warming up on the main pitch

From micks view:
Cork City’s manager Tommy Dunne was far from pleasant in the manner in which he insisted on warming up on the front pitch – amusing how our back pitch is good enough for most ordinary mortals. But such is life, different strokes for different folks – we all manage to find different ways of leaving our mark on the planet.

Jesus can't mick get over this already. It in the rules you can warm up there if teams want. He can ask teams can they use the second pitch for the warm up and if they decline and want to use the main pitch then he should just accept it. It reads really petty of him.

teams are entitled to 20 mins on the pitch when a suitable alternative is available. also teams no matter where warming up meant to use side of pitch for speed work fast etc which Cork did not. Most teams just warm up the keppers on the main pitch and the other players on the back pitch.
