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

The crokes management couldn't tell the ref to stop the game.

Looks like they couldn't tell they had 16 players on the field either. If they were as good as correct subs forms as they are at transfer forms then they wouldnt be in this mess.

Look they gave the forms to the linesman, he informed the ref by raising his flag. Now the ref should have ensured that both players being replaced had left the field before play resumed but he didn't. This is crokes fault??? Don't know what your comment about transfer forms is meant to convey apart from a poor attempt at humour

Well I'm sure kilmacud and the ref will get it right in the replay. One player comes off, another comes on

I hope they refuse to replay it tbphwy.

There won’t be any replay. Wouldn’t rule out the result being voided and no winner.

Tough times but at the end of the day let's not forget the important point that Crokes couldn't get half enough of it.

 

[BettyDoesMallow]

Crokes have spent so much money and left no stone unturned trying to gain any advantage in pursuit of an All-Ireland Club title, that the idea they're going to take the moral high ground and say no to a replay and the possibility of winning it is ridiculous.

They'll pay for flights for both teams to join Shane Walsh in Australia and hire out the MCG if they have to.

 

[imigrant]

Plenty of good people in Kilmacud Crokes volunteering away at the Juvenile levels same as in every club. The Shane Walsh transfer was nothing to do with them nor was a badly handled situation in the last minute of a club final.

Crokes are entitled to everyone’s respect and admiration but if they want peoples affection too as seems to be the case maybe take a look inside.

On one hand wanting to be the biggest brashest club in Ireland with massive showbiz sponsorship launches and all that and on the other hand playing the Beal Bocht at every single opportunity.

Organising games and training in 3/4 of their neighbours catchments and using the “we’re too big for our footprint” line. Then you get the “we’re a small village club like a family” line coming up to every big match. It happened to Kilkerrin-Clonbeirne this year but go and talk to any club in a five mile radius and they’d have lost half a dozen Shane Walshes to them over the years.

They can have no cribs whatsoever that people are having a bit of a snigger at their misfortune here. Couldn’t care less what happens from here on it but the sight of a fat man slipping on a banana skin will never not be funny.
