MONAGHAN WILL HOST Louth in Clones this Sunday after they successfully appealed the Central Hearings Committee’s decision to strip them of home advantage.
The Disputes Resolution Authority met last night and overturned the one-game penalty, imposed by the CHC after Monaghan refused to accept a €5,000 fine for their part in a brawl during last month’s NFL Division 2 game against Kildare.
The case will now revert back to the CHC to reconsider the penalty, but Monaghan said that Sunday’s game will now take place in St Tiernach’s Park as originally scheduled.
“All in Monaghan GAA look forward to the this eagerly awaited home fixture,” a statement said.
Kildare were hit with a similar €5,000 fine by the CHC but withdrew their initial appeal for fear of losing home advantage themselves.
Thank Christ I didn’t go to the bookies today
Last night is all of a sudden more bearable now
This year has had some amazing cup results…
Do city even care? Just back from a money spinner in Dubai last night.
And Southampton
City and Chelsea look to be heading out, I doubt either team will be too worried but annoyance for the fans.
Add spurs too.
What a performance by the Boro. Absolutely delighted. Tomlin destroyed Company all game. Well done lads.
Yup defo now. 4 – 2 Bradford, 2 nil M’boro.
The magic of the cup is back…. Just hope it stops for this afternoons game!
Heskey s going to come back to haunt you! Liverpool could easily trip up here. No pun intended….
Trip up today? No shlt, seen some of the results so far? Pool will easily thrash them, or get a nasty fright or defeat….
I am waiting for Mourinho to give his ‘cup games in English are special and unique talk’!!!!! I hope he does one!
He just did Graham on BBC , embarrassing is how he has described it, and he’s right to ….. LVG In !!!!!!
About time…. This reminded me of Zola v Liverpool years ago…. That Cup magic in full effect….
MON and Roy Keane should be trying to get Patrick bamford .the chaps a out and out goalscorer..

Fool
Why is he a fool Luke? You were saved by Gudjohnsen’s poor aim today , suck it up little boy
I guess the reason you Go round calling people “little boy”is because that’s what you are.
I’m really worried about being called a fool by an anonymous idiot who’s afraid to put his name to his opinion. I can call call you what I want because I’m not really saying it to you, just your childish avatar and pseudonym, grow up.
