So the dust has almost settled on the All Ireland semi finals of the intermediate and junior club championship and the build up to the finals on the weekend of St. Valentines day starts. Well all except for the Junior football game between Bronsa (Kerry) and Rock St. Patricks (Tyrone) which finished in a draw 0-10 to 1-07 after extra time.

The other semi finals were all decided and the excitement an All Ireland appearance will go into overdrive in these clubs ahead of what promises to be a special day for the players.

Wonder what the reaction to Ravenhill naming rights being sold by Ulster rugby to Kingspan be? Ravenhill will now be know as Kingspan Stadium............ But sure Kingspan is very closely linked to the GAA.... Kingspan Breffni Park in Cavan town and Cavan GAA sponsored by Kinspan.... Going by the reaction to a few PE tops in a school having a little logo sure the out cry will be massive towards Kingspan.... It'll be interesting

Thats grand so, all is perfect again in the world of the GAA. Glad we have that sorted out. Best of luck to Kerry for the rest of this years minor championship.

Cant wait for the next game that goes to extra time.

Minor game, panel of 24, 5 subs normal time, game ends in a draw nobody sent off, 9 changes made during the interval between normal time and extra time with a further 3 changes durning extra time.

Or take a senior game, panel of 30, 5 subs normal time, draw game nobody sent off, 15 changes durning the interval and a further 3 durning extra time.

Take note managers. I guess the likes of the managers involved in drawn games so far this year have missed the boat there. Could have had different outcomes in games. Monaghan -v- Armagh..... Westmeath -v- Wicklow?

Anyway glad its sorted.

Below is the Kerry panel, scorers and subs (plus times they came on) that were used on monday in the minor quarter final agaiinst Roscommon. This was printed the same in all the national papers yesterday that reported on the game. It is clear to see that Kerry used 9 subs durning the course of the game and extra time. The rules state that a team may use 5 subs in normal time and 3 subs in extra time. Kerry either used 5 in normal and 4 in extra time or 6 in normal and 3 in extra time.

Whats going to happen with this. With the impact that some of the subs had durning the game and especially in extra time will the GAA push this under the carpet because its a big county like Kerry thats involved?

Kerry - P O'Sullivan; M Galvin, P Galvin, N Fitzgerald; G Gibson (0-1), J Coffey, D Wren; S Carroll (0-1), M Brennan; D Kelly (0-1), J Sherwood, D O'Sullivan (0-2); M Reen (1-1), N O'Shea (1-1, 1pen), E O'Connor (0-4, 2f). Subs - M Griffin for Wren (35), J O'Sullivan (0-1) for Kelly (39), I Galvin (0-1) for Reen (49), K Hurley (1-1) for O'Connor (54), M Thiemann for O'Sullivan (57), P Joy (0-1) for Sherwood (60), J Walsh for Brennan (68), J Sherwood for Griffin (70), E O'Connor for O'Shea (78).
