Just to add that on Sunday Mourneabbey play Carnacon in the Senior lades football final which is live on TG4 at 3:45

Intermediate final will be streamed on TG4's youtube channel

The White Feather · 01-12-2017 10:03pm

So will it be 5 out of 5 for Cork clubs or none at all? I would not know much about the club scene so I shall ask the experts in the know on here to decide!

pakie ed · 01-12-2017 10:47pm

My club put a plan in for funding for last February's deadline. We got news last Thursday. What a insult, we recived a sum which comes to 16% of the total cost. We were hoping to put in 35% funding with our savings plus bank loans. It a joke. The papers were full of the story of 1700 clubs being granted funds for development. We would bankcrup our club if we tried to take on this project. What a waste of time.

zetecescort · 02-12-2017 4:32pm

Aghada 2-6 Corduff 0-3 FT.

Kanturk 2-17 Kilburn 2-8 Ft

ShamoBuc · 02-12-2017 4:53pm

Welcome to the sports capital grants. They cant please everyone.

big_drive · 02-12-2017 6:54pm

I’d have to say my own club have benefited well out of the sports grants over the past 10-15 years with a number of different projects and never had an issue
If you didn’t get what you were looking for there’s usually a very straight forward reason

Kinsale v Dunboyne.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lvAiBaWJLxg

Kinsale lead 1-4 to 1-1 after going 1-1 to 0-0 behind early on

zetecescort · 03-12-2017 3:20pm

2-7 each at HT

zetecescort · 03-12-2017 4:08pm

Kinsale beaten by 1 point. No. 14 for Dunboyne did all the damage

zetecescort · 03-12-2017 4:38pm

Knocknagree 0-4 Dromid 1-1 20min

She sure did. Not sure how Orla didn't get a free with 30 seconds to go though, they were hanging off her.

zetecescort · 03-12-2017 5:15pm

Carnacon 3 up at HT and had 7 wides. Doireann OSullivan hit the post with a great effort on goal

Knocknagree 0-10 Dromid 2-4 45min

ShamoBuc · 03-12-2017 5:20pm

Doireann was very unfortunate with that goal attempt. They haven't really got going. Cora is causing problems as is Downing.

zetecescort · 03-12-2017 5:34pm

Mourneabbey under massive pressure on their own kickouts

zetecescort · 03-12-2017 5:37pm

Knocknagree 013 Dromid 2-7 FT. Extra time to follow

ShamoBuc · 03-12-2017 5:44pm

They are a little sloppy with their passing but clearly the better team are winning.

ShamoBuc · 03-12-2017 5:45pm

If they drop another shot into the keepers hands!!

zetecescort · 03-12-2017 5:50pm

Hopefully make somwthing of the sinbin period

ShamoBuc · 03-12-2017 5:52pm

Get in, 12 mins left 3 points in it

zetecescort · 03-12-2017 6:04pm

Knocknagree 1 up at HT in ET.

Hope they do but this will be robbery if Mourneabbey sneak this

Sounds like a brilliant game Dromid kept going 1 point up and Knocknagree kept bringing it back.

zetecescort · 03-12-2017 6:09pm

Better team won, worked hard to bring it back to 2 points but gave themselves too much to do going 6 or 7 down after half time

ShamoBuc · 03-12-2017 6:10pm

Better side won. A real pity that goal didn't go in the first half.

zetecescort · 03-12-2017 6:11pm

Knocknagree gone 3 up, 74 min

Seadin · 03-12-2017 6:26pm

Great win by Knocknagree and history made by the club. They have finally ended Kerry dominance over Cork clubs for the last 10 years at this level.

ShamoBuc · 03-12-2017 6:28pm

Fantastic win !! I was sick of seeing Kerry teams win. Delighted for them!!

Over budget as expected, premium ticket prices to be restructured. Debt expected to be cleared in 2 years which in itself is being very optimistic.

zetecescort · 04-12-2017 8:49pm

read the piece about the stadium board of directors and looking for outside people like John Mullins and Michael O'Flynn yet Lane, Kennedy(fair enough, incoming chair) , Christy Cooney, Bob Ryan and the two Murphys, Frank and Pearse will all be on the board.

So much for new people.

Lane also said Frank is retiring December 2018

The White Feather · 07-12-2017 8:22pm

John Meyler has confirmed that last years captain Stephen McDonnell won't be a part of next years plans. McDonnell is taking time out in 2018.

Meyler said Gary Keegan, the high performance expert will be involved again though.

The_Kew_Tour · 07-12-2017 9:46pm

kinda hope this year was not a flash in the pan

0byme75341jo28 · 08-12-2017 12:45am

I wouldn't have thought McDonnell was irreplaceable.. Have we anyone of the same standard?

pakie ed · 09-12-2017 1:05pm

Stephen McD has been a stand out servent for club and county for last 7 or 8 year's. Midelton Cillian Burke should be the player,but heard he is going travelling.

zetecescort · 09-12-2017 1:56pm

I rate him much more highly as a footballer. Must be desperate to find a replacement for McDonnell...

Perhaps not as a starter, we play 4 out of 5 weekends in Munster next year so a big squad needed.
