Watching it live I thought as the umpire was so close to and made his way to the place where the ball went over the line I thought straight away he was calling a 65'

Fair play,  and getting it correct was very good umpiring so not all bad.

Hopefully Davy gets a good ban for that mad outburst at the end. When have Waterford made it out of the group stages since it changed?

Hopefully United can upset the odds and pull off the shock of the year vs City. Squad is too thin for Europa next year though.

It looked like Waterford should have had a 65 at the very start, when Quilligan knocked it wide. Fine margins. Some of the umpiring was very poor today in both games

Did Man United make it into any of the European places?
Do they get the Europa League because they are in FA Cup Final?

Nope and hopefully they haven't the distraction of Europe either as they won't be able to use Thursday night football as an excuse that some clubs did this year..

Gotta win it so again, no European football

United would be better off out of Europe . Better to bring in  a  new manager  and a number of   new players and start the rebuilding.

If that means  bringing in "lesser" players  because of the lack of European football ,  then  so be it. United have enough  big time Charlie signings  on mental wages as it is.

Yeah looks like that St Peters team will win junior, don't think it's fair on proper junior clubs imo, let them play league but not championship maybe?

The runners up (provided they ain't second team) will represent Armagh in Ulster

Yeah happened last year. Ballyhegan who'd be a decent junior team and have been in intermediate recently were hammered by Clann Eireann seconds in the junior final and then played in Ulster. Just had a look there and CE seconds are 3rd in intermediate B currently.

No, Davy, you would have liked a puckout. You certainly didn't deserve one.

Think they're out unless they win the FA Cup.

Who got Liverpool's League Cup European place?

Who get the Conference League Place?

I'd imagine if a team outside the top 7 won the league cup they would take the conference league place. ATM Newcastle are in Conference league. If United win the FA cup they take chelseas Europa league spot, chelsea drop into conference league and newcastle don't get any European place

Yeah fair enough it didn't make a difference. Was he going mad over the fact he thought it was a wide not a 65? He'd want to have some eyesight to have known from where he was!
