just on this, if clonmel do get a favourable result in the arbitration ie a replay i would think pike should play them because clonmels last competitve match was april 22nd (i know they played the 28th but they had the league won)so i reckon pike would take them rather than risk losing out on a semi final place.
Why should the clubs that have done nothing wrong have to suffer the indignity of perhaps havin to play Clonmel. I hope they get chucked out once and for all and the MJC top that with a big fine and a ban from the competition for a few years for their carry on !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The arbitrator will offer nothin on the night except his ear.I know this from past experience myself.At the end he/she wont say who they think is wrong or right.They just hear both sides stories and then spend a few days dwellin on it before they make their decision,next Wed/Thur at the latest.
The semi is penciled in for the 10th at Turners Cross and the final the following Sunday i'd say myself.Maymount voiced their concern that because of the delay in gettin the game played a lot of their players had holidays booked for the last week in June and if they would have reached the final they would not be in position to play.That means the final in the interests of fairness(which Clonmel no nothing about)would be played on the weekend of the 16/17th.

IF this true, it is a disgrace and it would be great if Balla and Maymount also pulled out (Not going to happen, I know). There is no way Clonmel should be left back into the competition.
Also IF clonmel are back in the competition, can the ex limerick players now play for balla in the final?
No decision out yet. This is all rubbish.
Friend of mine just rang me. He works with Town PRO Maurice Walsh and he told him that it was all over for Town. The arbitrator upheld the FAI ruling. He also told him that McKeever is quitting as manager and that some of the senior players are leaving as well because of this. They feel badly let down by the club. If this is the case, Walsh and a few more should do the decent thing and resign. They aren't fit enough to run the club and their actions have brought the great name of this club into disrepute.
I don't know any of them personally but they have done a bad job. I have heard Maurice Walsh a few times on Tipp Fm and whilst he is a very good sports analyst, maybe he should stick to that rather than f**king up Clonmel Town. I never heard of him until a few years ago, is he a true Town man and does he really care. I know it is not all his fault but if he and T Scully have any respect for themselves and the club, they should walk away
i dont know if they're appeal was thrown out of not but if it was it was the biggest waste of 5K I have ever come across
