Quote from: SouthOfThe Bann on April 18, 2024, 10:23:27 PMCavan team named.Yeah only the 3-4 scored from open play last day out. Quite the struggle
No Killian Clarke, McLoughlin or McVeety in starting 15.
Would love to see Cavan win this but unfortunately I think Tyrone will win this by 8-10 points. Cavan struggle to score from open play and will struggle to keep all the Tyrone fires out.
Ie. Canavan, McCurry, McShane if he back on form.
Quote from: jcpen on Today at 07:20:24 AMBad week for all English clubs apart from Villa. Probably not good news for English clubs having a 5th slot in the Champions League.

If I have to stop play.
Though if a physio comes on and can administer a spray while play continues I'm happy with that, should I have to blow the whistle and the player requires assistance they have to go off, now seeing as it was my first real go at it, I waved the player on rather than waiting for a break, he was genuinely hurt from a tackle from the other team, its a bit unfair surely to disadvantage them twice?
But is that not wrong, going by them new rules?
Completely
Bitta common sense needs to be applied and while I'm not against following it to the letter, sometimes it's actually counterproductive and not serving the reason why it's introduced
The reason for the new rules is to prevent cynical playacting, faking injuries to slow the game down like nicky quaid getting something in his eye last year.
If its genuine then it's harsh but if they're acting the bollox then I'd make them wait for the next break in play.
This rule was apparently amended during the week, to include the goalkeeper! Doesn't make much sense.
I said that a few weeks ago that to circumvent all this is for the keeper to go down. The rule didn't mention keepers.
I'd make it another player must stand i goals and team down to 14 players until next break in play.
