1000% onside in fairness, I was more or less level with itQuote:

Agreed to an extentQuote:
The biggest difference between the two teams was experience.
Longfords goals were superbly taken
Even Jamie fcukin Duffys one ;)
Once :)Quote:
(As an aside, how many times have we played in white this season?)
I was pretty much in line with the first goal and thought Baker was offside when the ball was played through..
The 3rd goal scored by number 11 was clearly miles offside and a shocking decision.
The linesman looked way overweight and in each case was in a terrible position to judge. For the quarter final of the cup you'd expect proper officials.
I thought we played very well and were worth a draw
We'll have to agree to differ :)Quote:

As SLK pointed out to me at the time if it was down the other end and was given offside we would have been raving.
The flip side of all this of course is that our penalty was dubious to say the least :)
Yeah but ye should have had one in the first half too;)Quote:

The annoying thing was we had done the same to them only minutes before so maybe our guys should have been more alert to it.Quote:

Our penalty was very soft, but we should have blatantly had one earlier so I've no guilt about it.
Overall I was very pleased with the way we played, 4-5-1 was negative but appropriate and we were by no means pinned back in defence, I thought we looked comfortable for most of the match.
The final scoreline was disappointing, I thought 2-1 would have been fair and more palletable.
One worrying stat is that in the last five games now we've only scored from penalties. Why do we always have to walk it in ? - more shots please :ball:
anybody know who the subs were the other night?
Number 11 was offside when the ball was played over the top. The guy on the right wing was onside. When he crossed the ball number 11 was even still ahead of him and offside again but also would have become active from the first ball. Therefore he was offside on 2 counts.
Have to disagree on Baker's goal. He was offside when the ball was played IMO. Appreciate we have differen topinions but the linesman's poor position made the decision a lottery anyway,
Tierney for McCarthy and Kelliher for Moran.Quote:

The cross for the third goal was passed straight across our area. Doesn't a ball have to go forward for offside to be given?
I didn't think any of the goals were off to be honest. 3 great finishes. Longford were just that bit better than us, no disgrace in that, overall we played reasonably well (Wayne and Derek in particular). A lot of noise made, good to hear, all we need to do now is have a word with the children kicking seats after Longford goals and we'll be flying.

Everyone seems to have a differnet opinion on this one, depends what angle your looking at it from I suppose (must admit i'd make a terrible linesman).Quote:

fine be like that. Last time I look after ur sorry ass.
Watched EL weekly last night and replayed the tape a few times.
1) 1st goal was probably offside but not absolutely conclusive on camera. Baker is well offside as the ball is cleared. He is still coming back it would appear as the ball is kicked but not on camera. He is probably just onside when he receives the ball but most likely off when it was kicked. From my viewing at the game he was still offside when the ball was played.
2) 3rd goal was probably OK. Number 11 (Duffy ?) was not offside in the buildup but another player. On camera the cross looked flat instead of forward. From my angle at the game it looked clearly forward.
You'd be perfect for the league, please email referees@fai.ie for detailsQuote:
