Went to the Creggan game yesterday. Was impressed with LD and arguably they could have won. However, Creggan were denied 2 stone wall points in 2nd half which would have put the game to bed. Both at least a foot inside the post. I know the umpire got a lot of abuse but surely it was up to the ref to overrule. Very strange officiating. A good game for the neutral nonetheless

Was Hawkeye not in play?

[Mickey Linden]

Hawkeye would not have detected either in this instance. They were not close enough to inside of the post.

[Milltown Row2]

He'd have overruled the umpire if he felt from his view it was over? No?

I'd a couple of calls that were questionable, the ball was that high with the evening sun strong it's not always as easy to get it right. Your placement could probably have been better

If Mickey says they were scores they must be. May get the county to change the scoreline and award the 2 points to creggan.

A man standing directly beside a post couldn't possibly be correct! Those 50, 80 or maybe 100 yards away in a crowd on a hill or especially those on the opposite sideline know better for sure.

[Mickey Linden]

Not having a go at anyone in particular. I was a neutral so made it more enjoyable for me. Just stating what I seen. The 2 points were not even close to being wide. As bad as call as ive seen. May well have been the sun. I had a good angle as was standing on the bank

Or an Irish News journalist up on a balcony, he must of had a better view than the guys at the posts and the ref directly behind

No wasn't, how's that relevant. I bought an Irish News that's the height of it

So you read the view of someone that was at the game? They weren't on the pitch or umpires?

[EOC1923]

I'm saying Crossan is a terrible journalist. He basically made fools of the officials in his reporting stating he could see from the balcony they looked like points. He also gave the Creggan manager room to state he was surprised by some decisions. My earlier post was sarcasm.
