So McEntee got two yellows and stayed on the pitch and Cross won the final.. but I suppose that was before Twitter

No its because Cross won comfortably, Crokes didn't and no one will ever know the outcome in that last period without that extra player they had, who was standing on the goal line.

So breaking the rules regardless of the score is ok? Hmm wasn't getting that from the previous posts

Wasnt it up to the ref to show him a red? Im sure McEntee would have went off if he was shown a red card

He's not thick like!! I mean 2 yellows doesn't mean play on lol.. He basically cheated by staying on, is it up to his team to take him off knowing it also? BC1 could fill us in

Difficult situation but forget about everything else - one team needed a goal in the last play and the other team put a 16th man in the middle of the goals for the last play. Would any team sit back and allow that to pass by and say nothing

No and neither should have Dr Crokes but hey ho they just got on with the result, this was the rematch after the drawn game with your man took 25 steps before scoring the leveler

It was a draw at the time of the sending off - no one will ever know the outcome in that last 10 minutes without the extra player Cross had, who was arguably their best forward.

Not sure why people are comparing this.
The referee didnt send the player off - this is down to one individual error.

KC had 16 players on the field due to a number of errors. Referee, linesman, KC officials, player entering the field, player not leaving the field (if indeed he knew he was to be taken off)

It's been compared as it is a similar event. You could fire a number of your errors you listed in with what happened to McEntee too, e.g. Cross officials, player not leaving the field. So it's inaccurate to say that was due to only one error. And what has the number of errors got to do with it anyway?

Could you then say that McEntee then cheated, cause he knew he had 2 yellows but decided to stay on?

Is this not we’re Brollys point was relevant that O’Rourke isn’t a Glen man and could potentially manage KC in the future?

I think that's overthinking it. He was asked in the spur of the moment and he couldn't speak on behalf of the club given what had happened.

You've been over thinking a lot recently

He’s not saying anything but there is a disturbing signal that the chief medical officer etc is not talking about. We should be getting an acknowledgment at least and some information on what’s being done about it, not head in the sand stuff.

To be fair there was nearly one more excess death after watching!!

The hospital service at the minute is crazy, I know this first hand as the mother in law is going through a awful time of it, waiting times to be seen the other night was 20 hours, 12 hour waits on ambulance services, was watching a show on dogs last night, there was a girl on and she picked up covid at the start and has never recovered from it, she was 24, she's using a wheel chair to get around so if the elderly had caught it they may not have died straight away or in the the after months.. We've had 2 cold snaps recently and a cost of living crisis, people haven't the money to put the heat on...

We have a huge elderly population that is not being cared for properly dues to on going restrictions... IF and its a big if, if the vaccines were killing people, surely the rate would be a hell of a lot higher that 10%?

Given there was 2 subs in additional time. Should the ref have played another minute after the 3 mins? One for you perhaps MR2

For me it’s down to how long that takes to get them off, injury time was 3 minutes, he played nearly 4 minutes or over?

Personally I hate time wasting, I lift my hand show I’m stopping the watch and then start it. Slow kick outs you can’t add it’s meant to be a yellow card for deliberately delaying.

From watching it at the time I personally felt 4/5 minutes would be plenty, 3 was a bit short for that.

But it’s down to each ref. The ref could have saved himself and allowed the subs after the 45, as no one can come on without permission

It might be normal for you but to the average club player playing in Croke Park is the holy grail, you can keep all those pitches for league or semis even .. but everyone wants to play there.

I hear that Crokes have told Croke park that they will hand the trophy and title to An Glen if they will accept it.

Hmmm interesting, I wonder how the Twitter gang will take to that if it happens?

Will Glen go to Croke to accept it on the steps of the Hogan Stand?
