Should An Glenn object?

[johnnycool]

Representatives of Kilmacud Crokes and the C.C.C.C met today to consider the implications of the decision on Friday of Watty Graham's Glen to withdraw from the process initiated around the 2023 AIB All-Ireland Club Football Final.

The C.C.C.C, arising from an objection on behalf of Watty Graham's Glen, had ordered a replay of the game on the basis that in excess of the number of players permitted were on the field for the last play of the game.

The C.C.C.C Decision – communicated to the two Clubs on Tuesday of last week - had made it clear that this was not a deliberate action and that no fault was attributed to Kilmacud Crokes for the situation they found themselves in.

Upon a request from the C.C.C.C., Kilmacud Crokes, in the interests of fully resolving the matter, today agreed to withdraw their Appeal to the Central Appeals Committee.

A subsequent meeting of the C.C.C.C has formally awarded the 2023 All Ireland Club Championship to Kilmacud Crokes.


So, it's now the match officials to ensure each team has the correct number of players on the field.

If that was the case from the get go, why order a replay?

It's a complete double win for Crokes as they deservedly get the title but they also have extra motivation for next year to prove all the haters wrong.

argued this point and it was laughed out but hey!! If a sub is made the ref doesn't start game till he's off. They've been doing that for years

Within Kilmacud, there were views on either side: accept the award of the title or proceed with their appeal to the CAC and potentially to the DRA in order to vindicate their position.

Of course they might not have succeeded, which would have placed an asterisk over their situation and left them in reputational limbo, awarded the title but their counter-objection to the replay ordered by the Central Competitions Control Committee rejected.

These were narrow margins. Kilmacud were anxious to avoid being awarded the All-Ireland in the committee room, having won it on the field. But despite being asked, Glen made it clear that although they were withdrawing from the process, they were not withdrawing their objection to the result.

More worried about getting beat in a replay.

This is quite a good analysis by Paddy Andrews

Clare sub picked up a yellow from the ref for coming onto the field before the other Clare lad had left (by the looks of it).

Is this the start of the crackdown?

Is it a yellow card offence? Wonder what ruling that falls under?

Is there anything about entering the field of play without the referee's approval?

Managers are flat on the pitches every week locally...

I wonder who they're eyeing up to sign for the club season next year? This split season certainly makes it more viable to entice guys on a short term one and done season.

Where and when is this replay everyone was so certain about?

GAA Congress haunted by Kilmacud-Glen controversy

GAA president Larry McCarthy and director general Tom Ryan probably knew they would have to cope with the unexorcised ghost of the All-Ireland club football final when they trooped in for the weekend's post-congress media conference.

There had been no shortage of immediate business to process but given that the Kilmacud-Glen match had been raised on the floor of congress on Friday night, its currency was still buoyant.

Asked what were the lessons of the whole sorry episode, McCarthy was clear about the steps needed to address how Kilmacud had a 16th player on the field after an injury-time substitution.

"Don't let players on until players come off. Enforce it. The rule is there so enforce it. It was an unfortunate error so that would be the most basic thing, I think."
