Down Club Hurling & Football

[Our Nail Loney]

St Michaels is mainly Magheralin, which is 100% in Down. Moira is also in down, as is kilwarin which the club would attract from.

the club house and pitch are in down.

[southdown]

D4S, are you heading to Laois? 

[spiritof91and94]

Club fixtures may be in for a serious hit in lieu of the county team.
3rd round of qualifiers are due on sat 2nd aug with all ireland quarter finals the following weekend.
I also feel Down can beat Laois and if Coulter & co get a bit of swagger about them, this summer could extend a bit further than expected.
Nothing beats confidence at the end of the day and our boys have nothing to lose.

I would be shocked if Fegan starts, he didnt show up against Offaly at all. I would much rather see Kearney getting a run out.

[Hoof Hearted]

just off the subject slightly lads. i will be in Newcastle Co.Down on Sunday week 3rd August, the day of the qualifiers 4th round, anyone reccommend the best GAA bar to catch whichever match is on ?
Cheers

[amallon]

I haven't been in it in years but I'd imagine Quinns is the place to go.

[corn02]

Strange seeing Murney at CHB, I would imagine it will not stay like this. Carr is the best replacement for Doyle.

[the milkman]

i reckon he will go to full back line somewhere  and mc guigan will come out to the wing with carr moving to CHB.

[D4S]

D4S, are you heading to Laois? 

Ripping southdown can't get to the match because of work.  Ma+da and brother headin down, would love to take a sickie...but I was sick the day after the ulster semi and I think the boss knows it wasnt a dodgy burger in clones, savin that sickie for when we get drawn against Kerry next saturday evenin:)!
