Any word on Alan Forde return ? bobkarlgees (Meath) - Posts: 1192 - 21/01/2018 08:21:26 2069575 Link
Game off. It's a pity but it's understandable royaldunne (Meath) - Posts: 17035 - 21/01/2018 09:20:29 2069580 Link
Replying To royaldunne: "Game off. It's a pity but it's understandable" Is there a point in even playing it now? It's a pre season tournament and it's in the way of the league now. ziggy320001 (Meath) - Posts: 2432 - 21/01/2018 09:42:06 2069582 Link
Replying To ziggy320001: "Is there a point in even playing it now? It's a pre season tournament and it's in the way of the league now." Should have been postponed until after the league. 16/17 Feb was supposed to be a rest week for our players. Now we have games non stop for 6 weeks. bert09 (Meath) - Posts: 1668 - 21/01/2018 09:49:19 2069584 Link
Replying To bert09: "Should have been postponed until after the league. 16/17 Feb was supposed to be a rest week for our players. Now we have games non stop for 6 weeks." Why bother play it? The focus on the league now, this is only a pointless distraction. Nobody will care once the league starts. ziggy320001 (Meath) - Posts: 2432 - 21/01/2018 10:03:09 2069591 Link

Yes, it could be played in the lull period between league and championship. oldsam_newsam (Meath) - Posts: 638 - 21/01/2018 10:17:15 2069595 Link
Will common sense prevail in the venue for the refixture now that tv scheduling won't dictate Royalio11 (Meath) - Posts: 750 - 21/01/2018 10:27:51 2069596 Link

I wouldn't mind having a game to look forward to between league and championship. bert09 (Meath) - Posts: 1668 - 21/01/2018 10:39:39 2069598 Link
Replying To ziggy320001: "Is there a point in even playing it now? It's a pre season tournament and it's in the way of the league now." Has to be fulfilled from what I gather, that been said I would use the b team in mullingar (I'd say that's where it will be ) royaldunne (Meath) - Posts: 17035 - 21/01/2018 11:01:50 2069607 Link

You can't just abandon the competition at the final stage. It will be played on the 17/18 February same weekend as the McKenna Cup and Connacht league finals. It now means Meath will be playing eight weeks in a row and nine if we make the league final. Toney (Meath) - Posts: 294 - 21/01/2018 11:28:43 2069615 Link

Hopefully we play a different 15/20 Players will need that break ziggy320001 (Meath) - Posts: 2432 - 21/01/2018 11:58:04 2069624 Link
Replying To ziggy320001: "Why bother play it? The focus on the league now, this is only a pointless distraction. Nobody will care once the league starts." My feelings exactly, and sure what if we don't fulfil the fixture? What actually happens? If it's a case of a serious fine or thrown out of the championship then ok, play the 3rd team or u20, but if it's just a case of 'ah now come on Meath, sure yiz have to play it' then.....naaaah.

That's a bummer that the matches were called off. I was looking forward to watching them on TV. But common sense prevailed. It is a dirty day out there. OLLIE (Louth) - Posts: 12224 - 21/01/2018 12:42:29 2069631 Link
Replying To OLLIE: "That's a bummer that the matches were called off. I was looking forward to watching them on TV. But common sense prevailed. It is a dirty day out there." You will have to do something else now. I was going to suggest the Munster game but thats but back too ? Pub ? bobkarlgees (Meath) - Posts: 1192 - 21/01/2018 12:53:03 2069633 Link

A bit surprised to see a large pool of water in one part/ corner of Portlaoise pitch- the Navan pitch would have been playable and surprised that it was not switched there and the journey would have been easier for Westmeath. browncows (Meath) - Posts: 2189 - 21/01/2018 13:53:36 2069657 Link
