Give him a break heā€™s not the first man to get a weather forecast wrong.

Weather forecasting isnā€™t for everyone

Exactly. And Iā€™m sure he realises that now.

Iā€™d say Spike would be happy enough to throw Reidy under the bus if he could.

Is Premier Junior Hurling happening next year

https://twitter.com/CrecoraGAA/status/1724195734763847990?t=MlCk0scKwiZYUoVCvwV9rA&s=19 I think so

Old Christians also have a poster up saying similar.

Not many clubs actually do what they have done there and stick it out in the open do they ? Iā€™ve no problem with it, never know who could get In touch.

Heā€™d drive it.

Ah itā€™s common enough these days, Galtee Gaels (football obviously) and Rathkeale (hurling) are among those who have sent out similar missives in recent weeks.

@Aristotle or someone might be able to do a list of teams that won county titles at adult level domestically this year - hurling and football - and whether they were managed internally or by an outsider.

Iā€™d say the vast majority would have a local manager but maybe an outside coach, along with the local selectors.

The amount of fucking army men we had over the years due to The Curragh being next door.

That 2015 u21 campaign in Munster is underrated.

Scraped past a strong Tipperary team with 14 men, David McCarthy with a miracle save when the game was in the melting pot in the second half and then winning the final in Ennis against a Clare team going for four or five in a row in the province.

Those two nights kind of told you this group of players had it.

Mighty night. 15,000 at an underage game on a Wednesday

Ya I remember being in Ennis for that game. A great occasion.

Colin Ryan was outstanding. He won an amount of long balls and won vital frees and scored a couple too.
