Rebelgaa forum

[miahp]

seems to have shut down for " maintenance " since early yesterday. What's the real story ? I suspect a threat from our learned friends.

[Lamps]

Rumour has it, and its only a rumour, that the owners of the board weren't happy with the direction that the threads were taking. Its like a mini county board over there complete with a rigged voting system, no freedom of speech and critical posts disappearing in the middle of the night

[miahp]

They attempted march last night :

" When we bleed, we bleed red " !

[Poc Fada]

Owners probably got a call from Frank Murphy and told them they'd be dropped from whatever teams they play for if they didn't remove the pro-player comments.

Its quite pro-county board actually but that hardly the fault of the owners. I like the place but its a bit slack most of the time bar the championship.

[SMALLBALL]

Right so, to sumarise your lots arguments:

Anyone who disagrees with the players is either A a county board stooge B a wum C an asshole.

Did any of ye read the Indo today, Eugene McGee. Called the whole lot of them a shower of gobshites, board and players.

Cusack is Frank in the making, a little Duce, apprentice to the capo de tutti capi.

I dunno about the 'Frank in the making' comment there, I'd say Cusack would be as tough as him but the main difference would be he'd maybe put the good of the sport ahead of stoking his ego.

I disgree steve i do think he's a frank in the making. he aint putting the good of the sport forward there now though is he!!


with relation to Rebelgaa.com what is going on there surely they aint shutting down the forums on there??? or is it just until the player dispute is over??

It's only my opinion but I'd completely disagree with you there too. I see Cusack and lets not forget the 59 other lads who are willing to put their careers on the line over this issue, I see the CB having caused this mess digging deeper the whole time.

Does anybody really think that any one of them would not prefer to be training hard and getting ready for Championship action at the moment?

Does anybody really think a return to the CB picking selectors is the way to win more AI's?

Does anybody really not think that winning more AI's is the single best way we have of promoting the sports within our county and keeping the wolves of soccer and rugby in their place?

Does anybody really believe that the introduction of this motion was anything but a swipe at the players from Frank Murphy?

firstly the players could have acted by contacting there clubs to vote against the upcoming motion on the couonty board picking the selectors as they knew it was coming. Instead they believe themselves to be above the recognised channels of getting things done.

secondly sean og saying frank murphy should go is ridiculous if someone was publicily saying some hurler/footballer should go there would be outrage.

thirdly, this started out primarily as a football issue as it affects them at the moment. the hurlers were right enough to say they would support the footballers but since the hurlers have gotten themselves involved we've heard no more from the footballers.

we've also heard nothing from the alleged captain of the footballers in derek kavanagh surely he as captain and a recognised starter for the footballers would have been the ideal representative to send out as the spokesperson oinstead of Fintan goold who's trying t break into the team. insterestingly we've heard nothing form the likes of james masters, nicholas murphy, graham canty who would be considered the more senior players on the football team. instead we are constantly hearing of cusack,sean og joe deane.

it seems to me that the hurlers have been itching for a fight with the county board due to a clash of personalities and have used this problem to stage their battle.

this was/is a football problem. the hurlers have no problem in pllaying for gerarld mac. so why arent the footballers the ones doing the negiotiating on the issue??????????

[Lamps]

Scrumpy, that post is all over the place. I'm not even going to go into whats wrong with it as each of those arguments has been put to bed over the last few weeks. You have your own opinions, incorrect ones, and there's nothing we can do to change it.

arguments put to bed in the past weeks???? obviously not there lamps.

it began as a footballing issues so where have all the footballers gone?????

ego's have overcome the hurlers. I hope they both get thrown out of the league and the championship too. then maybe we'll get the clubs being given first priority

Hi, I don't do forums much, actually this is my first one so go easy on me :) I just want to say a huge thanks and fair f(*%s to all who turned up for the march to support the players last night. I live in Boston and like all Rebel fans all over the world have been keeping a fierce close eye on all of this. The weather was brutal and the notice was short but it was great to see so many show up.

Welcome on board. Start getting more opinionated or you're fucked.
Its good to know Corkonians abroad appreciate the effort.

[SMALLBALL]

Langer Dan,

Do you know Frank Murphy? If not then shut the f*** up.

We are all entitled to opinions. You seem to think its OK to slam the board and delegates, Bob Frank et al, but the players are above criticism.

Are you in love with Donal Og?

