Joe McDonagh Promotion/Relegation

(Oldest Posts First)

This may have been discussed already, but does anyone here know how promotion/relegation between the Joe McDonagh and provincial championships works this year?

From what I've gathered, there's going to be no relegation from the McDonagh cup this year, apparently this years Christy Ring winners are going to be promoted to make it a 6 team competition next year.
But will this years Joe McDonagh winners be promoted to the Leinster championship for 2021? I know there was a motion earlier in the year to have the Leinster championship be 6 teams, but wasn't sure if it was passed

Christy Ring finalists go up to JMcD.

I think it's MacDonagh. Cup winners go up to make 6 in Leinster unless it's Kerry who playoff.

Which is unfair to Kerry btw.

No relegation from Macdonagh and Ring winners come up to make 6 next year.

Kerry actually go into Leinster this year if they win.

I'm not sure I've ever seen a "promote more teams" motion fail to pass in congress, unless it's in competition with other motions to promote more teams.
