Replying To Overtheblackspot89:  "What is going on with clubbers fixtures this week, no disrespect but who wants to watch Monaghan harps v Dohamlet and we won't talk about the senior games on this weekend shocking to say the least"
Couldn't agree more, unbelievable.

Couldn't agree more, no disrespect to Junior/Intermediate teams but Senior games should be shown every week by default and if there is room after that squeeze in a junior/intermediate game. We should be showcasing the best games we have to offer.

It's each individual club decision if they want to host clubber or not. County board don't have exclusive rights until the knockout stages.
A lot of clubs going against it as it will take away from their gate. The majority of which is going to the county board anyway after they have imposed a fee on clubs with the excuse they are losing money from Home/Away championship structure

Strong words from Gary Larkin on the podcast. The question probably needs to be asked, with nobody touching Scotstown again this year, are we in a bad place? So many teams have regressed this last 10 years, town and villages

Such a sob story. If you can't beat the Scotstown 4/5th you have no business in intermediate.

Great performance from the faughs today dominate throughout, clontibret is lacking up front with quite a few missing from the last day

They'll be ready now for the relegation playoff. Back to intermediate soon. According to the pundits on here anyway

Think you need to get the narrative out of your head that Scotstown Junior team is bad, they have Cian Mohan who's playing well in replacement of Rory beggan, but the guy who's replaced him at the moment won a kicking event for leader kicking and has impressed,
They have Jack mohan who's an unbelievable footballer and started in their first round championship game v blayney this year In corner forward, they've around 7 lads who were county 20s or minors in last 5 years starting for them. They also have lads who's won 7 county championships starting for them. They no bad team at all especially since they can field whoever they like!
Fair play to them but I don't understand this narrative that Scotstown juniors are a bad team as their lads are training with the A team and u can only improve in that set up and being around it and consuming that information

Well then it's not a retirement home as it was described if these teams are that good and are beating others in junior, it should be making the other junior teams better