[scrumpy]

I think its absolutely shocking that rebelgaa forum is closed down due to someone posting their opinion albeit a rather defammatory one. surely boards are self moderating and the post can eb removed and that user suspended. it's like a form of censorship in closing that forum

[SMALLBALL]

Scrumpy,

It is a very sensitive forum. Posts are locked for no apparent reason on a regular basis. The moderartors are afraid of their lives of libel actions.

I missed Homo's comments....must have been tasty!

[scrumpy]

Thats shocking shit though. i do agree that people shouldnt be defamed though and i can understand that when somebody hiding behind a pseudoname goes online to attack someone its particularly cowardly but i think theres a degree of policing the views put on there. GAA is difficult because you could say person X is good enough for the cork 21's for example and i could say he's pure shit and thats not really fair on the person being commented on. then again you often hear worse being shouted from the stands of the local pitches so i suppose it could be accepted

Are you in love with Donal Og?

Yet its o.k. for you to launch unsubstantiated personal attacks on Donal Og?

He's done a lot for Cork hurling and deserves our respect if nothing else and not some ill thought out, ridiculous fascist comparisons.



Only an utter tool would be leaping to Frank Murphy and Bob Honohans's defence after their shameful handling of this whole fiasco, draw your own conclusions.

[SMALLBALL]

langer,can you see how hypocritical your being?

You may not like them, but i respect some of these old codgers that have given a life time of service to the GAA. They are sometimes overly conservative, but I am willing to give believe that they are there for the good of Cork GAA. If you are OK to pillory them,call them names etc, then why can I not respond in kind to the players?

You seem to think that all wrong is on one side. When you grow up a little, you will learn that lifef is not as simple as that.

[Langer Dan]

there is no one abusing Frank Murphy in this thread, the only person singled out is Donal Og.

This wistful Last of the summer wine Job in relation to Frank and Co. is laughable. Is the current dispute in the best interests of Cork G.A.A?
Was the decision to reintroduce the board picking selectors in the best interests of Cork G.A.A?

Only a fool would argue that this underhand attempt to seize control of the intercounty team was anything other than a personal power play on the behalf of the board.

The Squads are to be commended for not laying down unlike unpatriotic Corkmen who have rushed to slander and ridicule the panels for standing up for what is right for Cork Hurling and Football.

1. No
2. the issue of picking selectors is a matter for the manager and the county board. the county board pick the manager so what difference does the selectors make???

how is disagreeing with the squads being unpatriotric??

BOARD APPOINT THE MANAGER. SO IF TEDDY HOLLAND WAS FREE TO PICK HIS SELECTORS AND HE PICKED THE CURRENT CREW ARE YOU SAYING THE PLAYERS WOULD NOT BE ON STRIKE SO??????

[Langer Dan]

The issue is and has always been about the selectors!!!!
HOW MANY TIMES DO YOU NEED THIS EXPLAINED?

Ifs and buts dont fit into this argument.
Holland took the post against the palyers express wishes under the terms of the board picking the selectors.

Hence the stalemate.
Jesus wept.

[Langer Dan]

Its not. Its about the clubs not being able to run champsionships while Cork managers hog their players either side of an inter-county game. Stick to the points otherwise you'll descend into the nonsense that pro-county boarders cough up.

BTW, if RebelGAA want to close their forum for fear of libel nobody should be on here having a go at them. Granted, they're far more nervous than the mods on this site but if a legal claim is slammed on PROC, RebelGAA would be sitting pretty.

Personally I think theres very little chance of this happening to RebelGAA but its their choice to play defensive.

ps: Fuck the county board.


Tis in its bollix, Bob Honohan has referred to this in an attempt to cloud the issue but whjen asked directly on countysound why he proposed the motion to remove the managers right to pick his selectors he couldnt answer.

This is not about club fixtures.
This is not about about the GPA.

It has and remains about the selector issue.

Im sick of this shit from bitter GAA old sweats, just because players are looking for a bit of financial support their greedy, oh ya in my day it was all about playing for the GAA and great one belief, take off the rose tinted glasses and take a look at reality..

as far as im aware every sport in the country is dependent on volunteers even the so called professional sports of soccer and rugby could'nt operate without them, so their's nothing special about the GAA

helping out your local under 10's team and playing for your county are two completely different things my friend.

You just made some daft claims about the GPA and Erins own.

Less than twenty posts and Pwnage.

0 to rattled in 2.3 seconds.

You must be sweatin with the word sweeping the nations message boards about you. People don't want to touch you lad, you're bad news.

You'd be better off retiring from the INTERNET at this stage, quit while you're behind as it were

ha ha ha, are you being serious or having a laugh Lamps. Please for your own sake, dignity and pride say you are having a laugh?
You post lies about me, fail to reply to my post about your lies and then claim victory?

