Down Club Hurling & Football

[befair]

Stream was working Ok before the game, but offline now; commentators must be talking to themselves now

[bannside]

Working perfectly now!!

[Ambrose]

They had said they weren't going to stream today's game as the above screenshot from earlier this afternoon shows.

Decent crowd, poor enough atmosphere 7 points a piece. All to play for.

[general]

Point keeper pulled a couple of top notch saves. Kilcoo currently 2 up 8 left

[befair]

Poor game; Kilcoo a bit fortunate with the goal, tho unfortunate in Daryl Brannigan's black card; showed their usual doggedness to grind out the result. Wpt probably overrated, due to semifinal result, when Ballyholland collapsed. Kilcoo maybe not the force of a few years ago

[Cuan12]

Well well well, the mighty point beaten, over rated, supported by a few muppets , told you Yewtree, show me a good loser and I will show you a loser, quote from some one called Shankly, can't remember the team he managed, and two out of three ain't bad for the east, so leaves you to support the point town and they are going wel!!
Enjoy your night

Congrats to kilcoo. Hard luck for the point.

So let the begrudgers on here start their keyboard bull shit

[Mourne Rover]

Kilcoo are not the force they were but they know how to grind out narrow wins and their experience could still take them a long way in the Ulster championship. While they are as tight as ever at the back and have come up with a mobile midfield, their attack probably relies too heavily on the Johnston brothers. Laverty did set up the crucial goal with a deflected pass, but was otherwise barely involved.

The Point had every chance to at least take it to a replay, but they could do with another couple of scoring forwards to take the pressure off McGarry. They had to score a goal if they were going to edge it and it was unfortunate that their best opportunity went to Mallon at such an early stage.

Murdoch from the Point and Ward of Kilcoo, if he is available, would be worth a run at county level.

[Maurice Moss]

Delighted with the result and to be bringing Frank back to Kilcoo this evening. Commiserations to Warrenpoint in what was a well fought game.

Not bad for a redneck club

Better team won today, point can have no excuses. Team of the decade maybe even the last 25 years

Well done to Kilcoo and Glenn today

Kilcoo undoubtedly the team of the decade....as for the last 25 years they have merely matched the Bridge in winning multiple county titles..yet not conquering Ulster -never mind even getting a look at Andy Merrigan

Yes PTC ,You are correct in both your statements-however you have not addressed the issue that the all conquering Bridge and Kilcoo sides have failed to progress beyond the County.... some team surely...within the County...maybe Micky will deliver-after all is that not what he was employed for?

[terrifictommy]

Not as good as the team from a few years ago where I genuinely thought they have a chance in Ulster. This team will not pass the first hurdle.

Congratulations to Glenn, fairly good performance without excelling.

Kilcoo better team. Thought Ward was brilliant. 1-04 between two midfielders.

Now Jarlath Burns has commented on kilcooos sledging. No place in the game for that and if he gets in as president he will be stamping it out. Anyword how Kilcoo got on at the ulster council appeals last night? They would have been safer to take the suspension and move on as it has got some bad publicity since Sunday. This has happened before so it's not a one off incident

is this the same jarlath burns that also says we need to do away with the tri colour and irish national anthem?🤔

And what would be terribly wrong with that ? Sports association nothing else and time to maker it more welcoming for others. Too many rednecks who want to keep us in the past , maybe they can't wield influence anymore through violence and are trying to keep the GAA back thankfully we are progressives and moving away from this political nonsense.

Tomorrow a progressive town and club with lots of crossover from football to the gaelic can hopefully soon be the symbol of a new GAA as opposed to one redneck club that is firmly rooted in the past.

The peoples favourites can be a real new symbol of sport - the point to win by 7 masterminded yet again by Barney.
Barney's legacy is the Burren great teams (he had a serious impact on all those he coached from Burren) and now his stamp is on the point.

Come out come where ever you are...
