I thought at the time that it was not a red card offense (at worst a yellow card). I think that ref Winter initially took out yellow, but ref and linesman were clearly influenced by model pro Killian Brennan's reaction
That's the job. Only a month away. BRING IT ON !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Quote:

Doesn't make a difference if he made contact with the ball first, going in with your studs showing like that is a red card offence.Quote:

brilliant goal from Sean Kelly.
Hahahaha. Let's all laugh at Jeff Kenna.
Exactly. It has no relevance to this challenge.Quote:

And Con Murphy is a nice bloke, but his anti-Bohs agenda at this stage is reaching comic proportions. Good to see the panel talk some sense for once, not unconnected to a certain Maltese assignment.

Both of Keegans two footed challenges in Dalymount and the one the following week in the Bradywell were worse "tackles" and, while I agree that they have no relevance to Dalys, highlight the glaring inconsistencies.
Bohemians were the better team last Friday - I look forward to the cup match in the hope that the referee and assistants do not want to be the star billing again.
Just stop.
This cliché really písses me off. So your saying that because Dundalk had a man sent off, the other 10 players just decided to stop trying because the contest was obviously over?Quote:

Apologies for p1ssing you off. You really don't know what I mean????Quote:

anyone else hear Pat Morley saying something like Cork players are in danger of losing their lives:eek:
Yeah. That was class.Quote:

Well there's nothing hard to take about this one so there's no need to bring up past decisions.Quote:

And like De Town I hate this bull**** line about killing the game as a contest. Are you saying that red card offences should not be awarded as such because it allegedly spoils the game? Get real.
So what that ye were playing Bohs? That should have no difference when the ref is coming to making decisions. You can hardly expect the ref to think to himself "ah here, sure Bohs are by far the better team here, sure I can't go and ruin the game by sending a Dundalk player off".Quote:

It seems unlikely that you could both be Sean Connor.Quote:

Harpal Singh V Bohs- i think a tackle from behind on gypo Brennan, got the ball but he fell over like a sack of spuds. I dont see the harm in that
Michael Daly V Bohs- I think it was a harsh sending off but two footed
Declan O'Brien V Galway- double booking for alleged time wasting. I think
Whilst I thought we had overall turned a corner in regards to our club discipline I hope the Daly Sending off is just a once off. Michael is a decent lad and in the moment just went for the ball. Brennan reaction was one of a cheat and i have never seen anyone like him in the loi.
Overall though in the league the red card count must be phenominal because not a week goes by where there is no sendings off. I think the refs are scared by not implementing common sense. Refs are far too card happy with dishing out yellows where there is no need for them and then in cases when a yellow should be given the ref has now no alternative but to give a red and ruin the game. Red Cards should only be issued as a last resort and not willy nilly as the loi refs do.
Clue is in the title - "Tackle from behind". And you dont see the harm in that? Love it.
Surely Dave Barry has to blame the owners of the clubs for the mess they're all in and not the players. Of course they're going to take whatever they're being offered. The only way to get them to stop taking in high wages is for people to stop offering it to them. I wonder if RTE turned around to Dave and asked him to work on MNS for free would be still do it?
No I don't see the harm in Killian Brennan being tackled from behind. :DQuote:

Anyway, home now so first time I have seen MNS in ages. Have to say I found it all a bit boring. Was a bit peed off no one mentioned the Newcastle bid in the piece about Cork, the connection is an obvious one, but then those two Cork lads (morley and barry) are not much good. Where is Damo?
