I probably wouldn't bother playing either if in their shoes. I'd just hand back cup and let the gaa do whatever they want after that.

Can you be suspended from a competition you have not yet qualified for?

You can. Oulart from Wexford have been

What happens then? No official winners

I don't know!! Presume so. A blank line in the Roll of Honour!!

KC broke the rules by having 16 men on the field,so they should have been kicked out ,yet they are offered a replay and more than likely they will refuse the replay.

Is there any responsibility with the linesman or the fourth official? What more infractions of the rules or mistakes will lead to replayed games? Umpires waving wides that are scores?

No they didn't. The linesman and the ref fucked up here. Crokes are dead right not to give them a replay. That Glen crowd are classless.

Spot on. KC may have broken the rules technically speaking, but they’re no more guilty than any team that takes advantage of a poor officiating decision.

It’s no different to 2021 county final when a Barrs man dived to win an equalising free at the end. If we’re so adamant that results have to be that far above reproach then surely that game should have been replayed.

And don’t get me started on the multitude of other occasions that the men in green and red have been undone by dubious officiating

So basically it’s only breaking the rules if you’re not caught at the time?

The future of the sport should be interesting.

Quite possibly, but there's no moral high ground for them if they're doing it because they'll have a weakened side.

It was up to the ref and linesman to stop play til the player had exited the playing area, they didn't.

And the Crokes management were responsible for ensuring their admin was in order. It wasn't.
