Quote from: illdecide on May 05, 2024, 08:43:52 PMI think a lot of you need to think more carefully about calling these so called people "Fans". I'm from Lurgan and it pisses me off a bit when people come on here and just post up "Lurgan people are scumbags". These people you are talking about come from everywhere and don't care what the attraction is, they're there for the party and couldn't name you 3 players. The real fans are there for majority of the games home and away through thick and thin and thousands come from Lurgan to support Armagh.Lurgan ones ares scumbags though
I see drunken fans at every game from every County so no crap about being far away to travel/size of town nonsense or whatever else was posted, the fact is the further in the Championship you go the more idiots you get unfortunately. The All Ireland final will sort that out as tickets are so hard to get and there'll be no Lurgan ones drunk at that either.
Quote from: Manning18 on Today at 04:21:41 PMDidn't think it was over the line tbh and in fairness umpires and refs don't get replays. Good few bad calls all round though.Quote from: joemamas on Today at 02:08:57 AMQuote from: GalwayBayBoy on Today at 01:40:16 AMQuote from: Main Street on May 05, 2024, 08:26:28 PMGough was fortunate that Galway won, If they hadn't won, he would've been melted on the spot by the extent of Joyce's ire post game. Considering the 2 shocking decisions when Galway were trying to claw back the 3 point deficit, the two soft frees they did get just balanced things out.
But that's not how a game should be reffed.
Overall I thought Galway were well worth the margin of victory.
Think Gough realised that he gave Mayo a couple of very marginal calls heading towards injury time so gave Galway a couple of marginal calls during injury time. That's what it felt like at least. That said I thought Maher got clattered for that free. Even if he was expecting the hit. Not sure how that one is even controversial.
Maher dove after he knew he was not gettin it.
Tommy Conroy got all ball. The reaction of the three or four Mayo players around it really tells the tale, they were incredulous.
But as I said earlier Gough did not cost Mayo the game.
He Did give us a fair few 50/50 ones earlier.
The biggest decision in the game was the Galway goal being over the line by the RTE slowmo doing the rounds on twitter and not being given. Even if that wasn't given as over the line (it was), Brickenden basically threw the ball out thereafter. By rules is that a penalty or a 14 yard free? Huge moment nonetheless. A couple of dodgy calls in Galway's favour in injury time doesn't change the fact that Mayo benefitted from Gough more than they were hindered

And as Joe (rightly and constantly) bemoans the likes of Trump, the Tories, Israeli gov't etc for getting the lie out first, because that's the message that'll stick more the actual truth, he does the very same re the GAA.
Even our red hand neighbours would love to see us win Sam the year to see the hooer squirm, yes? Surely
