What are the names of the stands in Clones again.  Gerry Arthurs is the seated stand.

Seated area opposite Gerry Arthurs = 
The big Terrace that runs the length of the field = McGrane stand??
Behind the goals at the Clones side =
Behind the goals at the countryside end =

I have always heard that referred to as The Hill.  Does it also have another name?

[southdown]

Seated area opposite Gerry Arthurs =  McGrane, terrace above is "The Hill"
The big Terrace that runs the length of the field = McGrane stand??

Ardglass have good footballers but will always be a shower only a mother could love.
Playing in ardtole is a frightening episode but not as scary as playing behind the primary school you never knew who would hit first the players or the mouthy supporters.
Ardglass now seem to have the mentality that everyone is against them and it even has some east down refs afraid of their actions just ask drumgath/glassdrumman players


Never a great idea to go sprinting down the wing in that old place, could end up on yer hole with not a player near you very handy. Running the gauntlet i think it's called

  Brings back the glory days of Kilclief, S*ul, Ardglass and Bright all in Division 4 at the same time, and we wondered why we couldn't entice boys away from other sports!

  The S*ul "pitch" at Lough Money was another cracker, although they were too busy chasing sheep to scrap 

  I'll always remember their U-12's hiding behind the wall in their Derby County strip afraid to play the mighty Green n Reds!!  The tubes.

When did Down last play in Clones?  Was it a qualifier against Donegal?

whats happening with Burren...Barton was the big name appointment....all pear shaped looking or is it a case of the Burren big chiefs having unrealistic aspirations of themselves.

Just thought I'd try to generate some chat about the impending club championship!

Who if anyone will stop Mayobridge going for 4 in a row?
Seems at the minute the most likely contenders would be Kilcoo (inconsistent though), Longstone (was last year a 1 off,big miss with mark poland out), Burren (They will improve for the championship) and my tip to challenge this year is Castlewellan (They're looking the strongest they've been for quite a few years).

[miss mess]

Lonstone have been playing there last 4/5 games without 5/6 boys from their championship team last year.  They'll be there, dont worry.  Its way to early to compare league with championship yet though.
