Theres a guy in Ballydesmond called Niall Fleming that plays Kerry Juniors even though the club plays in Cork a part of the parish is in Kerry. The rules should be simple if your within the county bounds you shoulld play with the county you live in.

Tom Parsons plays for Mayo because he is from Charlestown and Charlestown is in County Mayo.

this type of thing is widespread...in meath here there is a promising young minor who has played all of his underage with ashbourne but lined out for dublin because his father played for dublin..now where do loyalitys lie there. i say fair play to tom he's playing for the county he has always played in and that should be the end of it

Tom Parsons, What ever happened to him? is he still playing Gaelic football?

Anyways I wish all the Mayo men playing for Sligo today the best of luck in the first outing for the FBD league.

Could not think of that fella's name. Thanks for that. Donncha O Connor's father wears a Kerry jersey when his own son plays against them. Donncha is a Cork supporter (well I hope he is)
