Large absence of clubs to give Ulster FA a huge fines windfall

While the fines will mean for something of a financial windfall, Ulster Football Association chiefs have expressed their frustration at the high volume of affiliated clubs who did not attend the AGM on Tuesday night.

A whopping 52 clubs were absent from the AGM at the Lake of Shadows Hotel in Buncrana.

Seven of the Inishowen League’s clubs – Aileach, Carrowmeena, Dunree, Glengad, Gleneeyly, QPS and Sea Rovers – did not sign in on the night.

Only six Donegal League clubs did attend with a staggering 31 clubs from the Donegal Junior League marked as absent.

From the Donegal League, just Castlefin Cetlic, Cappry Rovers, Bonagee United, Kildrum Tigers, Lagan Harps and Convoy Arsenal were present.

All seven of the Ulster Senior League’s clubs attended while 13 clubs from the Monaghan-Cavan League did not travel for the meeting.

Clubs are fined €50 for non attendance at the Ulster FA AGM, which should mean a boost of €2,600.
