Play in the christy ring. What chance to fermanagh donegal tyrone and armagh have. I like to see maybe a east/west team. All star of ulster type thing. I know the logistics would be tough but would be great to have DoireCityFC (Derry) - Posts: 1580 - 19/08/2015 12:45:03 1772455 Link 0 |

Difference with the railway cup team is they play other provinces. How many counties would our railway cup team beat if training together as a team all year rather than a few weeks DoireCityFC (Derry) - Posts: 1580 - 19/08/2015 13:21:33 1772487 Link 0 |
There is nothing wrong with the current Ulster club Championship. Currently there is Junior, intermediate and senior that give access to all levels like the other provinces. They then join the all Ireland serious and have done quiet well over recent years. donkeykong (Fermanagh) - Posts: 147 - 19/08/2015 13:29:59 1772493 Link 0 |

A question for Antrim people, is the current system of Antrim playing in the Leinster championship doing the county or the game up there any good, would the old system of the Ulster champ winners qualifying for the knockout stages of the All Ireland be any better, maybe the winners could enter quarterfinals or should we all go back to the old provincial champ and leave out the Liam McCarthy teams, either play it alongside the current Christy Ring, Nicky Rickard, Lory Meaghar cups or replace them, those champ finish too early in the year, I mean where are those county players at the moment? Playing with their clubs while Galway, Kilkenny, Tipp etc are playing their hearts out in Croke Park riverboys (Mayo) - Posts: 1389 - 19/08/2015 14:35:29 1772555 Link 0 |

" you'd be lucky to get a full panel of players to turn up for training consistently in their own county but to travel to the other side of the province? forget about it. It would be a waste of time and like the railway cup teams it would have no following because nobody feels that sense of identity with a province the way they feel about their county.

If there is a better way for ulster teams to compete and get a few thousand at a game im all ears. People on this forum rarely come up with ideas but instead just say other people ideas wont work. very negative attitude in my opinion DoireCityFC (Derry) - Posts: 1580 - 19/08/2015 15:26:47 1772611 Link 0 |

Would the Fermanagh rep not play in the intermediate championship...? They'd get utterly trounced by the Derry or Down champions if they were in the senior. CastleBravo (Meath) - Posts: 1642 - 19/08/2015 16:14:56 1772658 Link 0 |
The Fermanagh champions won the Ulster Junior and Intermediate therefore have been in the senior the past few years and only lost 2-17 to 1-11 against the Down champions Portaferry last winter. geoff (Tyrone) - Posts: 377 - 19/08/2015 16:20:38 1772664 Link 0 |

Seems the year before that they got beaten 4-18 to 0-7 to the Derry champs. Do they play any matches in Fermanagh or do they get no games till october? CastleBravo (Meath) - Posts: 1642 - 19/08/2015 16:32:29 1772678 Link 0 |
