Yeah Ciaran Mooney (jnr) is a referee in the county. Had a bad knee condition and has stopped playing football and taken up the whistle! Why?

Thought our game was a foregone conclusion tonight so i ventured to burren to see them topple the ford... my god burren are rubbish... the started with a bang and scored a goal through mc kernan but then took the foot off the gas... i was standing at half time saying to others the real burren will surely come out in the second half... but they were worse if anything... the ford completley dominated the game and Kalum King caused all sorts of problems in full forward. Great to see Joe Ireland playing good football again - a player who surely deserves a place on the county team... If the ford maintain this level of football - they will take some stopping in the championship... As for us - well Liatroim have been knocking the door and suppose we were due a defeat caus we have been winning games we didnt deserve to...

The league tables seem to indicate some sort of East Down renaissance this year.

I would have liked to see that Lecale/Stone game myself, but due to work commitments I cannot attend, would be interesting, and although I was iffy at the start, the more I think about it, Lecale might not get the hammering people predict. Looking forward to hearing a report on it.

Watched that Kilcoo/Bridge game last night myself, thought it would have been a cracker. It was a good enough game alright with some lovely moves put together by both teams, although Kilcoo just did it consistantly while the Bridge played for 5mins then stopped for 20. Saval men watching that wont really have much to fear if the Bridge play like that. Laverty again the talking point for the magpies, for his performance, but equally for his antics in this game. A number of Bridge players getting frustrated with Lavertys diving. The Penalty was laughable, Garvey wasnt too impressed at all. One would wonder when referees are going to open their eyes to this.

The only thing the county will get out of this bastardisation of a team is the money each club had to pay to take part in the farce.

Only 4 or 5 Kilclief men (not necessarily our best players) attended any "training" and lads that couldn't even get on for their own club teams were showing up. The majority of the starting team tonight will be from Saul which will suit the man whose brainchild the whole thing was. It could well be a massacre.

Final score was: ASK Lecale 0-13 Longstone 1-15

ASK missed a penalty in injury time. Muted enough game. Stone were always in control. Mullan, Kerr, King and Magee very good for ASK. Mark Poland and Conor Poland very good for the Stone.

If ASK had of had the best players from all three clubs out then the story could have been very different.

Although county website has score ASK 0-12 Longstone 1-16.
