i thought he played against galway, the whole game alan.
Did anyone notice Danny MUrphy has not played from Shams since the opening day of the season.
If you cast yer minds back while with Cork he recieved a 7 game suspension after their second last game of the 2009 season against Dundalk.

He didnt play last game versus Galway and since then played agaisnt us and hasnt played since.
For Shams second game which was on the box the comented on Murphy being suspended.
So can anyone remember if his appeal agaisnt the 7 match suspension was turned over or could it be possible Shams slipped up and he played agsisnt us before they realised.
i thought he played against galway, the whole game alan.

It was reduced to 2 on an appeal where the footage proved the ref had lied.
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.
Was the ref sanctioned for lying?
Yes. This is a signature.
Is anybody going to answer our questions??? God dammit!?!?

Cork City 2-1 Dundalk
Friday, 30 October 2009 09:53
Cork City out-played Dundalk at Turner's Cross as they came from behind in a match they dominated to maintain their grip on third place in the League of Ireland table.
Three players were dismissed in the course of a lively contest with red cards being shown to Cork's Danny Murphy and to Paul McAreavey and Shaun Kelly of Dundalk.
Cork played some sparkling football on a pitch that was in surprisingly good condition despite the day-long downpour. One corner of the ground was almost water-logged but it was clear the ground staff had worked wonders to ensure the game took place.
Cork were obviously delighted with the decision to proceed with the fixture and they celebrated by producing one of their most enterprising performances. They controlled the game for the 90 minutes and now need one point more from their final fixture against Galway United to clinch third spot and a place in European competition next season.
The attendance was returned as 1,863 spectators and while the Cork fans amongst them must have enjoyed Cork's performance the big talking point of the first half was the row that broke out in added time after Billy Dennehy slid in to tackle Chris Turner. The Dundalk player took issue with Dennehy while the winger was still on the ground and a general melee broke out.
The referee Mr. Richie Winter showed Turner and Dennehy yellow cards and sent off Cork's Danny Murphy and Dundalk's Paul McAreavey. Clearly the referee took exception to whatever occurred in the general upheaval.
Kelly's goal after 18 minutes was beautifully taken. Dundalk's build-up on the left wing saw Ger Rowe flick the ball across the edge of the penalty area to where Kelly met it on the volley and his shot from 20 yards dipped over the head of Mark McNulty and into the net.
To suggest that this goal came against the run of play was an understatement. Dundalk, missing several of their regular first-choice players, were pushed deep into their own half of the pitch and their defence endured a torrid time.
Cork wasted a succession of scoring chances as their two strikers, Kuduzovic and O'Neill, thrived on a regular supply from a dominant midfield. Full-backs Neal Horgan and Danny Murphy pushing forward with enthusiasm to add to Dundalk's problems.
Dundalk goalkeeper Peter Cherrie could take much credit for Cork's inability to score in the opening half for he made several top-class saves. He was regularly tested by Davin O'Neill as the former Cobh Ramblers player worked well to get on the end of most of Cork's attacking moves.
O'Neill might well have had a hat-full of goals on another occasion for twice Cherrie advanced bravely to deflect his finishing shots away from goal and O'Neill was guilty of bad misses in the 36th minute when he turned a corner from Kuduzovic outside and again two minutes later when a cross from Cillian Lordan set him up.
Cork finally regained equality when Kevin Long capped a fine display with his first goal for Cork in the 52nd minute. Cork had numbers in the Dundalk box following a corner and when Dennehy's shot crashed off the upright, Kuduzovic crossed again for Long to power a header home.
Cork stepped up their game even further as they chased a winner and continued to create scoring chances. The pressure they maintained ensured that Dundalk's defence was constantly stretched and finally cracked again in the 67th minute.
Kuduzovic drove at the right side of the Dundalk defence and he was only stopped inside the penalty area when tripped by Shaun Kelly. Kuduzovic himself confidently converted the penalty.
Kelly had been booked in the opening half and was lucky not to attract a further censure when he conceded the penalty. But he erred again in the 69th minute when he tripped Dennehy and this time the referee showed him a second yellow card and the inevitable red followed as Dundalk were reduced to nine players.
Cork City: McNulty; Horgan, Long, Mulcahy, Murphy; Lordan, O'Halloran, O'Donnell, Dennehy; O'Neill (Cambridge 90), Kuduzovic.
Dundalk: Cherrie; Coburn, Heary, Burns, Michael McGowan; Kelly, Turner, McAreavey, Rowe; Mansaram, Williams (McGowan 74).
Referee: Richie Winter (Dublin)
Yeah Winter was the ref, not sure if he was sanctioned but I doubt it.
Afaik Danny served the ban earlier in the season, not sure who against.
