Do you enjoy being as akward as possible on every thread? There is no way they were forced on the pitch . In case you didn't see it there was still plenty of Limerick supporters still in the stand when the cup was being raised. If it was impossible to get out how do you explain i and plenty of other supporters got out? Or was i forced on the pitch as well?

I've never seen you agreeing with the majority of people on a thread. If it really is your opinion fair enough but it happens a bit to much to be a coincidence.

Looks like I was right regarding somebody throwing an egg-shaped ball onto the pitch :D

Very valid point, which leads us to this;

How do you know they weren't forced. Could have been at front of terrace/front row seats and easiest way out of ground is via pitch instead of fighting against crowd trying get into the pitch.

They may not have wanted to go on field but may have had to do to actions of other spectators in the crowd around them. It may have been safer for them to go onto pitch than try fight against flow of crowd going against them. How is timing fishy??

Possibly the only time Ormy ever has gone with the crowd.

I suppose he'll be able to buy himself a nice new Xbox or PS4 with the compensation...

Ironic hearing Ormo talk about the dangers of pitch invasions.
You are far more likely to be injured playing a game of rugby than you are in a pitch invasion. There are so many rugby players who retire with debilitating injuries ( and every now again are consigned to wheelchairs) I think that there is a stronger case to be put forward for rugby to be banned.
Imagine if every time a rugby player got injured he sued the IRFU?

Why do people keep saying that "They can't sue because they weren't supposed to be on the pitch"? Do you actually think that makes a difference in the eyes of the law?

You cannot waive liability when it comes to personal injury. Its the same reason you can't just shoot somebody robbing your house, after all they shouldn't be there either.

These claims may be unsuccessful, but if they are it won't be because some gormless GAA man stands in court and says "sure they weren't even supposed to be on the pitch m'lord...".

a few points on this,i looked back on it on you tube there were plenty of red colours on the pitch as well and before any of ye come back at me i know they were outnumbered prob 100 to 1,i watched the invasion from the open stand and to be honest though i was thrilled and emotional that we had won i thought it was over the top.I know they shouldn't have been there but the facts remain we don't know what happened to the 3 in question though like most of ye i wouldn;t think a lot about people that would claim.

Breaking the rules makes big difference in the eyes of the law i presume, or at least it should.

Idiotic to compare a pitch invasion, where you shouldn't be and get injured, to a rugby game.
So many rugby players? Not really. Don't have figures to hand but very few end careers with debilitating injuries and very very very few end up in wheelchair
Getting injured in a game compared to invading a pitch...

Ah yes you can shoot someone robbing your house, under the The Criminal Law (Defence and Dwelling) Act 2011. Once they are breaking the law, they lose defense of the law and you are entitled to defend yourself and property and homeowners have the right to stand their ground.
Also on the pitch invasion it could be argued that they where trespassing when they entered the pitch, if they fell down the steps then that is a different matter.

Wasn't aimed at any one poster , and agree details are unknown , however until details are made public lets deal with what we DO know ,
Patrons advised NOT to go onto pitch
Public ignored the many public address announcements
This type of opportunism is rampant in Ireland .
Actions taken by the three stink and would take a massive leap of faith to give them the benefit of the doubt .so for now the politest thing I can say about them no xmas card from me .

We'll never know the claimants or the nature of the claims other than they where the result of 'falls'. The nature of these things is to try and have it settled out of court. We can all look forward now to the Hill 16 wall/barrier extended everywhere. Still think once it states on the program and announcements that it is forbidden to enter the pitch thats the end of it.

A survey from the Irish rugby Union Players Association has just determined that a whopping 50% of professional rugby players here have played through a concussion.
So come on ormo, if you think that pitch invasions should be banned because a fan might get a bit claustrophobic, are you going to be consistent and call for rugby to be banned, or at least for the number of games a player plays to be dramatically reduced?
