Common sense from refs is lacking at all levels of football. the ref in question here, is a league of ireland ref, which tells us a lot- still its tough job which few of us would doQuote:

Talking about the Tipp semi cup final, I am not making excuses for Saints or anything, I think Celtic wanted to win the game more than Saints. Hope they win out Tipp Cup Final. They are a good hard working outfit. I just want to make the point, talking about referees, game should have at least gone to extra time on Saturday night, because Saints equalised just at the end, 2.2 and Paddy Keane decided from where he was standing that a player was offside. We saw the goal, it was perfect, lines man (who was having a nightmare with decisions up to then), was gone back up the field for the re-start, so he didnt think it was off side, how in the name of god, Paddy decided the goal was offside, was beyond me and everyone else standing around. Good luck to Celtic in the final, I have to say, it was a good clean game, hard fought, it always is between Celtic and Saints, good to see another strong hold come out of Clonmel.Quote:

Very true, still it was good to see the Tipp Cup being played as hard fought as it was, it wasnt demeanoured in any way by either team, It is still silver ware at the end of the season.

To be honest I thought Celtic deserved the win on their second half performance and the effort they put in for the 90 minutes.
Of course, we would have been relieved if Celtic had a goal disallowed too, The linesman was calling Paddy to say the goal was not offside, but sure, Paddy being Paddy, decided it was and told everybody to get on with it. To be fair to Paddy on the other hand, he played nearly 8 minutes over time, which was enough time for Saints to equalise but sure that didnt happen!!!

ah no, nothing serious happened at all. Celtic made a few changes and there was a few minor injuries but may be Paddy thought Saints might equalise again after he incorrectly disallowed a goal!!! dont really know.
Oh ok ..................Jez 8 Mins is alot though...................Quote:

few points to note here.......
Clonmel Town are not in any sort of dissarray at the moment, the players who are the most import entity here are in great spirits and are looking forward to a MJC Final and an FAI Semi, anyone who thinks that because of yesterdays flat display against Peake Villa is anything to judge Town by is seriously talking through their behind. Lot of lads were minding themselves for the bigger times ahead, and could you blame them? You can bet your life in 2 weeks time when they face probably St Michaels in the FAI Semi that they will have all guns blazing with or without Aaron or Smurf, and i do expect both players to be playing for the record.
Also on the Muiris Walsh issue, i know what went on and ive stated it here on this forum, please drop it now cause its getting quite boring, for those of you who missed it, read back on previous posts, no one is irreplaceable and if he wishes to stand down thats his decision, he wont be chased to come back but im sure he would be welcome back to the club if he changes his mind
RANT OVER
Well done Villa. Great win. Congrats to all
delighted for peake great bunch of lads, definatly deserved are worthy champions .
well done villa.....fareplay
Yes it is getting boring. As I said I am sorry to see him go. However I think it is very bad form that he would go and potentially cause such disruption at this crucial and vital stage of the season. As you say the club won’t chase him and why should they. The club has done nothing wrong. He was only the PRO, a good one but it’s not that big a job. Yes he has been very good for the club but what he has done isn’t right. Maybe he wanted the club to run after him and stroke his ego, I don’t know.Why couldn't he have waited till the season ended.Quote:

If the Pike v Michaels saga is over Wed, will the semi final be played Sunday or would that be too soon. Also, isn’t there an outstanding FAI Senior Cup match to be played?
Yeh thats fixed for sunday coming and then the FAI is the following week, the munster junior final is fixed for the week after that
How will Moroney and Smurf be able to play. I thought they got 3 matches
