Moyross B were kicked out of their league for a similar incident so if the LDMC are consistent they will demote Croom. Disgraceful in a semi-final of a major competition to attack a referee for doing his job

Moyross where kicked out but not demoted. If the LDMC are to be consistant they will not let Croom play anymore games this season and give the player(s) involved bans for the next few years.

They could also have Croom on some kind of probation that if any further incidents occur next season there will be automatic points deduction. This way it insures Croom keep their players in check or keep check on who they actually sign or face the consequences. This way its the clubs own fault if they get further sanctions and no one elses.

That was there last game of season i think

That was there last game of season i think

Thats why I think a suspended points deduction for next season is the best way forward as well as player bans. Its very hard to enforce relegating a club for one players actions, especially when certain clubs might not get relegated because they have a B team or C team in the division below and can not be relegated. Hard to be consistant with the relegation punishment in my opinion.

[streaker]

I dont think the clubs should be held accountable for the players actions. These players can leave the club and sign with another and carry on leaving his former club in a mess. I think a heavy individual action would be more suitable. How mant times has something like this happened and nothing done about it. i disagree totally the clubs should be held accountable it,s up to the clubs to sign these players,and at the end of the day they sign these players to play football and try to win games , not to assult referees and get games abandoned if a club signs a player they should tell that player how to behave on the field and if he dose,nt then he should not play another game for that club again....

[skyguy19]

I agree, I think they should be demoted, I mean you cant have 1 rule for 1 team (moyross B) and then have a different rule for another team (Croom), think about it when Moyross are allowed back in and it will be next season then they will have to go back in the league below them so they will have been demoted, the LDMC have set a standard and they should stick to it, no player should be allowed to threaten a ref, they deserve to be protected and if a club does it once (which Croom have already) (this is not the first time they have hit a ref) then the club should be banned for a year and left back in next season and the player banned for life, if not by the ldmc, then by the club. by the way, it will be interesting to hear from the Refs committee on this, they wont let that lye without some input and discipline

[lankyboy26]

Spot on skyguy. Well said

I dont think the ref was actually hit........it was more of a threat, but either way, something has to be done, because they seem to be getting away with similar incidents EVERY season for the last 3 or 4 years.

Longer than 3 or 4 years. Ban them. No problems when winning but when losing they are a disgrace.

Moyross will be back in the same division next season because they have a C team in the division below and two teams from the same club can't be in the same division anymore. Thats why I think it is a very hard rule to enforce, it would be inconsistant to demote Croom and let Moyross stay in 3B just because Moyross have a C team in the division below and Croom don't have one in 1B.

A club can sign a player, not have any problem with him all season and if he has one moment of madness all the other players and the club face sanctions. I still think clubs should be given a warning e.g. if there are any reports for the rest of the season and the following season of misconduct from any players at the club then the club face an automatic lets say 6 point deduction. That means it gives the clubs a chance to get rid of the players that caused the problem previously and gives them no excuses if it happens again. If teams step out of line then again after the deduction it should mean relegation from the division or hit them where it hurts, in the pocket. If this isn't the first time Croom have been warned then they should start next season with some kind of points deduction.

Players that threaten a ref physically or threaten him verbally should be given a straight 2 to 3 year ban so as to be known there is zero tolerance for it.

[passandmove]

What happened the other night was very dissapointing,croom where excellent for the 1st hour of the game but when our lads went in front they just lost the plot.It wasnt just the two players who got sent off,5 or 6 more of them where a disgrace with their carry on,fair play to our lads for keeping the head otherwise it could have got very ugly indeed.On the game itself our lads where hopeless,worst performance of the season by far,we where blessed to be 2up when the incident occured,that said you need a bit of luck to win trophies so hopefully the squad put in a huge effort for the last 2 games.

[rins]

Most if not all of the people on this site are members of clubs, instead of just coming on here complaining about the LDMCs discipline code why dont ye get yere secreatrys to put in a motion at the AGM. Im not giving out just a suggestion. :)

[theboywonder8]

I'm sure the ldmc saw exactly what happened so they shouldn't need other clubs intervening,they should do what is right for the game or other clubs will act exactly if they know they will get away with,they were elected by the clubs to run junior football,so they should the right thing and take appropriate action,I'm sure the referees will have their input into what is a very serious matter,if no action is taken then you'll have the probability of a refs strike and who would blame them,

[Fairkop]

exactly,if the ldmc dont deal with this incident in the proper way the referees will surely respond to it.

Granville 2-0 NewtownParkHibsofShannon(Or whatever they're called these days)

We ended the season on a positive note at home this morning with a comfortable 2-0 win. Our goals came from player/manager/coach/psychiatrist/sports science doctor Niall Walsh and on his last game Robbie Savage, sorry Jason Benn! The Gaffer's goal was a stunning 25 yard drive into the top corner with no deflections whatsoever ;) and Jason's was an opportunist Pipo Inzaghi type piece of centre forwards work, cooly slotting under the onrushing keeper.
Man of the match Steve 'Bruce Grobalaar' Benn.

