2008 Walsh Cup

The 2008 Walsh Cup was a hurling competition played by the teams of Leinster GAA and two teams from Ulster GAA. The competition differs from the Leinster Senior Hurling Championship as it also features further education colleges and it also featured two teams from Ulster. The first four losers of the competition entered the Walsh Shield.

gollark: Basically, it seems very much as if stuff autocrafts, then it vanishes.
gollark: I've probably managed to do the first successful autolosing of items.

gollark: > tries to implement feature which shouldn't be awfully complicated> wants to rewrite entire project in different programming language
