Without the internet you would know nothing

If you are going to be a wum stu then at least make it good .

**SkStu** · 27/09/2010, 1:32 AM

if you're going to be a Fingal fan, Lep, then stop being so sensitive.

**The Lep** · 27/09/2010, 11:25 AM

If you are going to be a wum stu then at least do it on topic and not just because a Fingal fan has replied to thread that has nothing to do with Fingal.

Jesus God, that Fingal penalty decision is one of the worst I've ever seen.

Not a patch on the one Crowe got for Bohs in Belfield two years ago for falling over the ball, even he looked embarrassed.

Didn't see MNS, did they show the stone waller he DIDNT give 5 minutes after that?

**The Lep** · 27/09/2010, 8:15 PM

Yep. It was a soft peno we had with the feedback i got was that they thought it was a free out or the peno was for a hand ball which wasnt shown on MNS ( meaning that a hand ball wasnt seen ). Drogheda was unlucky not to get one in the second half.

The referees school of exellance was at our A championship side on saturday and i asked one of the assessors if Buttimer was going for re training as he is usless. The answer was that a few people have said that to them. Question is, does the match day assessors ignore his performance or does the FAI ignore the assessors reports?

Alright! Relax!! It was a joke. What are you? His mammy?!

**pineapple stu** · 28/09/2010, 9:14 AM

Funny thing is you've reacted the exact same way for people making jokes at Bohs.

(But I agree with you here. Lep - it was a joke. Can we get back on the topic of the bigger joke?)

**The Lep** · 28/09/2010, 10:50 AM

I understand that it was a poor attempt at humour but a pointless one seeing that the thread isnt about Fingal.

Not trying to rile anyone here but does that mean you've been a fan of another LOI club (from the 2002 Buttimer comments) or just a keen observer?

**The Lep** · 28/09/2010, 11:35 AM

I was reading through the back pages of foot.ie and saw the same type of comments made about Buttimer as what is made now.

To answer your question, i was .

I thought this wazzock had retired. Seems he's back to his old tricks, he has only refereed three games this season and has already clocked up 12 yellow cards and sent off 4 players. I pity anyone who has to sit through the Buttimer Show this season.

He's reffing in Limerick too and up to the same antics.

Seeing The Leps name there brought a tear to my eye.

The original TOWK.

United Park will see the return of a Drogheda United hero this evening as Anthony Buttimer takes charge of their home game against Limerick.

The return of "Anto" could not come at a better time as Drogheda seek to arrest their slide towards the relegation zone.

The same Drogheda hero who sent off 2 Drogs when they played Rovers in the league cup recently?

This guy is not biased he is just grossly incompetent

I wonder how long before the FAI are sufficiently brave/foolish {delete as appropriate} to put him in charge of a Dundalk fixture. He would be guaranteed a hot reception
