Transfers in The GAA: Temporarily locked until the weekend.

I think you have just elevated understatement to a fine Art LL ,A true classic..... Cavan wouldnt be the ideal spot to give him a debut .

Noooooo!!!! why Cavan!!?? knew that would happen, its just more fodder for the press to keep the SJ saga dragging on!!

i love the way after the hurling match that everyone said "that's it now. done and dusted!"
then we get this draw and it's all up again. lads are a long long long way from moving on.
FFS Larry Thomkins is still an issue and tehre was no twitter, fan forums to keep that going for 20-odd years!

the question that needs answering is.....if they dont play him,cause its cavan.....and kildare lose,johnston will have left an inter county side and will not have kicked a ball for kildare....with that in mind,i think they will start him!!

I reckon he'll play some part anyway. It'll be savage pressure, in the build-up even.

Didn't get time to post this yesterday, it's what Seanie and Tommy Flaherty had to say about the hurling on Saturday and the case in general, with a bit of my opinion thrown in.

The gas thing about this saga is that when McGeezer finishes this year seanie will move back

Big cal - your talking drivel, how do you know Geezer will finish?, and SJ wont move back after all hes done to get here, this is just WUM drivel.

That was always a factor in my opposition to it. only the real dreamers (of which there are many ) would imagine hed stay when Mcgeeney and his crew are gone .

id say hes here till he finishes

he will be gone when geezer is. why oh why would he be loyal to kevins?
like when geezer is gone he may not be wanted. he cant go back home so he will be with a dub club.
lookin into the future but can't even see him go home.

No , maybe manbear pig is onto something ,maybe hes going to get into underage training , fundraising ,go on the comittee , could even run for chairman ....He has an itnerest in these matters after all ...didnt he become players rep for Cavan Gaels back around 7 0r 8 months ago...Just a blip im sure , He ll be Kevins and Coill Dubh to he marrow now . By Jasus there are some fools here .

I tell one thing I agree with here. There are some fools here Fargo.

You've never met him but yet again you are casting aspersions on the man.

People giving out about the media, the vultures in here are just as bad.

No one knows his plans, no one knows McGeeneys plan either for that matter.

Fucking Morons the lot of yee.

Bitter man fargo

Not at all with ye the whole way lads , this is the new vista , im only seeing the light myself .Merely citing his track record as an administrator , ive never met the guy and i dont think ive ever mentioned his character . It seems by the way ye are talking ye have .
As for you Fionn ,youre the very lad who d be lacing into the players on another thread and questioning their character and committment . Lads who gave everything to the cause for over a decade in some cases . But when i make a reference that you construe to be against Johnston you jump into defend him . Yeah , im going to listen to you calling anyone a vulture ,nothing surer .

I questioned their passion and will to win in relation to the match on Sunday Fargo, a far crie from the drivel you came out with above.

I have nothing but admiration for the Kildare players however performances on the field of play are open for debate.

So questioning a players will to win is not questioning their character ? , what is it then ? . As for imagining that what happened on Sunday is down to a lack of will to win , well i think that you dont have any right to call anyones post drivel if your making statements like that .

why can't we question what will happen when geezer is gone?
after all he didnt want to play with kevins at the start?!
lads i don't think anyone here can give out for questioning things that may happen in the future.
i don't think anyone is attacking SJ personally but yet lots of KE fans are up in arms defending a fella with no prvious connections to a county he saw as having a chance to win an All Ireland with.
and please no one come back and ask 'what's wrong with moving to a bigger county to win an All Ireland?!'

Flamingo of you believe fargo's comment on SJ is not a direct attack you are deluded.

It's funny you should mention the word patriotism fargo.

You don't even know the meaning of it. You back neither the manager nor the county board.

So you have to back the manager and county board to be a patriot? I despise the Irish government, does that make me anti-Irish?

I don't back the manager with regard to this transfer and I think the county board should have nipped this in the bud six months ago. As Kildare GAA people why shouldn't individuals be allowed to question our senior football management's role in this mess and how our county board have come across as spineless throughout?

This whole saga has reflected very badly on Kildare GAA so it's fair game to question their actions and/or inaction.

Lads this thread has just become a battle ground. I know it's a very important subject and posters have strong feelings either way but lets give it a few days so everyone can calm down and give themselves a bit of respite.

The thread will be open for business over the weekend so don't freak out.

I have been asked to add this article to the thread.

Thread will still remain closed until the weekend.
