    Right! So if Dundalk had made the group stages they'd have been earning more as league champions than an Arsenal if they went out same stage with no wins. Dmn that referee and the Boyle penalty decision anyway!! But yeah that figures that the clubs with clout preserve their over inflated cut regardless of perfromance. But then they would be generating the majority of market interest I suppose. Whether it would be fairer to pay them a cut proportionate to specific club's marketability or whether this is sharing the wealth so to speak (excluding us minnows) would be interesting. If the revenue lost in Scotland with the lack of interest due to the loss of the Old Firm is a kind of example, thats what i am getting at - the rest of the SPL clubs would have earned on the back of market interest in just the matches between a couple of clubs.

    You wouldn't last long supporting UCD in the Premier Division.

    Fair enough. Set-piece defending was poor which led to the concession of sloppy goals early on in the first leg and it was an up-hill struggle from then on. Definitely could have managed a more respectable result with a more intelligent and tailored game-plan though. It was far too open.

    No. The prize money was based on the tv money contributed by each country. So English clubs were always gonna get more than Irish clubs.

    It's a foul throw simple as. Should be a yellow card too by right. LOI refs haven't a clue

    In a bit of a tight spot. A bit like being snookered.

    The Throw-in Law 15
    A throw-in is awarded to the opponents of the player who last touched the ball when the whole of the ball passes over the touchline, on the ground or in the air.A goal cannot be scored directly from a throw-in:• if the ball enters the opponents’ goal – a goal kick is awarded• if the ball enters the thrower’s goal – a corner kick is awarded 1. Procedure At the moment of delivering the ball, the thrower must:• face the field of play• have part of each foot on the touchline or on the ground outside the touch line• throw the ball with both hands from behind and over the head from the point where it left the field of play All opponents must stand at least 2 m (2 yds) from the point at which the throw-in is taken.The ball is in play when it enters the field of play. If the ball touches the ground before entering, the throw-in is retaken by the same team from the same position. If the throw-in is not taken correctly it is retaken by the opposing team.If a player, while correctly taking a throw-in, intentionally throws the ball at an opponent in order to play the ball again but neither in a careless nor a reckless manner nor using excessive force, the referee allows play to continue.The thrower must not touch the ball again until it has touched another player

    I may be missing something but I don't see how this shows it as being a foul throw? It only mentions throwing the ball at an opponent, not your own player.

    I assumed when watching it that the ref awarded a 'foul throw' because the player throwing it didn't throw it correctly ... in other words I didn't think it was anything to do with him throwing it off his own player he simply executed the throw badly

    Hm. Never heard the term before. Could they not have said "snookered"? Or used a normal term?

    Cheers anyway.

    On the foul throw argument, just throwing (boom boom!) this goal up here.

    I thought you were querying the 'conceding away goal.' Which of course is irrelevant as it finished 1-0.

    Huge week ahead for all 3 clubs, all obviously need to score away, but all in contention. 1 goal might do it for Dundalk, but I can't see Rosenborg not scoring, Cork need 2 to go through or 1-0 and AET and pens, while Rovers must score 2 and hope to keep a clean sheet. Not easy for any of the teams, Rovers definitely have the hardest task but you just never know, anything can happen.

    For Dundalk, the prize money is probably more important than the actual potential Celtic match as this will rise from current 570k or so to 1.2 M minimum. Just the 'small' matter of getting past Rosenborg first !
    #DundalkFC - First Irish club to win an away game in Europe (1963), first Irish club to win points in a group stage in Europe (2016).
