Video: May we present the wettest GAA pitch in Ireland today

Clonbur GAA Club in Galway has felt the full force of Storm Desmond.

AS FLOODING GOES, this is pretty much as bad as we’ve seen on a GAA pitch.

As Ireland and the UK are battered by Storm Desmond — resulting in the cancellation of numerous sporting events — spare a thought for Clonbur GAA Club in Galway.

Here’s what their pitch looks like this morning.

Sadly for the parish, this is not even the first time the pitch has flooded this year. Here’s what it looked like in November:

You definitely wouldn’t be going out in blades over studs on that pitch.

Thanks to Walter Holleran for sending this our way.
