The tally of wides is concerning. Consistency seems to be the problem with our side. Manager has tried every combination of forward player open to him and it doesn't seem to make any difference. We can with both remaining matches - if we take our chances.

would promotion be even a good idea? best player Healy is on verge of retirement and there is no replacement

You have posed a real conundrum there Heavyheart. I think we should wait until after next Sundays game before we explore that particular topic. If we lose next week, it won't apply.

Has the manager tried every combination? I can't understand why he is so reluctant to give Matthew Ging a go. He played well for Tinahely in the recent senior championship. I'm not saying he is a silver bullet to our scoring problems but I'd like to see him being played. Also, a ball winning full forward is a tactic I'd like to see tried. In relation to Dean Healy and a potential replacement, I think this highlights the problem with players coming through at club level. Dean Healy is a top class player and has been a brilliant servant to the county but it is not a good sign to see no other player stepping up to take on the mantle. Finally, with a young team, I think it is worth being promoted. Players develop by playing against better players and teams. It does nothing for players/team development playing in Division 4. I'd like to see us promoted even if we can't stay in Division 3 next season. The players will benefit us to play for one season in Division 3.

A token word for hurlers from the self apointed chair man

Tbh I wouldn't be writing yourselves off yet. Apart from the wides, there wasn't too much wrong with your performance. You won more primary possession than any of the other counties we played, and that's always a platform to build off. You also carried a bit of a goal threat. Your defence wasnt too bad I think we created more scoring chances in our other games. You need someone to kick 2 pointers for you though. All in all I wouldn't be falling over in shock if you win your next 2 games, especially with the game against Limerick being at home. Hopefully you get a good crowd out to support your team.

I see you and I are under attack again from our friend from the west of the county. Other than taking a playful poke at him, I find he is best ignored. He is a kind of troll who has latched on to you and I, sometimes accusing us of being one and the same. But it takes all kinds. God bless his innocence.

Minor footballers and hurlers starting leinster championship next week. Anyone hear of how our preparation and challenge matches are going? liam500 (Wicklow) - Posts: 192 - 10/03/2025 16:28:55 2595800 Link 0 |
Unfortunately I haven't heard much of the hurlers ( PM will lash me over this) but the footballers are supposed to be pretty decent. Time will tell.

I think Wicklow will beat Tipp but Limerick will be a tough ask.Regardless of promotion it would be nice to see Wicklow finish off the league in style and look forward to the championship with confidence. brayballer (Wicklow) - Posts: 19 - 10/03/2025 17:47:55 2595820 Link 1 |
He likes coming on and winding people up. An odd time he might make some valid points. I didn't read his comments.

If you read them back, they are his usual waffle. Surprised to see him breaking cover really. Normally he only surfaces when someone criticises the Co Board. I think he is close to someone in the inner circle, or possibly in it himself. Anyway, life is too short, or at least mine is, to pay too much attention to his meanderings.
