The County Board Complaints Thread

[Pooman]

We are talking about 12 year olds Early, I know you’re from the Glen and it’s fair to say your opinion is fairly widespread up in Blackpool, but why are you misrepresenting player retention with a loser mentality? And why would you want to win at all costs with 12 year olds?

Early is nothing like an average Glen man, thank you very much.

Feckn whingers giving out about the County board. Get up off yer arses and do something instead of whining. Lads are all doing their best for the County- they need our help not criticism.

There is nothing worse than a backward fucker.

I not, never said that, I'm saying picking a weaker team because of keeping lesser player happy because of the class he is in is a loser mentality. You put the best team on the field to win

Since when is that 21 togged rule in?
I can remember games years ago, there could be 40+ togged.

I was at a sciath na scoil semi-final this year and there was 12 subs togged out

I'm wondering about it. There was photos online from the finals this week, it looked like more than 21 in most of them. Hard to see a rule like that being brought in if encouraging participation

It’s the attitude of fellas like this is the very reasoning behind Go games.
This can do terrible damage to young boys and girls.
As another poster put it, kids so young should play on their own terms. Have fun. All in. It’s simple- think Jumpers for goalposts

Earl is talking about semis not the final, the full squad were allowed on for all the other matches. All I know is my kid sat in the stand during the final. Was allowed on the pitch afterwards so maybe that's what you saw.

Saw a picture of St Anthony’s Sciath Squad of 36. They all hardly got a game.

Josies won the F1 Sciath na Scoil final this week saw them win it a few year ago with a serious team that included E Twomey and Ben O Connor

Beat St Patricks, who basically had a man playing with them. These refugee birth certs are hilarious.
