That’s a terrible article. You can’t build a house in rural Ireland so the rural clubs are suffering but the two biggest clubs in the biggest town in Kerry have been relegated and the house prices in big towns are a terror. Can any club survive?

The issue in Tralee is you have 4 clubs in one town, now I know every kid in Kerry will play football underage but still no comparison anywhere else in Ireland… on a side note if done properly st Brendan’s could rattle east Kerry next year
Fossa winning the intermediate final coming up is the biggest threat to East Kerry next year.
Was it 18 in a row Crossmaglen did? Could have sworn that was before split season. Corofin 18 in 25 years aswell
You can continue pissing into the wind all you like.
Cross only did 13 in a row
Was that all?
They did a 6 in a row too now that you ask

Mad to think Scotstown backboned by seven Monaghan regulars (Beggan/McCarthy/Hughes x2, O’Toole/McCarron/Carey who ran Dublin close for 60 minutes could be 9/4 outsiders on Sunday yet here we are.
Similarly Na Piarsaigh backboned by their multi-All Stars are 9/4 Sunday week.
9/4 is an absolutely iconic price as per The Viper so it will be interesting to note if one of them can spring a surprise.

Great to see them doing this, they’re dead fucking right to too
A great bunch of lads, I hope they ride roughshod over Offaly for a few years and be another Rosenborg

It’ll be very hard for them to manage both without making a balls up of it.
While its great to have a strong second team, it needs to know its place too.
Thurles Sarsfields haven’t won a Senior Championship in Tipperary since they started trying to win the Senior/Inter/Prem Inter double every year. Ballygunner have the advantage that there is a clear dividing line between their teams - if you are a Mahony/Sullivan/Hutchinson or O’Keefe you play first team, if you aren’t then good luck with the second team.
Clubs with embarrassment of riches like Corofin in Galway never really made much traction with their second team for all their talent.

As I said, they should do it to say they did it. Many of these will also know their place. Plenty of those minor teams have yet to make they breakthrough. However there’s no point having good lads tied up with the second team and then having a run of injuries with the main team.
Do it once to say you did it.
Demand for tickets must be gone through the roof for this one

You seem very put out by them giving you home advantage this year…
This’ll be a cracker tonight.
Trillick looking to be the first club from Tyrone to win an Ulster championship game since Killyclogher beating the Antrim champions in 2016. I saw Crossmaglen in the Armagh championship earlier this year and they look like a team who will leak goals but might take a better outfit than the Tyrone champions to exploit that.

Very careless to have the Sinn Fein Ard Fheis clashing with Crossmaglen Rangers opening game in this years Ulster Club Football Championship.
