Club transfers 2024

[Pooman]

How have I moved goalposts?


The transfer forms don’t include the reason for transfer. If they did I’d imagine the most common reason would be ‘I want to play with my friends in school’.

Not sure that’s a good enough reason.

No wonder so many people hate the GAA.

It’s a sad state of affairs if people hate the GAA because clubs want to hold on to their best players.

Transfers aren’t forbidden at all in Cork. They are allowed under very reasonable circumstances. 48 weeks is nothing if you play your last game in August.

Yes. I don’t think I’ve said anything to contradict that?

so Cill na Martra should have restrictions on juvenile players coming in to the club?

They have 44 kids in the local national school yet they are fielding independent club teams at 12, 14, 16 & 18

What if a club like the Glen got relegated last year and again this year at adult level? Would they then be allowed transfer in who they want?

QED. Fuck the kids, I'll look after Brian Dillons. Dear God.

I’ve deliberately left my club out of this conversation.

You seem to be well knowledgeable on CNM so can I ask how many transfers in have they had per year recently?

tell that to a 15 year old, its 1/15th of his life!

And you want to double that timeframe?

oh dear

It actually a sadder state of affairs that people are very happy to banish kids to the sidelines for a year because of selfish club interests

And I respect your opinion. I doubt we’ll ever agree.

I’ll ask you the same as I asked Henrys.

What are your suggestions for transfer rules?
