I dont know the ins and outs of the rules but it seems rathkeale played a player who is signed with the b team and this is illeagal. Abbey lodged an objection and win it, if this is the rule its simple, abbey go through and rathkeale are out. even tough its harsh id imagine the rule SHOULD be if he didnt play desmond cup with the B team it should be ok to play with the A team, but for some reason this rule exists, sour grapes from abbey too id say, as they were beat by an understrength rathkeale side and objecting because they had a B team player on the pitch.
lets get this sorted once and for all abbey cant get to the semi as there letter sent to the desmond league was thrown out due to there being no objection and the fact that they made a few mistakes in typing it up the desmond league threw it out. also they lost the game 1-0. now for rathkeale's part in all this no information on b team to a team was never sent to rathkeale and also never sent to at least 16 more teams involved in desmond cup. desmond league actually have no grounds to throw rathkeale out as this rule doesnt exist its a mistake by desmond league its not in any rule book, munster rules and fai rules state that as long as a player is registered and isnt cup tied he is entitled to play these rules over shadow desmond league rules, now thats what i was told this morning anywayQuote:

id say rathkeale wont win the appeal so waste of time really. abbey should get the right to play ballingarry in the semi final cause its not right to put a team into a big cup final on a bye
Just heard there and apparently this was confirmed by a member of the Abbey committee also, that Abbey played a registered B team player during the mentioned game against Rathkeale & that's one of the reasons they are also being thrown out of the competition by the Desmond League.
This thing gets more complicated by the day!Quote:

confirmed both teams have been thrown out; but they can appeal so this could go on for a while !
Reading this is all very confusing.
Gonna wait for something official before commenting.

great result for rovers tonight.. knockaderrys pitch seems to be doing the tricks for rovers.played 3 there and won 3.. relegation is going to go down to the final games i think
Glin ...............P17 Pts15
Kileaney .........P16 Pts13
NCW Rovers.....P17 Pts13
Glin: Broadford (H), Kileaney: NCW (A), Abbey (H), Rovers: Ballingarry (A).
Call it...
it depends on what teams turn up against the 3 teams. if all turn up the points should stay the same but what kind of broadford team will travel when they have nothing to play for.will newcastle give fringe players a run against kileaney and abbey with nothing to play for if they are definately out of cup. will ballingarry have hurling even though they will want to keep momentum for cup final. i think kileaney and rovers are going to find it hard though.
I cant see Killeaney getting anything against NCW on Friday night.
The final game for each of the teams is winnable.
I'm gonna go for each of the 3 teams to win their final game and Glin to stay up.
Fair to play to each team for giving it a right go and not throwing the towel in
best of luck to ncw rovers,killeaney and glin rovers this weekend..
is the newcastle game on tonight????????
Any update on NCW v Killeaney?
heard ncw beat killeaney 2-1 and rathkeale beat ballingarry on penalties in the league cup semi final
Newcastle came from 0-1 down to beat Killeaney 2-1 tonight. I think Seoirse Joyce scored the 2 Newcastle goals. Also heard Rathkeale beat Ballingarry on Pens in the League Cup semi final.
Looks like we're going to have a 'Relegation Super Sunday' this weekend :p .
N.C.W Rovers probably have the toughest match, away to Ballingarry who are still in the Desmond Cup. The other 2 teams are at home but hopefully all teams play full strength sides...:eek:
Glin Rovers V Broadford Utd (Draw) 1-1
Killeaney V Abbeyfeale Utd (Home) 3-1
Ballingarry V Newcastle West Rovers (Away) 1-2
What happens if Glin draw and Rovers & Killeaney win??
I think there would be a play off in Clounreask?
3 way play off lads killeaney and rovers won and glin drew. you couldn't write it.
glin 1-1 broadford
ballingarry 0-1 ncw rovers
killeaney 2-0 abbeyfeale
broadford went 1-0 up through shaka and glin levelled through dolly. glin should have been 3-0 up but 2 off the line clearances by john kelliher kept broadford in it. gary culhane was outstanding in defence for glin... ballingarry missed a penalty against rovers so rovers can count themselves lucky to still be in the 3 way playoff
division 1 playoff championship..athea utd 2-2 rockhill rovers.. athea win on pens
were you at the broadford game fanatic? were they down lads because of the stag.
ya was at the glin vs broadford game this morning.broadford had most of the ball but glin had the better chances.broadford had a great break 2minutes before full time but drove the ball wide.broadford had 11 players and no subs but tossie butler was taken off and jim neenan togged out and replaced him at half time. dont know why broadford were short numbers.
Anyone know what the story is with the Desmond Cup Final ? No mention of it in the final set of fixtures.
id say abbeyfeale or rathkeale are appealing it so its gonna be a while before its being played i think
What do people think of the Prem relegation play-offs being played in Clounreask?
Is there really any need? Surely they could have played one home game each.
How is it working snafu? A round robin where they each play 2 games?!Quote:
