THE GAA HAVE clarified that there is no home and away system in operation for tomorrow morning’s All-Ireland hurling qualifier Round 2 draw.
Last night’s victors Cork, Clare and Dublin will be in the draw along with Limerick who triumphed in today’s qualifier tie in Mullingar.
Both games will take place next Saturday 11 July and it’s been announced that ‘venues are at the discretion of CCCC’.
That creates the prospect of a double-header at a neutral venue with Semple Stadium the likely to be the frontrunner to host the games.
The pairing of Clare v Limerick is not permitted as they have already clashed in this summer’s championship in May’s quarter-final tie. That means Cork cannot face Dublin either.
The draw takes place tomorrow morning on RTE Radio 1′s Morning Ireland programme along with the draw for Round 3A in the All-Ireland football qualifiers with Roscommon, Longford, Kildare and Fermanagh all involved there.
The delusion continues
You stay as long as you want Brendan. Another 26 years would be great.
“I will do my best with what I am working”. because what youre working with had nothing to do with you? jog on.
I cringe every time I hear or read anything out of Rodgers’ mouth now. He has lost his way as a coach. The fans that he didn’t lose after Stoke are now beginning to turn on him.The media smells blood, and will keep putting the boot in.
Even if he wins the Derby, and the games after that, he is now only ever one or two defeats from “crisis”.
Sooner or later, Rodgers’ had to go – and it is probably sooner.
The big question in the media is “who replaces Rodgers?”. A bigger, more relevant question is: who in the LFC hierarchy is qualified to make the decision on who replaces Rodgers? The answer, fatally for Liverpool fans’ ambitions, is no-one. That’s a much bigger problem, and a harder one to resolve.
big sam is the man or Tony Mowbray
so much money spent and they are rebuilding again? id be pretty pissed and start with sacking this bluffer.
Only reason he is still in a job is because the Board haven’t agreed a deal yet with anyone else to manage the club. Dead man walking is Rodgers.
Totally agree that he is a dead man walking – everyone knows it.
Here’s the thing, though: who on the board knows anything about football? Henry and Werner don’t. Ayre is a commercial guy, really, with limited clout. Mike Gordon seems to be FSG’s “LFC guy” – he is a hedge fund manager. That leaves Dalgleish, if he is even involved.
I’m sure they have a few former players on the other end of a phone if they need advice, there intelligent people the yanks, the thing about them is, if they don’t understand something they will always seek out information off people to find out. It’s a business for them. I’d let Rodgers go and bring in Kenny and Carra for the interim and write off this season, if it’s not possible to get a Klopp or Ancelotti now.
Look at recent history of managers. Rodgers Hodgson Kenny. Ancelotti is to expensive maybe 6 or 7 mill a year. I just don’t see fsg spending the dough on a manager.
The big problem is a lack of vision. FSG bought LFC because it was going cheap, but they never had – and still don’t seem to have – a strategy for the club, apart from “sell it at a profit”.
Klopp, Ancelotti – even Guardiola! – won’t win anything at LFC until the vision and institutional leadership is sorted out. That, and increasing the wage bill, are necessary if LFC is to compete for anything ever again.
Should of gone last season but offered his backroom instead
Rumour is he’s gone by the end of October.
Have.
I think he should be worried… This Liverpool looks worst the last year and this time he cannot blame Balotelli…
Loads of stories coming out over twitter Yesterday evening, can’t see him being there come the end of the month.
Lose tomorrow, and he’ll be gone Monday
gone next week anyway if the rumours are true
