Referees have been called back, at the next break in play, by umpires and linesmen to discuss off-the-ball incidents, since forever and a day. Some will act on their fellow official's advice and administer cards, some will not. But I don't yet think I've ever seen the previous passage of play cancelled as a result of the retrospective card / cards.

I think some people have been watching too much association football and its bizarre and erratic implementation of VAR, and gotten confused.

Nah, common sense really. Throw ball should be the next step at a minimum.

Incident happened, ref didn't see it as he was following the ball.
After the ball went out of play for a 45 he was alerted to the incident and took what he believed was the appropriate action i.e red card.
Then play resumed with the 45.

If a Derry forward hit a Dublin defender off the ball at the same time , got sent off, it wouldn't be a free out for Dublin.

But surely it should be a free in those circumstances, not simply a case of continue irrelevant of the foul.

Why did the ref not give a free after Fentons foul?

Never seen a free given for that situation? Red card was correct call.

Surely if a player commits a foul, that leads to a red, then it should be a free. Can't see how Dublin still get to take the 45.

Why did the ref not give a free after Fentons foul?

One of my main issues is the lack of an identifiable style of play. 2 seasons in and United hlseem to be just a bunch of 11 individuals playing their own individual way.

Ten Gag usually spouts the most ridiculous dung after fames. Surprised he hasn't said that United played their best football all season and that the progress is obvious. He isn't good enough.

What's this year's minor side like?  Saw they lost a shield final yesterday to Armagh. No hopes for honours this tear?

Original was miles better. This one was pretty poor and seemed to use CGI a bit in scenes where it wasn't needed. McGregor was terrible.

how does this effect northern ireland and all ireland will they not just move on from this and throw donaldson under the bus how does this change NI politically apart from an internal dup thing.

If those who didn't want to back into power sharing are now in charge then this could have serious implications.

I heard rumours that that victims were close relatives.

You're not allowed to name defendants for Sexual offences in the North.

And nobody gets named until they are charged

The two were charged when the reports came out earlier with no names included.

Finished 3 Body Problem too, brilliant show and something a bit different too.

Watched first half an hour of 3 Body Problem and turned it off as it seemed crap and thought it was one of those multiple, universe inside universe shows like Inception or something. Nothing else to watch last night so stuck on the rest and ended up watching 4 of them. Turning out very good.

Were DJ Carey, Gerard Cavlan or Darren Gleeson ever banned?

MOTs up in price significantly, so paying more for a service that has never been poorer.

If you can be run out for allegedly being violent towards someone then surely a proven unprovoked violent attack should lead to the same conclusion.
