Anyone complaining about the refs performance yesterday doesnt know what theyre talking about, just look at the other county discussion boards on here and see what they think of their refs, Derry ones are denfitly a higher standard especially when the main gripe is that some are just arrogant not that theyre inept

Quote from: braveheart on October 25, 2026, 07:05:14 PMThe 2 better teams won today.
Desertmartin were well organised and had too much pace for Greenlough. The goalkeeper, Mc eldowney and Mc elhennon were excellent for Desertmartin.
Magherafelt brought a hunger that Newbridge weren't prepared for nor could they match it. Conal Higgins is a special talent,but they had a number of star performers.


On a negative point, Celtic park is a white Elephant. The pitch was in excellent condition but it had to be because it doesn't get any games! If it doesn't get any games it's pointless having it.
"A white elephant". I'm assuming you don't know what that phrase means. It had 2 or 3 IFC QFs, nearly all JFC knockout games and the IFC and SFC finals. Which games in particular (besides all of those) do you think should have been played there?

Edit* it also had a couple of SHC games there too.
It has little to No purpose.

And your examples are laughable.

Nice of you to show your disdain for half of the clubs in the county that their biggest days out are laughable

Quote from: Brendan on October 22, 2026, 10:57:53 AMWe need 2 County standard grounds in a county as busy as ours, Screen no longer any use and if Celtic park isn't considered suitable for spectators comfort then Glen defintly isn't either

Which games are you thinking of and what sort of crowd do they attract?



County footballers and Hurlers have been using Celtic park, ladies county teams using Owenbeg for league, that'd be week on week tramping at the worst of winter.

Clubs weren't as willing to use their grounds for County finals this year either as you'd expect which has led to some underage finals being played on the Owenbeg 4g which is hardly appropiate

Have to put on a show for the Instagram pics of course.

Had my oldest, whos on the spectrum as theyd say, at a kick boxing class the other night, picking him up and instructor takes me aside and said about him making noises and other kids laughing at him, he didnt seem to notice and id never witnessed others making fun of him at school or football (most of the kids at football are from his school anyway). Id have thought most kids would be used to ones being a bit odd these days so was disappointed this has started to happen, part of me is glad hes in his own little world so didnt notice the taunts but the more he stays in his world the more fun is going to be poked at him

Think that u13 competition is so they can get a better idea for seeding u14 leagues next year as there was a lot of chopping and changing this year.

U21/20/19 badly missed would be relatively easy to fit in with most teams wrapped up for the year
