Cork Hurlers - Part 2

Lads the fucking snobbery is unreal. It’s a thread to discuss the cork hurlers.

Some people for various reasons aren’t involved in gaa clubs. The “wait til the premier league” kicks off crap is tiresome tbh.

Being a soccer fan doesn’t lessen a person’s support of our county hurling team.
Oh Jesus the Wokeratti are in now. Like Come on goi's this is Hurling Country..
 
BBAWs I say your maths slightly flawed there and I've said same to my friends in other clubs who made claims.
That number is what was given out by Sars maybe.
26 Stand and 16 Terrace was the original allocation for a Senior Affiliation that's 42.
You claim 24 is allocated due to Pat JOC and Colm.
For every player the club has on the panel they receive 20 per player. So that's 40.
Plus the discretion of County Board for management member.
Plus the extra allocation of Terrace tickets received by clubs on the Thursday/Friday.
I imagine Glanmire Football club might have made a deal with Sars too.
But 84 does not add up by all accounts.
I will be getting straight onto Mr Chairman.

That's the same reply my buddy gave me when I told him no way as he gave me an absurd number that his senior club got....
My Phone went 10 mins after, he somehow had got lucky after contacting the Secretary of the club.
Could have been a coincidence too.....
He later clarified after the game that X Amount of tickets were given to committee members etc and that the Y amount he claimed were the ones raffled to general members.

The truth always comes out in the end, Clonakilty and Cobh GAA only ones I saw with a post on their socials. There could be more but that's all I saw.
My own club remained tight lipped on the exact allocation and who exactly got them.
 
how is it not fair to Cork.
Its 100% the same for everyone.
The lack of awareness of this line of thinking is extraordinary.

You come from a county that is in the fortunate position of having the resources to win titles in both codes and you want to remove tickets from across the country going to places that haven't a hope of ever being in even a semi final.
Whats extraordinary is you missing or choosing to miss the point.

Cork has advantages in terms of playing numbers yes no one is debating this. We in Cork come from a county where the fan has a signicantly less chance of obtaining a Al final ticket than the vast majority of other counties. Any rational person can acknowledge this. Its not the end of the world, its just the way it is.

We have 3 of the fastest forwards in Robbie O Flynn, Jack O Connor and Shane Kingston.

Shane seems destined to be a sub but will obviously push to start.

I hope Robbie and Jack will have good club championships because injuries have really plagued both of them in recent seasons.

Cunningham and maybe Healy might push on also.

Both Cunningham and Mullins were impacted by a series of injuries.

If we can get these quality players fully fit and at their best form, then it'll make a huge difference

We aren’t one bit interested in Clare round here bud.
Find some friends on the Clare forum.
