Down Club Hurling & Football

[stpauls]

Fingers crossed, would be happy with a draw but more so if we were to get the two points. We have to win all the rest of our home games if we are to stand any chance of staying up!

[uselessfootballer]

Oh come on St Paul's, can't be saying that you would be happy with a draw from a home game when we're sitting with 4 points at this stage of the season. That attitude doesn't tally with the fierce you're not getting past me, haircut

[stpauls]

not really, but it is better than nothing. after friday night, i have doubts about some people's reserve for the fight we now have on our hands. some of our guys can play a lot better than they did, including myself!!

DRUMGATH 1-10     BOSCO 1-10


Awful game of football, Drumgath stealing a draw with a very late goal.

Torgael what has happened to drumgath? they're dropping a lot of points!!!

[6th sam]

Drumgath's recent drop in performances highlights the farce of the starred system.Any system which disadvantages clubs,who provide county players can not be allowed to continue.Also,the fact that our county men (minors and seniors)are playing a club game 24hrs after a USFC championship is crazy.
There is a solution to this club/county problem,but it will require a radical transformation of club football.Though this can benefit all clubs and players,I have no confidence that enough of our club representatives on the county board give a damn about players!

PS:Though one swallow doesn't make a summer,absolutely delighted yesterday on 3 fronts.

1.The superb attitude and performance of our players/management team.
2.We now have one of the best venues in the country.Well done Club Down---now for a training centre of excellence for our county teams.
3.Great turnout-15,000 mostly Down fans.I hope yesterday will further enhance the new found enthusiasm among Down fans.

Down ACFL Division 3

St. Paul's 2-12 Dundrum 3-15

Tight enough game at times with us coming back on a number of occasions, but as soon as we got within closing distance, Dundrum came down the field and got another few scores to open the lead up again. We played the best football of our season tonight, but we only seem to be able to do it against the bigger name teams, its against the teams on the same level as us we need to be doing it against to get some points on the board.

Down ACFL Division 3

Glenn lost at home to Ardglass - 7 or 8 points in it at the end

[lfdown2]

wobbller think the promotion/relegation affair is quite easy to understand, a motion was put forward concerning league and championship however it was defeated, therefore nothing has changed, easy as..

though totally agree on all other fronts, however is that perhaps our own fault for not taking up a place on the commity or putting our names forward for club rep?

just a thought, we are always very quick to critise but perhaps slow to act

[No1]

  Kilclief stuffed Carryduff by about 20 points last night.  Carryduff were woefully bad.
