G O'Cs sending off

OK, I've just seen the sending off incident on the Multi and TV3 and I'm f*cking livid. On another thread I gave the benefit of the doubt to the ref, but this is one of the worst I've ever seen.
An absolute f*cking disgraceful decision!
That b*stard Hawkins bullied the weasely f*cking 4th official into it and the cretin ref went along with it.
Even Damo on TV3 was p*ssed off by Hawkins's carry-on and could not see any reason for the red card.
City should fight this all the way and bring some sort of complaint against Hawkins.
I really hope the pr*ck breaks his leg soon, and this is a guy I used to think fairly highly of as a player. :mad:

Gotta agree with Oddboy here.

I don't think he should have been sent off. It looked kike George was doing nothing more than trying to get the ball out from between Hankins' legs.

In hindsight he should have taken one lash at it and burried it so far up his ar*e that Hawkins would have needed Neuro Surgery to get it back out.

Does he have some continental blood in him with all the finger wagging and pointing he went on with.

What a toe rag.

Having seen the eircom league programme on TV this morning, i have to admit i was wrong about Georgie's sending off. Hawkins was a disgrace.

Spot on. I couldn't really comment because I saw it from the St Annes end at the time but seeing it on TV last night proves without doubt that it was a disgraceful decision. Shame on Honker Hawkins. But would anything about that bitch surprise you?

No. He´s another whinging drama queen from the Trevor Molloy school of cheating, diving etc.
Anyone reckon city can/will appeal this?

Dunno what clubs can do in these situations. An appeal costs time and money and the ban has already been served.

On TV3 last night Rico was livid about Honker Hawkin's behaviour. Comments could be directed to sports@tv3.ie. Trevor is always looking for comments and I'm sure he'd entertain a bit of Hawkins bashing!

yeah thats the problem with this new rule that suspensions follow immediately. surely it should be the following week giving time for appeals etc.,

I guess City can appeal if the ref decides it needs further action but having seen the footage there's no way he could.
Hawkins has always been a sly player and now there is the prove to show it.

I personally loved Gunthers reaction. The foo, didnt even look in the direction of it, just stood there like the erect penis he is, while Patsy almost exploded.


Unreal decision. I have to agree there. GoC did exactly nothing wrong. In fact it was Hawkins who fouiled by trapping the ball beneath himself.

Yeah I know, the fool didnt seem in the slightest bit bothered that we just had a man wrongly sent off. Maybe he was glad because he thought that people would blame Georgie for us not winning instead of blaming him!
Gunther is an emotionless idiot who is going to fcuk up our club if he is left in charge.

On the sending off, it was an absolute joke. Both the ref and 4th official were standing very close and should have clearly seen Georgie going for the ball. They and Hawkins are a disgrace.

hey come on. he suffered a very serious injury for our club:rolleyes:

Oddboy said That b*stard Hawkins bullied the weasely f*cking 4th official into it and the cretin ref went along with it.

If you watch it again you'll see that the fourth official acted before Colin Hawkins reacted. He'd already gone over to inform the referee before Hawkins said/did anything.

Gwonawayyalagner REF!:D

Hawkins is a cheating ****. Himself and molloy are past-masters in cheating and conning refs from their pats days. This is one serious argument for video-evidence.

Said Eanna:

Eanna, the point of the automatic one match ban for a red card is because a lot of the appeals were overturning referees decisions even though the referee got it right but the leagues didn't agree. THis undermines referees and it had to stop.

The referee sent him off for violent conduct so unless the league feel the referee/fourth official made a mistake he'll more than likely serve a 3 match ban. A one match ban usually only results from a red for two yellows.

oh and GWA

i haven't heard that one before. :rolleyes: :D

Okay, Hawkins did act the maggot, but thats gamesmanship. If one of oursd did that to Jackdaw, or if Roy Keane (still hate him BTW) did it to an opponent, you all (apart from the anti keane people) would be saying that jackdaw deserved it for getting wound up etc.

Still a schnit decision though!

BTW, what did ye all think of the Rutherford penalty incident now ye've seen it on TV3/Chorus?

No way a red card, but like was said before, we wouldnt be complaining if one of ours did it, however Big Nose went way ott IMO.

As for the peno, well I wasnt there, but it looked like one from the tv, however the reaction of our players (maybe they were trying to get him sent off for diving?) and the lack of protest from the Bohs team in general seemed to sugest that Rutherfird went diwn a bit too easily.

Re Gunther's reaction: What do ye want him to do? Run on to the pitch? Snap the card from the ref's hand?
What can you do in a situation like that except think of how you can limit the damage?
