Are StThomas gone as well?Ballyhale beaten today
Yes because Croke Park didn’t want to have hundreds of cases, Keady was unlucky he got caught but at the same time he broke the rules and paid the biggest price of allFrom what i read, the amnesty was offered a few weeks later,
Correct. I once heard GAA rules being compared to Fr Ted."Breaking the rules" can be a very nuanced thing in the world of CLCG. If he was from Cork I have no doubt Feank would have got him off
No . Beat Craughwell handy yesterday.Are StThomas gone as well?
