Ulster Club Football League 2008

[screenexile]

My understanding is that it is the Ulster Senior Football league. I would have thought that would be fairly self explanatory i.e. Senior teams and not Intermediate teams.

Is there a roll of honour and has any Tyrone sides won it?

[screenexile]

Fair enough if that's the way you want to interpret it but I don't think it's particularlyhelpful to have intermediate teams play Senior teams as they are intermediate for a reason. Sure it's possible that an intermediate team in somewhere like Tyrone or Derry (with a lot of clubs) would probably beat a few senior sides in say fermanagh (which only has a few clubs) but it would be a massive exception to the rule IMO.

Carrickmore won it 2 years a go!

We've been in the competition since its inception, once as an intermediate (championship) team, last year. As far as I know, we were accepted on that occasion to help balance the numbers. Which is fair enough I'd say. By the way, I'd say there is a world of difference between a club at the top of the intermediate tree and a club at the bottom of the intermediate tree.

This is the fourth year of it isn't it? 
Silverbridge have entered in to it every year (though we withdrew at the last minute last year) and this is the third year we've been intermediate and division 2 and we have always done well beating our fair share of senior sides.

In 2006 we were intermediate and division 2 and if memory serves me well we missed out on the knock out stages when Tyholland beat us by two points - we'd won every other game.   
We also reached the knockout stages the year before though we were senior then.

btw intermediate and senior teams play each other all the time in Armagh.

But you will have the Tyrone county champions visiting your impressive surroundings.

This year's competition was supposed to have been played on a regional basis - I thought that meant we'd be local - vut in fact it means playing all over the region !

Yes, we have Dromore coming up on Sunday. Looking Forward to that. I hope we repay the welcome we got down there that we got when we played them boys in 03.

Rossa from Belfast are also in Division 2 and also play Intermediate championship if they bother to turn up 4 the match

[illdecide]

Ardboe and St Pauls of Belfast should be interesting games in our group, infact the last time we played Ardboe in a friendly match there was a free for all and St Pauls are well from Belfast enough said

They'll definitely not be turning up cos they have dropped out and been replaced by Coalisland

[screenexile]

We've some diesel bill to pay too!! Maghery... Aghyaran... Ballyshannon but it's OK! We got the other Derry team in our group at home 

[Candyman]

Aghyaran (SP?) is a disaster to get to....
