I thought the first penalty was ball to hand. I watched the 3rd penalty a few times now and it is not clear if Joe got the ball first. Watch where the ball goes. Most likely was a penalty. That one was given by the linesman who was behind the Drogheda player although Kelly was closer and had a better angle. He wasn't giving it until Cahill put up his flag and did his dance around the corner flag.
Axel's red card was technically correct for his threatening manner but I suspect Cassidy "slipping on the mud" might have led the referee to believe there was contact. The Drogheda number 11 raised his hand to Craig in the same incident also a technically correct red card right in front of Kelly.
No appeal possible except in cases of mistaken identity.Quote:

Browns red card was for a last man tackle not dissent, the striker was just getting a shot away in goal when fouled, it had to be a red.
I don't think many are really argueing that one. It's the axel one people are annoyed with.Quote:

Ya I think most agree with that also. Still disgraceful carry on out of Casso and if you have video evidence you should be allowed appeal.Quote:
