Roscommon v Tyrone - Nothing to Hyde here

[DaleCooper]

Yep , ref had blown. Annoying when that happens, wish they would tweak that rule to let score stand should it go over.

[tonto1888]

McElholm and Donnelly bought crucial frees though technically both were.

Rossies had every advantage and made criminal unforced errors at least 3 times.

Morgan did well I felt, Ros keeper will be disappointed with himself.

Cant be technically a free then call it bought lol. Usually i would say mattie does buy a few frees. No bought ones today however most of the actual fouls werent even given.

Don't usually defend Tyrone but how can you buy a free if a free was the right call?

[gallsman]

Ah lads would you give over about the McElholm one. It looked to all intents and purposes as if he'd been dragged to the ground. The fact McElholm managed to actually shake him off in the end and kick the point was fantastic, but every ref in every competition in the country blows that up as free straight away to give you the kick in front of the posts.

Taking the free also wastes valuable time on the clock that is crucial these days.

Gough had some howlers today but away out of that with your respective witch hunts. Crying foul because you got a free instead of an advantage ffs.

Whistle had been blown.

Whistle had been blown.

It was in reply to someone who said he bought a free. He kept going and scored.Clearly wasn't playing for the free.

[RedHand88]

One of the best games of the season and as usual everyone is yapping the referee who really was absolutely fine.
Do yous enjoy it?

[Killala]

Zero problem with the referee never mentioning him at all. All the football this weekend has been really exciting.

[CK_Redhand]

Wires crossed here. There are 2 McElholm incidents. The first where he hits it off balance and it goes over for a score. The second right at the end where he does get the free for the winning score

Calling it back 100% worked in Tyrone's favour there. Jordan was able to use up around 30 seconds on the free and make it more or less impossible for Roscommon to work the ball up the pitch for an equaliser.

Was a really good enjoyable game.

Gough gives a precious opportunity for Tyrone to not only take a late lead in the game but deprive the Rossies of any time left to get up the pitch holding onto possession and still some Tyronies can't help themself and fail to notice the precious gift horse from the ref.

[Rossfan]

Gough is an awful bollix.

Over no advantage? Should have called that back for the free for Tyrone.

Gough showing once again what a horrible ref he is. Allowed an awful lot of contact for Roscommon but was very harsh on tyrone. Absolute p***k

Let ye off with 2 penalties!

[Rossfan]

Tyrone just about deserved a win, smarter, well organised for many years etc.
A game we might have won but too many fumbles, bad passes, booting balls up in the air and loose defending and then the unfortunate kick out.
Restructuring the team to fit in 2 lads who didn't set the world on fire didn't help our cause. Of course if we'd won it would be genius management, now it looks stupid in hindsight.

Yeah the mouthy boys have been very quiet about that.

2? The only one i can think of was the one involving morgan and kierarn. Jedud even the commentators said it took them 3 viewings to determine that it could have been a penalty.

Some result for the neighbours against a very good Roscommon team. Hopefully they draw Jimmy and his merry band of knackers and knock 6 shades of shite out of each other.
