Very easy win for St Pat's last night against St Marys Magherafelt. They played a lot of good football and also played as a team. That game will bring them on a lot for the quarter.

Alot tougher assignment against Mccartans in the 1/4 finals. Promises to be a great match up and game which I fancy Mccartans just to edge, overall winners could come from this tie. Either way one off the favourites will be going out, good news for all the remaining teams.

Must have been a great game to watch - all attack no defence? Haughey may have been in the Down minor panel last year put I don't remember him starting any games, he certainly seems to be on fire at the moment.

Abbey/ dungannon match now on tomorrow night
Close one to call but think abbey might squeeze through.

naka · February 13, 2014, 08:59:23 PM

As I said close game which was a credit to colleges football
Game ended all square 2-13 each
Abbey looked dead and buried with 4 mins left but pulled a goal and a point against wind to equalise .
The dungannon firstgoal was a top class effort from a Rory mc gloane( I think)
Classy player .
Poor conditions but two strong teams

Great goal, but what exactly is the craic with steps these days? Are you allowed as many as you want if you're about to pull the trigger?

naka · February 13, 2014, 09:58:37 PM

Fair comment but in real time it looked great

haranguerer · February 13, 2014, 10:04:18 PM

I can imagine, and I'd have been as pissed off as anyone else if the ref had blew...but with all the talk about enforcing rules, it's one that seems to be just left to any refs interpretation. Like if you were strolling out of defence with no one round you, you'd be blown for 4 and a half steps, but when you're going by men or bearing down on goal, you'll get away with 8. It's just strange

The refing in that game was seriously suspect. The Abbey can without doubt thank Higgins for keeping them in the competition. In the closing mins he allowed a 14 yard free to be retaken after been missed. Academy 4 pts up with 2 mins left on clock Academy played a long ball into Fintan McClure at fullforward. McClure was out in front and was clearly pushed in the back. Ref gives a free out for touching ball on ground not even the most partisan in the ground could understand it. Had the decision been made fairly Academy would have pointed and been 5 up game over. Instead ball goes down the other end goal. Ref calls 3 mins extra time. Abbey equalises in the 4 min of extra time. I dont often comment on ref'ing but i did find that display very questionable.It's not up to the man in the middle to have such an impact on the result.
