I was at an intermediate final where Delaneys beat Carrigtwohill, after a replay I’m sure. 2001? The Egans played that year, three of them
They still field two adult teams in both codes as far as I know,
Delanys are a grand club but with they were always relying on a few families, that 90s team had John O’Driscoll at full back, played championship for Cork, but with a club like the Glen on your doorstep you’ll always lose a portion of your best, but they have a decent underage structure

Good question, too many golden boys left hold on for too long is one part of the reason
Dopey county board, dinosaurs
Chop change chop change management
These are but a few in my estimation, of course I might be a million miles away
You are right, about 8 years later than they should have won it.

There’s talent there without doubt watched a rake of matches mostly intermediate/ challenge’s up to this crap , even on wet shite nights creams comes to the top, but there’s chasms of difference in done matches do definitely we’re in a not too good a place
Feck who’d be a GAA ref
City teams are gone miles back. Glen the best and their average. Pairsaigh looked promising but have made no impact. Barrs, rockies extremely mediocre.

well fielding 2 teams in both codes suggests they not as banjaxed as set out above
I played as a guest for Redmonds in hurling once!
No Patrick Horgan in Martin Breheny’s top 20 Cork hurlers of the last 50 years. 
I see the cork hurlers not happy with playing a few championship games for their clubs in August. As far as I know cork not out in championship until October 24th. Talk about turning the genuine gaa supporter against them. Unbelievably bad move on their part.
Madness or bias
On my part or the players part?
