[Knock Yer Mucker In]

It is all but agreed two rounds of championship before the Armagh game , just waiting for final acceptance from Mickey on all the dates.

He's not talking complete rubbish, but he's certainly in a position where he is getting info. At the CB meeting on Tuesday night I believe the CCC tried to run through the first round of the championship for the beginning of May, they seemingly thought it was just a matter of driving it through, but the clubs stood up to it, arguing the position that we all on this board have pointed out. So they now have to go back and come up with another suggestion, in other words back to Mickey. Some joke. Its simple, same format as last year, with championship starting in August, same as all the other counties.

That nearly worked. Cut out the delays for replays. If replays were played within 7 days of the original fixture we would have been a bit smoother.

By the way, with the entrance prices, does anyone still try to go to all 8 first round matches? I used to but I would pick and choose now. I don't think there is the need to spread the first round games out as much and all 8 could be played on one weekend.

Couldnt agree more Leo!
I used to go to as many of the championship games as i could get to, as well as a couple of intermediate c'ship games, but with the price of the them these days its just not an option. Thats why i think its odd that they stretch the 1st round games as well as the replays out as much as they do, because few people going to watch them all. Most tending to stick to watching their own clubs, and little more.

[tyronehead]

I'll make you sweat a bit more needless to say I will have news very soon and championship timing will not be the same as last year.
