It was human error. The notion that refs go out and try to manufacture results in order to suit a particular agenda is laughable nonsense. avonali (Dublin) - Posts: 1974 - 01/07/2019 13:52:36 2203563 Link

God knows what it will be next week that the journos drag up to try sling a bit of muck at Dublin. After a weekend of cracking GAA action this clickbait clown decides to write this piece of nonsense!! TrueBlue35 (Dublin) - Posts: 206 - 01/07/2019 14:47:23 2203623 Link

Considering Galway's highly publicized mishandling of funds and forking out funding to its Inter-county teams that exceeds nearly every county in the country I think you playing the financial card is a bit rich. jimbodub (Dublin) - Posts: 20600 - 01/07/2019 15:50:19 2203687 Link

Replying To legendzxix: "State Aid will be home to Cork in their first game before taking on Roscommon in a neutral venue. State Aid should have their semi-final place secure by the time they travel to Omagh, which should allow them field a State Aid B team to rest up ahead of the semi-finals."
