Not to the extent of Corduff. Could be just rumours but your talking thousands a week on coaches like Rory Gallagher, S&C coach. They are the Chelsea of Club football now.

What about Scotstown and Peter Donnelly?

I totally agree this is a common thing at this stage. The Scotstowns, Ballybays, Clontibrets have been doing this this years. Inniskeen now is big for it also. It is how the game is going.

Great to see we have an "over 40s" selection playing Fermanagh in a charity game this weekend.
What chances we could get a group together for next year's competition?

Yes he is and was last year is well hence why corduff won the intermediate double… says a lot about Banty and the members on corduffs committee….

Taking every training session and managing from behind the dugouts

Yes on €800 a session and S&C on €90k a year so it doesn't compare to scotstown etc. The money been put Into Corduff is way and above the normal. I'm not sorry but how can you employ someone like Rory Gallagher. Banty doesn't care as long as he's winning

Have been wondering this this while. Why has Monaghan no Masters team?

There would be some quality footballers and I am sure many of them would love to get out of the house and at something like this. Probably just needs someone to take it by the scruff and get it going. Be great to see and I am sure they would compete well.

These figures surely aren't right??? Who in their right mind would be paying that kind of coin?! If Gallagher is going there 3-4 times a week he'd be clearing €100-150k a year. And an S&C on €90k also doesn't make sense if they're just doing up a programme. Banty is a shrewd operator and I can't see him throwing that sort of money around...

You'd want to be fair gullible to believe these figures!

I would imagine Gallagher is about 250 a session

I doubt their ladies would put up with that kind of thing if Derry wouldn't
