Any truth in the cups being scrapped to finish the season faster??
Any truth in the cups being scrapped to finish the season faster??
I've heard they might play them at the beginning of next season... Only speculation yet I'd say
Only speculation/rumour...
It would also need to be players registered in the new season if that were the case, so for example if a guy playing for a team this season, signed for some one of the teams still involved in a cup competition, he would be entitled to play and wouldn't be cup tied.
I'm not sure what the precedent would be but I'm sure something like that has happened before...
I defer to the more knowledgeable football people on here regarding that one
Well done to all teams on getting games going again. Finish off the season in full,push it out a month. Ballistinianlad you have a follower by all accounts. Man is tapped wrong. I vaguely read through his posts not getting much reaction thankfully we still have people with lives.
Another good weekend of games ahead.
Might be no harm to get a midweek 1 0r 2 going if teams can organise between themselves.
Haha yes Desmond tutu. I think he’s given up his crusade though. Perhaps his friends in mi5 blocked his number lol.
Hopefully the cups aren’t cancelled.
so has a precedent been set, that if a club disagrees with what is in a referees card then the league will side with the club?
I think all questions are postponed until the season is finished Snafu
On a side note, with the kennedy cup on I see south dublin pulled out ant a team from belfast went in.
There are now 3 schoolboy trams from Limerick and only 2 from Dublin , beggers belief, imo county and Desmond should join together .
SDFL amalgamated with the DDSL early this year. made reference to it in the Schoolboys Section. I could be wrong, very wrong, but I think that particular SDFL age-group has struggled for a few years, effectively losing an almost full team last year. My lad was on the 2006 SDFL squad until we moved, and afaik they played all their games in the SFAI subway championships, so I suggest this might be just a blip.
There's room for a properly functioning South Dublin, North Dublin and SDFL imo.
Here they come! It’s the charge of the “Thanks” Brigade!
I think the district is big enough and has stronger clubs like ashling. Fairview etc to remain on its own.
Desmond and county would benefit from joining but a lot would depend on the coach to make sure there’s no political picks etc
Do Kildimo have an exceptionally good u14 team. 9 players in the Kennedy cup squad is some achievement
Desmond League winners get a bye into the Quarter Final of the Munster Champions Trophy. Mick's and Janesboro drew each other in the first round so the likelihood of drawing a top, top team is lesser thankfully.
Just a bit of concern regarding the fixturing.
After tomorrow Rathkeale will have one league game left.
If they make them play their last league game next week are they going to have to train away for a League Cup Semi that might not happen until next season, or best case scenario is still probably weeks away? Or will they push their final game out to coincide with everyone else's and play the league cup then which also leaves them with a few weeks off.
I could be completely off the mark here, would appreciate input.
