Down Club Hurling & Football

[here comes 6]

Lads, when this was put to the vote at a county board meeting, only 7 or so clubs voted against League re-structuring, my club included. At the end of the day county board delegates on behalf of their clubs voted unanimously for these proposals to go through. We are stuck with them for the forseeable.

This doesnt affect any of the div1 clubs it just protects them from ever being relegated. The likes of Clonduff, Longstone etc. will now never be relegated + they are all sure of at least a 2nd chance in the the Championship.

So now if what happens last year and Burren and Bryansford are Drawn against each other it doesnt really matter.  We will never (in my opinion) see the likes of Annaclone, Loughinisland or Liatriom back in a chamoionship final due to these decisions.

This vote was rushed through before the 1st league game was played and as this doesnt affect the top clubs, so NO kick up was caused.

There no is law to say it cant be over turned

Lads judging by league tables at present both kilclief and shamrocks would be plying their trade in div 2 of the new system . so using these results as a basis for arguments is wrong.

Kilcoo are winning by 15.

The SFC 1st round has been an entirely pointless exercise.

[Line Ball]

Kilcoo 4-20 - An Riocht 0-07

This is turning into a real joke.

Hi Lucan how do you mean a funny wee field?

[general]

Sounds like lucan being a twat minus15!!

He must realise all clubs dont have stupid money to spend..especially the likes off a country team like Glenn.

[lucan]

no insult intended minus 15. the field is not the largest in the county but i was refering more to the way it falls away to the side furtherest from the club house.i think it benefited drumgath in the second half.

[dundrumite]

Sounds like lucan being a t**t minus15!!

Ya got a tener off me for one pathetic prediction  Loaded I would say.. How is that LMS going? we looking another one before season is out

[Minus15]

I thought that is what you were alluding to alright Lucan and I think you have a point. Don't take no notice of The general! He is intoxicated in Amsterdam en route to Poland at the moment!
