    Couldn't agree more. I strongly feel the league goes on far too long. Everyone loses interest near the end, players , management, supporters.

    Do you seriously think the average gaa person in carlow or tipperary knows about the players in the armagh or down championships ? Or vice versa?

    Strange to have a go at someone for that. Most people are into their own co championship and maybe 1 or 2 neighbouring counties.

    Oh, come on. Do I really have to spell things out for you to this degree?

    The other poster said Spillane and Cahill et al wouldn't know about the likes of Carlow football or Laois hurling. And he was right. But as you point out, not many outside a county itself would be fully familiar with that county's championships anyway. In fairness, it was too harsh a stick to beat them with.

    But the point is that you misinterpreted this as the other poster saying that Spillane and Cahill know nothing about clubs at all. That's where you were wrong, and where you remain wrong.

    For the record in my experience Bellew is one of the most universally popular County Board figures we've ever had in Galway.

    The Saturday night county final was something that drew some criticism alright but a relatively minor thing, you'll always have disagreements over something. Even so I think majority had no issue with it, I certainly didn't.
