Davey or any other player sent off in a similar fashion is very unfortunate.  Scullion had just done his best to cave his ribs in and Davey's reaction was instinctive, not pre-meditated like Scullion's "challenge".  Scullion's reaction was also pre-meditiated and OTT, but typical of the reaction of too many "men" in todays game.

Did he not break his nose in 3 places?  Prob should have just run it off though in fairness... 

Although he did give him a brave cleaver to the ribs there before getting his snout rearranged!

Not sure about that, any reports I've seen only mention a bloody nose.  My main point though is that Davey was reacting instinctively to a brave cleaver as you would put it and it always seem unfair to me that the player reacting in this type of situation is the one who gets punished.

don't forget this is a s'neils man viewing of this event to suddest he was lying down. Fit the bill perfectly

As for Davy reacting instinctively.. ...its county football...you take it, he has just let his mates and the entire county down doing that, but at the same time spirit i can understand his reaction also

To be fair to scullion the irish news reported him to be sayin after the match that if you give it out you have to take, so he didn't have too many complaints.

[Spirit of 94]

No Max, I'd think most of his team mates would sympathise, as would most fair minded spectators.

Fair play to Scullion though if that's what he said after the game.

On BBC news it says that Rory Galagher plays for St Galls - is that a mistake and it's meant to be Ronan or is that true? He'd be some signing if he were to play though he may be getting on a bit.

Will be the ruination of the present St. gall's team.
Will someone explain to me  why he is being recruited by the BBC and gaelic Life. Surely there are numerous players, ex or present who have been more successful and more loyal to their team than this guy.

Christ, I wouldnt think one more ego would make any difference to galls.

Theres no point having a successful footballer on the tv if he isn't articulate, is there? I've always found him pretty good on the commentary.

He's in the right place now. Loyalty to team has never been a big issue with the city men.
