Replying To Albundy19:  "Ridiculous message."
Possibly not. Happened back in the 70's. Same club.

Replying To Dunlavin4Miley:  "You make a fair point, but at the end of the day there's a culture in the club there that needs to be stamped out and clearly Rathnew themselves aren't doing anything about it. County board have been far too soft on these incidents for many many years and they need to show some balls imo"
happens to regularly and really needs at some point of action. Ideally banning players makes more sense as punishing all is not really fair. But its happening far too often at this stage

Replying To ulsterrules:  "Club should be banned from senior competitions, if the true GAA players in that club still want to play let them transfer to Glenealy,newtown,St Pats. This happens far to often with Rathnew. Playing GAA is a privillage not a right.
When the ban is over they can return to their club , atleast then they will have experienced how to behave and they players and supporters who forced them into the ban will not be welcomed back and this will help rathnew clean up it's act.

Or any other team that behaves this way across the country."
Up there with the most absurd messages I have ever read.

What's your solution? It's an ongoing problem in the club, a culture that's been allowed to fester for decades. A culture that needs to be stamped out, and bans for players clearly are not working

Agreed on above, I would like to hear the alternative as other ways do not work.
