Lotto your shameful and faceless dig should have resulted in a ban.

I am trying to purchase tickets for Saturday's match for the children, can these be got online?
No idea what ticket allocation will be like or how many will be allowed. I hear the Down supporters club are running a bus/buses.

Its near Wednesday afternoon, you would think the public could be informed

Heard 2000 allowed in total.

By the time Croke Park, Provincial and County Boards take their cut for sponsors etc. Players/Coaches and their families get their allocation there could only be a few hundred left for general sale.

With so few they might just distribute them all through the clubs - keep an eye on the Down social media is best bet.
2000 in a ground that holds 25k. Madness to be honest. How big an attendance would this get in normal times plus it's a ground totally open to the elements. Really disappointing.

Was Burren and Ford U15 0.00 to 0.00 last night?

Abandoned. Something needs to be done about these underage matches. I see a blind eye has been turned to Sunday. No doubt last nights abandoned match will also

On another note I see Danny Hughes calling for a John McEntee type manager to come into Down. Surely we are now past this? We need a man who will take control of 17s 20s and seniors and knows what's around the County

I don't see why the under 20 management can't step straight in

Smurfy you have left a bigger cliffhanger than an episode of Eastenders!

Good luck to the U20s tonight. I'm sure they will do us proud.

Disappointing night, Down were in control and looked to have the match won but unfortunately the lads just seemed to be running on empty for the last 10/15 mins. The extra time win over monaghan clearly still in the legs in the heavy conditions.
We probably should have been further ahead but for some poor misses and shot selection. Hopefully still a big future ahead in the Down jersey for some of these young fellas.

Disappointing end to a great U20 campaign.  They were a joy to watch. Missed alot of scores tonight like the ulster final but looked like they would get over the line. But Roscommon stuck to the task and simply took their scores. Down failed to take easy scores and paid the price for that. A lot of good footballers there no need to rush them in to senior yet or the management. It would stand to Down in future if this management team stayed in place for the next year or 2.

SuperRed

The lads have done superbly to win an Ulster Championship... Maybe the extra time last week just saw us run out of steam. Plenty to be proud and excited about moving forward. Thought the conditions took their toll and Roscommon just had that little bit extra in the end.

Mourne Rover

Both sides missed plenty of chances, but the points from relatively easy positions which went astray when we were three up in the final quarter were crucial. Our discipline was excellent in Ulster so it is a pity that it disappeared in the closing stages today. However, a provincial championship is a rare achievement for Down at any level so congratulations to everyone involved in a great run which for the first time in quite a while has provided us with some excellent senior prospects. The fact that Roscommon had two weeks to prepare, while we were taken to extra time a week ago, was pretty clearly a factor. Our generally poor record on heavy pitches is a debate for another day, so good luck in the final to a fine Roscommon team.

Seriously??? The team beat Fermanagh, Cavan and Monaghan on route to an Ulster title.. meanwhile the big hitters Donegal, Tyrone, Derry were all in the other side of the draw Batein lumps outta each other.. still in the legs after extra time - every dog on the street knows they have been training since January in the parks around the county. Legs shudnt be a problem in their 4th game of a campaign...

I think tonight we were found out on the pitch and on the line. Some of the substitutions made were baffling - mccusker and Clarke offer zero off the bench IMO but club blood runs thicker than county water... our discipline was appalling in the tackle and shot selection was poor too..
unfortunately a number of these lads will probably be rushed thru to senior now and in all fairness probably only 3/4 of them are fit for it.
