Down Club Hurling & Football

[5times5times]

Some shambles went on in Mayobridge last night.. Next thing you'll be asking players to bring headtorches in case more games go to pens.

There's a notice up from Down Gaa now that all games are moved forward to 6:45. Last night wasn't thought through, if at a time where light will be an issue then the club hosting needs to have lights

Was at Saul v RGU

But no players team sheets or programme ? This was always part and parcel of championship

What going on

There might not have been a printed programme, but in my opinion the game itself was worth the £6 in as it was quite entertaining. Saul maybe should have tried another one or two balls in to O'Hare, as his fielding was superb at times.
Bell was excellent for RGU in the middle.

[Truth hurts]

The Fin will be demoted to Junior IMO once more. They should be commended much for their rise under Mark Copeland, but in 2024 they will struggle in the third division. Shamrock's are getting better and no team in that championship will scare them.

[Johnnysboys]

Loughinisland v Harps a good old fashioned game this evening. Loughinisland will take a lot of scalps this season and absolutely no one will want the Harps in round 2.
No shocks to date.

Caught that game also it was a close game. Great start from Saul but a strong finish to the first half from RGU. Peter Turley still doing the business at his age too

Turley some player. Must be 45 years of age but he really looks after himself. Teetotal celibate non smoker. A veritable Saint!

Good to read in the Irish News that Stevie Poacher has the bridge playing positive good football.

Bryansford supporters will be relieved that the bridge win wasn't down to their team being crap.

Eventful match between Glenn and Saval

[Nanderson]

Some finish to Stone and Castlewellan game. Stone score a goal 6 and half minutes into injury time to send game to extra time. Was only meant to be a minimum of 3 added minutes so unsure where McGrath found another 3 and half minutes.

EDIT: Longstone started extra time well with a goal and point to lead by 4 at ht. Castlewellan rallied in 2nd half to level the game and send to the game to penalties

Result: Stone win in sudden death penalties

Eventful match between Glenn and Saval

"Eventful" can have a host of meanings....

what happened?

Saval had 4 sent off and Glenn had one black carded.

Longstone were lucky to force extra time against Castlewellan. But worth their win in the end for sheer doggedness. Neither of them will reach the latter states though on that display.

Glenn v Saval another poor game. Neither of them will make latter stages either.
