Possibly a bit of an over-exaggeration there, but to a certain extent what you say is true.
Some massive ego's floating around that bunch of lads.
St. Vincents club is very strong at the moment and they are competing at the top end of all the underage championships.
But with the exception of an U-12 crown captured in 2002, I think thats all the club has won in the A-grade. Of course the U-14's won the Feile this year too. With so little silverware gathered in this time since the club was formed (2000), you have to wonder what created such ego's in some of these players. Is it their appearance on county teams so that has created this?
Edenderry deserved their victory last weekend I thought. Vincents had a lot of the ball & kicked some silly wides, but thats the difference between winning & losing.
Vincents football is killing the Daingean parish teams imho. I think the senior (in age) clubs would be better off with their own underage setups playing even if it meant playing at a lower level

How could this work and not one team in the parish able to supply a full team for any age group! Daingean had nobody representing the starting 15 for the minor team this year!
