Are you serious SLK? That one line put you of reading the article?? Your a hard critic then.

I'd be more worried about the fact he wants the Armagh game in Dublin. I'd rather see it played at either Omagh or Clones before CP. But hey each to their own.

It really doesn't  ???

However, not a bad column all-in-all but it'll take a week or two for his own style to come through.  Talks a bit of sense at least.

It's his constant need to make us all feel that we owe "God" something and without "God" nobody would be able to do anything.  It happened to be a slightly better night than people expected, big f**king deal.

Are you an avowed atheist SLK?

I may well be but I certainly wouldnt make a habit of writing publicly about it in a daily newspaper if I was in the position MH is in.  Everybody has their own beliefs maybe he should keep his to himself. (I know I am giving my beliefs on here but this is a discussion board and I'm not in the public eye).

I can see where you're coming from, but MH's devout (and public) piety is such a readily identifiable and integral characteristic of the man at this stage that I wouldn't let it bother me one way or the other.

Sounds like you've suffered as a child SLK from a strict religious upbringing & so now any hint of talk of the man upstairs & you're off on a witch hunt.

I know there was some debate surrounding a few incidents during the game, and it was put to me that our defender Mickey McGee perhaps should have been yellow-carded, instead of being black-carded, for one particular tackle in the first half. Objectively, it was a decision that could have gone either way, but in this instance I think the referee's interpretation was correct.

I like the way Harte refers to the McGee black card incident, deflecting attention from the clearly more critical black-card (should have been a yellow) Sean Cavanagh was given, which had a direct impact on the result.

FFS now I just have to agree with you  :D

I don't think its really the place to be spouting religious stuff and perhaps I did over react by stopping reading the column, I actually found what he said interesting with regards to everything else in the column.

What tackle was it compared to?

I don't actually know, didn't catch all of the Setanta analysis.
