Onlykerry and I exchanged a couple of posts this am. I am unable to locate them. I wonder if Moderator could confirm if they have been deleted? Yes...tongue-in-cheek insults don't cut it here.

All three games are being streamed according to the Munster GAA website. mallow be a better venue for Kanturk v Rathmore??

So, the posts were deleted. There is an expression which says “ put a beggar on horseback and he will trample you”.
Bye, bye Kerry GAA FORUM. I will return if those posts are reinstated.

Just like beauty is in the eye of the beholder, malice must be in the mind of the receiver...or something like that.
I'm bound to act on complaints.
Nothing stopping any poster re-phrasing the original comments.

There has been a lot worse said on this forum and you have happily ignored complaints in the past so the above statement is not true.

There might have been worse said, no argument there.
I have never "happily ignored complaints".

I have had a few comments complained about over the years for one reason or another (usually Tyrone related and one Linerick related). I accepted that Admins have a job to do.
The Limerick one was a bit annoying as it was very much light-hearted as I thought. Not according to someone else though.
It would be sad to lose good contributors here just because one of their comments gets deleted.
Maybe some are getting too sensitive but I would hate for this place turning into Twitter.
Just to clarify...I didn't see the original posts but trust Admins to act in the best interests of those here.

Just to clarify...I didn't see the original posts but trust Admins to act in the best interests of those here. Wise up here - admin are unpaid and as Moderator rightly said, comments can be rephrased and which would enlighten others as to where the boundaries are. I often felt wronged though we all appear to have come to our senses, maybe we understand each another better these days. Still nobody can hold the forum to ransom. BTW just read that TCB have appointed a solicitor with a degree in Social Media to 'police', well social media channels - I honestly don't like the sound of this. Ah maybe he is familiar with the forum - if he starts fearing legal action then Veteran won't have regrets for long as the forum will cease to exist. Legal oversight will make sit all, well more legal - maybe they need to think again here? My concern is that it will get hairy when the heat comes on and there can be little doubt but that the forum in it's current format is a big asset to the GAA community and our teams.

I didnt see any of the posts in question but the Mods do a good job on this forum.
I suggest a look at the Dublin forum if you want a comparison.
With the exception of defamatory or slanderous comments they let a lot go.

The madness of sending supporters all those extra miles to a stadium with zero atmosphere and the traffic chaos that seems to prevail around that part of the city every day. Mallow was the 'go to' venue in Munster Club for years. Unless there is another game on there,you'd wonder why it was bypassed.

All three games are being streamed according to the Munster GAA website. FEOHANAGH/CASTLEMAHON GAA. Munster Junior Football Semi Final This Saturday all roads will lead to Quaid Park Coolyroe for the well anticipated clash between Castlemahon and Fossa in the Munster Junior Football Semi Final @ 1pm. Please note that there will be a one way traffic system to the match which will be coming in from Bunoke Bridge towards Quaid Park. There will be no access to Coolyroe by road from the Kilmeedy side. Please adhere to all traffic management as the Guards will be at either ends of the roads. Please leave in plenty of time to avoid missing the game as parking will be dealt with in a strict manner and you may have to walk a distance. Above is from Feohanagh/Castlemahon notes. Note that a one way traffic management system will be in place for anyone intending to travel

Apparently someone was offended and that’s all it takes now for a comment to be deleted I'm a relative newbie,there was a post early doors that I half took exception to, I just private messaged the poster and sussed out. There was no malice intended- I would envisage the vast majority here post honourably, for example I was used to HS which is a sand pit of vipers, here is very much above board. My opinion for what it is worth - if a poster offends you, either scroll on and ignore or private message... the site is well governed, it has to be for survival, other sites like An Fear Rua and The old HS are examples of what happens if the lunatics govern the asylum

Delighted Rathmore won yesterday, it's great to be a senior club once again, and in addition also having the opportunity to represent Kerry in Munster. The crux of it? I've been made aware that our Munster Club semi final against Kanturk, practically next door neighbours and at most a 30 minute drive, will be played at lunchtime in Pairc UI Caoimh on the 26th. And there's me thinking Mallow would be the worst case location, you'd wonder who makes these decisions. with all due respect, its a 70km trip in a Munster game, i completely dont see what the issue is. if my club was involved and we didnt have home advantage, I would absolutely be buzzing to be playing in PUC - a €100m stadium, no club playing should be complaining about being given a day out on that pitch. the biggest games, should be played on the biggest stages and best pitches. if you were playing a Wexford or Galway team in an AI final, would you complain about playing it in Croke Park for example?

Sounds like very comfortable wins for Rathmore and Fossa today with the games effectively over by half time.

We are a blessed as a county to have, over the last 20 years, seen all time great forwards like himself, gooch, Maurice fitz, donaghy. I know we saw plenty of top level forwards but those guys are all time greats

Kerins O’Rahillys dug deep to see off Eire Og by the minimum margin in a keenly contested game with many talking points , the main one being the dismissal of David Moran on 22mins, on two yellow cards; the cards were both contentious especially the 2nd one when David was fouled in possession, his opponent clung onto him & fell to the ground when David pushed him aside - referee quickly produced a yellow card, dismissing Moran & hopping the ball - the decision was greeted by loud booing & KO’R were now battling with 14. It turned out to be a terrific struggle with both sides guilty of poor misses, handling mistakes etc as the tension got to the players; Strand Rd did just about enough with every man a hero but special mention to Barry John Keane who seemed to be everywhere & worked himself to a standstill- honourable mentions too to Con Barrett, Ross O’Callaghan, Cormac Coffey , Jack Savage & Tommy Walsh - a final now beckons against unfancied Newcastlewest on 10th Dec with Pairc Ui Chaoimh the likely venue.

Pairc Ui Chaoimh - that's mad, who's going to go to that? Why not toss for home advantage, ensure a bit of atmosphere? Even if it was NCW, it would be handy enough for Tralee fans. PUC would be ridiclulous.

Under lights by all accounts throw in 730pm.
Tralee would be possible, not sure about NCW but their neighbours Rathkeale have lights.
They should toss for venue, ASP or Rathkeale would as an away venue would be better for both club supporters as opposed to a spin down to the nightmare venue that would be a less than half full PùC

Fully agree on it being mad to hold it in PUC - the word on Friday from Munster Council was that in the event of KO’R making the final tgat if vs NCW it would be PUC & if Clonmel Páirc na Gaeil in Limerick - hopefully that will change.

Was the lad who had Moran sent off not obstructing him as he was taking a free - I don't think David ever raised a hand like that and maybe someone was auditioning for Hollywood too and he rose the both yellows.
If I am right then that ref and indeed photographer need a kick where the sun don't shine!
