poor enough match today for the first game in the ulster c'ship.Both teams frustrated with some of the hand pass calls from the ref,and he awarded some very soft frees for minimun contact. The football was not what we'd hope for from two of the supposed contenders in Ulster.The best team did win, POR got his retaliation in first ahead of Monday's papers who probably won't be impressed with what we saw.Down do have more time to work on the hand-pass as anything that looks remotely dodgy will be blown up and in defence this would cost dearly against Donegal in two weeks time.

it was a scrappy enough game alright and the best team won, I think Armagh are going to be hard to beat in Ulster,I can see them getting to an Ulster Final. I thought they were physically stronger than Derry, and have a bit of quality on the bench

Am i right in saying that as the championship draws have not yet been made neirther has a weekend been given as for the first round?

Just checked the Master Fixture List TG and it seems the first round for championships are fixed for Thursday 5th, Friday 6th, Saturday 7th, Sunday 8th, Monday 9th Aug
Then next round 26-30th Aug, then Sept 10, 11, 12th, Senior Football Championship final scheduled for 3rd October

Thanks Goldenyears- I appreciate it

Has June 6th been set aside for the 1st rd of the Reserve Championships? Surely the Co.Board could go ahead and make the draw for this competition without the new sponsors being in place???

Div one. Rostrevor 2.9 Kilcoo  0.18

[Mid Down Gael]

Div one. Rostrevor 1.9 Kilcoo  0.18

Rostrevor scored 2-9. Very entertaining game with Barry Kane and Paul Devlin kicking 7 points each to send Kilcoo to second in the table.

I have wrongly printed Rostrevor scored 1.9

MDG - Is Kilcoo's pitch open or where are you playing your games?

MDG - Is Kilcoo's pitch open or where are you playing your games?

Our main pitch is currently closed as its been lengthened and widened. Our new pitch is not far away at present. We are playing all our games away this season with the possibility of maybe a few home games at the latter part of the season if either pitch is ready for matchs.
