Hey now, taking a slagging is one of the fundamental principles of our club! :)Quote:

Ya MjC at thr weekend, will that game be on the new field?
ya i know the facilities down there and i remember the pitch being at the front of the hurling pitch, lovely clubhouse thereQuote:

Decent website in fairness, progressive club on and off the field, a few headbangers involved, but every club has a few........... :)Quote:

I don't think so, had to put some drainage in at the start of the summer and still waiting for it to kick in.Quote:

Well personally I'm of the opinion of fewer clubs in North Tipp with better facilities. I think its the only way that clubs will be able to challenge Nenagh.
Re ground-sharing - this is my personal opinion rather than the clubs but Id be a strong supporter of it. Would be nice to at least explore the idea - particulary if ye are serious about buying a field. Lots of different options.
i think you might be on to something there but i dont know how many clubs would be interested in sharing, to be fair there is a huge pool of players to choose form in nenagh, both us and town have 3 junior teams and id say if you counted the amount of players form nenagh playing with other clubs id say you could have another couple of teams, in fairness thats hard to compete with and that is reflected in how long the premier division has been in nenagh, i think its 12 years since a team form outside nenagh have won it, i think a prime example of this is borroway and thurles celtic sharing the same field but 2 different clubs surely if they joined together they would be a strong enough outfit but then again i dont know the ins and outs of what goes on down thereQuote:

Regarding club amalgamation you might be right. It would certanly make for a more competetive league with better facilities.
I can envisage alot of promlems with in fighting though.
i.e where facilities are built, more players playing from one side vs the other etc, etc
It would take some time for the 2 clubs to realy become 1.
