The School, College & University Competitions Thread (another thread gone west)

It is for a tree surgeon.

Why do you want them for:D

Have your phone on tonight, Joe. I expect the decision to be in by about 11pm. Have your tay and sandwiches ready for tomorrow regarless.

Cool

No, I don’t know the context of the whole thing. I’m calling you on the dreadful post.

[QUOTE=“caoimhaoin, post: 1093936, member: 273”]Not sure what’s worse, only having one example of a loose accusation or the idiots that applauded it without even a name to it.

Dreadful interneting.[/QUOTE]
The quote proves absolutely nothing.

Unlike other institutions UCC GAA players actually have to pass exams.

Colm Galvin is not playing for Mary I as he failed exams and is repeating.

Also he couldn’t give a fuck about this Mickey Mouse tournament. Great news about Carlow, a nice rest for Cha, Dwane and Picky.

These Comhairle Ardoideachais are some gobshites all the same, thank God Croke Park is there to keep these cunts in line.

Have these fixtures been cancelled or postponed?

It would seem a bit drastic to cancel the whole competition for this year but then again the reputational damage to inter-varsities GAA has been so great that perhaps cancellation would be the wisest option.

I’m sure Mary I will appeal the appeal. This is going all the way to the high court.

Refixed for Tuesday. 3 games in 5 days to win this thing, they’d be as well of tossing for it.

That’s what happened to Mary I in the first place that caused all this mess… What an absolute farce.

In fairness this is retarded.

They are seen as piss weak now the board. Farcical is really what it is.

Whatever about the weekends, all county managers can plan around them and it’s no big deal if te player gets 3-4 days off after.

However if I was part of a county management team in this situation I’d be seriously considering pulling lads.

3 games in 5 days, at that level? Fuck that.

I thought it was fairly clear cut whether a player is eligible/ineligible. Something to do with a minimum number of credits in a college course needed.

Ya I thought so too, it’s bananas that it’s happening.
Must be some research been done into opposing teams and courses.

Not a fan of objecting myself. I think that should be independently done and the refs should have some check off list or the likes.

Ah giving it to the refs would be madness. What would you have them do? Carry around passport photos of panel members and call in to the college’s registry office a few mintues before throw in?

No

Well what then?
