582439 Dell's home club Urnai in Tyrone have a young lad Fergal McNulty playing for Donegal, but Derry have been taking Tyrone players like Enda Muldoon, Conleith Gilligan, Niall McCusker, Colin Devlin, Michael McIver and James Conway for years.

Do those lads not play for Ballinderry who play in the Derry leagues? I fail to see the problem?

bendan from lucan sarsfields(dublin) is down playing in leitrim
nesty smith from plunketts is with cavan
john and niall coughlan declared for offaly a few weeks ago, jphn is very good was midfield for dublin minors when they got to the all ireland final in 03, he is still one of the best midfielders in dublin club football.

fair play to the lads if they want to play at the top level and the only way to do it to declare for another county

582731 is Tom Parsons a sligo man think he is just on the mayo border but as far as i no he was born and lived in sligo most of his life. Up for correction on this though !!


No that is just Sligo propaganda. He straddles the border, in fact his bedroom is on the Mayo side, hence him being a Mayo man.

Fair play to them indeed. It's funny how things have gone full circle regarding Dublin football... I'm trying to think of the last non Dub to have played for Dublin? Tommy Carr maybe?

It must have been some battle to get planning permission for that house.

Dell, Do you's have many Donegal men playing for Urney? They reckon it was deadly in the 70's and 80's before proper teamsheets were created. You often hear the oul people talking about it round our way....


It was bad in the 70s and 80s alright i hear taking turns of playing for castlefin one week and urney the next .
