There's an article in the Chronicle online stating Andy is considering withdrawal from this final as an option if it's to go ahead in portlaoise, citing player safety as a reason. Basically saying there's a number of issues, main one beingbut to play a second match on a pitch in current weather conditions increases the chance of injury.

Ah but..........this is the amusement element of this forum.....speculation ,and game playing (i want to see this lad playing etc.etc), Even allowing for the fact of pre season activity,but coming off such a poor performance last Sunday i expect Andy to play best available players against Westmeath. Why would he "rest" players rather than try to gain momentum with plans and even practise for the more important Rossies match? Would be a different story if we had refined our preparation in the key areas.We all know that is not the case. nobull456 (Meath) - Posts: 841 - 17/01/2018 22:38:01 2069002 Link

I agree with him also at 4pm this time of year? Meath and Westmeath both agreed to play in Mullingar, day far Leinster council have refused. Both counties disrespected here and both should withdraw. ziggy320001 (Meath) - Posts: 2432 - 18/01/2018 08:14:39 2069017 Link

Replying To royaldunne: "Hard to know if game will go ahead at this stage. We will wait and see." Yeah im hoping it will but sure look Andy will make the right decision at the end of the day. Loyalroyal17 (Meath) - Posts: 627 - 18/01/2018 10:50:00 2069044 Link
Replying To Loyalroyal17: "Yeah im hoping it will but sure look Andy will make the right decision at the end of the day." If the Leinster Council refuse to move it then both coaunties should refuse to play the fixture. Complete disrespect to both counties ziggy320001 (Meath) - Posts: 2432 - 18/01/2018 12:02:34 2069058 Link
Replying To ziggy320001: "If the Leinster Council refuse to move it then both coaunties should refuse to play the fixture. Complete disrespect to both counties" Its a sad state of affairs when our Council would rather keep a TV company happy than its provinces teams & supporters. Not even happy but when safety is a factor as well they should be ashamed of themselves. I see they are saying if the pitch is bad then Mullingar is plan no 2 which means that they can actually change it but wont. Shame on them.

Replying To royaldunne: "Totally agree." Maybe its tied up legally. Ridiculous that they got into this agreement in the first place but it is probably too late to roll back now. oldsam_newsam (Meath) - Posts: 638 - 18/01/2018 15:48:55 2069107 Link

So seems like games will called off no matter where they are played. But 4 O#clock in seems defo off Portloaise after a game has already been played. If first game in Loais gets played at all. bobkarlgees (Meath) - Posts: 1192 - 18/01/2018 15:56:52 2069108 Link
What will happen if game is called off Sunday?? Not as if we can postpone til the following week. Loyalroyal17 (Meath) - Posts: 627 - 18/01/2018 16:41:56 2069118 Link

Replying To Loyalroyal17: "What will happen if game is called off Sunday?? Not as if we can postpone til the following week." Exactly.. Both counties should refuse to play it. Leinster council once again proving that they don't care about Leinster. Once Dublin are doing the business they are happy. ziggy320001 (Meath) - Posts: 2432 - 18/01/2018 18:21:51 2069146 Link
Replying To Loyalroyal17: "What will happen if game is called off Sunday?? Not as if we can postpone til the following week." Probably leinster council will award the cup to Dublin if the game is called off...because leinster council give dublin everything !

Replying To Loyalroyal17: "What will happen if game is called off Sunday?? Not as if we can postpone til the following week." Probably postpone it until the first week that there is a break in league games. anfearbeag (Meath) - Posts: 1134 - 18/01/2018 19:34:24 2069162 Link
