Tonights Echo 17/05/08

**rambler14** · 17/05/2008, 6:05 PM

Did any of ye read tonights echo and the report on the match?

If what Hendo said is true, then his reaction after the match is totally justified as the refereeing in this country is gone to the dogs as Paul Tuite and Declan Hanney proved last week by receiving 5 game bans.
How can John Meade deserve to be sent off for a tackle on the half way line by the dugouts????

I'll be honest, I havn't been happy with what Hendo's said in his after match interviews this season because basicallly he's said the same thing every game. But this week he's finally come out and been totally honest!

MNS should tell a lot on Monday.

Harsh comments by Hendo, over the top reaction maybe but it had to be done as the referee's have been fooking us all year.
Worth the potential 3 game ban in my opinion!

**ramsfan** · 17/05/2008, 6:17 PM

i agree totally but fai will just see him as an easy fine and they will continue to cover asses of poor refs, if they ban loi refs who have poor games then there will be none left

Was a sending off.

He was between half way line and the edge of the box when he cynically fouled Farren.

Lets wait and see for MNS.

Other derry fans have said it wasnt a red, whatever about the tackle supposedly and the player himself has said he handballed the ball ever before john meade was near him, i reckon the one camera prob wont be able to show if the rams players were in line or if he was the last man.

You and thischarmingman are the only people who have said it's a red!

**Candystripe** · 19/05/2008, 5:32 PM

I had a good view and thought it was a red but I'm biased.

As for your goal which was disallowed........should have been given. It was never off-side.

See I'm not that biased.

**rambler14** · 19/05/2008, 7:54 PM

Tom Connolly obviously doesn't like John Kearney, thats 2 of his goals he's disallowed this year!

As for the Derry goal. It was another goal Ramblers conceded from a John Meade throw. Thats about 3 or 4 goals we've conceded because John thinks he can throw the ball a mile when the truth is he can just about throw it 10 yards. Every game he tries one of his long throws and loses the ball.

fookin hell r14, change the record lad, form what i seen now ill have to watch it again later. but cummins had the ball tried to pass it back it hit the ref and according to mns 17 seconds of derry possesion they scored, now explain to me how that goal was john meades fault we had the ball in midfield, wee lost it not through our own fault then they scored. Explain how you can fault john meade there??

I never said it was his fault!!!!
All I said was that we conceded from one of his throw in's...........again! You shouldn't concede once from an attacking throw in never mind 3 or 4!
The goal can be anyone of 5 players fault including John. Fact of the matter is, it was just crap defending.

What, by saying::

you ARE saying the goal was conceded from another JOHN MEADE throw right, ive watched it over 5 times here:http://www.rte.ie/sport/soccer/mns/f...amblersav.html
and john meade throws the ball successfully to the forwards feet, a perfect throw, then ummins takes the ball under control and takes his touch, gets his body between the defender and the ball, so up to now everything is going perfect, were now into the third stage of this move, cummins passes the way he;s facing, k.coleman seemed to be his target, but the balls hits the ref( i dont think the ref could have gotten out of the way either, but was in a stupid position at the same time) and rebounds to a derry attacker, derry attack, and 17 seconds later goal. So do not say the goal was conceded from a john meade throw, because it wasnt, it was conceded from a unlucky break in play, and nobody gettin tight to the derry players in possesion. What did you want him to do, not try the long throw when it was the best option in front of him. And the only rams player to put a block/ tacke in, yes your buddy john meade, he skipped past poor old mucky, if mucky put the leg out it would have been a definite yellow and free kick at edge of box, obvioulsy iin hindsight we we'll take it now, but during the game we couldnt afford that so no real blame for mucky either. Seriously have to stop trying to single out players for goals, it unfiar especially when the case, in this intance is such a weak one.

No I didn't. Show me where I said "that goal was John Meades fault". All i'm saying is that when you have a throw you should at least create something from it, at the moment when Rams have a throw they lose posession!!

RIGHT THERE

**drinkfeckarse** · 20/05/2008, 10:10 AM

R14 I think it's fair to say that your post implied that you thought it was John Meade's fault. If you're saying you didn't mean it like that then we should just accept it and move on.

No point in yet another thread thread descending into tit-for-tat.

**outside in** · 20/05/2008, 10:25 AM

r14 go back and read ur posts....ur wrong this time kid

**rambler14** · 20/05/2008, 11:07 AM

I'm blamin the whole team for the goal not just John! It just so happened that it began with his throw and the fact that something like this has happened before is putting us further and further down the table.
