Earlier this year I said that the decision to allow Cork to play in this year’s National Leagues after they had missed their first two games would come back to bite the Association in the rear.
And it hasn’t gone away you know. Wexford, whose hurlers have been consigned to relegation to next year’s Division 2, are to press ahead with an objection, which will now go to the Disputes Resolution Authority.
Technically I think the Model County are right however, they and the other relegated county Antrim got to play the Rebels, played a full fixture programme and couldn’t have caught the others even if they had not been awarded the points for the Cork games.
I believe that Cork should not have been allowed to compete in the first place but once that decision was made Wexford were on a level playing field with the rest.
I think the Model men should take their oil, their hurlers aren’t good enough for the revamped Division 1.
However, no matter what happens to their objection at the DRA this probably won’t be the end of this saga as I’m sure that teams affected by Cork’s results in football might go the route of a hearing and possibly with more justification than the Wexford hurlers.
