National Hurling League 2 Up 2 Down

(Oldest Posts First)

The new hurling league is a great format as it gives more exposure to counties. 2 up and 2 down from each leagues makes it more fluid. I do think the leagues should be Div 1 2 3 4 5 instead of '1B'.

Next years leagues could look like
1A
Cork
Dublin
Galway
Kilkenny
Limerick
Offaly
Tipperary

1B
Carlow
Clare
Down
Laois
Meath
Waterford
Wexford

2
Antrim
Donegal
Kerry
Kildare
London
Westmeath
Wicklow

3
Cavan
Derry
Leitrim
Louth
Mayo
Roscommon
Tyrone

4
Armagh
Fermanagh
Lancashire
Longford
Monaghan
Sligo
Warwickshire

Next years leagues could throw up even more unique matches

It was about time hurling opened up after years of glass ceilings.

Absolutely. And the OP is right, I don't get this 1b xxxx at all. It's div 2.

If naming it 1B is the price to pay for smashing the glass ceiling. So be it.

True. Still childish all the same. It's the National Hurling League. Not Go Games.