You really couldn't make it up

[homohurlicus]

I think you should answer Langer Dan's first question.

if you insist. 2001 we won the munster title defeating Limerick in the park, the former home of corks senior inter-county teams. I use the word former as ye no longer have senior inter county teams since yer players are refusing to pull on the county jersey and represent their county. A very sad day that men would refuse to play for their county.

Now are you going to answer my question???

[homohurlicus]

The homo looks rattled. You'd think hidings from minnows like Wexford would harden him up a bit.

not at all some user. It take a lot more than a few novices to rattle me.
As for hidings from minnows, well the peoples republic couldn't beat us last summer and we only sent out our B team. Where does that leave ye?

[homohurlicus]

I think this could be viewed - and to quote that most loveable of Westerners Cyril Farrell - as such.

ah you'll have to explain how that equates me as saying the current refusal to play for cork is a gpa conspiracy. Looking forward to your reply Ronnie

[homohurlicus]

Proof can be provided.
provide it so otherwise people round here will continue to view you as a bullsh1tter

[homohurlicus]

Pwnage complete.this denial thing is really a serious issue for you. Maybe you should consider talking to a counsellor

[Langer Dan]

Badly rattled.

Typical Tipp man, very bitter about living in the rebels shadow.

[homohurlicus]

Im sick of this shit from bitter GAA old sweats, just because players are looking for a bit of financial support their greedy, oh ya in my day it was all about playing for the GAA and great one belief, take off the rose tinted glasses and take a look at reality..

as far as im aware every sport in the country is dependent on volunteers even the so called professional sports of soccer and rugby could'nt operate without them, so their's nothing special about the GAA

helping out your local under 10's team and playing for your county are two completely different things my friend.

hi ken, you must be really excited that the mid term break is finally here and you have a whole week off school. No more of those pesky teachers for an entire week. Have you anything exciting planned for your few days off?

I went to the effort to copy and paste rule 11 from the GAA's official guide just for you. I hope you are able to understand all the words but if there are any you dont understand just ask and i'll gladly explain them to you.

This is one of the rules that has made the GAA great for over a century. We are all volunteers and if doing voluntary works upsets you in anyway well because you are a volunteer you are entitled to walk away (just like yer former senior intercounty teams have done)

Oh i see the word "agent" is mentioned below, thankfully none of the Cork hurlers have one of the them:rolleyes:

Amateur Status
The Association is an Amateur Association. A player, team,
official or member shall not accept payment in cash or in
kind in conjunction with the playing of Gaelic Games. A

himself/itself to any agent other than those officially
approved by Central Council. Expenses paid to all

oh right so brian corcoran was never/is not a member of the GPA, never did an advertising campaign for them. And of course current members of the Cork panel (and i use the word current since they are refusing to play for their county) from the Erins Own club are not members of the GPA.


Rebelred can you please enlighten me as to how the above post, post 75, equates the current players strike with the GPA? if you can't then i suggest post 148 of this thread is "completely inaccurate, ill informed bullshit"

You are trying to link the strike with GPA members, it's nothing to do with the GPA. It's there for all to see man. You're the kind of PR fella that would get a position on the Cork County Board. Bob Honohan would love you.

i fail to see the connection. The GPA have nothing to do with this strike apart from a press release saying they were 100% behind the players etc but anything else from a players representative body would be startling in the extreme.

My point about the GPA is that they are all about money and little or nothing else despite the odd references from dessie and donal. The grants are going to be refused at congress, no doubt about that. Will they threaten strike again when the majority of inter county teams will be preparing for the championship? If they do we'll see their true membership then

Tried the Grown up debate but as soon as I mentioned anything remotley against the players the personal abuse started. I had the audacity to suggest that some players got jobs and complimentry cars because they were inter-county players, somehow this meant I was a wum

I think if we can all get back to issue at hand everyone will be better off for it.

