Ban gaa from going ahead for the year. We can’t have this happening.

The drip drip stories from other counties that’ll come out in the next few days will put an end to any inter county activity for the foreseeable future I’d say.

The amount of cones I saw in whatsapp messages yesterday and ne’er an ice cream

The Dublin media will see to it that at least a dozen counties will be brought down by the weekend.

And the fall out from that was the County Board own them now.

Yep it’ll all come tumbling down like a house of cards now.

Stupid rules are there to be broken

This seems a football thing at the moment . Thankfully no hurling teams outed yet - either hurling folk abide by the rules or don’t grass up their own .

Very few people play hurling so there’s no need to train as hard

A shame Dessie is going to miss the next 12 weeks of hectic GAA action.

John Costello has acted decisively.

A real test of Larry’s leadership here.

Has he the nuts for the job.

Time will tell.

The manager taking the fall for his players in public. A Sir Alex magnanimous gesture that he will get back in spades in performances on the playing pitch.

Did he suspend his own son who was evidently there? Dessie Farrell wasn’t even pictured. Surely the grown men on the panel should be the ones who are punished.

That’s the end of that so.
