How their second goal yesterday still stood considering there was a blatant handball in the immediate build up to it, is staggering from the referee in particular who was asked to go look at it by VAR, but his balls disappeared up inside him and chose to ignore what was right in front of his eyes.
Those type of rules only apply to the smaller clubs.
Quote from: Armagh18 on May 19, 2024, 10:44:58 PMThink that's the reason the likes of St Peter's have scrapped reserves and went for Junior football instead. You might get one or two meaningful reserve games a year sandwiched between walkovers and cricket scores. I suppose with junior football you're almost certainly guaranteed the opposition won't cry off at the last minute with something to aim for (promotion & junior championship).Quote from: ranch on May 19, 2024, 10:23:19 PMBy all means have them playing league football. There should be a proper reserve championship to accommodate them however. As much as the CE lads would have enjoyed winning a junior championship last year, there was hardly a celebration out of them after they beat Ballyhegan.That St Peters team will be hard stopped. Yeah probably a tiered league competition for seconds and reserve teams would be best.
As for this year, St Peter's seconds are doing well, only lost one game to league favourites Corrinshego early in the season. Come championship you'd imagine that Forkhill and Middletown would be the favourites if they're at full strength.

Quote from: jcpen on Today at 09:15:22 AMWas easy enough for City in the end, it's bizarre how some thought it was bizarre that they were favorites

Free starters just can't get enough of FF/FG, and why would they want a change after being spoiled for so long
Quote from: imtommygunn on Today at 09:15:50 AMTipp were in it at half time and just after it for a bit too is the mad thing. They seemed to capitulate. Your man Kingston (not to take away from him) scored 4 points in a row from more or less the same place on the pitch. Would you not think they'd maybe get wise to that either management or players??
Can't see Waterford taking anything from Limerick as Limerick will be out to get to the final. What I do expect is Davy to be wired to the moon for it.
