The ball never touched anyone it cleared mokendi

which is some feat and goughy hardly saw it as it bounced between his legs not over him as some reports had it.I was right in line with it as we had just started to go to our fulltime positions.The ref bottled it but the linesman should have been consulted as he had exactly the same view as I had all in all it ranks up there with the worst decisions I have ever seen.It was a local caneraman that was at the game and the tape is heading to TV3 hopefully it capyures the ball going between goughies legs as it will prove what everyone bar the officials saw as a partisan decision.

The officials didnt leave the ground until everyone was gone which surely proves a point and the referees inspector was just out before them.

We did play too deep in the second half and have to go for it against teams and not sit back .Dundalk on thursday wont be easy,

Musta been a deft touch! :ball:

The RTE website credits Minnock with the goal...

TV3 televised it so let's watch that.

Won't make a bit of difference even is frame-by-frame slow motion shows that the original Pa Dunne made a split second appearance to score an OG

When did the FAI start an officials exchange program with the USL? :D That call is as bad as some that I saw at Seattle Sounders matches last year, like the deliberate handball of a Sounders header on the goal line by a Puerto Rico defender, the (female) ref looking right at it from about 15 yards away, and NO CALL!!!

watched tv3 last night - gough was asleep long throw bounces after defender misses the header - he could have caught it kicked it etc.

even if he expected the pair in front of him to get it first - he had plenty of time to react

from what i saw i can easily see why the ref assumed it hit off him - and contrary to what was mentioned above - most the harps players celebrated it straight away - for the gift it was

come on utd. - want to beat your record 9 draws in a row of a season or two ago

mid table mediocraty beckons otherwise :o

I was right

behind it the ball beat a 6' 5" c.b. and goughy had no chance to react as the ball landed and bounced between his legs as his view was totally obscured. On another point I doubt if you will see that ref for a month or so I wonder why?

.......I was right in line with it as we had just started to go to our fulltime positions.The ref bottled it but the linesman should have been consulted as he had exactly the same view...

What was the lino doing behind the goals.... should he not have been on the sideline or was he heading for an early cuppa!!

The goal maybe shouldn't have stood, but really the keeper should be shot for letting it in. If he had've delt with it proberly, you's would have gotten the 3 points and we wouldn't be having this discussion. It looked like a hard decision for the ref to make (not condoning it or making excuses) but their have been far worse decisions made.
