Is this for real? Dromid are fast making complete and utter fools of themselves. I started this week thinking that Derrytresk were out of order, but as the week has gone on my mind has changed. The true colours of Dromid Pearse are being revealed and it is clear that they have an attitude of provoking responses from people and if this is the sort of whinging and provocation that the Derrytresk lads had to listen to during the match Im not surprised they reacted by punching seven bells out of them.
Meh, this is a bit of a ridiculous attitude. The crabbing of some sour supporters after the fact hardly changes the contents of the video/the circumstances of the brawl.

Its getting better by the day!!!! I hope we give them their moneys worth!!!QuoteDromid supporter wants his money back
27 January 2012
A Dromid Pearses supporter who attended last Sunday's controversial AIB All-Ireland club JFC semi-final against Derrytresk in Portlaoise is seeking a refund from the GAA.
Mickey Dennehy, who witnessed the appalling scenes in the company of his five children, is encouraging other supporters to do the same.
"I phoned Croke Park for a refund and I was told to put it in writing," he explained to Kerry's Eye.
"I intend to get a refund - and others should do too. The whole thing has left a sour taste in my mouth. It portrays Derrytresk in a bad way and has tarnished the whole area.
"It is a sad day for football. I will think twice about bringing children to any game. This is our national game and this should not have been allowed. Derrytresk are in the final, but they should not be."
Dennehy, who is an underage coach with Pearses, added: "I have been following GAA since I was a young boy and I am very disappointed that the GAA would allow this go on. I would be afraid for the children, it could have spilled into the stand. What is it saying to children - that the sneaky stuff can win?"

There's two sides to this story.
I've no idea if Hester is a capable man or not, but I presume he was appointed on ability. If the going rate for banking CEOs includes a 7 figure bonus, then I'd rather someone was running a public company properly, and getting remunerated accordingly, than the inverse.Quote from: theticklemister on January 26, 2012, 11:59:22 PM
although it recorded a £2bn profit in its most recent trading period compared with a £1.6bn loss in the same period in 2010.
He was brought in to sort out a mess, above states the results. Give him his deserved bonus.

I did. I assumed it was tongue in cheek, remembering the puke football tag etc.

If you pause the video of the row at 6 seconds in there are 5 members of Derrytresks backroom team (6 including the physio) on the sideline before it all kicks off.
Who are all these lads?
There is a single member of Dromids backroom team.
The reason the subs jumped in is because the guy with the clipboard became involved.
He shouldn't have been there in the first place.

I don't know where it is endemic. All I said was it is not endemic in Kerry. I'm explaining why Dromid were 'caught on the hop' if they experienced what they said they experienced. I am not having a dig at Tyrone or anywhere else. I would say that I experienced more off the ball stuff in Offaly, and in my opinion there is more bad blood at games in other counties that I have attended, (none in Ulster, relax) than I've seen in Kerry.
Caught on the hop? Dromid started the whole disgraceful scenes off. Derrytresk never should have let it get out of hand, but don't be making out that Dromid were innocent lambs in the headlights.
I'm not talking about the row alone. And please note I said " if they experienced what they said they experienced."
So, you are implying that Derrytresk are in some way used to this sort of behaviour and therefore are more experienced in dealing with the aftermath. But because Dromid were completely unaware that this sort of thing happened then they were "caught on the hop" and therefore reacted by running to the media. Have i now picked up the thread of your argument correctly?
What?? Stop trying to put words in my mouth. I'm trying to explain Dromid's reaction (wrong and all as it is IMO) to SUNDAY. I've no idea about what Derrytresk are used to. Dromid said they received some unacceptable behaviour on Sunday, and we've all seen the Derrytresk subs jump the wall in the row. Now, is that something that they do regularly? Not a clue. Is it something Dromid have faced regularly? No. Did it surprise them? Yes.
That's all I'm saying. Why do you think I'm saying anything about Tyrone? I certainly think Derrytresk were more in the wrong on Sunday, but the CCCC will clear that up for us I suppose. I might be wrong.

Ridiculous comments from Crokes, but just this :Quotehis type of thing never happened in Kerry when the opposite is true. I can recall an incident a few years ago between two neighbouring South Kerry Clubs who are located only a stones throw from Dromid that ended up in a court of law over a vicious assault.
The incident you speak of did end up in a court of law, and was thrown out. Also it was between two players, not substitutes or supporters.
I do agree with you regarding the comments in the media though, I think they've played that badly, but they are certainly angry and taken aback at what happened. But there are certainly rows down in Kerry, and bad belts. Probably not as much bad off the ball stuff as elsewhere, and certainly very little, if any trouble on sidelines.
Really? Do you really believe this?
Kerry football will be under the spotlight in the coming years - lets hope they keep their noses as clean as clean can be. I think the behaviour of both teams on Sunday was plainly out of order and Derrytresk need to take a massive share of that blame for not contolling their bench, but to claim that Kerry football has never ever experienced this kind of thing is just nonsense. I played with many Kerry lads in America and some of the stories they enjoyed regaling certainly contradicts what your purist vision of Kerry football is.
I actually do. I played a small bit down there, and I didn't receive half as much off the ball stuff as I did up in Offaly. I'm sure it does happen, but again, I think in general it's not endemic.
As for the supporters lark, I never suggested that it doesn't happen, just that it certainly doesn't happen often, and I have never seen it at any Dromid game, nor heard of it at any Dromid game.
Look, despite their bleating about Kerry purer than pure football, which is obviously nonsense, I do think what happened at the weekend is something that is not common, nor expected down there.
Well, i spent 23 years of my life playing club football in Tyrone and I can tell you now that i can count on one hand the number of games that i have been to and played in that had instances like this. It is most definately not endemic as you suggest but again, lazy comments from people with little experience of the issue can cause people to arrive at the view you clearly have.
Thats not to say the GAA in Tyrone has no problems to deal with and like any organisation with so many members it has its fair share of nutcases. But it is grossly unfair for Tyrone football to be tarnished in the way it has been while Kerry football retains some sort of holier than thou image perpetuated by people like you with your matter of fact statements who has limited knowledge of either counties.
Hang on. I never said it was endemic in Tyrone either. I'm speaking about Kerry, and I have more than limited knowledge of Kerry to be fair. I've spent quite a bit of time down there. What I am trying to do is explain why they might have been so taken aback by what happened on Sunday.
I have also never said Kerry football is holier than thou, or anyone else. They play the same game the rest of us do, and give and take the same belts on the field as anyone else. I do think there is less off the ball stuff and intimidation down there than in other place, including other places I've played. I'm wasn't even talking or thinking about Tyrone.
To the best of my knowledge, Dromid Pearses have never been involved in a day like last Sunday, and I think that is why they are going over the top in their reaction in the media. I think they are wrong to do so, but I am trying to put a bit of balance against those who are calling them sore losers. They are not sore losers in my opinion, they've been beaten loads of times in important games and have never suggested anything other than the usual 'ref rode us' that we all do.
So, all I'm saying is what happened on Sunday is not a common thing in Kerry, I've never seen Dromid involved in anything like it, and I believe, and still do, that there is not a culture of off the ball stuff like what has been alleged, in Kerry. Which is why I think Dromid reacted the way they have.
I say all the above without even mentioning Tyrone, Armagh, Ulster, or anywhere else.

Cross will love that.
I honestly hope the Cross boys play the football they are capable of and shut these whinging kerry feckers up.
