Surely Laverty is going to struggle to go back to Down after this club season. Will all the best players in Down play for him?

Stole from the Ulster SFC Thread but apparently this is the story.

"So Kilcoo objected to the ref and went whole way to Croke Park about it eventually David Gough gets appointed. Now apparently Gough won't be doing it and theres a doubt whether or not it'll even go ahead.

Apparently the Down CB
1. Refused to guarantee Faloons safety when he asked.
2. Refused to allow him to have open mic as he's been accused in the past of saying things to Kilcoo players.
3. Refused to issue a statement backing him.

The ref co-ordinator in Down has been getting threatening phone calls this week as well allegedly and told to stay away from game today."

Thought Gough was reffing this one!

Ref not see the most obvious push in the back from the full back.

Mourne Red · October 15, 2023, 02:24:28 PM

Brian Higgins is pure shite by the looks of things here

The scum are running away with it.

Burren very disappointing. Faffing around on the Kilcoo 45 before eventually misplacing a handpass seems to be the height of their game plan.

Kilcoo a well oiled football machine strong all over the pitch and well able to take their scores. Ryan McAvoy is a colossal full back.

Gaelforce123 · October 15, 2023, 03:02:46 PM

Colossal full back? Pull the other one. A decent full back at club level, yes has had a good first half but dont make him out to be something he isnt because he was a severe weak point for the county team when at full back this year and was exposed time and time again. Good player but dont overdo it

Can't work out how it is a good thing the county manager is still playing against players he managing.
