Thought the challenge was a penalty myself, not sure about the handball.
Disappointing and heartening at the same time, that match. We matched Dundalk on the pitch, especially in the second half. Not a whole lot of chances created, so pretty gutting when the late, deflected goal went in.
In saying that, Byrne really should have made it 2-0 at the death. But if we can play like that against the better teams, we'll do alright.
On a side note, what was the craic with all the garda dogs outside the ground? Bit over the top, surely?

Never seen as many police before as I saw at limerick v Cork.
Do not know what they were expecting to happen.
I doubt they were there for the decent Derry folk who traveled to the game but after Dundalk's last game in the Brandywell they were likely there to ensure no retaliation from the not so decent type in Dundalk that would neither be in Oriel or the Brandywell but need little excuse for a bit of rock chucking at visiting Derry fans!
Lowering the volume wouldn't hurt either it could be heard in Greystones on Saturday it was that loud.
Penalty decision for Galway was a disgrace. Great tackle by Lopes.

Never mind referreeing. Buttimer should be banned from all grounds in the league
Jaysus, looked like a penalty for longford also.
Certainly looked like no contact. Shaw presumably kicked his own heel.
I thought the defender caused him to clip his own heel as he went to kick, but it wasn't that clear.
The slowed down replays of the same footage don't help much.

Just seen footage from soccer Republic and as suspected definite penalty. I thought so Friday night and even more so now. And considering the Rovers back room staff backed up those claims is even more disappointing. Outspoken, check out the footage on RTE player and I'm sure you will change your mind!
Somehow i don't think that will be happening...
