Agreed. It was the most spineless, lacking in balls and shameful piece of officiating that I've ever seen (bar O'Hanlon + Inchicore '99). Words can't even begin to describe how bad a decision it was.Quote:

Re Gunther's reaction: What do ye want him to do? Run on to the pitch? Snap the card from the ref's hand?
at a monaghan match a week or two ago monaghan didn't like a referees decision and they let him know all about it.Quote:
What can you do in a situation like that except think of how you can limit the damage?
the manager and asst manager were sent into the stand.
ccfc don't need that or the fines and suspensions to go along with it.
good man troy.
Come to think of it, the Examiner had a piece yesterday about a team in Madagascar that felt the Ref was $hite and scored 150 O.G.'s in protest.Quote:

Maybe we should have done that?:confused: :rolleyes: :o
and what if the league came down to goal difference?
answer me that troy mcclure!
:D
Like that would help. Wouldn't it get in the way of trivial matters like at least trying to catch Bohs. Gunther though should at least have tried to look annoyed by the decision.Quote:

I too gave the benefit of doubt to the 4th official but when say on Chorus yesterday was bewildered.
As i mentioned elsewhere was similar incident with Greg last night - Pats player on the ground picked ball up with legs & Greg tired to kick out of - Greg connected with defenders ass & IMO did not even deserve a yellow card.
Doesn't seem like much city can do but video evidence should ensure George does not get any increased ban. There may be some value in pursuing a bit as the fact george has a red card already might increase any other bans he'd get this season?
When referees start refereeing there won´t be a need to undermine themQuote:

It was not just the sending off (which was a total load of sh*t) but every borderline decision seemed to go against us. One particular time when I think Greg was absolutely halved ina tackle after he got the ball away and the stupid w**ker just waved play on. A dublin ref should not be allowed ref a game between a dublin team and another team they should only be allowed ref between 2 scum teams or 2 teams outside dublin, there are enough refs. The display friday (refs) was absolutely the worst performance from a referee I have ever seen and I include Inchacore99disaster case in that.
sorry but i´m just fed up of inept refereeing.
in all seriousness Eanna what do you suggest we do to improve the standard of refereeing in the eircom league????
:confused:
Glasses, and a monkey wrench to get what ever they have up their @sses out! :mad:
Oh ya, and a bit of cop on.
:o
Firstly: asses them properly- i.e. when referees like Hanlon and O´Neill have a stinker reffing a particular club, you keep them away from that club for at least a few games.Quote:

Secondly: end this dublin referee for a cork-dublin game joke.
Thirdly: tell linesmen to assist if they want to be called assistant referees.
Fourthly: there´s not much you can do to improve a bad ref. he´s bad full stop.
The minute George O'Callagahn got sent off by 4th official (corkman) i'm knew it would damage calls to stop dublin based referees reffing city v dublin teams at the cross.Quote:

The Cork refs (bar Alan Kelly) are fairly poor in terms of what I´ve seen. It´s nothing to do with any particular decisions, it´s just the profound, simple unfairness of it.Quote:

i stand to be corrected here, but i think he reffed a game in longford last season so badly that longford complained to the fai and guess what happened? he was back for the next match!Quote:

The week before the Cork v Bohs game he sent Eric Lavine off in a ridicolous decision against Shels. Read in the local Longford rag that they gave the adress of the referees acessor and encouraged people to write and complain about the poor performance from Han****.
Same kind of scenario as Hanlon and City after the game in inchicore- I think i´m right in saying he reffed a super-cup game between us and pats at the cross within a few months of that.Quote:

I was talking to a player about it before and he basically said that if you give out to the FAI, they won´t only ignore your complaint but they´ll do their damndest to throw it back in your face as well :rolleyes:
