I see Glenn Ryan's not happy.  Didn't see the match but does he have grounds for it? What happened?

I thought the ref was fine, if anything he gave kildare a non free early in the second half that was a tap over, I didn't think he gave Dublin anything soft. There was one call for a line ball that was 50/50 but the linesman must've got it correct, the SG appear to have been gagged lately on any ref calls. McCaffery double hopped for his point but the ref was playing advantage and had the free been given it was a tap over.

I don't know what his waffle about what was going on along the sideline is about. I was over the far side of the field.

"It's frustrating from the point of view that - I suppose everyone gives out about the Croke Park thing - but you come up here and you don't get a fair crack of the whip," Ryan said.


Ryan consoles Jimmy Hyland after the game
"Well, there's fellas walking up and down one side of the official and nobody can do anything down the other end. Fellas standing in my so-called box and my own officials being told to get out of it and there's somebody from the other side [in it]."

Ryan bemoaned some 50-50 calls that he felt didn't go his team's way late in the game. "There's sideline balls not given, a fella tripped up in front of the goals, wasn't given," Ryan claimed.

"It sounds like sour grapes but I know I'm reflecting the views of most teams around the country that everything is laid out here [for Dublin], number one, from a familiarity perspective, from a games perspective and, you know, everything else seems to go their way as well.

"Sure we'll play anywhere, but you want to play anywhere when it's fair. And there wasn't anything glaring, nothing glaring. There were calls went either way, but when you look at stuff that goes on on the sideline and the dressing-rooms and all that, you know, it's all wrapped up in it."

It's the old adage ....... a home game is a home game is a home game
