Expenses as part of income is just another example of the public sector mindset, similar to sick leave being an extension of annual leave and must be used ensure the maximum number of days off.
Quote from: Milltown Row2 on May 12, 2021, 06:09:30 PMIs extra time still officially a new game? If so team can start with 15 players in extra time. My team did this back in 2000 and all was grand, except for the resultQuote from: Jonkunlon on May 12, 2021, 05:35:40 PM
A player gets sent off after the final whistle but before extra time begins. He can be replaced by a sub for extra time, correct???
Yes and no I believe if the ref doesn't get the team sheet signed before extra time is played he can be replaced, if team sheet is signed then no..
Don't hold me to that

The problem I have with refs, is not the individual per say, but the inconsistent application of the rules. Take the prominent Raskarkin ref who does allow more physical contact, then the up coming ref from Tir na nog who blows everything like a non contact sport. Totally frustrating. There has to be something fundamentally wrong when there is such a variance. Apparently both came through the ranks based on these assessors, like seriously. In saying that I would take the Raskarkin refs approach all day long.

Yes sorry your right Niall McKenna is an exceptional footballer. And apologies DR i thought you were talking about the county hurlers. Didnt realise you were talking about dunloy. I saw them v Moneyglass last year and although they do have some tasty footballers its hard to say if any of them are capable of getting to that senior county level, as to be honest, they dont seem to take football that seriously or care enough about it. they can hold their own at intermediate level and thats just on sheer talent. I remember dunloy would of been up there with rossa and johnnies as the best dual clubs in antrim but football has had to take a back seat by looks of it
Curious as to what would constitute a good dual club?
IMO winning senior championships in one code and consistently challenging in the other code at which ever level, would be a decent level. Rossa nor the Johnnies have this in either code, just wondering what they themselves would think.
Just a thought
So we would have been a good dual club, as would have the Johnnies back in the day along with Rossa have who won both titles with the same players back in the day. sustaining that is impossible

This a complete can of worms as clubs who claimed continued to run club lottos / collected memberships / ran fundraising draws.
Surely the single biggest expense for a senior club is the management - some clubs receiving in excess of £100k is scandalous - given insurances were credited / competition fees reduced.
The fund is audited & will come under intense scrutiny now to demonstrate what has been claimed to be spent on is actually spent on - otherwise the money will have to be returned.

Well a few counties are training so they'll not be too worried when the government give permission !!
What counties are training?
The only county I have heard of training is Antrim footballers, training on a council pitch in Belfast. I hope they wise up and stop cos it threatens everyone. Very selfish act.
Was there not a thread on about team's training? Down being one? Haven't heard the Antrim one.
Yes Down trained around Christmas and Paddy Tally was suspended. I believe Cork also got a suspension. Antrim footballers trained last Saturday at Cherryvale.

There's something about this whole Casement redevelopment which I don't understand.
When the original 38k capacity was first proposed by the GAA, Stormont's Safety Technical Group estimated that:
"... only only around 18,000 people could safely evacuate a redeveloped Casement in west Belfast if the Andersonstown Road was closed.
Police, fire and ambulance officials also warn that in a 'worst-case' scenario just over 11,200 fans could safely exit if cars are parked on residential streets."
https://www.irishnews.com/news/2016/03/15/news/casement-park-emergency-services-report-highly-significant-say-residents-450296/
[Also this, which I can't read behind their paywall? https://www.irishnews.com/paywall/tsb/irishnews/irishnews/irishnews//news/2016/03/14/news/38-000-casement-park-could-not-be-safely-evacuated-emergency-services-say-448623/content.html ]
So if it was deemed nowhere near safe for 38k, what has changed since to make it safe for 34k?
And on what basis could Nichola Mallon now recommend that 34k go ahead?
I think I read somewhere that the GAA was going to buy some land leading out towards Stockman's Lane, so maybe that might alleviate the problem? (I don't know for certain whether they have, nor am I familiar with the area)
Anyhow, if the local residents were successful in challenging the original plan on safety grounds, could they not do so again for the new plan?

I think its time for some reality now.
Build what you can with the funds available.
Wouldn't a tidy Stadium with 1 main Stand of say 5k capacity plus terracing with 10 -15k capacity be more than sufficient?
Co Board offices, dressing rooms etc under the Stand.
Unlikely many big Ulster games will be played in the 6 Counties anyway with VAT plus there may be new Football Championship structures.
We have plenty of good stadiums lying empty for most of the year- so yeah to a point I agree, its a real pity that we didn't have the gumption to match IFA and RFU plans and strategy from the start, but for me at this stage I cant really understand the obsession with Casement, it was never easily accessed anyhow, we could have had the full deal somewhere else by now. Belfast is on the very far right of the province. We cant get some people within our own county to make the trip over the Glenshane without moaning. Bundoran or Cavan Town to West Belfast(with the torturous traffic) isn't exactly handy.

Its an interesting debate here and one that has many rights and wrongs, depending on your own point of view.
How do you feel that its worked out for your own club KCSC? Your footballers have been paying for a manager for a number of years now since Micky Moran was it? correct me if im wrong here.
Do you feel that bringing in paid managers over this period of time has brought the senior team on or do you think otherwise? Its interesting to hear that side of things from clubs who bring managers in rather than source your own club. Since they started paying managers should, in that passing time, the club not of been investing as well in coaches to take that mantel on down the line. Or has that not been done at all?
Im not having a go at your club by the way, I do want to understand the long term plan of a club that pays managers year on end and if theres an end goal other than hope that they bring success (by using the unpaid underage coaches hard work to develop the kids)
We dont pay managers and i would oppose it in any shape if our senior hurlers or footballers or camogier managements were paid. Im in one of these set ups and have been for the past 7 years now.
I dont want paid. I dont go to the pitch for training and to matches twice a week for money. Ive been offered money to take other teams and turned it down as i couldnt care less about another club and how they do. I dont care about the development of their minors or U14's but i do care very much about our own players and wanting to see them do well and its why i spend countless hours doing it.
