McQuillan did not cost CE that game, would you all ever catch yourselves on. The fouls on Darragh were fouls. At one stage he was grabbed and swung around 360 and one of you was whinging about him diving. Too many CE names didn't show up. Ruairi Canavan was the best player on the pitch by a distance.

Don't think EC will have the legs for Kilcoo's running.

It's not what he gave rather than what he didn't give. D Canavan doesn't need a second invitation to go down when he feels contact and in that regard is a chip off the old block - but most if not all were fouls. As were the two black card offences, the red card offence and at least one yellow card offence that he somehow missed.

I just pray that that EC bring the same shite to the final v Kilcoo.

15 v 15 CE win that game with a few to spare.

How on earth can anyone say this with a straight face given how 40 mins or the game at 15 v 15 went?!

[BigGreenField]

Too many CE men below par and some poor decision making, pitch awful although not sure if it impacted one side more than other.

EC vs Kilcoo-  may book the Market Place Theatre for the final with the amount of play acting that we are going to see.

This thread has been fantastic today. Emotional with nostalgia.

The decision not too black card for the penalty was a massive call mcquillan got wrong.

1. Deliberately pull down an opponent.
2. Deliberately trip an opponent with the hand(s), arm, leg or foot.
3. Deliberately body collide with an opponent after he has played the ball away or for the purpose
of taking him out of a movement of play.
4. Threaten or to use abusive or provocative language or gestures to an opponent or a teammate.
5. Remonstrate in an aggressive manner with a Match Official.

Go on then, which of these did McQuillan get wrong? Too many eejits banging on about rules they don't have the slightest clue about. Always the same with the square ball too. Someone was banging on about "a goalscoring opportunity" earlier FFS.

Number 3 was definitely met in the second half in a different incident but anyway.

Agree by the rules not a black card for the penalty which is the rule books problem in fairness.

Errigal Canavan ... God be with the days. Family has fair carried that club...

Clann Eireann 3 up and cruising? Did you actually watch it?

[Brendan]

Kilcoo or The Tyrone men, there are no winners out of this for the neutrals

Cruising! Jesus Christ. I watched it alright but not sure you did. They were 3 up late in the first half too and pegged back, so what's your point?!

[gallsman]

And if you've an issue about it being reduced to 14 Vs 15, there's one man to blame, and it ain't McQuillan ffs.

Do you think the rest of Tyrone are cheering for Errigal?!    at best neutral..

Thought myself earlier about the black card but here you go:

Rule 5.41 of the GAA's official guide states that a penalty shall be awarded in football when a player is "denied of a goal-scoring opportunity" due to a black card foul inside the 20m line (though not within 25m of either sideline) or within the semi-circular arc.

So while it was a goal scoring opportunity it wasn't from a black card offence.

I don't agree it was a second yellow but regardless, EC should have two men sent to the line.

Not a chance that was a second yellow, come on now.

It is a real shame that after some of the best point taking you're likely to see that the main talking point is the ref.
