Very Valid point in fairness,Its not my point at all.
My point is that Eire Og could potentially win a league in say Mid Cork with a senior player piled team which is not a true reflection of their actual Senior squad thus could go to a county league based on that and the likes of Donoghmore who would probably win the majority of other divisional league at there ease may not get the chance to go up to the County league based if they had lost to the likes of Eire Og
Mallow, Rosscarbery and Valleys all are 2nd teams who won the divisional league with probably loaded teams in early season. Does Fock all for development of football really as you point out..
There are 60-70 smaller clubs being neglected by the Cork county board, and most are football orientated in rural areas which possibly explains it.
The lack of meaningful competition will have inevitable consequences
In 20 years time we will have some gurus in suits producing a 5 year Corkness plan to try and get GAA going again in these areas!!
