Replying To Farneyarmy2013:  "Watched the Sean's Drumhowan game on clubber. Sean's were very poor. Drumhowan missed a load of chances and ran out 12 point winners.

Young Tom Doherty is some footballer. Must of scored 10 +. They are unbeaten all year and I can't see anyone stopping them."
Tom still under 20 next year or another player the manager has turned off county football?

Replying To Matchwatcher:  "Absolutely correct. It's the incompetence of the Monaghan governing body that is really being highlighted. Loopholes in transfer regulations, unaware of what rules actually apply to Junior championship....
No 2nd teams should be allowed in the Senior, Intermediate or Junior championships. Reserve league and championship is where these players who cant make the club's first 15 should be playing.They are reserve players. One club, one championship team. Let the smaller clubs have their chance for a bit of glory. As I've said before, it would be like Manchester City being allowed to put a "Junior team " into League 2 and boys moving between the first and second teams a la Scotstown and Truagh.
Fair play to Killeevan. They're showing a bit of fight for the junior clubs.
Other games will be won by:
Junior
Drumhowan
Oram
Scotstown ABC team
Senior
Inniskeen
Carrick
Latton
Magheracloone"
Terrible attitude towards the sport here.
By your logic there'd be 20-30 players from some clubs that should resign to the fact that if they can't make a senior team they'll have to choose another sport.
Here I was thinking the game was about more than just "a bit of glory". Any wonder teams can't hold onto players with attitudes like this is a club.

Inniskeen put the blayney to the sword, blayney can be happy with their year in senior and their alot going for them in the next 10 years. Seriously two things about that game, is there any better venues than Ballybay for a game like that. Also inniskeen having to play scotstown again is a farce in a semi final. Who won the change the jersey toss? Would have taught both teams would have swapped. What's the update on junior championship and manager ?

Malones missed goal was a turning point. Inniskeen are so so poor.

Inniskeen are 'so so poor' and yet they comfortably beat blayney without ever really kicking into gear. They are still pretty comfortably the second best team in the county behind scotstown. Inniskeen need s.jones to be fit and players like c.jones, o Connor, kindlon etc to step it up. Expect them to give scotstown a good rattle next weekend!

2 very poor 1/4 finals.
I expect the 3weeks on the trot to reflect a 10+ point Scotsown win, 4-6 point Clontibret win.

Inniskeen will give us our toughest test of the year so far and will be amped up to the max for this game. Extremely worried if they finally manage to get out in front us and are able to hold on. May the best team win and hopefully our championship displays a quality game on the TG4 cameras. Scotstown by 1 AET and Truagh by 4 my predictions.

Players don't want him. Similar to GB situation co board just haven't told him that yet,

So is McEntee the new manager then ? Vinny got it after being involved with previous set up. GB the same but if it gets given to mcentee (after GB brought him in) presumably to prep Dermot Malone to take over next year then its a right old shafting of GB.

Why not give it to Malone now. Done a good job with minors and was over Blayney this year

Will the junior championship be delayed a week with one quarter final still to be played based on that appeal? Aghabog the real losers in all of that.
