Carlow Senior Football manager Turlough O’Brien says the idea of confining a newly proposed All-Ireland B Championship to Division 4 Teams is totally unjust and poorly thought out.

The motion of a new look B Championship will go before Congress next month which takes place in the Mount Wolseley Hotel in Tullow, but speaking to KCLR earlier, Turlough says that Division 4 Teams are capable of defeating teams higher ranked than themselves.

It’s flawed in its thinking, if they want a secondary competition, the competition should be confined to those beaten in the championship in that particular year.

It shouldn’t be confined to Division 4 teams, because a Division 4 team could be a team higher ranked than themselves.

To condemn just eight Division 4 teams to it is just totally unjust, and I think its very very poorly thought out.

Meanwhile Carlow Footballer Daniel St Ledger has expressed his opposition to the plans.

He’s reported to have said thats they have a blueprint for failure there from the last time there was the Tommy Murphy Cup, that theres no end goal in this proposal and no way back into the qualifiers.

Listen to the interview between KCLR’s Michael O Leary and Turlough O Brien……
