On top of Steelstown, Na Magha and Doire Colmcille there is Sean Dolans, Ardmore, and I think Ogra Colmcille are in the city too.

Ogra Colmcille is Drummullan (formerly Littlebridge). I think Ardmore is just outside Derry City.

What about Coagh? Fr Rocks (Cookstown), Ballinderry, Ogra Colmcille or Moneymore??

Didn't Littlebridge amalgamate with a team from Tyrone to form Orga Colmcille? There can't be many occasions when teams from different counties amalgamate. Can some historian from Tyrone/Derry enlighten me?

Windmill abu

Ogra Colmcille are Littlebridge. The Team from Tyrone you are looking for are Windmill St Patricks and We will be back
Never underestimate the power of complaining

Ballygawley!! I guess they would go to Kileshill or clogher or Errigal ?? :D :P

And did Windmill amalgamate with Littlebridge? Is it not unusual to have clubs from different counties joining up? Are there many from the old Windmill club area involved with Orga Columcille?

Newtownabbey w/o a GAA club?? St Enda's have only been there 51 years methinks.

Drum (Co. Monaghan) doesnt have a club, for much the same reason as the villages further North

The miltitude of gaels in dervock could join the recently founded Ballymoney GFC or if they fancied hurling the mighty glen rovers armoy would be there local club. One of our ex players now lives there, he got a heavy knock on the head as a minor and has never been right in the head since!!!

Ditto for Mosside as for Dervock,( missed them first time i checked the list). We have had one or two guys from out near mosside but as far as I know that would still be in armoy parish.

Drums a black hole!

No teams in Sion Mills, Victoria Bridge, Artigarvin, Leckpatrick, Ardstraw or Bready all around Strabane.

On a "slight" tangent, we have a town in Dublin with a population over 100,000 and no GAA club......Dún Laoghaire.

Can anyone beat that?????

armaghniac

Dún Laoghaire proper doesn't have a population anywhere near 100,000 and if you define it more broadly there are clubs like Cuala in the area.

Derry
Ballyronan          The loup and Ballinderry dispute here, although more would play for Loup
Tobermore         Toss up between Screen Glen and Desertmartin depending where you live
Draperstown      nothing here ;)
Portrush            Although in Antrim Eoghan Rua would facilitate
Portstewart       Ditto above, for by the Antrim bit
Maghera            [spit] Glen [wankers]
Moneymore       The Great Henry Joy McCrackens. Once famous for their pitch where the keeper kicked 'er out, and the midfielders cut it at their ankles


slow corner back

No team in bushmills, Coleraine/ Ballymoney probably closest. Also no team in Rathlin, difficult getting to and from matches,lol
