Eamonn Fitzmaurice said the ref came back for the advantage after Conroy overcarried in the 1st half.
I thought you could. Otherwise what's the point of the advantage it would actually at times be a disadvantage

So say a case comes to them from the cops. Do a small group of them look at it and decide to prosecute or is it discussed between a big group and an answer is given?
I was just wondering how it works. I hear PPS mentioned a lot but am just wondering how it is behind the scenes.
Not sure of the exact numbers but around 150 - 200 prosecutors and 300 - 350 support staff split across different regions and specialisms. Cases will be effectively triaged to the correct team and level of seniority. Ultimately it's the directing officers responsibility but they will know seek help and assistance from colleagues and superiors if necessary.Quote from: David McKeown on April 25, 2024, 10:51:20 PMQuote from: marty34 on April 25, 2024, 09:31:05 PMDavid, regarding the PPS.

I have recently seen the police decide cases are not worth pursuing and a waste of public expenditure, but are passed to PPS for endorsement, yet the PPS dig in and proceed with the case.
Do the PPS have graduates who they throw minor cases at for them to gain experience?
Quote from: Main Street on April 30, 2024, 01:55:22 PMCan the PPS back off with the prosecution (eg after 6 months) but reserve the right to take it up again in the future?
Quote from: J70 on April 28, 2024, 05:29:41 PMArmagh and Donegal have played 140+ minutes of football this season with a single point separating them.
Yes, it's clear that it's Donegal's to lose.

Quote from: Milltown Row2 on April 27, 2024, 07:02:10 PMThat last free, he didn't blow for the 'first' foul, blew for the obvious round the neck free, spoke to linesman, free then given for first free (which you can't do) and thankfully he missed

Down played out of their skins.
Armagh are a limited side, a different ref today and they were bate.

So would calling for the deportation of 7200 people "whose asylum applications have been refused" be a far right
Position?
All I say is there was a famous case last year where an asylum seeker in Belfast had his claim for asylum refused at first instance. The reason for his refusal was he had claimed he would be persecuted in his home country because he was involved in guerrilla warfare. The Home Office rejected that this would entitle him to asylum because 'gorillas are an endangered species' and fighting them shouldn't allow him to claim asylum.
So id at least like appeals to be dealt with first
is this true?

As I said before, it is hard to see how you can prove something 20 years ago beyond reasonable doubt, I doubt there were witnesses other than his wife.
Hearing other cases the PPS didn't prosecute due unlikelihood of conviction even when there is evidence, they must feel there's a high chance of conviction based on what ever evidence they have. No?
I've no idea myself - I'm doing a lot of reading between the lines and may well be getting it wrong.
Today was the 1st appearance. I'd be shocked if the PPS even have the full file yet let alone have made a decision. It would be unusual for them to have the full file yet particularly if the allegations only surfaced in March.
So does that mean the PPS could still decide not prosecute?
I've no idea how these things work, I'd made the assumption it only gets this far if the PPS are already in a position to prosecute.
Interesting.
