Betcha Glenn and Tullylish are looking forward to next year!

Yeah, because the teams there already are so evenly matched, we won't stand a chance!

•   Round 2
MAYOBRIDGE 0-12 V 3-14 BURREN

•   Round 8
MAYOBRIDGE 3-12 V 1-3 ROSTREVOR

BURREN 5-17 V 0-13 ANNACLONE

•   Round 11
KILCOO 5-14 V 1-3 LIATROIM

•   Round 14
CASTLEWELLAN 5-20 V 0-8 CUMANN PHEADAIR NAOFA

That's the problem they aren't evenly matched the league structure as it stands is not right the leagues were more competitive with 4 divisions

Is it true that Croke Park have stopped the streaming of County games and the club championship games. If this is the case it will be a big loss to the exiles who got great use of the service

Dont think it can have come from Croke Park as Armagh are streaming championship games the cross match was available for £1 which is fair enough anyone I know living away oversees would have gladly paid it to watch there team come championship time.....why or what reason has the matches been dropped can someone from the County board explain??

Some weird results in division one last night. Burren had a shocking first half v the ford but conditions were terrible. What sort of team did kilcoo have out v the kingdom??? Annnaclone and ballyholland are doing well at the minute. What happened the bridge last night, are rostrevor  really that bad as the bridge as a club are in decline big time??
Here Jim, anytime your over at our club this year when your club is getting a lend of our ground I will give you a tour around Downs oldest club and I will let you see for yourself how much decline we are in  ;)

Sorry to correct you but I believe Mayobridge is not the oldest club in Down

Nice touch from the BBC although it would have been even nicer if they also included John Egan who also passed away in 2012.

totally agree

Does anyone know the price into the game on friday ? I hope there is a strong ref

Neil Cousins, he can bench press 80KG allegedly. All is good

That'll make him a good ref alrite  ;D

Although no one ever goes on the field to play bad or make mistakes the error made by the Bridge keeper cost them. It wasn't a great ball he was given for the 1st goal though he still should have dealt with it while he also failed to deal with the 2nd.

I think your being a bit harsh on the goalie, the pass really wasn't good at all. Looking back, I'm sure the centre-half is wishing he put 60 yards on it when he had the chance.

For the 2nd goal, the goalie is always at a disadvantage with a standing jump vs. a big man running in.


Also, congratulations to the fellas - a good reward for a helluva lot of work.

Perhaps I am being harsh -  the pass for the 1st goal wasn't great but in all honesty he should have took her while for the 2nd goal you make a fair enough point and the advantage was with the attacker - overall though Kilcoo were the better team on the day and were deserving winners irrespective of the goals

Congratulations to Kilcoo - Over the 60 mins they were the better team if even only slightly but the right team in the end won. Although no one ever goes on the field to play bad or make mistakes the error made by the Bridge keeper cost them. It wasn't a great ball he was given for the 1st goal though he still should have dealt with it while he also failed to deal with the 2nd. Still the bridge had the full match to recover which they never did or weren't allowed to by a motivated Kilcoo outfit. Hope Kilcoo can know give Ulster a real rattle for all Down Gaels.

This website compares all the odds of the top bookies, very handy to find out which bookmakers is the best value for accumulators. In my experience William hill seems to give the best odds on GAA

on reflection charlie tully i have chilled. incidentally the only coverage of the game was radio ulster [1341 medium wave]

Wrong it was covered by Destination Newry....Well done Down on beating Tipp records show it aint easy to win after coming of the back of defeat in 6 days. Fair play to all
