mulligans goal was illegal

doesn't it show you how stupid some of the rules are when you have a ref here telling us it was illegal...thank god you were not in charge of that game...fussy p***k

You cannot throw the ball from one hand to the other. Yellow card for Maximus Dickamus
he didnt throw the ball from one hand to the other

fantastic and legitimate goal.


Yes he did, and the number of steps taken was dubious also.

Rules are rules, if you want to go throwing the ball around invite the globetrotters into the next all-ireland, sure they could play instead of Derry ;D

Lyngs was a good goal, but dont be silly Tony.
Mulligans was pure class. Had the misfortune to witness it live on the day :'(

Over the Bar

QuoteYes he did, and the number of steps taken was dubious also.

That arguement would make most goals scored illegal then.

You can argue on the technicalities all you like, but Mulligans goal will long be regarded as one of, if not the greatest ever on the hallowed turf.   End of.

close the board down, over the bar has delivered his verdict.

the greatest GAA goal of all time belongs to Seamus Darby, but id say the track of the nappy wasnt even on yer hole when that happened.

Sure was that not a push in the back anyway?

Mulligan did not 'throw' the ball from one hand to the other. That would suggest that there was daylight between both of his hands and the ball when he threw his 2 dummies... simply not the case. You are allowed to transfer the ball from one hand to the other as long as one hand stays in contact with the ball at all times.

Never argue with a referee screen. The little Hitler syndrome dictates that they will be correct even when wrong.

Don't know why I got involved.. this row has been going for 3 years now and people still fail to accept the truth about it. Regardless of what anyone thinks the goal stood so no amount of arguing about it is going to change anything!

T Fearon

His Holiness, I witnessed both goals live and remain convinced that Lyng's goal was the best of the two. It's just a pity Wexford hadn't the confidence or Matthew Forde, to push on

Really! I thought you had to hop of tap the ball before it. Or maybe I'm confusing hurling rules along in it

Is tony actually giving some credit to Mulligans goal with this comparison? As we all know it's only ever the greats that are compared ;)

Bensars

So much for going to the game as a neutral observer then.

Tony most on the board know your feeling towards Tyrone and the disgraceful comments you posted a few months ago about the same player, Mulligan.

Get over it.

I thought you Nordies all stuck together and cheered for each other Tony?

Anyway, the agrument over the greatest goal of all time is silly. Theres no possible way to define that. Its all about personal taste and to claim as fact that one is the greatest is arrogant in the extreme.
