From my understanding, games will be played, and championship in Longford will continue as scheduled, with appeal from Carrickemond being dealt with in the background. If Carrickedmond were to be successful in an appeal (they will not win an appeal) hypothetically, games would be replayed / brought back to this quarter final stages again with different match ups. So Longford Championship will go ahead this weekend. There's some silver lining for anyone involved. WmeathWarrior (Westmeath) - Posts: 32 - 10/09/2024 08:45:55 2569197 Link 0 |
They can't go ahead. What if a player gets injured or sent off? And then they bring it back to the Q/F and a team is missing a player when they shouldn't be. That's just ridiculous.

I agree with you, it would be as Ridiculous as it sounds, but were Carrickedmond to win an appeal (as I've said, that will never ever happen) that would be one of the scenarios. Games will go ahead this weekend. Carrickedmond will not win an appeal at any level that has been addressed as human error and has been amended by a referee. Total waste of time. The Carrickedmond Clubs appeal will go ahead in the background and will not affect the Longford Championship. WmeathWarrior (Westmeath) - Posts: 32 - 10/09/2024 10:44:30 2569225 Link 0 |
Nothing would surprise me with the Longford CB!! Spinx (Longford) - Posts: 1278 - 10/09/2024 12:02:26 2569236 Link 0 |
Surely in the chair of CCC has said the games are going ahead he is very sure Carrickedmond are unfortunately not in a position to win appeal at any level? Why would they take the chance for maybe the sake of a week, also that same person has sat on many committees and hearings in head office so he must be very confident, it said in article that the ccc decision was unanimous also. Realistically all the teams now have 1 session to prepare for there opposition.. #Putitup (Longford) - Posts: 39 - 10/09/2024 18:36:49 2569305 Link 0 |
The current situation seems to make a bit of a joke of the appeals process though. The Longford CB are basically saying you can appeal all you want but you are not going to win. Considering they are basically the defence in the appeals process it seems very strange that they can predict the outcome of process before it is completed. The Qtr finals will be set as a direct result of the appeal. It almost brings the entire process into disrepute that one of the parties is proceeding without knowing the outcome.
