Down Club Hurling & Football

[Johnnysboys]

Burren do it again. Pete McGrath installed as manager of their U19/seconds/thirds squads. They must have a bottomless pit of money to pay for their current setups. Along with taking Rostrevor minors Pete won't spend much time at home in the evenings!!!

Must be going for the biggest prize of them all Down GAA Premier Reserve Football Championship

[Truth hurts]

What in the name of good god are you all talking about?

Burren must have a serious amount of money, no way is pete mcgrath going to manage burren seconds thirds and 19s for nothing. Mcgrath surely gets about though

Rostrevor flat to the mat with training. Ill be looking for odds for the two down clubs to win the all ireland senior and intermediate next year with kilcoo and rostrevor!!! Wonder has that been done many times before with the same county?

[Truth hurts]

Are you serious about Pete McGrath taking Burren thirds? If this is true then we are on a slippery slope in the association than I thought we were. What is wrong with all the Burren coaches who won an array of underage titles.

What do you mean flat to the matt? or are they just doing what every other club is doing in pre-season?

Yeah I sure am serious. No expense spared up the road!!!
ALL the burren coaches u speak off are tied up elsewhere. I'm speaking of coaches only - they are like every other club where people are there for the craic not to coach.. talking to a Burren man tonight who said - Neil Coulter won u16 paul mcgirr and minor St. Paul's was up in Killeavy but is currently with Benny in Rostrevor
Eoghan McCartan and Steven O'Hare won feile and runner up in feile are current senior coaches in Burren (along with McCrory, Adams and now Pete).
Michael magill (point man) is in Louth with a club along with big Anthony Cunningham- Stefan White won minor championship last year is at Cooley Kickams, Pat Cunningham (Ballymartin man) is with Down minors and Seàn O'Hare has quit coaching.
Despite all this - they will still field at every age group and with 2 teams at some levels - fair play to them. Unlike other clubs - everyone in burren wants to be involved - they don't mind not working with their own kids and in the last ten years they have had some amount of success at underage. Personally I still think it will be 2-3 years before they are winning senior titles again.
