sorry to hear that old keeper - I hope those fighting for change and transparency in the ldmc win out in the end.
I would not be paying too much attention to our new friend "starbar"Quote:

Played in Bateman last Sunday and have to say it was in the best nick I've ever seen it in, as long as the rain stays way then it should be good this weekend as well.Quote:

I second that
i expect if 'the ref' was part of the ldmc they would probably try and stop him informaing people of the rules of the game via the web also !Quote:

i think old keepers comments have been fair and honest at all times and thats all we ask regarding the ldmc.personally i cant see the problem that is arising here
balla 1 carew 1
pike 1 regional 1
regional scored in the 90th min pike owned all the game regional scored with here only shot conway got sent off for throwing a punch hope he gets the same punishment as r.earls its only fair
well if he got sent off for punching he should get a few mths as well he wont as he does not play with balla or carewQuote:

On a seperate note great to see frankie scoring against his old club and a comedy celebration to boot!Quote:

weather he deserves it or not the LDMC have set a precedent a punch is 12 months ........but we'll see !!!!!
thats b0ll0x leather .. you weren't there so have no idea of the incident, it was keith harnett who fouled him and anyone who has seen him play will know hes not that type of player. they got tangled up as they were chasing the ball and out of frustration he turned around and thumped him. Actually it was more of a slap that anything else but he had to go. Staight red and they only bad incident in a very clean game .... and as for that comment about pike intimidating or provoking opposition players, thats hilarious considering the two angels ye have players up front for ye.Quote:

Conway swung out from bring pulled back not even sure that he ment to hit Hartnett just push him away.
Pike should have been 3-0 up by half time. I think that when Conway was sent off that Regional came into the game(maybe he did them a favour by being sent off).
MS5:
I didn't say that hartnett was responsible for what happened and yes there are no team with 11 angels. i was just giving my view that Conways action were totally out of character, what was he frustrated about?.i was shocked to hear that ye conceeded from 1-0 up not your form at all.
he was frustrated because up until that point regional were getting the complete run around and chasing shadows, as often happens his sending off pulled them together and they took over from there, you couldnt have any arguments with their equaliser
Thought Regional deserved a point, especially playing without Danny Galvin, Mike Behan and Mark Sheahan for the game, Pike totally dominated the first half possession wise but throughout the whole game there wasn't any clear cut chances for either team, the sending off was deserved but i don' think it was a punch, Barry just swung his arm back as he was being pulled back by Hartnett, the ref did give a free out to Regional, nothing like the Earls incident that's for sure, Regional played the better football in second half without creating much until Frankie finished very well at the end.
All in all a good game to watch and a fair result.
Thats true. They set the precedent that if you punch a player you get 12 months. And rightly so.Quote:

It Not as if he put him in the hospital looking fwd to a huge dental bill...
as conway was dancing through a few tackles , hartnett stuck with him and was dragging out of him (as goes on in the game) , as they tangled conway swung out with one arm and he was turning and swung a punch as hartnett was falling (still remember both players were running). There was intent to strike a player but not in the form of mr Earls (1 year) or Mr bennis (3 months) this year.
The ldmc have to wage where it meets on their scale of discipline and for me about a month should be givin for striking another player. By doing this the ldmc will clean up the game whihc has been lacking in recent years.
Now back to the real stuff, the game was a good keenly contested. pike should have been 3 up at half time. In the second half when conway was sent off, pike stopped working (maybe they thought the 3 points were in the bag) and regional controlled the ball. No real clear cut chances and from a set piece Frankie got a great strike from the resulting cross to level the game.
What hasn't been mentioned yet was pa mitchell's retaliation to the incident..it seemed as if he struck out at Conway when the melee insued and was very lucky to get only a yellow..Also Conway was leaving the field without complaint and was antagonised and abused by Droog.. The ref also saw this through the crowd of players but only gave him a warning.
get your facts right.Quote:

Droog did not abuse the player and actually said nothing. he was wrongly identified. One of the other pike players said something like 'it can only be a yellow' when the ref was getting the book out to deal with mitchel (probably in hope to pursuade the ref). the ref looked through the crowd of players and called Droog over. End of story.
It is amazing what some people hear and see at football matches (or make up)
a punch was thrown which is the exact same as the "earls incident" so he has to get the same ban!Quote:

If another player throws a punch but he doesnt do as much damage as what Earls done does that mean he should get a lesser sentence. I dont think it should.
A punch is a punch.
BTW I didnt see the Conway incident so I cant say anything about it. But my opinion is that if a punch is thrown no matter how hard the person deserves 12months.
yes a punch was thrown ! I can asure you of that !Quote:

Would be interesting if the lDMC has a matrix of some sort,
2 yellows (off) = 1 match
1 red= 3 matches (depending on action)
spitting = 5 matches
punching = 3/6 months
head butting = 3/6 months
etc. at least everybody would know where they stand but at the moment you never know what you are going to get ? You can be lucky or not. Surely it should be more transparent!
Conway was trying to hold off Hartnett he raised his arm and caught him in the face happens every match, the lad went over to hartnett after his red card to apologise...The Earls incident was a cowardly punch..this was not.Quote:
