Might put my name in the hat for interview county management.

Go round the gyms and get guys 6ft + 90kg + regardless of skill

Apparently that's the way forward ....

Heard this during pre-season and thought surely not, then you see the team selection yesterday and just wow, shocked at how serious he was

Endas should, on paper pick up 2 pts away to cushendun tonight

Could be a good final game of the season to see who falls into that playoff position

Could we see any div 2 teams troubling either team to make the jump to Div 1?

Can anyone confirm what way relegation is setup this year?

With no relegations last year but still promotions does it mean 2 teams go down this year? Or is there still playoffs with 2nd and 2nd bottom is the leagues?

It's a real shame when the county chair lodges a complaint against a player, for playing against his club the day after a county game, instead of making the choice to drink to get more game time in and then he gets the full treatment from the management

??

County chairmans club didn't play today...
Probably best to get stories straight before making them up.

Down voted for it.

Regardless of delegates being hurlers or footballers the county voted. Should these views not represent down hurling that's something for down hurling to take up.

Why are people posting Carey V Middletown?

Dungannon have proved to be a serious Intermediate outfit in previous years & Div 2. Carrickmore have beaten them in the last 2 years to win Tyrone. They will be aiming for an Ulster title so by no means a given for Carey.

That being said if Carey have the right mindset & approach the game the right way I fancy them to get over the line by 2/3 points.

Any word on the county setup this year?

Is Gleeson staying?
Are all the players staying on again or any drop outs?

Any new faces in the squad etc?

Usually around this time if year county teams are putting the final touches to a pre-season plan etc

Certainly a good days hurling!

St. Endas put in a performance that certainly suggests they belong in senior championship. As for Cushendall, they were kept honest got the result will be glad to have gotten over a no win games and build for Rossa.

Loghuile v St johns was a great battle that really could have went either way, both teams can look at certain incidents in isolation but bottom line is St Johns have been knocking on the door for quite a few years now and probably did deserve it.

Don't you just love championship season!

Loughgiel V St. Johns

Johnnies at 15/8 is a tasty enough price. I'd almost have them as favorites.

Cushendall V St Endas


Endas @ 9/1. If I'm being honest I think they're abit further out than that. Could give me 15/1 and I still wouldn't touch it.
