Cooney: Carlow will get MacCarthy Cup reprieve despite ‘relegation’ row
The hurling championship has been thrown into disarray since the DRA’s ruling on Saturday morning that a Westmeath motion passed by Congress last April calling for a one-up, one-down system of promotion and relegation was out of order.
Two relegation ‘semi-finals’ between Clare and Wexford, in Portlaoise, and Offaly and Antrim, in Parnell Park, proceeded regardless on Saturday but the GAA announced on Monday that the final had been postponed and that the matter will now be dealt with by Central Council.
