Absolutely but there was a lot of bad feeling about us being dragged out to tipps all ireland homecoming on their home pitch. like all counties we are useless supporters when we havent a chance. I wouldnt say there was 100 tipp supporters in pearse stadium this year, but the fact it was a all ireland we were in makes it a terrible showing.
Brutal management effort from wexford at half time not to be able to change the flow of the match
The u21 final has been fixed for Thurles. I think the GAA lack a bit of common sense at times. Golden opportunity here to put a bit of buzz back into Antrim hurling and they are dragging them down to Thurles again. Play the match in croker. Christ if they can play the Lory Meagher and Nicky Rackard there then why cant they play u21 final there.
Been a funny enough championship. Clare wouldn’t have got past Waterford if it wasn’t for Ian Prendergast getting himself sent off when Waterford were well in control.
Wexford making heavy weather of beating Westmeath and Carlow was an ominous sign as to what awaited them in Thurles on Saturday.
Antrim have raised an objection to Thurles as the final venue.
The Antrim board are some craic, they didn’t give a fuck when they arranged club football championship last weekend, total contempt for the U-21s.
Kevin Ryan has said that Antrim will be boycotting the A/I under 21 final if it takes place in Thurles
Well it is Tipp, could you blame them?
True, The risk of being anally probed by the local folk has to be taken seriously.
Your Mrs didn’t complain.
Lubbly jubbly 
The brethren of true hurling men must cry “no surrender” on this issue. We will be going back to the traditional venue this year, as we will do again in future years. Hurling must defend itself and crush these Northern infidels. They are not wanted in this final. They will take part only on the terms of true hurling men from true hurling counties.
These fucking idiots. They didn’t bother training for the competition and now they think they can dictate where they play.
Boot them out and let the Limerick minors take their place
Antrim are dead right. Fuck travelling all the way to Thurles, what a crock of shit.
I would boot both teams out and have Tipp and Kilkenny contest the match.
It’s the home of the GAA, it’s in the middle of the hurling heartland. Get their fucking arses down there or fuck off. The cunts have some cheek. Half their panel decided to stay home a play a fucking bogball game last Sat, and now the cunts think they can call the shots.
The Clare county board have supposedly offered to move the game to another venue but it isn’t up to them. The reason the final has been at 5pm in Thurles for the past few years is due to Bord Gais wanting a stand alone final played under lights as opposed to being doubled up with the camogie. Given that Bord Gais have contributed far more to the 21s championship in their 4 years of Sponsorship than Antrim have in the 40 years I would tell Antrim jog on
It doesn’t matter, why should Antrim be dragged that far down the country? Play it in Parnell Park.
Because the GAA decided a couple of years ago that the next 5 AI u-21 finals would be played in Semple Stadium in agreement with Bord Gais. Did you hear the cunts complaining then?
