Quote from: trailer on February 26, 2024, 08:50:22 AMSo with 24 games played in Division 1 and host of incidents that "gave the referee a decision to make" we can conclude to  the best of my knowledge Con Kilpatrick was the only player to have been sent off for a clumsy challenge and Tyrone are the only team to concede a penalty and suffer a black card from DOGSO decision?

Has there been any other red cards in Division 1?

Jarlath Burns has his work cut out if he wants to level the playing field.

Donie Smith got sent off for Roscommon.
Conn was sent of for striking i believe and should have got the line again at the weekend for the same thing.

Why focus on the fball MR, a no.of posters been ranted away for 40pgs, fball not mentioned once. don't let a minor detail of a fball match stop you's now.

Because him and the Derry Co Board  made a sideshow of this since the allegations came out.. If you really want to get into it, why did Derry suspend him last year when he was under investigation? Up there obviously football more important than anything else
Disgrace attitude to have but doesn't surprise me, seen them against us in league last year. No fans worst followed away side we faced and Gallagher and the players acting like scum. When the manager does what he does on the line and allegedly at home too it's hard blame players

Strange an innocent man relieved himself like this😂😂. Why now and not a day or two ago. Has done Derry no favours
#6
The silence from Derry Gaa is embarrassing
#7
Judging from his behaviour on the sideline i well believe this to be true, He was nothing short of a kn**ker in the Hyde last year so it seems he brings that behaviour home. Dirtbag

If the likes of Roscommon aren't called out for their feigning it's always going to run rampant in the GAA. It really does ruin the sport as it is worse than soccer.

Referee didn't cost us though. Armagh were woeful in the second half, same happened against Mayo.
Roscommon feigning? That's a bit rich given the dive that got Armagh a draw v Mayo ffs. Best bet the better team today dry your eye yeah sore loser

G McBearty a very good player, slowed down with age and weight. Sure there many a player wouldn't lace Murphy boots.
Very few will and I might seem harsh but never fell for the talk about McBrearty. Top baller no question but no better than 50 others in country. While top drawer not near top players in country and never was. Great man on the loop of the D but only does it seldom nowadays.my point been people talk of Donegal and say oh McBrearty this and that. I'd have two or three Armagh forwards,Monaghan, Mayo Galway list goes on forwards ahead of him, and if Donegal relying on him might as well pack it in

Word is filtering out that Patrick McBrearty could be out for the season after the injury he picked up against Tyrone.
Decent player but if Donegal relying on him they are fucked from get go. Overrated savagely. Wouldn't lace Murphy's boots and as good of forward in each of the other d1 teams

I do think the Derry Galway game was a once-off. They made a big mistake playing against the wind and game was over by half-time. It actually worked well for them the week before in Hyde Park so that probably played into their thinking. I'd say Derry would relish the chance to play Galway or Ros again, and indeed two of that trio could be provincial champions come Sunday with the potential of clashing in an All-Ireland semi. As for Sunday, it's a bit overused at this stage but it's 50/50, but also entirely possible that one team could win well. While the league means nothing, Kevin Egan's stat in Herald that Galway scored 0-10 to 1-3 in the league final when Shane Walsh came on will give Galway cause for comfort and Ros cause for worry. Galway do need their big 3 to play well to win. I do think we have a wider spread of players to take the lead if some of our key players have an off day. I don't expect AC to change his game plan, but Ros do struggle when a team packs defense and hit quickly on the attack - so I expect a more defensive approach from Padraig Joyce on Sunday.
Derry may relish meeting Galway or Ros again but from what i seen in the league game against Ros they were f**k all good. Bar the ref bringing them bavk into the game we would have beaten them by a similar score Galway did. I expext Donegal to beat them comfortable tomorrow and should either us or galway face them again i would be gobsmacked of Derry win

Maybe not, as that system doesn't and never suited Galway's style method of play. I would expect the defence to be pretty much the same as for the preceding 2 matches however, i.e. Sean Kelly in the FB line, thus not the same config that lost the league final. A proper partner for Conroy is needed for midfield (probably McDaid post throw-in) and a much better return from the forwards whose names aren't Comer or Walsh.
All the media talk on Galway(plenty when discussing this tie) namechecks Conroy walsh amd Comer amd dont get my wrong they all are unreal amd could decide this game but Kelly imo is not far off Galways best player. Fact he is so athletic and good that he can play anywhere probably stops him getting publicity like the others. Stack the same for us. Kelly destoyed us and others last year with his runs from deep

Call me old fashioned, but feckin online dating. What ever happened to slobbering all over some young wan at the disco. These were great times, playing some bog ball, a heap of pints in the local, off to town for more (spread the net a bit) then the disco, with luck, some fine looking young wan. Then a good feed in the chipper. Couldn't be beat.
On line dating, they deserve all the shite they get. ;D

A lot of footballers don't get to go to disco's or have a hape of pints due to the way things are in the gaa world with drinking bans and what not.

Fella beside me in stand said he saw it and I was totally stupid by the Sligo player but on the harsh side as Cox made most of it. Soon as Cox hit his free defender ran in and pushed him into the face is what I was told. Sligo No.5 was could have got a red just before that for a swinging arm tackle to the head.
Ended the game as a contest and while Sligo battled hard for the rest of the first half the game was over as a contest
