Quote from: marty34 on April 07, 2024, 08:58:26 AMI love the seeing a pitch covered at half-time with young and old, fathers and mothers with their kids etc. pucking and kicking a ball about. No issues.
A great sight.
Conversely, I've seen kids being hunted off pitches i.e. Athletic Grounds at inter-county club championship games by 'jobworths' and it's only 2 or 3 kids looking to kick or puck about, not 500 children.
A joke.
We've gotten soft.
There's a growing culture in Gaelic Games that pitches must be pristine.
There's too much praise and thanks put into the efforts of groundsmen to present them pristine.
