Getting the b****x frozen off you for four months of the season kind of outweighs a lot of the winter pros.
on relity though it is best pitches hold up better and allows for more football rather than hoofing:ball:
Ballybofey in July v Ballybofey in January? No contest. Anyone who wants a return to a winter season is either a masochist or an idiot.
dont be worrying the all ireland league will have us back with winter football in no time!!!

Well there's very little difference . We still get frozen on dark nights in March, October and November, even with so-called summer soccer. If your team is unfortunate enough to make the Cup Final you get your buns frozen off you in December. And there is little to choose with the climate cause it piddles with rain most of the summer here anyway. I prefer watching football in May, June and July to watching it in December , January and February. All the other months were played in the winter season anyway, so that's ostensibly the only difference , three months.

You have to spread them out amongst the other NUI though, unlike us good folk in Trinity. ;)Quote:

Or at the end of the CUP competition......Quote:
