Well done to Kildare for maintaining their underage superiority in Leinster Current minor 2019 & U20 2018 Leinster/All Ireland Champs Hats off. Outstanding. Top work being done. But.. what I can't understand is.. But... we have the funding! How on earth haven't Dublin been able to buy all these titles! It's disgraceful that Kildare are winning all this silverware! How... how on earth is this possible ! jimbodub (Dublin) - Posts: 20600 - 06/07/2019 22:18:48 2206579 Link 3 |

Kerry Grouo...a billion dollar industry...deep rooted in a Kerry village....loyal to it's people.... With billion dollar sponsors like this who needs GAA "financial doping". What's the population of Kerry again? 140K and BILLION DOLLAR Kerry Group backing their single code county competitors. I mean really. As if playing in a hurling province wasn't a big enough advantage. The GAA need to look into this urgently. Anyway how did Kildare minors get on against the financially doped state aided Dubs today? Anyone get the result? I presume that the "blue juggernaut" kept on trucking. Money = success after all.

Don't get your knickers in a twist, im quiet certain Leinster council are just as bewildered as your good self and id say tonight they are utterly sickened that despite all their money pumping into Dublin, Kildare are still competing underage. That and an absolute horrendous display from the officials at todays match (that really makes you wonder) and they still couldnt get Dublin over the line. I fully expect a neutral venue when Dublin reach a final to be done away with in the near future plus a few more tweaks to try and help ye out, so keep the faith, more advantages are coming to ye soon no doubt, no need for panic.

Yes I mean the Leinster Council, packed full of Dubs, must be utterly sickened by Kildare's win today. I mean it stands to reason doesn't it when Leinster is under pressure for being uncompetitive at senior level. Leinster Council wants to see Dublin sweeping up at all levels and at both codes. Good God.

Jimbo, since 2009 Dublin minors have won 5 Leinster titles and 1 All Ireland. Since 2009 Dublin's u20/21s have won 7 Leinster titles and 4 All Irelands . Since 2011 Dublin seniors have won 9 Leinster titles and 6 All Irelands. Note the progress and improvements in terms of titles won as Dublin's players go up the grades. €1.8 million a year which is 13 times what Cork get most certainly contributes to player development. Between 2009 and 2019 Dublin's minor, u20/21 and senior football teams have won 68% of all the Leinster titles and 39% of all the All Ireland titles available to them . That's a massive haul of titles . The funding is working !!!

They are investing a lot of money into Kerry GAA. There are legitimate concerns about Dublin's finances but other counties have lucrative deals. The GAA needs to take a look at sponsorship deals in general.

He's spot on alright. But its easier to blame the dubs for our shortcomings rather than accept the fact how poor we are.

Pile of nonsense and well you know it. How does funding to school children explain the likes of Cluxton, Nolan, Brennan, Fitzsimons, McCarthy, Cullen, Cahill, McMahon, Quinn, Fennell etc I could go on.. A Brogan, B Brogan, Flynn, MDMc, Kev Mc, D Daly, Dennis B, EOG, Connolly.. I've left out plenty The likes of McCaffrey, Rock who's fathers represented Dublin and had it in their DNA I've left out several more... lots of other panel players that played significant parts in the teams whose age profile matches the above players. How on earth does funding to school children explain those lads when the said funding had zero significance in their development! How does it explain Paddy Christie, Pat Gilroy, Mickey Whelan, Mick Deegan, Jason Sherlock, Declan Darcy and Jim Gavin How much would Dublin have won without all those players and management teams that you seem to think GDF to school children is responsible for... lol Pull the other one. Pure ignorance on your part. Very easy sound bites with as much depth as saying "Dublin have 1.3 million people to pick from" Dublin's success has very little to do with GDF to school children. An inconvenient truth I know but it's all there in black and white. GDF has done sod all in the last couple of seasons to our underage teams. The success before that had Jim Gavin at the helm. It's no use unless you have the talent. You can't coach a donkey into being a race horse. jimbodub (Dublin) - Posts: 20600 - 07/07/2019 13:29:43 2206966 Link 7 |
I agree. Lots of teams are beaten by the Dubs, even before they step out on the field. A team that has fear will be demolished . Jim Mcguinness and Donegal back in 2014, had the correct mindset.It is extremely difficult to beat Dubs now, as Jim Gavin has them well grounded, but the gap is closing.
