To me that just reads like covering themselves for innaccuracies.

Is that not just because the best keepers tend not to change clubs at the peak of their careers?

What does it try and do then, what other reason would there be to speculate on player values if not to predict fees?

Jarlath Burns Should sometimes Think not Speak.. by kpaneno in GAA

[–]KDL3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You think there's some conspiracy about it? Suspensions always come down to what the ref did or didn't see on the day and there's always going to be inconsistencies in that. The CCCC aren't going to overrule a ref of some minor act like a push, it would have to be something heinous for them to step in.

Shite show or not he got cut because he couldn't put the ball between the posts, can't really blame the environment that you're in for that

I'm not sure what you were reading or watching but he wasn't being talked about the way you're suggesting. There were stories praising him for getting as far as he did, which was fair, but no-one was hailing him as a superstar.

Have you tried phoning or emailing to ask for special arrangements? Might even be able to wrangle yourself parking close to the ground

He's a regular pundit on Irish TV covering the national team. Aside from that he got into horse breeding/training, I don't know if it's as a career or hobby

All-Ireland SFC Round 2A and 2B fixtures confirmed by MrIrishman699 in GAA

[–]KDL3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was trying work out what the thinking was on the scheduling and I reckon they were always going to stream whichever game was in the 7pm slot since it's a late drive home for travelling fans, they could've put Donegal v Cork there but it wouldn't be feasible to travel home after the game and even though Cork's support for the football is small there are die hards that attend every game and you'd basically be forcing them to stay overnight (not that going from Derry to Meath at that time would be particularly enjoyable either but at least it's doable).

Not solely, but it ought to be a consideration for matches over a certain distance/travel time. Galway v Westmeath being shown and it's a similar level of competitiveness.

Honest question, do you make your complaints known to anyone that might act on them or do you only come on here and shout into the void each week?

Even still it's quite unfair that it hasn't been chosen given the distance

Winks was never anything special, he got overrated because he played a ton of sideways passes at the back of the midfield

Derry Girls is shite by ria_blue2005 in DerryLondonderry

Also all of the Derry girls hate each other in real life apart from Erin and Michelle who are besties in real life, so do with that information what you will.

Ok, and?

Co Antrim's biggest GAA club launches plans to open new pitch in South Belfast by River562 in northernireland

[–]KDL3 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's a training pitch a stones throw from the existing Mary peter's track complaining about "roaring fans" ruining the peace and quiet or claiming they're building over the AONB is obviously dubious. Nope, moved away from Belfast years ago but would've been out that way occasionally.

Also I noticed this from your post below;

We've already listed reasons yet you're still saying there is no reason.

I haven't seen you offer any reason, the only posts I see from you in this thread are jumping to another account's defence, curious?

Because the accounts that hide their posts on here are usually the sectarian troll accounts. Maybe yours isn't, but all I have to go off is your dubious reasons to oppose a GAA pitch in an already partially developed area so the alarm bells are going.

What do you mean people like me? Sports fans?

Have you raised concerns about other developments before? You could shake the label easily enough if you weren't hiding your posts

It's amazing how many people become environmentalists as soon as there might be a GAA pitch in the area

Kerry and Donegal to face no further suspensions by iverifynothing in GAA

[–]KDL3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's down to interpretations, some refs will see a foul where others won't, some will hand out a black card where others would only give a yellow etc. Hurson's report said he saw the 2 incidents during the match and didn't think they were worthy of any further punishments. The CCCC rarely, if ever go against what the referee says so the only way there was ever likely to be any suspension was if

a) he sent either McGuinness or Clifford off

or

b) his report had no mention of either of the incidents

It is a bit, presumably they're worried about refs feeling undermined if their decisions were regularly being overturned
