I wonder how many now will consider Kilmacud Crokes title "tainted"? MillerX (Meath) - Posts: 950 - 03/02/2023 20:25:21 2456237 Link 1 |
Glen have withdrawn their appeal. For many it will mean there was no winner of the 2022 AI senior club football championship. Viking66 (Wexford) - Posts: 6670 - 03/02/2023 20:26:47 2456238 Link 1 |
If Crokes don't want a replay then they should be banned for 5 years from club All Ireland championship and give the title to Glen, who now deserve it. Crinigan (Meath) - Posts: 1230 - 03/02/2023 20:47:27 2456240 Link 0 |

That makes no sense. In that case, Glen would have prevailed despite their opponents acting illegally. Such a score would all the more deserve to be preserved because of the extra difficulty they would have faced in scoring it What you are suggesting here would reward the team breaking the rules. Following your logic, any team that saw it was about to concede a last-minute score which might lose it the match, all it would have to do would be to send a 16th player onto the pitch, and in that way it could always nullify the other team's winning score. Have you never heard of the advantage rule? points50swiththeargyllsonthewrongfeet (Tyrone) - Posts: 107 - 03/02/2023 21:09:54 2456244 Link 0 |
Well done Glen. Made a point and kept their dignity and self respect in a wave of partitionist, anti-Northern bigotry from other so called Gaels. This was the right move by withdrawing their appeal. Kilmacud won the game on the pitch but rules were broken. They forced Croke Park to make a decision that should have done over a week ago. Many Glen players weren't happy at making Kilmacud play again, the game was won by the Leinster Champions but the Derry team has been vindicated. Take a bow.
