can you name any Dublin footballer who came from another county but did not join a Dublin football club?

edit: to clarify football only, as 2 clubs have often been allowed for dual codes
