Shocking refereeing in the Cobh-Bray match. The goal that was ruled out was shocking. An awful decision. On the penalty I thought the ref was right 1st time around. Look at the defnders trailing leg, he left it hanging to stop the player. It was a peno IMO
To be honest i thought he checked him with the elbow, anyway the more i watch the more i think penalty.
Disagree on the penalty. The defender's leg was there as a result of his stance - he was trying to turn to his left to go after the ball, the Cobh player went to the defender's right and tripped over his leg.
No penalty, but a shocking mess all the same.
Was great to see Ryan Babel winning that penalty for Liverpool in the Champions League about 5 years when he was about 17.
Plus Alan Cawleys red card makes ya proud to be from Sligo:D
I'd be :o. What an awful attempt of a punch. He fell trying to deck him:DQuote:

Don't think it was a peno. Defender was looking at the ball and was busy turning when the Cobh player ran into him. The messing about afterwards was laughable, but only last year Bray had a penalty given and taken away against Cork so it's not unprecedented.
Imo, the Cobh whinging is pointless. Who knows what would've happened if they had the goal given? The game would've panned out differently and the whinging just make yez look immature.
Jeez another awful report from Gavin Jennings/Jenkins. Instead of telling us who was actually shooting, he decided to count the number of chances.
Didn't look a penalty to me. Also, why doesn't Henderson do the Cobh interviews anymore?
He's an absolute goon, isn't he?
Shouldn't have been a penalty but the point is that the assistant is supposed to alert the ref to things he hasn't/can't have seen. Why was Stokes giving a penalty if he wasn't 100% sure?
Had to laugh at Gartland's goal being unavailable due to "rights issues" (i.e., they wouldn't stump up the pittance they were quoted.)
I'm assuming he doesn't want any more touchline bans, which he would definitely have received if he had given an interview after that game. Yer man who does them in his place has the most dour Cork accent I've ever heard!Quote:

if any thing good is to come from saturdays match it should make sure that they are never left to officiate in the league again it was unbelievable to have so many bad decisions in one match and it may end up costing us come the end of the season. i will say that we should have game wrapped up long before these incidents happened but things like these change games and unfortunatly for rams it ended up being one of the most heartbreaking nights in colemans park we were the better team and when it is so tight this season with three going down i think we are entitled to rant a bit
Wouldn't it be great to see an Apres Match sending up MNS?
Tony McDonnell showed himself to be a "possibly so merchant" with his answer to the first question Con Murphy answered. :p
First of all, two buttons to the left of "m" there's something called a "full stop" that goes at the end of something called a "sentence". You've heard of them, perhaps?Quote:

That Gavin Jennings is shocking does anybody like his style of reporting, like something ou see in Fr TedQuote:

I do actually. Fair play to him for taking a different approach to it, not the usual list of cliches you hear from other reporters. I find him entertaining.Quote:
