I recall Rovers making the GAA pay for a helicopter for Jayo Sherlock to make a Rovers game as he wanted to play a club match that morning. That is a 'compromise'.


The LOI is a small local league.

I don't really think your story makes the point you were intending. The fact a Shamrock player played a GAA club match on the same day as a LOI match is very small time.

A bit of Celtic tiger excess doesn't change anything.

Also,just guessing here but I'd say Jayo was on professional forms and hence was legally obliged to be available for the game.

Why? he gave them a dig-out. I'm glad they're relegated with their small-time approach. Who approaches another player from another sport like some junior outfit ?

Really hope Drogs strike on from here- a club with far more potential than Wexford will ever have.

So Galway sack their manager who delievered comfortable mid table and replace him with one who got his team relegated from the same division. Right ya are... as I said when TD got sacked, let's see if the next man can do a better job.

That's the crazy thing. Dunne had them comfortable in the division and afaik a mainly local side. I really thought he had done a very good job. Fair enough if the board were showing massive ambition in replacing him but I'd imagine this appointment will leave many underwhelmed.

Lee Chin will be scapegoated for committing himself to a GAA all-stars dinner but this tie was decided over 180 mins. And besides, Chin was only a sub in the 1st leg before coming on to score the 2nd goal, so bollix to that.

Great win for the Drogs and good to see hometown players like Brennan and Thornton score two of the goals. But where now for Wexford? I think it`ll be a long way back, with Keegan gone to Galway and their better players like Paul Murphy likely to be snapped up by PD sides. Cobh will come back stronger next season and UCD, as usual, will be there or thereabouts.

Edit

Explain how it is deserved gents ? 

The manager (who has himself shown his long term commitment to Wexford Youths.......) rang the player and asked him to play for a few weeks. Chin decided to make himself available, but only on his own terms. The manager went along with that. He could have told Chin to get lost, he wasn't having a bar of it, he wanted someone with more commitment,  but he didn't do any of that, he accepted the terms Chin asked for. It worked OK last week & Chin scored a vital goal for them. 

It would be very different had Chin played for the season & abandoned them, but he was clear from day 1 that hurling was his priority. The decision he made to go to a hurling awards ceremony was his alone to make under the terms he signed up for. I'm not sure who can or should be criticising him, if he had intentions of going back to play with them next season or something, fair enough, but he doesn't. 

Here is his own explanation of it, for what it is worth;

I think Drogheda offer more to the league than Wexford.

Never mind the fact Galway would have a bigger budget than Wexford Youths or the fact Shane Keegan worked wonders to get Wexford promoted last season in the first place.....

Seems a lot of people jumped the gun with Chin, piece by Dan Mcdonnell today saying Chin wouldn't have been in the country for either leg only for the awards, was supposed to be in Asia but then stayed because of the awards and was thus available for the first leg

Can't believe the negative comments about Chin.  He made it clear in September that he would make himself available for the remaining 6 Premier Div matches which he did.  He went further and made himself available for a further match(the first leg of the play off).  He has always made it clear that he is No 1. a GAA man and even more so a Hurling man.  If so called soccer supporters keep hounding him, we will definitely have lost another sportsman to the game we love and who can blame him.

Yeah all the crap about Chin is very undeserved. He's a better player than a good chunk of the league, who football people are driving out of the game because of his connection to the GAA. 

Sounds to me like people are just using it as another excuse for some GAA-bashing. Calling it "bog hockey", "dinner dance" etc is just petty.
