very relaxed attitude DR - its not one club in Belfast but 9! and 3 of them are Div 1 sides - alarms bells have to be ringing loudly

Have these clubs got hurling at minor?

No

don't think Pearses and Ardoyne have minor teams either

here's how many Belfast clubs have no minor football teams of their own:
St Agnes
Eire Og
St Johns
Davitts
St Teresa's
Gorts
O'Ds

and there may be more - sorry state of affairs and no doubt Casement related

Surely everyone can see we are at an all team low. Is it much to ask the chairman to outline his plan in some detail?
Not general statements like   Get casement opened. But here's exactly what we are going to do?

We need some hope not soundbites

A report says there were 86 spectators at the game. Feel sorry for all division 4 players. GAA is letting them down . Give them a chance to play in Croke Park in a B championship after all they are asked to give the same commitment as division 1 players.

Surely Waterford v Antrim is exactly the type of fixture we will get in a B championship? Today clearly shows the appetite for such fixtures just isn't there unfortunately

What would you do then to motivate Div 4 players? Just leave as is?

I see no-one is predicting anyone slipping out of top 6 !
From what I saw of NG last year their best players were all their oldest players and this can't go on forever. Don't think it will be this year but surely they will need to rebuild at some stage......

Here's last year's Div 1 top 6 in order
1)Creggan
2)NG
3)Cargin
4)NEoin
5)LD
6)PG1

anyone think NEanna will break into this and at who's expense?

Good Luck to NE tomorrow - regardless of the rights and wrongs of the grading its great to see an Antrim team in Croker

Naomh Eanna in for the Junior championship??

Just read that the head of the GAA Tom Ryan is worried about an overspend at Casement...is he taking the piss! Or even worse is this the start of the GAA pulling out of casement?

sure about Div 1 football? I heard it's the same as last year / 11 games the split and 5 more games = 16 in total

No Cargin and St Galls players starting tomorrow - can't imagine that's happened in recent history

Are the Cargin boys staying away for a specific reason as a group? There is a St Galls lad in the subs

any news on Casement due or where is it all at?
