CPN are building something special. We have serious numbers now
Why would a paid senior manager have an issue with bringing 19 players on match day. He can only use 5. Makes his job easier. Everyone getting plenty of football
I think it would strengthen the lower league teams and players.
Something needs to happen. Division 4 has gone completely stale. Add in 2 teams next year.

Please list CPN's honours since the turn of the millennium at reserve level?

It's not about honours.. it's about being able to facilitate players with games. If CPN have the numbers - what has their trophy haul or lack of it got to do with anything???

Sandstorm

Try telling Dublin it's not about the trophies.

I still stand that the top 4 premier reserve teams would walk division 4 and complete at the top in division 3 even though both would play on a Friday
If teams like CPN Kilcoo Burren and Mayobridge played in 3 and 4 would it not help the lower league players? The lift a Dundrum coming and playing CPN on a Friday



That was what smurfy said, he is mentioning CPN is the same breath as the 3 teams who have dominated Reserve football (and senior) the past 20 years.
He has no substance to be saying their seconds should be playing football in division 4.

Picked probably the worst year to come out with that statement, given how competitive Div 4 has been this year. Perhaps showing your lack of awareness/interest in the lower divisions.

Couple of nice results tonight.. Clonduff and ourselves setting the pace with Carryduff finding their feet now too...

How teams can't smell blood with Kilcoo this year
Devlin Gone
O Hanlon Gone
Morgan gone
Johnstone hamstring
Laverty knee

What more motivation do teams need.

Championship is wide open for whoever wants it. Will Kilcoo get another handy one?
Noes the time for teams to start focusing on the big one

Ourselves
Kilcoo
Clonduff
Burren
Mayobridge


That's who can win it

When you say gone? Do you mean not playing this year?

For me having seen most teams play with the exception of Burren and The Bridge, Clonduff or CPN if they can overcome the mental block against the magpies are in with a great chance of winning the Championship

The mental block will change this year.. the time of the magpie is coming to an end...

What's with a division 2 team not wanting to travel to an away game and being accused of using Covid as the reason? Big big accusation that. And really can't prove that it is not covid. The same team played Friday night so they must have got covid results over the weekend

Do tell more - first ive heard of this

manwithnoplan

It's not really unrealistic to have had positive Covid tests between Friday night and now. Strange comment to make.

Truth hurts

Kilcoo will still walk the senior  football championship, Carryduff and the south Down super clubs will shit themselves again

Smurfy123

No it's not strange but when the rumour comes out on the Thursday that this team wasn't going to field on the Monday came about and was confirmed on Sunday that's what the issue is with it.
We never shit ourselves just beat by a better team
We are building and ready for the big one
