Gaelic Football - Rules & Regulations discussion/clarification

[Main Street]

Well David, that got a bit long. That is the hooter rule re a ball in flight. It had changed to allow such a line ball awarded before the hoot, that change was documented, voted upon and  reported in official documents and the media, at least one ref did not read the memo and was informed by another ref on the pitch in the Monaghan Derry. The change Smoking Joe says happened, well there is no record anywhere of it happening and no backfire since the Sam Mulroy goal.

Unless I'm misreading it what Smokin Joe said is that the goal was the Louth goal was fine and should have stood. From your post it seems it shouldn't have. Having read this thread I'm none the wiser.

My complaint is that this strikes me as a fundamental issue this and one you'd think would be covered in some form in the rule book or the FRC report or easily accessible document from central council but it doesn't seem to be.
