So the County Leagues throw in this weekend. I wonder will any of the county panel be allowed to play with their teams given no county game until Sunday 13th! Some of the squad have had limited football and it might be of benefit to get a decent club game in! I doubt it though! Royalblufill (Meath) - Posts: 480 - 03/03/2022 11:20:04 2403590 Link

Jason Scully, James McEntee, Jack O'Connor, David McEntee, Keith Curtis and James O'Hare all played some part in the cup competitions so I'd imagine players with not much game time will be playing club this weekend LeitrimRoyal99 (Meath) - Posts: 1464 - 03/03/2022 12:00:17 2403602 Link

Anyone that hasn't started or gotten substantial game time will be released and allowed to play, they always are to be fair, after that it's down to each player if they want to tog or not. ratlag (Meath) - Posts: 557 - 03/03/2022 12:18:47 2403607 Link

None of the Ratoath lads with county played last night in league - wasted €5!! Haha ASaminthehand (Meath) - Posts: 422 - 05/03/2022 15:06:29 2403897 Link
Can anyone explain why the Meath CCC cannot manage to schedule the entire league program (day/date/time) from the start to the finish of the leagues? The juvenille CCC can manage this. As it stands clubs get around 8-10 days notice of what day/time a league game is on. Not good enough for lads trying to organise work around games. Also it is being reported that they are going to have all football league games on Tuesdays going forward from round 4. It just beggers belief that they can keep changing things at a stroke of a pen mid season. BigJoe14 (Meath) - Posts: 935 - 29/03/2022 10:24:46 2407974 Link

Hasn't been a problem in previous years. Can't see why it would be now. royaldunne (Meath) - Posts: 19449 - 29/03/2022 13:11:35 2408069 Link

Ah no that cant happen A Fixture planner was set out with games at weekend it cant be changed mid stream glenny (Meath) - Posts: 1108 - 29/03/2022 21:51:31 2408241 Link
Why are these games moved to tuesdays now? Two days after hurling league games instead of 7 and puts lads under pressure to get out of work early. What is the point of a fixture planner at all? hurlit (Meath) - Posts: 416 - 30/03/2022 09:50:30 2408258 Link
Are the league tables being updated anywhere? Thestaters (Meath) - Posts: 13 - 04/04/2022 11:07:07 2409454 Link
https://meath.gaa.ie/fixtures-results/?countyBoardID=22&compID=170713&leagueTable=y League tables here. For some reason Meath.GAA website doesn't have a drop down for the league tables but they are being updated when you look at results/fixtures page Up4deMatch (Meath) - Posts: 20 - 04/04/2022 13:08:43 2409506 Link
Replying To Thestaters: "Are the league tables being updated anywhere?" On the results section of meath website, if you click on team/match it will bring you to table. , surely it would be possible to make it a bit more user friendly Footnote (Meath) - Posts: 66 - 04/04/2022 13:30:06 2409517 Link
Do the CCC think players have no lives or jobs at all? Fixing the next round of league games for the Tuesday evening after a Bank Holiday is a bit much. And also a starting time of 7:15pm? BigJoe14 (Meath) - Posts: 935 - 08/04/2022 13:26:12 2410248 Link
What is going on with the club league fixtures at the moment? It appears the goalposts keep moving week to week. Games moving to Tuesdays with a quarter past seven throw in time is a bit of a joke, especially after a Bank Holiday weekend, where players can't now really enjoy themselves. There appears to be a big rush to get the league wrapped up early. Teams will be playing friendlies for the months of June and July. BigJoe14 (Meath) - Posts: 935 - 13/04/2022 09:07:52 2410775 Link

Dual clubs getting a really short straw with this change of fixtures and a league tuesdays. The hurling week is now gone , instead its hurling weeknd. Players already getting injured , crazy stuff.

I was at Kildalkey and Trim yesterday, tough physical game, and I could count at least 10 of those Trim lads that will be playing on Tuesday in the football league. County board need to put dual players welfare to the fore, but that would make too much sense! Meathman678 (Meath) - Posts: 63 - 25/04/2022 16:21:17 2413160 Link
