Can we learn from this redner?

You have to believe that things can only get better in the GAA when we do things like allow thousands of people to travel to a game, and call it off only 40 minutes before the throw-in.
Now it’s not like we didn’t have any notion that the pitch may not have been playable after all Tyrone’s game was called off against Donegal on Saturday and the Cavan Cork match was played in torrential rainfall.
Surely to God we can have a pitch inspection early enough in the day to prevent players and fans wasting time and money travelling to games, which are just not going to happen.
This is the second time this year that the Dubs have had this sort of misfortune.
Many travelled to Cork for the game that never was earlier this season when the Rebels were on strike so they must be well and truly fed up.
We may not have any control over the weather but we do need to put an early warning system in place so that at least something is learned from this embarrassment.
