I remember a time when Kildare were the last team you wanted to get through the back door.
If you were any use you'd be playing.

That sound you hear is the sigh of relief from Uefa now that Kildare and Westmeath hand passing the ball to each other for 70 minutes will no longer take away from the attendance at or indeed interest in France vs Ireland.

Laois v Armagh on in the middle of Ireland v Belgium...ah fcuk them let them play.
Ireland v France on the same day Dublin are playing...change throw in times so everyone can see the game.

In the land of corporate GAA all teams are equal except some teams are more equal than others....

So are we not giving credit to the GAA for learning from their mistakes?

maccer

They made the same 'mistake' in 90 or 94 (?) playing a Donegal match I think the same time as an Irish world cup game but they didn't learn. The only reason they're doing it now is to accommodate the dubs

Hardy

Can't be. All the dubs are in bleedin' Leeyill.

If the time wasn't changed you guys would be going ape over that. Damned if you do and damned if you don't.

Times changed I believe with the agreement of ALL 4 teams involved I believe.

maccer

Of course it's the right decision. Point is if it's the right decision next Sun why wasn't it the right decision last Sat....only explanation is gaa don't care about most counties only want the galacticos filling the coffers.

Another example is Sat week...laois footballers in portlaoise at 3 - laois hurlers 80 miles away in Ennis at 7. Would you see that happening to Dublin or cork for example and it's not the first time that's happened laois

Rossfan

As so few from Laois actually go to see Laois teams playing it's matter less when it where they play ;)

That is outrageous. Fancy that , fixing the Laois footballers the same day the hurlers were playing. How did this come about?

Really think the master fixture list prepared at the beginning of the season is not fit for purpose.

That happens regularly in qualifiers. Offaly have had it numerous times.
