Chairman should just get over his grudge with the boro just because he was sacked a few years ago as manager. very petty man who needs to grow up
The mayo league need to stamp out these unauthorised matches of players not signed to any club playing each other on private astro pitches before somebody gets hurt. 3 point deductions for anyone who plays football between October and April I say.
Mayo
Unauthorised
Preseason
Prevention
Enforcement
Team.
If only they had an abbreviation.....
What if these unaffiliated players sign for a club before the season starts ................ does the points deductions follow them???? do we need to inform the ML each time we have a training game where players are unregistered and finally are we supposed to aquire full knowledge of personel employed to oversee astro pitches and other training facilities and assertain their affiliation to all sporting bodies???, wow its almost not worth the bother anymore ... actually scratch that, 2 years ago I decided it wasnt and have had peace of mind since. The lunatics are running the asylum and have been for some time now and everyone just accepts it..... For shame..... for shame
Its all very well giving out about these things but when attempts have been made to highlight and address these problems ,the people/groups involved have received very Little support.Quote:

The rules state that all clubs must inform the Mayo League if they want to play a friendly so they can appoint a referee and so that teams will be covered by the insurance.
All players involved in the match must be registered with the league aswell!
so i dont see what any of the teams involved can be arguing about??
Fair enough then give them a slap on wrists, don't chop their heads off!!!!!.
If players from Mayo are not registered with Clubs or the league, how come they can still compete in external competitions? FAI junior Cup & Connaught Cup. or are u deemed registered until you exit such competitions.
Why should the league be appointing referee's for friendlies anyway. Surely if 2 Clubs agree. But using a banned ref is different. If a player gets injured it would be the Clubs own insurance that covers costs.
Hi lads. Looking for an U17 friendly for Saturday afternoon. We will travel if any clubs available.:D
Maybe I am being over simplistic.
But what is to stop both sides say that this game was just a kick around between two gangs of mates that another mate kindly agreed to referee.
Surely the Mayo League can't fine a club if a kick around occurs on their pitch..??
Badker, players playing in external competitions now are still registered from last season. I don't know the reason as to why the league have to be informed of any friendlies, its just a rule!
That's what I can't get my head around either. Sure, a 90 minute game before the season starts with two teams of 11 and an ref with cards etc, the Mayo League need to be notified.Quote:

I just can't see how anyone can prove this was more than just a training session. That's how we treated it anyway.
We paid for the astro like any group of people would. It's our right as individuals to play a game of football amongst ourselves and I can't see how anyone can stop us. It was Newports 3rd friendly kickabout as I don't see why they should be stopped.
at the end of the day, theres only 1 reason why the punishment was the way it was and its because of 1 man. hes ruining the game in mayo and will completely destroy it if he continues the way he is going. hes taking the fun out of playing football in this county.
this fella has to get over his problem with the boro and move on. h
feel sorry for newport to be dragged into it as well.......
If it was played on the astro in Celtic I dont think the league have a leg to stand on. Firstly its not a insurance issue because celtics insurance covers the astro turf not the Mayo League and secondly the league have no rights over any group of players or someone they ask to ref when they play on a private astro turf. If either team appeals to Connaught on this it will be thrown out.Quote:

So his statement in the connaught yesterday that his decision to sit on the disiplinary committee had no bearing on his involvment in the club is false. Why does he always sit on these committees involving Snugboro?????
Why is he allowed to sit on them as a former member of a club? In a court of law a jury has to 100% neutral. Not in the Mayo league! Why has his outcomes always resulted in Bans and fines??
If you go to the Mayo league website , [SIZE=3][FONT=Times New Roman]John D, Gerry S, Tom M are all listed as the disiplinary committee!!!! There is no mention of Mr Chairman!!!!! So what was he doing on past committees involving Snugboro!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! TOO MANY UNANSWERED QUESTIONS![/FONT][/SIZE] !
I assume this is currently in appeal?
From what I can gather The M.L. have made a bit of a mess of this affair, or are there some facts missing.
Where was the match played?
If this is not appealed more fool the teams who got fined.
It is under appeal as far as I know. Training session was on Celtic Astro for the 60 minutes we booked it for, less the time we spent warming up and for a half time team talk. If I'd known I had to notify the ML every time I had a kickabout, I wouldn't bother.Quote:

Just a pity these bureaucrats have and are destroying the game in this county and I am including the current referees committee in that. Any chance of a asteroid flattening Milebush or is that just wishful thinking.Quote:

The ref who was at the game Newport / Snugboro game was not suspended and is entitled to ref any game at his level (one). He is suspended by the Mayo Ref’s Assoc (trade union). Poor form by the Mayo League who seemed to the run the game to suit themselves and their clubs and against clubs who question them.Quote:

Lets hope that the sheepish clubs reject this,at the moment there is suposed to be 5m space between the goal line and the surounding fence around the pitch olso compulsary,which leves very little space for anothher 5m.Quote:

Is it true that the boro/newport appeal was upheld and now the ML have egg on their face?? Great result if so ML 0 Clubs 1.....
Yes they won appeal, which was great news.Quote:

Next they will ask us to play with a GAA ball.Quote:

i doubt the boro will even get an apology from him, instead he'll be waiting to give us a bigger fine as soon as he can
Sweet Jesus if its not one thing its another. What purpose would this proposal serve??? and I presume any rule would have to be within FAI/UEFA/FIFA guidelines. Glad to hear some sense prevailed on the Boro issue.Quote:

You must assume it's to rule out the Rival arena. Strange one, I thought the Mayo League would be interested in seeing more games played rather than called off? Sometimes it seems they want to bring in new rules just for the sake of it. Almost like someone is trying to build a legacy.
FIFA laws of the games say:
Dimensions The length of the touch line must be greater than the length of the goal line. Length (touch line): minimum 90 m (100 yds) maximum 120 m (130 yds) Width (goal line): minimum 45 m (50 yds) maximum 90 m (100 yds) All lines must be of the same width, which must be not more than 12 cm (5 ins).
ML going for 5m longer each side than the minimum. What are the dimensions of Rival Park? Which other pitches are in danger?
I can understand if clubs are unhappy playing on astroturf and personally I would prefer to play on grass any day. But if this is an attempt to rule the rival arena out while still allowing Milebush to be used then its just a disgrace and an embarrassment to all concerned.Quote:

Heard the Mayo League didn't want to allow any vote on the size of the pitch, but were forced into it by the Celtic Chairperson. Top table not one bit happy. They stated it was not a voting matter and only can be changed by them. They also could not give a valid reason why the decided to change the pitch dimensions. Vote was taken with 26 delegates in favour of the Mayo League reversing the decision on pitch size at their next meeting. We will wait and see.
That is great to hear that the Mayo league is told that its run by the clubs and not by the top table and the clubs stood up to them.Its only last week a different comitee, our club forced them too admit they had brought someting in that an adverse effect last season that they did not have too,not one club supported us at the meeting but a senior club told us when the meeting was over we were right,when questioned why they said nothing at the meeting they said what was the point.Quote:
