"People will be happy that Rovers won" - Fenlon
The world's against you, Pat. You might as well give up now. :rolleyes:
Drogheda's number 6 was lucky not to be sent off for pushing the ref after that Dundalk yellow card.
What's your problem? He's right. Most people were happy Rovers won. Makes for a more interesting title race if you're a neutral.Quote:

I just muted the Derry treble coverage and pretended it was this week's highlights.
Nothing. He's just always making snide comments like that in interviews.Quote:

Is it too much to expect the FAI to overturn Michael Daly's red card..?
I rarely watch MNSRFC these days. Did they show the bottle incident?Quote:

its a total joke how red cards cant be over turned in this league. last season down in cork jamie mckenzie was sent off for diving and replays clearly showed he was fouled. therefore portraying him as a cheat when he was not. red card stood though. it must be the only league that has no appeal procedure
True, thats the one thing that really pi$$es me off about Fenlon. In victory or defeat he has no class.Quote:

Just shake hands and leave it at that
The would take McKeon to own-up to making a mistake. The term "Hell will freeze over" comes to mind.Quote:

Well you need to appeal it first.;) Straight red for dangerous play can be appealed.Quote:

Burns should have gone anyway. No footage of mental Mickey practically carrying the ball out of the box, no comment of Mansaram winding the Drogs fans up again after his goal, no footage of the Dundalk muppet throwing the firework onto the pitch. No comment from Connor on Burn's alleged red card ........
See we can be whingey as well:D
Cracking atmosphere up there, no trouble, decent game, plenty of incidents - people will gladly pay for nights like that.
That was bad alright i'll admit. Its not some much the overturning of it but the learning from it. It would be good to know the the ref reviews his performance and acknowledge they get it wrong. Its never clear if this happens.Quote:

Daly claimed immediately after the match that he made no contact with Kenna. Footage was inconclusive, but highly suspect, that Kenna cheated.
Sean Connor did comment on Liam Burns yellow card when asked by LMFM. But whats your point - you would be most likely to dismiss his view anyway?Quote:

super drogs
My point is that MNS had Conor Kenna branded a cheat while Daly was soooo unluckly, Connor threw his tuppence worth on that red card but they never asked him about Liam Burns red card, even though Sadlier said it was a red, among the other things that Dundalk were bold about.Quote:

Pretty outragous statement to suggest that it is "highly suspect" that Conor Kenna is a cheat. Daly's foot caught his head, it obviously was not intentional. It was a free kick, maybe a yellow card, but not a red.Quote:

No they didn'tQuote:

It could be debated about foot high / head low, but this is not really the crucial issue. If the referee interpreted this incident to be a free against Daly, so be it. To give a yellow card against him would be harsh, to give a straight red card is outrageous.Quote:

So either Daly is a liar or Kenna is a cheat. I know who I believe, thanks.
Michael Daly got no red cards for telling lies.Quote:

Other then the fact that the referee made a howler, I think you have summed up correctly - either Daly is a liar or Kenna is a cheat
While you may not be outrightly branding Kenna a cheat, your choice of the words "highly suspect", is certainly suggestive that you are branding him as such. The TV evidence does not suggest no contact was made. It did not even show Kenna recieving treatment off the field, he certainly was not feigning injury.Quote:

Both players just went for the ball with no intent to catch each other, Kenna with his head, Daly went in with his foot. Daly's foot clipped Kenna's head. McKeown should have just booked Daly but instead he sent him off.
That's McKeown's fault, not Kenna's.
Maybe Daly does believe he didn't make contact, but when it comes to an accidental kick in the head, I'd tend to believe the guy who's head was involved rather than the word of the guy's who's foot was involved.

2. Don't know. I'm not the Drogs physio and I watched the game going on rather than make a diagnosis and offer advise to our physio. He did not come back onto the pitch with a bandage.
3. Don''t know. I don't work for RTE nor have I asked any of the photographers. MNS showed about 1 minute of a game that went on for about 98 minutes.
4. A lot of people saw it, a tiny percentage post on here, which is why we don't have hundreds or thousands of Drogs fans on here confirming it.
Now you answer a question - with such a big crowd in close confines to your thug who threw a lighted firework onto the pitch, why did nobody take action and point him out to the stewards or guards? Most of the other questions apply as well, RTE record it, photographers etc, etc
Ok you seem to be saying that you say blood on Kenna - if so, thats you and DUFC4Life making that assertion. With all due respect to you, I find it strange that none of the many supporters of both camps that I spoke to in person on the night (in the club bar and later in the Windmill pub) or since have mentioned this.Quote:

Irrespective of that, the decision by the referee was outrageous and plainly wrong. If common sense and justice does not prevail he could well end up with a ban of 4 matches arising from this travesty.
I have no idea what occured regarding Gardai or stewards, but throwing fireworks or any other object on the pitch is wrong and indefensible.Quote:

there afraid to admit when they get things wrong. its been said before but i think referee's need to be interviewd after a game, once they've seen a replay maybe and give their views on the game. would be alot more interesting than the managers giving out about them everytime.
i thought the old derry footage was class, easily know it was foyle tv/derry city and not rte with it. pity all clubs didnt have cameras back then, there would be some library now and we wouldnt need an "archive" section from 2001
