They’ll be looking for their money back after yesterday’s debacle. Shocking game.
They might have to end their ‘massive’ sale that’s been going on for over 25 years now

was the attendance very poor also? looked scant to me
Poor crowd aswell. Douglas and Imokily having around 20 supporters didnt help. No games before semi final should be played in Pairc UI Caoimh in my opinion. Biggest crowd of the weekend was in Fermoy
5 pts wins a Senior quarter final, Jesus…
Played in Bandon, Tis lucky they didn’t fucking drown

Just looking at the map there and the area of Cork north of Macroom and south of Banteer wouldn’t be too familiar to me; @gilgamboa I presume it would mostly be junior clubs around this part of Cork? Even the placenames, other than Millstreet, wouldn’t ring any bells.
The greatest of them all ‘the Bould Thady Quill’ was from Ballinagree

An absolute gentleman, gave his life to the club, he was a superb coach to us as small kids on the basics of the game, he tried in vain to change my golf grip, always good humoured

I see the geniuses in the county board are only allowing 18 year olds play up to Junior level next year. So Kileagh will have 4 Cork minors playing Junior hurling. Fantastic for their development. Laughable decision.
That is laughable. Look how well Timmy Wilk is playing for Imokilly this year, and how well he will develop from this.
Last year Jack Leahy, William Buckley, Diarmuid Healy, Ben O’Connor were all very comfortable at Senior level hurling. In Senior A Cillian Tobin had a good campaign.
This is hurting nobody except the top, top 18 year olds in the county - a decision very wide of the mark
Agreed, some joke.
Also, it kind of helps the big, big clubs with larger picks. Sars won’t be hurt at all, neither will Midleton, Rockies.
The likes of Killeagh as you mentioned, Charleville have 3 Cork minors as well. This rule is a huge kick in the face for them.
Smaller clubs have such a tough job anyway with the pickings that they have. Village clubs competing at the top level can’t afford this hit IMO
