Correction: There are 8 teams playing senior hurling in Wicklow. That comment goes to show how in tune you are with the hurling scene in Wicklow... A county that has serious potential if the same resources and funding were applied to hurling as football. It wasn't too long ago Wicklow hurlers were rubbing shoulders with Kildare and now they'll be playing in this years Leinster Championship after the investment and development of players was made over the last decade. There's no reason why the same can't be done in Wicklow. You say that Wicklow football is far more ahead but the results say otherwise. The hurlers have achieved promotion and the footballers stay in Division 4 for another year. The club football champions fail to make an impression in the Leinster Club Championship in most years, while the club hurling champions usually give Leinster a decent rattle. It's about time hurling was treated with respect in Wicklow.

Last time I looked, the hurlers were in Division 2, footballers in Division 4. And also the last time I looked, hurlers played a match against a team that they were expected to beat, and did so. sponger (Wicklow) - Posts: 2982 - 23/03/2026 12:39:24 2662495 Link 0 |

These guys would have the guts, bravery, pride and heart to defend an 11 pt lead. Footballers are making a virtue of losing leads when their backs are to the wall.

Croke Park disdain for the lower regions of the hurling leagues ?? Again. I understood that was to be in Croker.
