Don’t be worrying about me, you just make sure your satnav is working for div 2 this year.
A bigger yo-yo club than West Brom

Are West Brom Senior or Intermediate this year?

West Brom will be playing more gaa than a lot of teams by the looks of things this year. A few clubs may just club together and organise underage games.

When Donegal won the AI in 2012 , it was:

- maybe 25% because their defensive approach allowed them to protect slender leads.

- maybe 35% because because teams at that time had no idea how to play against their new system.

- but 40%+ because they’d 3 shithouse scoring machines playing up front, who never took a knock all season.

The reason they didn’t win another one is the second two advantages got smaller.

Game is littered now with managers who’ve only read half the book and  can’t see the wood for the trees.

Grow forwards. Win games.

Genuinely looking forward to Ballyhollands approach at senior level this year wobbler. Do they stick or twist and play with more forwards with these fantastic minors and risk the chance of getting relegated? I’m not for one second saying them young lads not up to it but may be a bit much to ask with all the retirements and the suspended few for the first couple of games.

Just on the abbey thing. Loughinisland have got themselves the biggest bluffer in Down Football. That is an already known fact before yesterday. Although he is not officially thaf manager of that under 15 team he is part of the set up

‘Biggest bluffer in down football’? How exactly? He brought cullyhanna to a senior championship final,their first if I’m not mistaken. Won a hogan with the abbey. Took Bredagh to two intermediate championships, and established them as a solid division two team.
