The only reason Derry won the cup was because of the biased Dublin ref

In fairness, wws, the wind scored their 3rd and 4th goals for them. Not much the ref. could have done about the weather.

Are you telling me that Derry played Dublin twice and lost twice to them?

Your goal against us should have been ruled out for offside. The dogs on the street could see that!We played Dublin City twice and one once and lost once.

Having been directly across from the goal at the Brandywell he was well onside (confirmed by TV).

As for your comments re the Cup Final, we played better, we deserved to win. We won.

Now run along and take your frustrations out somewhere else.

Peader, Farrens goal against Cork was offside? !!!!!! Wise up. He was clearly onside - I was directly in line with it in the Glentoran stand that night. He caught your defenders for pace - end of story. You, I presume you were in block A and given the view from there I presume you are taking your opinion from Rico who was the only person apart from you to mention it.

I actually watched the Shels v Bohs match last night and the clip supplied by Rte of the goal shows Farren get onto the long pass without a hint of offside.

Are you honestly arguing that is nothing in the slightest amiss with a Dublin based ref officiating at a Cup Final with Derry as one of the teams?

:eek:

thats a turn up for the books

thats a turn up for the booksI still object to non-geographically neutral refs being appointed to any fixture as they are in any other decent League in the world. By the same token, appointing the cousin of one of the players as an assistant ref is possibly even more ridiculous.

I think Hancock is a clown in any case but he had a good game given the conditions. I certainly wasn't among those booing him at the end. No idea which linesman was on the East Stand side but he was brutal (would be ironic if that was Delaney's cousin Ciaran).

If we hadn't been raped over the Dublin City disgrace, we'd have been at least above Drogs and probably above Derry too so fair play doesn't come into this.

Maths ain't your strongest point is it Peadar? Had they been reinstated we'd still have finished 3 points ahead of ye. Yer right thought that ye'd have finished above Drogheda on goal difference. ;)

chillax man im only havin a laff.
the cribbin over "dublin refs" is patently ludicrous from fans of certain clubs
we've all got tales of being ridden rock solid by refs - ive no doubt they're all 100% above board its just in Ireland we have too many utterly crap ones
