First one, he was pulling Farren by the armpit hair. I was right beside it and he was caught by the referee who believe it or not was even closer. Add that to the fact that it wasn't his first foul on Farren . McGuiness is the dirtiest, slyest and nastiest defender in the league. He has probably been sent off about 3 or more times to date at the Brandywell. The second was a clear booking, he could have no complaints, Farren was too quick for him.Originally Posted by deecay

Worse than Gartland??

Bullshít, neither were bookings as is clear from the footage, Winters got them both wrong, pandering to the Derry theatrics, yet Anto Murphy was hacked down multiple times yet the Derry player gets away with it. Winters is the most incompetent referee in this league, he makes mistakes in every single game, as is evident by this incident as well as the mutliple other occasions highlighted on MNS (see our peno away to UCD for another great performance by him).
BTW, the first "booking" was for McGuinness' very first challenge (I'm not even sure if you could call it that because that would imply that Farren was also challenging for the ball, but in fact he was just diving to the ground looking for more soft frees - which Derry were getting all night.)
He tried a few times, wasn't too successful though
Think its about time Derry got a few decisions, we must be the only team in the league this year who havent had a penalty. On the other hand other teams like Cork getting them every second week

Theatrics and Anto Murphy in the one sentence. Very apt.

I'll stand by what I said of both incidents vehemently.
McGuiness was pulling Farren before the ball was headed towards them, you wouldn't have seen that in the footage or you wouldn't have seen Farren dive to the ground either, because he stayed on his feet. The ref saw it, I saw it and everybody around me saw it.
The second was a clear clatter into Farren, your manager closer to me to the incident had no problem with that yellow.
At half time I didn't see Fenlon get irate with the officials, which he is prone to do, but I did see Alan Reynolds approach the ref. He certainly wasn't a homer,we wondered if he had travelled on the bus with Bohs to the game he was that anti Derry.
Bohs had numerous free kicks awarded to them for nothing incidents, stuff that wouldn't be deemed fouls in basketball, they were that soft. It was your only source of possession and access to gain territory in the entire match.

Its clear from the footage that neither bookings were even fouls,football is turning into a non-contact sport
RIP JOHNNY
Thanks, I do try.Theatrics and Anto Murphy in the one sentence. Very apt.
If they were bookings then every centre-half in this league would be getting sent off each and every week, as they all do it.
worse than Murray, McGuire?Worse than Gartland??
best part of show was roddy the prat tryin to be the man talkin about moonsie and quigsie, what a knob
We control by attitudes positive mental attitudes not by rules.
He was still better than any LOI ref

Never seen a senior level football ref that fat. Surely he could not minimum pass fitness standard? Seen a few GAA refs close to that size before.
I could not see how MNS panelists could judge if first McGuinness foul was a card or not. It is possible he got it for persistent fouling? Mackey calling for leniency of yellow cards will be followed next week by calls to protect players.
Is anyone else having a problem with opening Conor O' Gradys "sixty" interview ?
Coleman for Ireland
Made a good analysis I thought.
Yeah man, they call gambling a disease, but it's the only disease where you can win a bunch of money.
Agreed.Thought it was a good little feature.
The MNS website is quite fickle for playing videos. I couldn't get Cretaro's extended interview to play for more than 20 seconds yesterday before it crashed internet explorer, but it works fine now. :/Is anyone else having a problem with opening Conor O' Gradys "sixty" interview ?