Homo, being from Tipp, I can't believe you give much of a shit about the cork team so I would be suspicious of your motives, it would suit Tipp for us not be be involved this year.

first of all there is not one gaa man in the country delighted to see cork in this sorry state. I want to be clear about that.

secondly for the first time since nicky english there is real optimism in tipp about our future esp with our underage coming so strong in recent years. Liam Sheedy is a very modern manager and when the draw was made for the munster championship we were delighted as we finally feel we are capable of beating cork. I genuinely believe we'll beat ye next june and that is why i want teddy to retire asap so that we can take on yer best team. If we do beat cork i want it to be on merit, no sinde remarks about strikes etc. if we dont beat ye this year remember we are coming very strong and will be the next major power in hurling.

as regards the strike i believe at the end of the day its a power struggle between the players and frank murphy. The players are correct in their cause but their actions i feel are wrong, they should not have been so quick to use the nuclear option. I feel its wrong to refuse to wear the county jersey what with it being such a mighty honour. My God what i'd give to run out of the tunnel in thurles with a tipp jersey on my back and look up at the sea of blue and gold in the killinan end. On the other hand i do understand that the strike is probably the only card the players can play but its reassuring to know the players are still training in small groups (i'm very friendly with one of the stars of the cork team so i know more than most of ye here;) ) so at least they are keeping fit and wont be too far behind other teams in terms of preparation etc when/if this is solved.

I cant for the life of me understand why Teddy and his selectors are refusing to quit, their balls of brass stance is causing no end of trouble frustration etc for the players, cork fans and gaa fans everywhere. Even if the players at this stage agreed to play for him he'd have no respect among them as before he has even set a foot in there he has lost the dressing room.

I feel a compromise would be whats done in tipp. a five man committee pick the bainisteoir and then inconjunction with each other the manager and county board choose the selectors therefore keeping both sides happy.

[Outsider]

They were always going to vote that way, I think he meant for the footballers to insist they go back

[homohurlicus]

by the way it wont suit tipp this year not to have cork involved, going into a munster final with no competitive game since our last league match would be a disaster. Still though it could make up for 1941 (",)

[go on the dan]

[corkoniense]

But the players don't want to pick the manager this time either Outsider. They just refuse to play under a guy who forfeited their respect (and the respect of most football people in cork) when he took the job in a climate where the players had asked for any manager to refuse til the whole thing was sorted.

I have a compromise.
1. Teddy and his men to step down, for the good of the GAA in cork.
2. Allow the board selection committee to pick a new manager.
3. Allow the board selection committee and the manager to come to an agreement over the selectors, with a power of veto given to both the board and the manager. (i.e the board don't want billy morgan, fair enough even tho they were gutless in the way they went about it.)
4. The selection committee must not contain Mr. Bob Honohan, who started the whole thing off by his underhand backstabbing of Billy Morgan and who later poisoned the debate by suggesting the players were all on the make.
5. As the county board has already conceded it, revert back completely to the system of the last 5 years at the end of the season.

So what are you saying, that he just threw in this random question completely unrelated to the Cork "strike". No dice lad

Look at what some lads really on the inside have said Homo, Frank and/or his cronies used to get to virtually run the team themsleves by putting in their yes men, all the way down to Frank actually making substitutions.

All the players wanted was a manager(selected by the board) to have his own team around him.

So they don't care who the manager is? No wonder this isn't resolved.It's too confusing. I thought the TH issue was a huge stumbling block but now apparently it's not an issue

jesus christ.

I'm guessing you aren't from Cork either

Oh Christ the whole not from Cork thing again, I've had this row three times already, I'm from Castlemartyr. I go home by the Two Mile Inn every evening to avoid the roadworks after work. Everytime I have even the smallest opinion that doesn't tie in with the players being gods I get this wum etc. crap

god this is like explaining it to a simpleton. The players problem was with the process, not the person. It only became personal once Bob and Frank appointed Teddy.
If Teddy had simply refused to take the post like the 6 others asked before him, then this issue would have been resolved months ago. As soon as he accepted the post he lost the team. It's not hard to understand.

Picking the manager and choosing the process is not a million miles apart.
Before all this was Teddy considered a good man for the job? If he was had he any problem with the selectors?

1. They are two completely different things! You put the right process in place and the best man will get the job. He will then be free to pick the best available selectors and backroom team. Look at what Donal O'Grady and John Allen achieved with this system. If the players walked into the negotiations and said they'll only play under a certain manager then that would be wrong, but they have never done this, ever.

2. Teddys name didn't even appear in any of the predictions prior to the appointment. He's a good coach but there were better choices there. I know for a fact he only got asked the night before he was appointed. He was the 7th choice. The first 6 all said they wouldn't take the post while the stand off with the players was ongoing. Holland should have done this too.

Honestly Outsider I hope you're learning here, because we've still to hear a decent point in favour of the board changing the system of appointing selectors from you.

A lot of you are missing the point when lads go on here who are against the strike.
I can only speak for myself but the reason I don't post a decent post favouring the change is because I'm not in favour. I just think a player strike is way OTT at this stage. In 2002 it was a much more important issue.
Its not like its the first time a CB fucked up.

