Carrick won 1-0 but i heard they had two of their best players sent off also. Depending on the the circumstances they may miss the next round.

To keep it simple, Woodview them selves told us if the referee did to them what he did to us, he would be bundled in to the boot of a car

Shocking display from him, however surprised woodview hadn't the savvy to take advantage of our 9 men for 45 minutes "same as kevins in the last round with the same referee" but you got your late late goal and all credit, it was expected once two were sent off.

We could have even nicked it and fairly sure 11 men would have anhilated woodview. if's, buts and maybe's.

Carrick v Portmarnock
Killester v Clonmel Town.

Two cracking ties, and two of the favourites guaranteed to go out. My �50 each way on Pike at 18/1 is looking better and better.

If a player is sent off he will miss next game in FAI.

These would be interesting

Clonmel V Killester
"i've tipped these earlier in the comp"

Pike V Portmarnock

!

I was fairly close on this one.....dr mad, give me a blue peter badge!

Sorry mate, but we have heard it all before. Dublin clubs whinging about country refs. Please accept defeat. If you are bet by a team from the third division of the Meath league you are not good enough.

Maybe maybe, but a 3rd division team "who boast three well know and excelletn footballers" couldn't break down 9 men for the entire second half, I think you might be getting a picture here.

ps: were not moaning at-all, simply stating a fact. its bonus football in the end, back to the league and bread and butter!

**dasher** · 22/01/2007, 10:04 AM

Us dubs have never said all country refs are like this so dont make out its bad sportsmanship
but i would be ashamed to win a game if they referee is blatantly robbing the opposition.
a few bad decisions will always happen in any game but the fact you lot come on here calling people sore losers when you know quite well the referee was cheating is pathetic.
you need to take a good look at yourselves

Who are the 3 well known footballers?
I don't understand what you are saying that they could not break down 9 man team. On one hand you are saying they are well known so they must be good but on the other you are saying they are no good. Please name the 3 and elaborate on your point.
PS how well known could 3 meath 3rd division players be.

**Dazza** · 22/01/2007, 10:09 AM

How do i know that the ref cheated. What i do know is that any time a Dublin team is bet we hear the exact same story.

Thats probably summing up my point. in the pub after the game "and thanks for the sambo's by the way", the players from woodview weren't hiding the fact that the fella was card happy and free kick happy at times for literally nothing. and why would they?

This happened to kevins in the last round, same ref, same opposition. two off.

We havent had one player sent off in the junior cup until yesterday. and we had some tough games, in particular the o'devaney game.

One thing to note though, for all this dublin or them way of thinking, a team would not get that treatment in dublin.

PS how well known could 3 meath 3rd division players be.

Ray McCann, an irish army international
Mickey O'Kane "dundalk fc 04-05" "we would certainly of known him"
Conor Murphy "well known in junior football, in dundalk particularly"
!

The point is simple, three good individual players, not bad on the ball but individuality is one thing, as a unit is another and with our 9 men, woodview actually didn't know what to do with the extra men, they had four on the back line and really if they didn't score in the last minute i think it would have puzzled them as to why they couldn't finish off the 9 men considering it was all of 45 mins.

I think that clarifys that point, what you reckon?

**Dazza** · 22/01/2007, 10:25 AM

Thanks for clearing that up. From what you say they will not go too much further

It wouldn't be nice to say they wont go any further, anything can happen and i dont know anything about wembley in Limerick.

Their not bad in fairness, but neither is any side in this round.

The only thing i can say is that they might get a sample of what ourselves and kevins got. the law of averages sais it will happen.

we had some supporters who in their time won the junior cup for cabra based teams a long time ago, they have seen allot and they were saddended to see blatent decisions that were off the wall. that referee didn't speak to one player and didn't use what all referees should use in common sense!
