REM don't deserve this thread.

Anodyne, dull, instantly forgettable. Remove their entire catalogue from the annals of music and nothing changes.

Anyone that was at Slane in 95 to see REM knows how good they were, one of the best gigs inwas ever at. Everybody hurts was amazing. With campfires lit at the back. Long beofre mobile phones. I've seen them a few times. Great band with great songs.

Supported that day by Oasis.

I was at this gig too.  Legendary

I think REM would more highly rated than Sheffield Wednesday although I do agree with your Waddle assessment. Keane would be the LoI's best, Dalgish Liverpool's.

I'd imagine that any appeals will focus on the inherent lack of fairness and the flawed decision to cite one individual.

If video evidence is being used to cite Rian O'Neill then I hope they use it for further citations including McGee's provocation during play.   This was clearly premeditated.   Furthermore the invasion of Donegal's substitutes & backroom team who can't be easily identified due to bibs covering numbers has convinced me it was premeditated & orchestrated.  Result.  Objective attained.

[scorer-in-chief]

I'm very confused by the suspensions. If the referee felt that the five players who have been issued with suspensions contributed to a melee why did he not red card them at the time?  I'd also like to know when he wrote his report and whether he spoke to anyone other than a match official or heard any coverage of the match before writing his report. To me it makes little sense. I wonder too will the CCCC get involved for anyone missed by the officials.

I understand the point your making in terms of the independence of the referee's report but all the match officials are volunteers, are always open to ear-twisting and have to be trusted to do their jobs as honestly as possible.  My issue is that Donegal were the clear instigators which some of the officials clearly saw and yet Armagh will lose their vice-captain, scorer-in-chief and main mid-fielder whilst Donegal lose 2 mischief makers.

Who is the scorer in chief you lost?

So if Nugent is score in chief is Campbell the vice captain?

No. Try again

I'll give a clue re: one of the deliberate errors.  There is no vc

So 3 for Armagh and 2 for Donegal.........don't know how they picked Soupy out of all that was happening in real time, and why only 2 for Donegal......??.  But, we were involved and need to take the punishment and move on, although it is hard to comprehend how out of all that happened, Michael Murphy did not get banned given he started it just at then end of normal time where the Linesman was right beside him!  Time now for Armagh to focus on the game and hopefully this will drive them on!

Yeah Soupy seems unfortunate and its a bit bizarre that only two from Donegal. Probably little chance of being successful with any appeal as HQ are looking to clamp down on melees this year.

Without wanting to signal anyone out maybe some Donegal players got lucky in that their bibs covered their squad numbers and the referee couldn't identify them. On the other hand if the referee includes that in his report and CCCC look at video there could be a few more players in trouble.

I was at the match.  I hope the CCCC issue further suspensions because the ones proposed weigh in Donegal's favour.  The behaviour from the corner back was disgraceful.  Losing teams generally don't goad.

I sense Steve Baker is gunning for Johnson's job.  Interesting.
