I would imagine the majority of the clubs would be happy enough playing games in East Cork rather than trying to get lads to travel an hour for a football match. Sure Carraig na bhfear won the league last year and had the opportunity to play in the county league but didn’t. Most clubs in the division would make the same decision.Why wouldn't the Imokilly league winners be included?
Let's see what Carrigtwohill or Fr O Neills do. Be no harm to get a gang from West Cork down to Ballymacoda on a Sunday morning for a football match and flip the travel aspect side of itI would imagine the majority of the clubs would be happy enough playing games in East Cork rather than trying to get lads to travel an hour for a football match.

That's incorrect, and the same club got shafted by the East Cork Board when it came to promotion to the hurling league Div 7.I would imagine the majority of the clubs would be happy enough playing games in East Cork rather than trying to get lads to travel an hour for a football match.

But Shur What other junior A clubs are even left in Duhallow? Lyre?????If anything I'd say it would be Duhallow, the clubs there don't seem to have much interest in playing football. Castlemagner look far superior than any of the other clubs in Junior.
That’s fair enough, I only assumed when I saw no east cork team in Div 7 of the football. How were they shafted?That's incorrect, and the same club got shafted by the East Cork Board when it came to promotion to the hurling league Div 7.
Lyre, Kilbrin, and then Lismire have gone up Junior A this year as far as I know, along with Castlemagner who are in the county league obviously, the rest as second teams in Duhallow now.But Shur What other junior A clubs are even left in Duhallow? Lyre?????
Yeah, if a division 8 goes ahead you’d probably be adding 2/3 divisional runners up also to make up numbers (if my maths is right).The county junior champions and the winners of divisional league of the bottom team of league 7 are already promoted to Division 7 next year. So you can add 2 more teams to Div 8
Merge divisions for the league or go 2 county league Division 8s , a North & South.. total of 20 juniors teams added to the county structure and would be better than county wide travel in top divisionsI’d be in favour of it. I’d actually look to merge divisions too then for what’s left in league and have a north, west, south, mid set up similar to rebel og. Divisions are just not fit for purpose any more. I’d probably let them retain their championships, for the time being.
