But yet we still give the ref's online abuse and nothing done, with all the hype of this going on I'm still witnessing abuse at grounds.
None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought. Ea

Need to change (remove) the appeal process. Anyone who lays a hand on a ref, or verbally abuses a ref, should not be able to appeal the sanctions handed down, they should not have the mechanism to reduce their punishment. They should be made to stand outside the ground for each and every day of their suspension.

Was chatting to an official the other day and he said the appeal process at county and provincial level is gone and it goes straight to Croke to be dealt with

Seriously? Wasn't aware of that change. Is that for club players/ matches or inter-county?

But sure CP can reduce their sentence just as easily then

Yes they can but its not going to be influenced, it will be objective in that they have no skin in the game and with the current media hype with it I can see too many things being reduced

In Kerry, where disciplinary problems have led to the abandonment of U11 hurling and U15 football games in recent weeks, the county's referees committee has plans to meet with all clubs in the county to improve tolerance towards referees

If you can't control yourself at an U11 hurling match what is wrong with you? Individual suspensions aren't going to change this unfortunately.

Madness. I know we can all get carried away at matches if you're watching or coaching, especially if a family member is playing, but at the end of the day at underage the number one aim is for players to develop their skills in an enjoyable way in the hope that as many as possible at a high of standard as possible eventually come through to your senior team. What is enjoyable about that shit for children.

Maybe im reading wrong but it doesnt actually specify if it was adults or the children that were the problem...

The vast majority of abuse is from the line or behind the wire, players will react and some can be gobshites but at least you can card them

Maybe at 15 you can blame players but at 11s it's more likely coaches and parents that are at fault. And if the players are that bad at that age you blame the parents anyway.

Their is a problem with irish culture gaa culture or both  that sees this as some sort of banter.

They (supporters/coaches) need to be named and embarrassed on social media, would fairly tighten things up.

Ban them is a start but you can only ban them if they are part of a club, if they don't pay their dues to a club ya can't ban them! I know of one clampit that isn't a member of the association so couldn't be given a suspension.

We've all got them in the club, passion is great but needs to be controlled or not funnelled towards the officials but used to encourage your team. I've yet to hear a supporter squeal for a foul against his own team ;D

No problems with "ah ffs ref, are ya serious?" Or players showing frustration at calls but don't over step it..

if a ref gets assaulted should it not be an automatic win to the other team the only way to stop these people is if there actions have an effect on everyone so the clubs may tell these people f off.
