    City .v. Drogs latest

    Drogs are 1-0 up

    Myler scored the peno, it will be interesting to see how the lads react to actually going behind.
    Oh no not them again

    But ....

    But what actually happened !!
    The SFAI are the governing body for grassroots football in Ireland, not the FAI. Its success or the lack of is all down to them.

    Giving away 3 peno's in 2 league games is a bit shocking isnt it? Did they look like scoring from open play? Was there anything Hoggie could have done to avoid the peno?
    As I say, we're just young & a bit nieve.

    not really troy, they looked like your average div 1 side, long ball hoofing was the order of the day ..city defence and midfield had plenty of ball but not enough ideas to break drog down

    they had a half chance or 2 from knock downs from hoofs but that about it

    the peno shouldnt have been given.. as far as i could see..

    Drogs had one chance in the game when George was messing in the other half & lost the ball......they broke down the right & crossed for Myler who with only Devine to beat & no defender near him drove the ball at Devine from about 8 yards. If hoofin' the ball 60+ yards & hoping 'Big Jack' style for break then they had a good few other chances.

    Was far away from city goal but from what i saw Hoggie couldn't have done anything to stop Drogs players throw himself at the ground.

    The state of refereering in this league is the shocking thing here Troy. The second penalty against UCD was a disgrace, and it is impossible to see any justification for it. You cannot blame the City defence for the ineptitude of the pr*cks who are allowed to be in charge of games...

    Was thinking that too. It should be ironed out before it becomes a habit.

    But I think that there's a rule somewhere saying that you must have a ref on the pitch, so it looks like its going to have to stay

    Isn't there also a rule that says the ref must be impartial and implement the rules? Fat chance
