Truth hurts

And where, in al that mumbo jumbo you have just listed, does it say that the only way to promote language and other aspects of traditional Irish Culture, is by involvement in Scor?

Where did I say it was the only way?
I believe that clubs should be sanctioned for not participating in the competition. Bredagh and Carryduff are the 2 biggest clubs in the county and they cannot get a Scor competitor. Give me a break.

Maybe they see Scor for the outdated nonsense that it is. Perhaps GAA should try and bring the competition into 21st century or maybe just turn off the life support. I think the weekend shows us we have bigger problems in Down

The gaa is a bigger organization than just football you know, Clubs in the county need to realize this as we move forward.

It is indeed time to move forward not back to 19th century and shows of Gombeenism and nepotism. Now hurry on for the school bus and we can pick up again in the morning .

Yes and there is also Hurling plus our sister organisations Camogie and Ladies Football.Young ones join up to play games not to participate
in Elocution or Speak/Drama type activities.This singing of our National anthem before National League fixtures is from a time long since defunct.
Fine for Championship maybe but in freezing depths of winter it's a complete nonsense.

Thats not true and many young people love the Scor , I am happy that there are a few true GAA clubs in the county who push this and keep it going.

Each to their own and I do really hope you enjoy it each year but stop ramming the Scor thing down everyone throats on an annual basis.Does your own child/children or even yourself participate?

Scor is a pile of outdated crap. Friends of mine forced their children to participate for years due to their beliefs in it - when the children turned 16 Scor was long gone. No one only old knee tapping people are interested in it in 2022. Fine the clubs - give me a break. They would gladly pay it to get rid of it from the calendar..

So, what defines a true GAA club?

Too many steps

Quote from: Ed Hardy on February 26, 2022, 01:36:35 PM
U20's beat Antrim 3.5 to 0.9 in Ballykinlar. Anyone at it?

Bit late on this one - team from memory (could be wrong on 1 or 2 of them) was

1 C Grant

2 M Hynds
3 R Magill
4 A Cole

5 C Rodgers
6 P McCarthy
7 P McEvoy

8 S Donegan
9 S Carr

10 O Cunningham
11 P Clancy
12 H. Magill

13 O Savage
14 A Crimmins
15 S McCusker

Rest of Kilcoo lads back this week.

Tough conditions with the wind.

Reasonable 1st half built up enough of a lead to get over the line. Antrim outscored them in 2nd half. But Down had more goal chances but didn't take them.

Lots of subs as you would expect early in the season - guess the management are still working out their best team.

Tyrone next week will give a better indication of how they are doing.
