Bad for Gaelic
After paying 40e to go to see the Dubs take on Donegal, i've a right mind to approach the Donegal county board and ask fr a refund. I genuinely would not have gone if i knew Donegal would try to ruin a football, what a disgrace they are to the game.
I was delighted to read the papers on Monday that all pundits thoughts the same, and McGuinness rightly got slated from all corners. Can you imagine what would have happened if Donegal did manage to win on Sunday ?? Millions upon millions of people tune in around the world for the All-Ireland final, what impression would that have made on GAA ? I just hope that any parents who were watching that game with their children did the right thing and turned the match off, kids shouldnt be alowed watch that sort of negative tactics.
Will the GAA council bring in new hand passing rules to stop such tactics in future ? IE you can only hand pass the ball 5 times before you need to kick it to one of your players.... could that work ?? It will at least encourage teams to play football and not look like a handball game !!
