2017 All Ireland Senior Football Championship

Doesn’t sit right with Davys ban.

We don’t know what was said, and believe me i think McGeeney is a fraud and a cunt, but Davy interferred with a player. I know of a lad from Valley Rovers in Cork who got 12 months for that.

Also surely Davy has a worse track record?

McGeeney seems like a lad with demons, just like Davy really.

How would it sit with Galvins ban for interfering with a notebook?

What did he get again?

Ah now, I think that was a bit more serious!

24 weeks

If you read the rule Davy’s ban was a strict implementation of the rules.

He entered the field of play and physically confronted a player. The suspension fo rthis is 8 weeks if you haven’t been suspended for it before.

I don’t believe that Davy had been suspended for it previously,

McGeeney was suspended due to this rule.

Previous issues?
As in i know there was but was he actually punished?

Are you asking did Galvin get 24 weeks?!

Hard to believe there’s not video somewhere of this altercation…

The Nordies have closed ranks as usual.

Unbelievable that they kept it this quiet up to now.

No had he previous offences (that were punished)?

Check the reply I made to you above @caoimhaoin

They’re applying the rule in it’s strictest sense. There’s a 12-week ban for what he did.

Davy’s was on a player so it was 8 weeks.

Not that I can recall, but the length would suggest so, ie a doubling of the 12 week ban.

Ya tgats what i was thinking. Typical GAA to be unbelievably inconsistent and has a few handy rules to support such inconsistancy

Shambles :grin:

Highly-rated Laois senior football and hurling team coaches Michael McGeehin and DJ O’Dwyer have been controversially axed in a cost-cutting exercise.

Donegal native McGeehin, Director of Coaching Ireland, had been working as coach alongside the O’Moore County’s senior football team manager Peter Creedon.

O’Dwyer, meanwhile, was hurling team boss Eamonn Kelly’s strength and conditioning coach, and he’s currently involved with Tipperary senior club football outfit Clonmel Commercials.

McGeehin and Kelly were informed at the conclusion of the Allianz League that their services would be no longer required, with costs cited as the key reason behind a county board recommendation that they be let go.

The respective team managers, Creedon and Kelly, are both believed to have been aggrieved by the stance taken by officials.

Creedon informed McGeehin that county board chiefs were looking to dispense with his services, while Kelly delivered the bombshell news to O’Dwyer.

It is understood that Creedon subsequently sought counsel from other backroom men, Michael O’Loughlin and Tommy Toomey, before agreeing to remain on as manager, following relegation to Division 4.

McGeehin had previously worked as coach alongside Creedon, when the Cork native was in charge of the Tipperary senior footballers, while O’Loughlin and Toomey were also on board in the Premier County.

And when Creedon was announced as the new Laois senior manager last year, all three men came with him.

McGeehin, who’s also been involved with Limerick in the past, is understood to have been extremely disappointed with developments in Laois, with O’Dwyer expressing similar sentiments.

McGeehin has since returned, earlier than expected, to his role with Mayo club champions Castlebar Mitchels, who are aiming for a third successive county title this year.

They begin the defence of their title on Saturday evening against Crossmolina Deel Rovers, while O’Dwyer will once again assist Commercials as they look to wrestle the Tipperary crown back from holders Loughmore-Castleiney.

From the 1 minute mark ‘very passionate about east coast football’. Fuck off.

Any chance you could write a parody rap to prevent me doing it, mate?

That time of year when we do the annual “I didn’t realise he was in New York” double take.

New York panel: Vinny Caden, Tom Cunniffe, David Cunnane, Shane Hogan, Peter Withlowe, Brain Gallaher, David Culhane, Paddy Boyle, Conor McGraynor, Daniel Mckenna, Gerard McCartan (capt), Shane O’Connor, Keith Quinn, Danny Suttcliffe, Jer O’Sullivan, Eoin Flanagan, Paul Lambe, Keith Scally, Tony Donnelly, Kevin Connelly, David Freeman, Stephen Doake, Ronan McGinley, Conor Farrell, Paul McGinley, Colin Keane, Ross Wherity, Eoin Ward, Eugene McVerry, Nial McFeeley.

McCartan, Cuniffe, Sutcliffe and Wherity all stand out. Anyone else? Jer O Sullivan must be from Cork.
