It has everything to do with the referee.

If the game was ref'd fairly from the start do you think the supporters backs would have been up. It was as if the ref was the 16th Dawson man .. that's why the supporters reacted the way they did.

If it was the other way around .. you would have had the same reaction and I guarantee the Steelstown supporters would have been quiet.

It's a passionate game and it brings out emotions and reactions that you don't normally display. It was also a big game for both clubs and to win would have meant a lot. I would say never mind the booing .. if you listen to some of the language on the stands .. booing is the least of your worries.

There's no point labouring the issue .. the game is over and we both know the ref spoilt it.

You can't blame the supporters for getting frustrated with Brolly. Anyone who was at the game will tell you that nearly all the free's went Castledawson's way and no bookings and there was a couple of harsh challenges that deserved a card. However I can't take away Dawson's last 2 points .. that was their best points of the game. I believe if the ref had been fair it would have been a much better game for both teams. Steelstown should have held on for the last 2 minutes.

I take your point .. stupid behaviour from the side line stepping onto the pitch.

Don't agree with the crap about soccer, there was plenty of decent people that came out to support the team that couldn't believe how corrupt Brolly was .. but for anyone who knows him ..this was nailed on from the start.

Disappointed for the lads .. they worked hard and deserved a fair chance at the game and they didn't get that.

The only winner here was Ciaran Brolly .. he refereed the game the way we all expected and most likely got a pat on the back and a golden handshake from the county board .. absolute disgrace.

I am quite sure Castledawson would have perferred a fair game won on their own skills .. rather than with the aid of the referee .. they know it was wrong when the Castledawson captin acknowledging that there were some dubious decisions that didn't go Steelstowns way.

Well done Steelstown .. you won the game .. it was the ref who lost it for you.
