Childish is being kind to them.
Its unbelievable the amount of shite that has been written.
For league games fixtures are in the paper a few days in advance or emailed out.
The championship fixtures are 8-9 days in advance.

I can just imagine Mr Trump's speech to become president of the GAA.
"Well folks, it's time to make the GAA great again. The first thing I'm gonna do when I become president is build a wall, and its going to be a beautiful wall. I'm going to build a beautiful wall around Park O Keeffe and, I'm gonna make the FAI pay for it!"

I might incur the wrath of Rufus with this but surely the fixtures committee or ccc or whoever could have, while taking the time to get the fixtures right, looked at scheduling games so neighbouring teams could attend.

For example Maghery v Annaghmore is a local parish derby that plenty of people in Collegelands, Clonmore, Ballyhegan etc... would pay in to watch but despite having 4 days Fri-Mon available for games all the above teams play at the same time.

The gate could easily have been 20-30% higher. I thought that maybe the county treasurer doesn’t care as the gate goes to the clubs but then I was told the county gets 85% of the gate at these group games. I am happy to be corrected on that but it seems unfair to the home club to take the expense of the game for 15% of the gate.

I think Annaghmore, Maghery and Collegeland are all in the Loughgall parish. Something tells me Clonmore are in the Dungannon parish, for some reason.

I could be wrong, but Ballyhegan in Stonebridge parish. Is there any other teams in that parish?
