Absolutely shambolic that Ballyhaise will now play division 2 football next year, Lacken have won one game but that's all they've had to win. IamADragon (Cavan) - Posts: 306 - 25/07/2024 00:20:44 2561383 Link 0 |
There only ever has been the one parish, Tydavnet. Knockatallon and Tydavnet had clubs but could not field teams so the 3 teams almalgamated to make Scotstown in the 60s, 1 parish 1 club, quite simple. In fact Knockatallon only had underage come the 60s but emigration hit hard. The area is very rural. Maybe look into your facts first my man. As for your transfer system jibe, the Monaghan by laws allow players to transfer based on family ties. As for after that, you must live in the parish itself. Tydavnet is not even the biggest parish in Monaghan.

Lacken making a mockery of the division 1 league but a big result for them going into championship i.am.legend (UK) - Posts: 45 - 25/07/2024 08:03:52 2561392 Link 0 |
if ballyhaise were worth their salt they would have beaten Lacken. From 8 points up to a concede 3-7 in the second half and lose, they can have no complaints

That doesn't change the fact that Ballyhaise finished on 9 points and were relegated, Lacken finished on 0 points and stayed up. The concept of a league is to judge a team over the course of a period of games, not a 1 off match.

Those rules are a joke. Killygarry stay in Div2 after being unbeaten, and Lacken stay up after not winning a regular league game. Should be fairly easy to put in place that top go up, bottom go down and work out the playoffs around that Loughduff Lad (Cavan) - Posts: 2423 - 25/07/2024 12:19:54 2561464 Link 0 |
Nonsense, Tom. You've multiple teams and are skewing the landscape in Monaghan gaa. Aren't you discussing on the Monaghan forum the chances of the Scotstown super club winning both Senior and Junior this year. You have the nerve to say that a club the size of Arva competing in Junior, when they amalgamate yearly at underage to compete, often in the lower divisions, is wrong, when your own franchise is putting out about five adult make teams. Your masquerading as 'Tom' is revealing nonetheless. The choice of Cavan Gaels as your fictional club, who themselves have benefitted from players resident in the Cavan parish playing for them, matches perhaps the transfer system Scotstown use to bolster their ranks.

True, they have a habit of throwing away leads. The Ulster Club game last year they were coasting against Cullyhana.
