Ball definitely hit Danny Murphy's arm but the only question would be about intent, etc.. However, it was about two yards out and he was the last man (though I think the shot might have been going over).
Still don't think the Cork peno was the right decision. Webster put his hands on Silagalis but if anything Silagalis had a delayed, and theatrical, reaction in going down.
Also, cracking goal from Conor Powell for Bohs.
Cretaro always comes across really well in his interviews, he's almost too nice to be a footballer..
Ha if anyone want's some easy "Thanks", slag Shamrock Rovers and Sherdian will get back to ya!:DQuote:

I think it could be the lads inability to do pretty much anything right, including walking, although there was a hand on his back which could have been why it was given.Quote:

Agree with HolidaySong re Cretaro, seems a reallyt decent guy. Sligo should have got a third, cracking save by Barry Ryan - enjoyed him going apoplectic with Mark O'Toole after Sligo's second, surprised it didn't feature in Good Bad Ugly!!
It was harder to miss itQuote:

I said earlier, bringing intent into it, it shouldn't have been a red. However, it's still a handball two yards from goal and he's the last man. That is blocking a goalscoring chance so ref had a valid reason to send him off.
Not if it was unintentional. Intent is key in deciding if a handball is a foul or not. If there's no intent then the hand counts as just any other body part.Quote:

Come on now Frankie, if you were being honest you'd say there was no intent so you cant send the guy off.Quote:

Have to disagree.Quote:

Wasn't aware of this, anyone have a link to the exact rule?Quote:
