Was it not the locals who picked them?

Aye some locals picked it alright but it wasn't a reflection of what everyone wanted apparently.

Was the selection not by a sub-committee & ratified by the club committee who are voted for by club membership at AGM?
It's about as democratic as can be.

So how was the management team ratified? Why wouldn't a club of Burren's calibre have a committee?

I think the case with Burren at the minute, is that should you make a universally (or as close as) welcome appointment, then nobody tries to interfere with it; through official means or otherwise. This decision seems to have rankled enough people for them to go check their constitutions.

I'm so confused—what happened? Check constitutions? WTF

You're taking me too literally.

The general principles of how to stop things in GAA land are to first challenge the committee in charge that this isn't how things are done in their club, and if all else fails, dig up the constitution, find something to back you up, and throw a spanner into the works.

DJ Morgan taking Rostrevor. They must be serious contenders again for intermediate championship.

Rostrevor made a wise appointment because DJ had previously worked well with Carryduff. Does anyone have a current list of appointments and managers? Is the merry-go-round coming to an end, or are there still clubs looking to hire mercenaries?

Why? Are you available for hire?

Delighted to see Paul Faloon refing the Ulster final. Well-deserved, tho there's alway a risk Kilcoo won't turn up in protest
