The FAI lifted Twiggs ban on the run in to the league for inciting a crowd. Now a player can miss a Cup Final, probably the biggest game of the season at the new Aviva and possibly the biggest game of a lads carrer all because of a some yellow cards through the course of a season. There is no justice. Two seasons in a row we will have to play without our captain in a final cause of this, it ridicuolus.
Also some fans (not sunshiners I might add) saying that if this is the FAI b*ll***t thats going on this year again that their not going to bother going to the final.
Probably a knee jerk reaction but its hard to take.
then they're the worst fans ever.Quote:

As I said knee jerk and likely all talk. The rules are there obviously but it happened last year and as far as I remember they agreed it was injust. But nothing was done about it in the mean time.Quote:

In fairness its probably on topic. Ryan is up for POTY so a good performance in the Aviva might have swang it his way. Unless the award is handed out prior to the cup final, not sure about that.Quote:

Cashcera has not done any matches in the premier division, all his matches have been in the first division. He is being looked at as a future premier referee.
The PFAI awards night is down for November 6th (only know as that was the original night of the Pats POTY do and we had to move)Quote:

also feel that cascara has been the best ref in the first division by a country mile.
Alan Byrne for me has been the best player ive seen anywhere all season.

The best player in the league got POTY. He's been an absolute pleasure to watch this year.