No he was not considered a good man for the job. The clonakilty players revolted against his management (they are ambitious and they wanna win!), and he was a perihpheral figure by the time they were knocked out controversially by nemo rangers.

Of the selectors, Diarmuid O Donovan managed the Cork minors for 4 years, winning one munster title in 2005 with a late goal and going out in the AI semi final. the same teams won 4 U21 munsters in a row, reached to AI finals and won the second of them last year under Tony Leahy.

Liam Hodnett put himself forward for the manager's job 8 times for his clubs. 8 times he was knocked back. Why?

Teddy MacCarthy is a hero for most of us, especially those growing up late 80 early 90s, but he has not been involved in football for years, while he was involved with the douglas hurlers last year, when they were relegated. He is also going to prison, so with all due respect, i'm sure his mind is on other things.

Mick O Loughlin. Oh dear.

The thing is, while the players have objected to these guys because they took the job when everybody was asked not to take it, the players do not have the right to question their credentials. To their credit, they never have. However, as ordinary members of the Cork GAA public, we are entitled to question their credentials. And we are entitled to question the board's motives.

So, as an ordinary player, club member and match follower in Cork, I ask: Why did the board appoint people who, on the evidence, are clearly not the best men to manage and select the cork team?

Now there's a rhetorical question if I ever saw one.

Listen you wouldn't be labelled a WUM in the first place if you weren't so pigheaded in your opinions.
It's obvious to anyone who's kept up with this story that the players issue with TH isn't a football issue, it's a strike issue. Had he not accepted the job while the players were in dispute with the CB then it wouldn't have become an issue.
How this can be construed as the players picking their own choice of manager is why you keep being accused of Wumming, because that's exactly what you're at.
As to whether he would have been offered the job under normal circumstances we'll never know now.

[SMALLBALL]

Why are the players looking for players to be on a panel to pick maangers so. Blatant power grab by the GPA, thats what it is.

We've now explained the position on at least 20 occasions yet we stll have beauts claiming that the players want to pick the manager.

Why would I want to edit that post? He is going to prison and that's in the public domain, right? I am aware that he is appealing his conviction and I suspect he might get a more lenient (non-custodial) sentence, but isn't it the case that someone who appeals a sentence is guilty until proven innocent? The opposite to the normal state of affairs?

At any rate, I wasn't in any way making a character judgment on teddy mac, I just suggested that with his recent conviction and his upcoming appeal, his mind most certainly should be on other things than taking the cork job in crazy circumstances.

They weren't looking for that, it was one of the concessions offered by the cb because they weren'r offering the one thing the players wanted th to step down and a review of the issue nxt year. If a new management team were selected and the issue was reviewed next year they would end the strike without all the other cb concessions which were offered because the cb stated that they couldn't require th to step down

Can you honestly say that TH would be able to get the best out of the players available to him, that this is a power grab and it would be in the interests of cork football this year that he is our manager?

It beggars belief that people are STILL trotting out 'they want to pick the manager' Liv, it really does.


Even the most perfunctory glance at any of the threads devoted to the subject HERE give a full explanation of the players position. There are posts about how often this has been explained!! yet you have people who are still incorrectly putting forth this falsehood.

Honestly, anyone that hasn't a full grasp of the situation at this stage, considering the level of media coverage is really half a retard.

if they wished to have no say in who the manager was then they would be prepared to work with whoever the manager was regardless of who appointed him. as it was they said "we are going to go on strike if the board appoint a manager". that is them effecting a grab for power. albeit from the greatest bunch of morOns ever assembled this side of a Fianna Fail Ard Fheis.

classic example of the laws of supply and demand. massive demand for a sucessful team, but the supply is just one. hence they can exert more power than they otherwise would be able to.

No, completely wrong.

[liv]

It wasn't we are going on strike if you appoint a manager. It was we are willing to go on strike if this issue isn't dealt with. Appointing a manager personalised the issue, exacerbated the problem and ensured that the players would be subject to the disputed rule for the next two years. They said that they would not work with a manager appointed in this way, had the board addressed the issue with the players and then appointed TH. They would have played under him. They are not looking for any say in the appointment of the next manager.

rebelred, langer dan and 3pp is the case around here that if someone says "serious pwnage" etc without any actual evidence to back this up it still counts? I only ask because ye seem to do it all the time. Ye keep telling me i'm rattled etc but ye never have any evidence to back this up. Such school yard antics would not be accepted on any respectable gaa forum.
