Lads with midweek games etc. when were the oscar traynor panel ment to train properly with all players available. Even if you had a free evening players always get knocks, niggly injuries and would be sitting out training. its the quater final so why not give them every chance to prepare properly to win the game. whats more important winning the O.T or finishing a league on time? Also with the game on astro turf it was probobly felt that a few extra sessions were needed on that surface...........
[QUOTE=smellyfeet;663221]Your right it is ridiculous but this is The Clare League we are talking about and we shouldn't be surprised, because after all there was a fixture BACKLOG
and no games could be called off as the league would end up going on far too long.What about the BACKLOG now,its OK now for the league to finish late is it.
I wonder what decisions the other League that are still involved have made
in regards to their own League fixtures,did they call off their own League??Don't think so,just getting on with it as NORMAL. Its a crazy idea and i'd love to know who came up with the idea???????
/QUOTE]
The clare league have seriously underestimated the amount of people they have ****ed off with this stupid decision. They are basically taking the **** out of the hundreds of lads who turn out each week to enjoy a game of football so that they can wrap a few players in cotton wool for a competition that nobody really cares about that much. Its a joke and any goodwill there was for the clare team has been killed off. If they get beaten they will all look like even bigger idiots. I'm sure the players involved would rather play league games and be sharper when this match is played. Mad, mad decision:mad:
what a load of! this has to be the most retarded decision all year by the league...the club teams should be number 1 priority not the oscar traynor team,they are the most important, without the clubs in the leagues there is no county team at all.playing for your club is much more important than oscar traynor cup...
So now there wont be premier div games for at least 3 weeks...this is crazy...
The team theyre playin AFL arent callin off their league games...they are playin midweek and weekends right up til the oscar traynor match on the 21st at 4pm.they are even playing premier division games on the monday 16th.
what next from the clare league???
Maybe i'm wrong but it looks like you and the Clare League are on you own with this decision, as Papa-J said, there are hundreds of people that this is going to affect and it is not on at all. As i said already about the "FIXTURE BACKLOG" does all this change??????.
If i am correct,Olympic HAD to play a game when they asked for their fixture to be changed but NO they had to play it. What about Paddy's weekend when
most clubs would have enjoyed a free weekend, NO games had to be played because of this FIXTURE BACKLOG....what aload of
By all means give your opinions but the language filter is there for a reason,
its not a free-for-all.I don't have the time to edit every second post any more..
Next time the post will be deleted not edited.
i'm sure a few preimer teams are more worried about finishing league in time.. after all this decision by clare league could cost teams chances of winning league or even staying up.. so i would bet most would prefer to finish league... oscar panel never had any time to train properly before with all players available this decision
still cannot guarantee all players will be available to train with oscar traynor .. typicall clare league though wonder how many of teams withs players on oscar traynor panel were even asked about their views on calling these matches off. :confused:
Just a few questions someone might be able to answer.
1. Last time Clare won O.T was premier stopped?
2. Do the players on O.T team want league games stopped or is it just management?
3. Can clubs pull players from O.T?
4. Is there anyone on the committee that can tell us if Clare go through when league will start up again?
Dont know if anyone has answers for questions just wondering
Is there players from out side the Premier on the Oscar Traynor panel,if so why are their divisions not cancelled.
1. Last time Clare won O.T was premier stopped?2004,no it wasn't.
2. Do the players on O.T team want league games stopped or is it just management?I know of 1 player who doesn't
3. Can clubs pull players from O.T?Yes but the player can be threatened with suspension so better off making up a good excuse;)
4. Is there anyone on the committee that can tell us if Clare go through when league will start up again?Can't answer this
Will this decision have anything to do with the league been moved to the summer?
Surely the league will be still going on while the GAA has started so for people who argue that the league won't work in the summer now surely we will know.
Probably nothing to with it but alot has been said about the league going to a summer league. If this was the case all clubs would get a good idea of what type of squad they have.
Or does this seem a bit too farfetched for the league.:confused: :confused: :confused:
If u all feel so strongly about this why dont you get all Premier clubs to write or email the League with your total disa pproval of this decision.That way they cannot say they are not aware.It looks like they are not aware at present.You need to complain now and not after it happens.you could make it an election issue for the AGM but you need to make them aware now.
Why are ALL premier league games off?
Not every premier side has players on the team.
Avenue, Newmarket, Newtown, Moher and Mountshannon would appear to make up the majority of the team selections.
Lifford, Bridge Celtic, Olympic, Bridge Utd have no players in the starting eleven (that I know of.)
Also all of these clubs are out of the cup. That means they will also have another free weekend while the oscar traynor players play in the Clare Cup for their clubs.
Surely at least some games could have been organised. ??? There are only two premier league games midweek this week. Why is there not a full round of fixtures for Wednesday night??
Last time Clare won O.T was premier stopped?2004,no it wasn't.
2. Do the players on O.T team want league games stopped or is it just management?no, rather play competitive games then just train, its as easy to get injured trainign as in a game
3. Can clubs pull players from O.T?they can but they will only alienate the player by doin that
4. Is there anyone on the committee that can tell us if Clare go through when league will start up again?there will be midweek games i thik week after the game.
