never mind the refs, the linesmen in this league are worse.
after a harps game one time i said to buttimer "hey ref" in a nice way, he turned around then i said in a disspointed father kind of way "your a ****ing disgrace" his wee face dropped and he walked on up the steps to the clubhouse.
After I said it i felt bad about it to be honest. But when you have to watch how bad the refereeing is it can bring out the worst in you.

It's just a job. Grass grows, birds fly, waves pound the sand. I beat people up.

Are you sure? I was down in Block A, but I'm 95% sure I saw a yellow card in the ref's hand.Originally Posted by BohsPartisan
I didn't see the initial challenge too clearly (I was watching the ball go out of play!), but it was very, very late. Probably deserving of the yellow
I think Murphy's red was a decision which could have gone either way. If Flood had gone past, he would have had an open goal, albeit from a very tight angle. It was right in front of me, and my initial reaction was that he was going to walk for it.
That said, I think your first penalty appeal when it was still 1-0 was quite strong, and I thought we might have been in trouble for a second.
We seem to win games with Buttimer...
Richie Winter and Ian Stokes are the 2 worst IMO. But in the LoI there is no such thing as a 'good referee'.
there all muck we should bring refs and linos in they will do a better job than the excuses we have for refs and linos at the moment.
Is it only now that you have noticed how bad he is?
Nothing focuses the mind like some iffy decisions against your own team!!!
I don't think there's been any game I've been to where the ref/linesmen haven't done something stupid.
Richie Winter & Neil Doyle are some of the worst.
Life without Rovers, it makes no sense...it's a heartache...nothing but a fools game. S.R.F.C.
And we won't see it get any better considering in a few years thes elads will be monitering future referee's performances. Why can't w ehave refs like the one we had against Vllaznia at home ? compare him and and LoI ref together and they are worlds apart in terms of quality and standard.
Coleman for Ireland
Best ref ive seen in this country is actually Croatian(open to correction) He used to be a ref in his own country but upon moving to Ireland and applying to ref here the powers that be wouldnt allow him.....he does do the odd friendly/ladies/local matches etc but he would seriously have put the cat among the pigeons
That piece of **** we had from Cork last night, without doubt the worst I've ever seen. Seven yellows, all to the one team, and a shocker of a peno decision. Even Keely was on the side saying it was a disgrace!!
hmmmm a first division ref from cork who gives dodgy penos?? without seeing any reports that sounds like Mr Kelly (Brother of Alan)
and the way they do it is mr kelly for travelling all that way to monaghan here, take the top of the table clash. we had a linesman in longford last time up who ran along the sideline kicking the ball and never put up his flag to say it was out of play. For travelling all that way from Kerry to play keep me ups, Stuart Templeman was given the game between Limerick and mervue last night. in the 84th min a clash of heads in the limerick box resulted in.....a penomuch to everyones surprise
No it was Callahen(Sp?) last night.
Connolly
Hancock
Buttimer doesn't register comparatively. that + he's on the take from Rovers obviously..
The Model Club
Tell all the Bohs you know
that we've gone and won two-in-a-row
and it's not gonna be three
and it's not gonna be four
it's more likely to be 5-1.
I have to be fair and say i believe that of the refs in the first division Callinan is the best of them.
Why are people who "need no introduction" always introduced?
I didnt see much of the game last night so I personally cant make a comment.
Buttimer. Worst of a bad lot.
Nope, he was atrocious last night.
The standards of Refs is so bad in the league i honestly believe it will or already has drove people away from supporting it, sometimes i think why do i bother coming to thses matches everyweek when these idiots are clearly ruining the game
Here on a technicality.
Somehow, the ref managed to show both cards.

What that looks like to me is actually a yellow post it note on the back of a red card

I think I've seen something like that before, it's like a wee notebook on the back of the card, for writing down names, as opposed to having a separate notebook. That could explain what I saw.What that looks like to me is actually a yellow post it note on the back of a red card
Although, the Times today said there was a yellow, then a red for dissent. They probably have access to a ref interview of some sort.
