Dortmund the better team in the first half yet 0-0.

Always ominous against this crowd.

Yes Real Madrid now in front.

The foot block is a non-issue. It wasn't a foot block. Mayo got a penalty that was never a penalty but a free out. They won by 2 points. It was the difference in the end in a game where there was never much in it until that decision. It is what it is. Life bees that way sometimes.

Maybe. But Roscommon's penalty was a penalty at all. There was barely contact.

When's the last time they scored a goal? Direct from a corner in the world Cup pool game was it?

A well deserved win for Offaly and a very entertaining game in the end. Screeney had another big game for them but it was far from a one man display.

We had Sweden in our WC qualifying under Vera Pauw and we were more than a match for them home and away. Yes, they are one of top teams in world but we definitely have gone backwards.

Had to laugh at a quote Pauw made recently in an interview with the IT; said she had to instruct her players to keep it as simple as possible, they weren't able to understand anything else.

Yep, Vera is vile. No surprise she's failed to find a job since.

Could anyone who thinks that was a footblock explain their understanding of the rule and of what happened?
It was nowhere near a footlocker imo and I'm genuinely amazed at how many people think it was.

Everybody knows it wasn't a foot block. But GAA culture leans towards claiming ignorance and willingly cheat,rather than accept defeat. 

Think thats just life rather than GAA.
