Club Championships 2022/23

You'd imagine that was raised in the original appeal.

Kilmacud just making it hard on themselves now and everyone else.

The rule is very clear on it. I agree that there is little point in the appeals to CDC and then DRA.

I guess if you go to CDC and then DRA, it uses up more time. Maybe then hoping for more pressure on Glen to drop it, or to just say "yerra, no point replaying it at this stage".

On a practical level, if there was a replay they'd probably like Mannion to get more game time, possibly in the league for Dublin, and for Shane Walsh to be back from Australia.

"Due to the ongoing proceedings we as a club now do not believe the conditions exist for a replay to be contested.

"Consequently, Watty Graham’s, Glen would like to withdraw from this process," the statement continued.

"The club added that the sense of pride and respect they have for their team and management would endure.

"They have treated us to countless moments of joy, which until recently, we didn’t even know were possible.

"Watty Graham’s GAC would like to thank our members for all the support they have given to our players, management and committee.

"The club would also like to extend our sincere gratitude to all the messages of help and support we have received from throughout the country.

"We will go again. Onwards and upwards. An Gleann Abu!"

Glen have behaved impeccably during this whole process. They seem to have decided they have enough of the bullsh1t and have moved on.

Pure class - they are the only party leaving this process with their integrity and reputation intact - I wish them nothing but goodwill for the future.

Onfield result stands, Glen have withdrawn their objection.

And possibly the rulebook and how it's applied

Kilmacud now the losers, made a mistake that could have had match taken off them and wouldn't admit to it .

Gives the impression that rules were broken, with clear penalties in the rule book …but the GAA are ok with this, their own rule book being broken

A dangerous precedent, I wonder will we see more extra players being thrown on in tight situations given….big rewards and no recourse

Glen 0 Kilmacud 0 GAA 0

And so say all of us.!! well said. Good Luck to Glen going forward.

The whole country will be cheering them on next year.

Glen 0 Kilmacud 1 GAA 1

It won't be talked about in a fortnight.

Kilmacud are All Ireland champions 2023, & that will be forever in the history books.

Makes a change from saying they would refuse to fulfill a replay if ultimately ordered to do so I suppose, which we all now know they never ever said.

It must be very frustrating to all those with anti Dublin / anti super club blah blah blah prejudices that Kilmacud didn't rise to any of the incessant baiting, kept their counsel, didn't play any PR games and just followed the process Glens objection kicked off to calmly put their viewpoint to the CCCC and they have ultimately prevailed.

Mess of a process but the right outcome.

Hahaha gas, the same people on here saying it'll be remembered for the controversy and not kilmacuds win were saying if Glen were given the trophy that's all it will be remembered in the history books. Haha cry more.

Kilmacud won with 17 men on the field and recieved no sanction for that. I'll remember it and every Kilmacud player will looking at their medals despite what you say.

And yes, I think Glen would feel as you say, they acted as only they could...for the integrity of the game itself and for that they are the moral winners here.
