UCC 1-1 Rockmount

Evening all. Had a fine day out with UCC today, standing into their colours match in place of Corinthians who normally do it. Thoroughly enjoyable evening, match was a very good game played in excellent spirit on a wet and windy evening. UCC took the lead after about 15 mins, Mount should have been one up by then. The Champions had most of the pressure, but the College lads withstood it and got stronger as the game went on. Mount turned up the heat with 20 left when Willie Byrne smashed home a penalty after a blatent hand ball in the box. This goal maintained the unbeaten Rockmount run and in truth they didn't do enough to win it late on.

Good day was had by all.

Ah sure who cares, it's the same people reading both either way...

Intermediate cup for Mount this weekend, hopefully the weather will be kind and we can get a decent game played.

Their debut game under lights against Castleview last weekend was abandoned after 13 minutes of the 2nd half when ref Aidan O'Regan awarded the home team a penalty.
There were words spoken upon which he blew his whistle and abandoned the match.`
Theres a thread on the city forum about it

I heard about it Sun night from a Blarney player and thought it was the right decision by the ref. Hope the guy gets at least a year and Blarney get the 3 points. This is a thing that could occur again if not sorted asap.

Don't know, but if he was then he should be gone for good. Sounds mental and I'd not like to meet him after dark. Crikey.

super footballer a couple of years ago,maybe it was just one of those days,not standing up for the player but the standard of refereeing is pretty poor at the moment save maybe 3 or 4 but the league must take responsibility for that,look at j.lenihan my 8year old son could referee better than him he is a joke

i agree that the standard of referee is very poor in the msl, but the league won't/cant do anything about this because of a shortage of refs, like who in their right mind would be a ref, too many of them have ego's or get grief at home from the missus or something as the attitude they take towards players is apppaling, and what's the most annoying part is that no one can question them, not even the captain of the team, they just shout down to you so there not even accountable for their actions. referees are the only ones getting paid on a sunday morning so as semi professionals, they should be some way accountable. (this is only my opinion as i'm sick to death of poor referees ruining many a good game, as a spectator and as a player).

Well said, I agree totally. What happened against Blarney is totally unexcusable and the ref was right to call the game off. But I know this player and this is not his form to be honest. He is one of the best players in the MSL over the last 6/7 years and he has stuck with Castleview through tick and thin. Castleview are giulty of losing there discipline from time to time and they need to sort it out for once and for all, but I would not slate the player in particular and would put it down to a moment of madness.

Yes a suspension is required here but he should not be thrown out of the MSL.

superbly said yoda01,the league should take a look at the referees and their standard in general i mean as you said they are the ones being paid and just in case anyone thinks i'm referee bashing i'm not as i said earlier there are 3 or 4 very good refs around but the rest just add fuel to the fire by upseting players by treating them like schoolkids,i got more respect underage than i do now off refs and i'm well past the age where i want to be acting the hard man on a football pitch.

Blarney 0-1 Avondale Utd

Blarney very unlucky, had 2 good penalty shouts and O'Connell very shaky in goal for Dale.
