Down on Noreside, there is only one sport that rules, and it isn't Gaelic football.
Previously senior inter-county hurlers have admitted that they use football as a 'pre' pre-season for their hurling exploits that normally stretch past summer into autumn.

RTE's Damien Tiernan witnessed such an episode last weekend, when he overheard one of the best player-manager queries of all time, after a sideline ball was called.

Damien wasn't willing to name and shame last night, but seeing as there were only four senior club championship games, we're going to just put up the results, and let you decide yourself.
If anyone wants to name and shame, feel free to contact via Snapchat.
