2023 Club Championships

Scoreline didnt at all reflect the game tbh. Either side could have won

Unreal stuff :sweat_smile:

Some of those are reasonable enough. Allows lads to play other sports until June which is generous enough.

I’d have been thinking Tipp based on the Limerick/Dublin college split but then again I don’t think they’re that military like in Tipperary. An All-Ireland winning club from west of the Shannon. I’m guessing Sixmilebridge.

It’s crazy stuff driven by narcissism of managers and club football/hurling committees.

Theres a balance to be struck and that management have gone the wrong way about it.

I do find it gas the way in a lot of clubs, lads are doing everything right, gymming, running, not drinking from January to May, then go on holidays to Ibiza in Mid July on the brink of Championship or play a game of golf the day before an important match.

I’m guessing Sarsfields in Galway but could be totally wrong.

They are on the brink of being very very good and need a few more percent to be back where they once were.

A couple of pints after a good championship win is a key part of teams bonding. Particularly in the group stages. Some of those are reasonable and allowing lads to play other sports until June is quite generous. But putting it down on e-paper will cause a rumpus.

Id like to know if its an outside manager that came up with that and if so,how much is he on? Id be paying him in Banana’s because hes an Ape.

Its cunts like that that will have the sport fucked.

Id imagine that would be “pre-approved” by management.

Threatening to strike lads off a panel at club level is mental stuff no matter what they do.

I just assumed this was going to be a hurling club but seems like its a Football club who flopped this year.

Or maybe not

It’s Clarininbridge. You can see mark Kennedy’s name on the graphic, he’s their corner forward.

The very term “leadership group” smacks of George Orwell/David Brent

I heard with Drom some of them gave Sunday and Monday drinking after beating Mullinahone in group fare. That sort of thing didn’t go down well with the elder statesmen or supporters

He should name and shame that Cunt of a manager

Or spend a weekend in a tent in Stradbally

My experience is it’s often driven by 2 or 3 loudmouth idiots from the team, and especially lads who are afraid of losing their place to younger fellas coming through. In any case it’s counterproductive and any management team pushing or facilitating it should be chased.

It’s treacherous and despicable

So much wrong with this. I predict a complete joyless season. Players not able to have a pint while they’re treating league in May like championship in August. Who the f**k are these jokers.

It seems ridiculous to me too, but I’ll wait for Kev’s definitive view to see if we’re right on this.
