    Question Referees & Ramblers

    It is interesting that a lot of opposing fans who visit the site label the Ramblers team as dirty or thugish team.

    I think all should look at the discipline records of the whole league and look at the FAI web page listing fines and outlining the offences.

    The facts say a lot.!

    I believe that the poor referring has a lot to do with the extremly long lists. The forth official or referee observer is not pointing out and issuing corrective action to over zealous referees. The game we pay to see is soccer and not how bad or well a referee played in the outcome of the game. which is unfortunately what is always focussed on whether we win or lose.


    One day the FAI will wake up Hopefully.

    All joking and jibing aside though surely Cobh have gotten more red cards than anybody else this season? And surely by definition the team with the most red cards is the dirtiest???

    The ball is round and has many surprises.

    I'm with you on that one SLK. I've only seen ramblers a few times this season but they looked very ill-discplined every time I've seen them since hilly took over. They nearly have more red cards than the rest of the league put together.

    The season before last Limerick won €1,500 for the best disciplinary record in the division. That wouldn't even pay Hill's fines.

    By definition it is the team with the most red cards for violent conduct, are the dirtiest team.
