    He was in court? Why was that?

    Is the article up anywhere?

    I'm guessing he was appealing to the court to force the FAI to use him.

    Mark McCadden's story in full....

    Referee Declan Hanney yesterday failed in a court bid to be put in charge of an FAI Cup match this weekend. He was handed a five match ban after making an error during the Cork City - Sligo Rovers match. Hanney failed to award Rovers a penalty during the match for a foul on Jamie McKenzie and showed the Bit O'Red ace a second yellow card for a 'dive'.

    The most stupid thing is,hanney gets a 5match ban for the bad decision but mckenzie was still suspended for the next game. A bit of consistency wouldn't go astray!

    Having had the pleasure of being a linesman to Hanney a couple of years back i can safely say he is the most egotistical arrogant man in refereeing that i ever met and an awful ref as well.

    Wish someone in the fai had the balls to get rid of him for good.

    Why no mention of our disallowed goal in the second half when Behan didn't go near the keeper? Yes, he was poor, but let's not make out that Sligo were shafted!

    from Saturday's Irish Times:

    Referee fails in legal battle

    A senior Eircom League of Ireland referee has failed to be reinstated prior to a mid- season break in fixtures that begins this weekend.

    Declan Hanney (44), Watson Park, Killiney, Co Dublin, was seeking an injunction in the Circuit Civil Court to force the Football Association of Ireland to allocate a game to him as referee.

    Mr Hanney was not selected to referee matches for the past four weeks after criticism of his handling of a game between Sligo Rovers and Cork City on May 9th.

    Refusing the application Judge Jacqueline Linnane took into account a judgment by Mr Justice Frank Clarke last year involving the FAI and non-interference in its internal operations.

    It's a toss-up between him and Hancock.

    Buttimer is probably the best referee in the league at the moment.
    At least he's consistent. The rest are woefully inconsistent.
