Cork Footballers

[JimmyBarrySmurph]

As a delusionally optimistic person even I am finally depressed about what’s happening our football. It’s a systemic problem.
Remember though it’s not the players today’s fault or blame.
I want to wish them all the absolute best of luck today and I hope to god the ball hops right for all of them today. Rebels Abu

Good post. Although, I’m one of the many that think the downfall started once Billy was gone. It’s fair to argue that the 2010 side could have won more with the talent they had, prob the best group for 5 years, and should have won more but CC didn’t deliver, just like the recent 5 year plan.
I think we should be top 5.
Comparing the footballers fortunes directly with hurling isn’t right. With the emergence of the north in the last 35 years, Football is now a true national almost 32 county sport, with nearly 10 teams realistically hoping for Sam. Hurling played in pockets has 10 teams in total with only about half of them in AI contention. We might not realize it her in Cork city and county but hurling isn’t played much at all in half the country.

True enough about CC who was overrated imo JBS.
Hurlers were going nowhere for the guts of 20 years but now they are back in the mix. Why isn't the same mentality there for the football powers that be or is it that they couldn't give a shite in the long run.

Smells like the Down match.

Cork winning and as ll going well - but with the wind.

If any draft or breeze it minimal. Sideline flags fluttering. Nor a wind that could be classed as an advantage

IF we win does it guarantee we will avoid the Tailteann cup?

Cork 1-23 Louth 0-18. Great win, but not safe from demotion to the Tailteann Cup yet.

Hard to figure out this Cork team really given how hot and cold they've blown, but that sounds like a commanding performance.