And so to my end of season awards.
Player of the season: For me in my short time with the club it has to be the veteran Neil Mc Gourty. 42 and still class.
Goal of the season: The Gaffers wonder drive this morning.
Golden Boot: Myself!! 13 goals in 11 games not bad for an old fart!
Miss of the season: Omaru this morning!! Oh my..
Most yellow cards in history: Niall 'What you say'? Doran... :D

See ye all next season lads.

Zizou out.

[WizardOnTheWing]

Any outcome on the Wembley Croom game, did the LDMC meet yet to discuss it..

[booster 03]

wouldnt be too worried pal... If the ldmc follow precedent they'l be thrown out of the division, but then again...thats a big if!!

[leather]

[lfc at heart]

[theboywonder8]

Jaysus I wouldn't say 99% of clubs,a lot of clubs have their own gear nowadays,not em all I agree but certainly not what you're saying.

[WizardOnTheWing]

any news on the outcome of the Wembley v croom game, i heard it was been discussed last night by the LDMC

First lad from Croom who got sent off got a years ban, second lad who went for Ref got a 3 year ban..Croom Utd got a Fine and were warned that anymore carrying on like that and they will be thrown out of the League...But get this, the Person that Croom sent into the Hearing said that Wembley were at fault..WTF?

I presume Wembley had the game awarded to them and are now in the final?

[Second]

Classic mulla... Cheek of croom though to say that

[booster 03]

[theboywonder8]

George daffy got 12 months,bit strange really he should have got the same as the other guy,he made contact with the ref,don't think the other guy did,

[passandmove]

Just to confirm its wembley vs geraldines in the cup final,so for our lads its two games left with two trophies on the line,best of luck to all at the club over the next week.

[mulla]

wasnt too far wrong now was i... wembley won 8 nil and sville drew with balla 3all!!prospect are woeful and deserve to go down

are prospect gone booster or does it go to play off

[booster 03]

play off with balla im nearly sure

[lfc at heart]

wasnt too far wrong now was i... wembley won 8 nil and sville drew with balla 3all!!prospect are woeful and deserve to go down

actually the score was 5-0, you are coming across as been a very bitter person Rooster03, let me put this into perspective for you, there were 4 teams playing this morning, and 3 of them can hold their heads up high, Prospect never stopped playing football even when we were down 5-0, we heard that when summerville heard the score half their team gave up and their other players were shouting at them to try get them to put in the effort. shame on them for giving up ( thats something prospect, Balla and Wembley didnt do to day, give up) wembley were a class ahead and are deserved chamipons for 2 reasons, 1) they are the best team in Div 1A and 2) champions dont roll over,

just for the record, congrat to both Wembley and Summerville on their promotion to the premiership, they both deserve it as they are the best 2 teams in the Div 1a and 2 great clubs, weldone to all.

the playoff should be a good game, looking forward to it, weldone to Ball to-day on their draw, good comeback Lads

[blueboy2]

wasnt too far wrong now was i... wembley won 8 nil and sville drew with balla 3all!!prospect are woeful and deserve to go down
Was at the Prospect game and Wembley won 5 nil their by far the best football team in 1 A.
Summerville drew 3 all with Balla B they also drew 1 all at home to Prospect earlier in the season so their failure to beat the bottom clubs at home cost them dearly this season.:tongue:

[booster 03]

enjoy 1b blueboy!!

[blueboy2]

enjoy 1b blueboy!!
Ha Ha you are a bitter man and probabley one of those Summerville players who gave up this morning.
Im looking forward to your predictions for Summerville in the Premier league next season especially all those HIGH SCORING ones.
As for Prospect they looked like a 1 B team this morning so i wouldent be surprised if their relegated but remember its only sunday football not worth being bitter about.:mad:

[jman]

very bitter man prospect had no chance against a fine wembley side wit 5 subs on the line class above most teams even at 5 nil up they still battled hard to deny p/p a goal or 2 wit one off the line and a great save from morgan tipped onto the bar p/p had no 1 sub well done to wembley fully deserved

[streaker]

fully agree wembley are by far the best team in the league and they fully deserved to win it they also done very well in the munster junior cup only getting knocked out to a very good team on peno,s plus in the final of the div 1a cup and i think they will win that too,also i think they will do very well in the premier league next year with the team they have as for summerville their,s only one way for them next year and thats down because in my opnion they wont win any matches with the team they have just not good enough!!!!!!

[onetrickpony]

I haven't seen many 1a games this year but was at wembley game today was shocked of the gap in standard between both teams. Prospect did give it there all an never gave up but I can see them go down an if dont add to team will struggle next year.

[lfc at heart]

Prospect/Priory were just told that both Balla B and Prospect/Priory are been offerd the Boro Club as a nutural venue for the Play-off for this Thursday evening, that would be a great pitch to play the game on, hope both teams and the LDMC give it the ok,

[squirmy]

Think Balla will stay up. But it will be close, Could go to jackman park.

Balla will stay up. Think they will win 3-0.

[gaidin]

Setting Balla up for a fall there..Balla are not as good as they think and Prospect are not as bad as yesterdays result may show...Who won the league meetings between these two?

trust me we(balla) dont think we're good as you say some people think, we know we are in for a good battle on thursday against prospect as it always is so obviously best team on the night will be in 1A next season!
