The championship arrangements committee has agreed dates, times, venus and refs. Can somebody post the details?

[uselessfootballer]

Would any of the posters on this thread know the name/contact no for any of the coaches taking the East Down U-14 School of Excellence trials/squad this season.

I take an U-14 team and need to speak with one of them re a player of mine who is shortlisted for the final trials tomorrow. I emailed the east down sec requesting the info at the start of the week with no response.

If anyone can help please PM me with info, thanks.

Thanks wobbler. A man with his finger on the pulse. Have you the hurling details as well?

Fri 10th Aug 7.30   6   CLUAIN DAIMH (Clonduff)   v   ATH BHRIAIN (Bryansford)  Attical    D Moore

Why is this game being brought to Attical, I know they deserve a game but this is a very big draw and I am afraid they have called it wrong.
Castlewellan was the obvious choice for this game.

[No1]

  Can either of you explain the craic with Magic going to Loughinisland for football?

 The blues are stretching their net further and wider, is no-one safe?

[spiritof91and94]

Loughinisland 0.8 Clonduff 0.8 - played last night, Clonduff led 0.8 to 0.4 at half time.

[Bacon]

Why did McGrouty go to Darragh Cross? I would have thought Kilclief was the obvious choice for Ards footballers? St Paul's are probably playing at too low a level.

[Lecale2]

I think Magic played minor football for Kilclief. Was there a falling out?

[johnneycool]

Why did McGrouty go to Darragh Cross? I would have thought Kilclief was the obvious choice for Ards footballers? St Paul's are probably playing at too low a level.

Darragh Cross is probably handier for Brendan than Kilclief as he doesn't need to bother about ferry boats and the likes.

Magic on the other hand is a law onto himself and f**k knows where the Loughinisland thing came in.

[Lecale2]

The attraction of Div 1 football maybe?

[No1]

  There was no falling out at all, he played a couple of minor games and that was it.  I thought he registered for football with S*ul at some stage.

[Colonel Cool]

Thanks wobbler. A man with his finger on the pulse. Have you the hurling details as well?

There you go Bacon.

That referee in the first hurling game isn't up to much.
