So I don't believe SBGWA is arguing in good faith. Notice they posted in the game week thread where this debate is irrelevant. It has nothing to do with this game week. They did the same thing with the future ticketing lawsuit last week. They are trolling to get a response and doing a fairly obvious job of it at that. Hence my response to them

Actually you are right I shouldn't have posted in this thread about it , is get ****ed off myself when threads go off on a tangent when I want to read about football. I've responded in the loi promotion thread.

On the football side of things that 6 to 1 win for Dundalk is a big boost to goal difference as well. Cobh somehow need to get to the last day of the season with the gap at a max of 3 for the game against dundalk but GD could play a part to. The playoffs are starting to look interesting with 3 of the probable candidates of cobh bray and Ucd looking good enough on current form to have a chance in a one off game against probably Galway.

I know First Division referees can be absolutely dreadful at times. Some of the ridiculous decisions gone against Kerry over the last few years are indefensible. Shots cleared off the line by defenders that Gaelic Football defenders would be proud of! Kerry have to keep their composure though. Annoyance at poor refereeing can't be boiling over headless indiscipline.
Poor discipline. Poor overall all round play. Kerry used to play a better brand of football. Been without their talisman striker for most of the season then as well though. One more win would mean a new points total record. It's a strange one. Hard to gauge if there actually is progress. The final league table tells the story.

4pts out of 6 in a week for Cork. An away draw against 2nd place in the league.

Is there still life there?

I'm not seeing it happening, those 4 points out of 6 have come against two teams in poor runs of form, Cork have more new injuries and they would be relying on Sligo hitting a drought of wins until the end of the season

As dreary a game at the Brandywell that you'll see, a game certainly lacking fireworks. Getting harder to watch football on that surface.

Interestingly both sligo and corks next two games are against bohs and Waterford, Cork will need to get another couple of points back there and maybe they can dream
