Romour has it Callum Brown playing for Limavady this weekend

Apparently thats definitely true although the lad that told me also said that Gormley starting corner forward for Glen, and Barton CHF for Newbridge and that might be true.

With just the u16 football finals to play and no venues up yet, I've noticed alot of the underage finals have been on the back pitches at Owenbeg, I dont think theyre appropriate for such a big occasion for the kids and their families. Pitches in awful condition, poor floodlights and no dugouts. Plenty of good club grounds which could have been used which is usually the case

Might as well have a guess at weekend games
Glen v Magherafelt        Glen - AET -1
Newbridge v Slaughtneil    S'Neil  - 2

Foreglen v Limavady        Limavady - 3
Greenlough v Glenullin    Greenlough - 4

Moneymore v Doire Trasna  Moneymore -5
Slaughtmanus v Glack    Slughtmanus -2

I would agree on the back pitches at Owenbeg - the lack of dugouts is very strange, it was noticeable at Feile with players sitting along the sideline, making it look a bit amateur. I would think venues will be fixed after tonight as potential for Ballinascreen to be in 2 finals so might be waiting for that.

The back pitches are the ones closest to the A6.
Pitch 1 running parallel to the stadium pitch which is the same size, good lights will surely be the pitch that's used... It's the one that has been used up until now when not using the stadium pitch

Yes that t is the one I am talking about,

[JoG2]

Good pitch, both ball catchers up too.

[GTP]

Are the back pitches nearest the A6 for Derry City FC?
Pitch 1 may be a good pitch, but it would be better for matches with dugouts provided. All my time spent as a sub means I am sympathetic to the extended panel being left with no shelter.

[Newbridge Exile]

Good pitch, both ball catchers up too.

Agree with you 100% on that but it's not asking too much to have dugouts for championship final /semi final underage games I think

Agreed, the wee benches don't cut the mustard, especially this time of the year
