Down Club Hurling & Football

[Dubh driocht]

The clubs that voted to shaft Tally were a bit like the DUP members who got rid of Arlene I.e. no plan B.
Remember Down lost more games in 2016 and 2017 than any other county and were relegated to Division 3 in 2018.
Tally steadied the ship without setting the world alight and paid the price for a shambolic performance against Donegal.  However starting from scratch when one club is consistently dominating is never a good tactic and while the plan seems to have been to get Kilcoo become part of the solution, rather than the problem, it has seemingly backfired.
We need to take stock and remember that a strong senior team requires all shoulders to the wheel

Coming from div 3 to play 2 teams coming from div 1 it's no shock they got hammered.

What about those that clamoured to get rid of Jim McCorry after he took Down into Div 1 and had a couple of bad days in the championship?

[Godsown]

Believe County Management are meeting tonight about the ongoing situation. Must be serious if it's a Sunday meeting and I believe Kate Adie has been seen in and around Castlewellan. Nolan will be all over it in the morning

[Hard2Listen2]

Aw now come on.

I like the Nolan sisters & they had a few decent songs but surely they're not being considered to manage Down!!!

[Godsown]

Don't be flippant now. This is a serious matter so it is

[Godsown]

Down are now officially looking for a manager for 128.5 days longer than Jamie Bwyson  was on hunger strike
