Its old news at this stage. McCafferty went for the ball, caught O'Flynns left ankle and O'Flynn twisted his right ankle on the pitch resulting in a break. Feel sorry for him but thats football. Build a big bridge and get over it.

He did yous a favour anyway. Big fat Beehan can score at least![]()
The tackle itself was a disgrace, he jumped in far too high and it was a synical challenge because O'Flynn was gone by him. The damage was clearly done though after the tackle had been made, his leg twisted as he tried to jump away from the challenge and it badly twisted, terrible challenge but he the player couldn't be blamed for the damage done after.

Disgraceful tackle, he knew what he was at, just watch the way he walked on as if he did nothing, a sure sign of guilt, he can be a dirty wee pup when he wants too, last year he got sent off for Derry and he was only on the field.
Harps fans need to give this one up if want to retain any credibility.
There is no chance the player was going for the ball as it was on the far side of O'Flynn. The argument that the pitch & not the tackle broke his leg is one of the more ludicrous I have heard here. If the defender had not hacked at O'Flynn he would not have caught his foot.

"No your honour, its wasn't the 48 stories that he fell when i pushed him off the building, it was the man hole cover on the ground that killed him. Its the city councils fault surely isn't it?"
It is one of the better ones alright though isn't

The SFAI are the governing body for grassroots football in Ireland, not the FAI. Its success or the lack of is all down to them.
tbh - both Assistants on that game are fairly green around the gills when it comes to the International stage - Wiken only got on the list this year and Stormoen isn't even on the FIFA Panel
And Sandmoen (the ref) - is the fifth least experienced Norwegian Referee on the FIFA list (behind Hauge, Ovrebo, Skjerven and Berntsen)- this is seen as a decent standard game for him - he rarely gets the big games domestically in the Tippeligaen due to being so far down the pecking order
Interesting appointment - sadly one which kinda backfired spectacularly - would have preferred to have seen Edvartsen or even Berntsen given the game instead
Some Finn Harps fans must have watched the "Flanders Pigeon Murderer" episode of Blackadder Goes Forth and believed that the guy in the quote below - Bob Massingbird - actually existed...
(at the cell)
Perkins (Edmund's guard): Settled in and happy are we then, sir? Said all our last goodbyes.
Blackadder: Oh, no need for that, Perkins. I've just dashed off a couple of notes, one asking for a sponge bag, and the other sending for my lawyer.
Perkins: Oh, your lawyer now, yes sir. Don't you think that might be a bit of a waste of money, sir?
Blackadder: Not when he's the finest mind in English legal history. Ever heard of Bob Massingbird?
Perkins: Oh, yes indeed, sir! A most gifted gentleman!
Blackadder: I remember Massingbird's most famous case, the Case of the Bloody Knife. A man was found next to a murdered body: he had the knife in his hand, thirteen witnesses that seen him stab the victim, and when the police arrived he said, "I'm glad I killed the *******." Massingbird not only got him off, but he got him knighted in the New Year's Honours list, and the relatives of the victim had to pay to have the blood washed out of his jacket.
Perkins: And he's a dab hand at the prosecution, sir.
Blackadder: Yes, well, look at Oscar Wilde.
Perkins: Oh, butch Oscar.
Blackadder: Big, bearded, bonking, butch Oscar - the terror of the ladies. 114 illegitimate children, world heavyweight boxing champion, and author of the best-selling pamphlet, "Why I Like To Do It With Girls". And Massingbird had him sent down for being a woopsie.
Kom Igen, FCK...
Confirmed today that O'Flynn has not broken his ankle and only has ligament and tissue damage and as a result will only be out for 6 to 8 weeks!
The first x-ray showed an old break and a 2nd x-ray has shown no fresh break..........feckin health system again they can't even tell when an ankle is broken!..............Are you watching Mary Harney?
