Can anyone confirm the following?

Fixtures:
Sunday 13/01/08 (10.30 ko)
Murroe v Prospect
Knockainey v St.Pats
Shels v Park
Croom v Holycross
Fairview v Coonagh

I saw that too and its wrong. I took the table from the paper before Christmas and it looked like this:

Shels have lost to Croom and Coonagh since that table so have definitely played 11 games. Fancy them this weekend though if its on.

That's right we have played 11 games so far..We are NOT going as good as we taught we would. A few results so far have went bad for us even though we should have won those games.. We have made a good signing to help our back line

. New years resolution for us is to WIN WIN WIN...

Lets hope the LDMC do the decent thing this weekend and call all games off on Saturday.

Clubs can ring between 2 and 4 on Saturday and deem their pitch unplayable. In my opinion the LDMC have to be applauded for this idea.

**larrywhite** · 17/01/2008, 1:59 PM

Exactly. Its the clubs that dont ring in and then make you get up early and travel are the idiots.

Twice we've been out to the same pitch in the last few weeks, both times called off

One of their party said "a fair amount of rain fell last night" any gimp with half a brain would check the weather forecast as well when deciding if the game will be plaable on the Saturday

So your club have never had a game called a game off the same day as the fixture?
Its part and parcel of football, and not even at professional level are all games called off the day before, as has been seen in recent weeks.

Sure is but that is usually due to extreme weather conditions the day of the match, in particular frost. The aforementioned pitch was 2 feet under water last week. With the amount of rain that fell it was obvious even on the Saturday that it was unplayable. Lazy gimps didnt ring in as they didnt bother to check the pitch and dragged 3 of our players over 100 miles each that morning. I rang LDMC and their answer was "ah sure ye are only over the road we thought it would be no bother to ye." Like every player plays for their local club, I dont think so! At least they have agreed to ring for us next time if they get no reply.

Fair point, but my point was it happened twice, once may be forgiveable but twice, no dice

I was trying to... erm... sign new players, plus I find training ruins my form and I'm a confidence player

ITS BETWEEN 12 AND 2 THE HOME TEAM CALL AND 2 AND 4 THE AWAY TEAM TO FIND OUT IF ITS ON.ITS NOT ALWAYS ACCEPTED WHEN YOU PHONE IN TO TELL THEM THAT THE PITCH IS NOT PLAYABLE AND THEY LEAVE IT UP TO THE REF ON THE MORNING OF THE GAME TO CALL IT OFF, AND IT OFTEN CAUSES DIFFICULTIES WITH THE TRAVELLING TEAM WHEN THIS HAPPENS.

In our case the home team didn't even bother ringing to say either way
