Was Some Of The Decisions Made By Referees At The Weekend Baffling

(Oldest Posts First)

I just wonder is it me ( and the great Mrs T) or was some of the Referees decisions baffling to say the least over the weekend.
One players should have been shown a straight red card for his tackle.
Referee s dident even consult his umpires or lines people before taking action.
Another player escaped punishment as he was on the blind side of the Referee.
I feel for clarity to the paying public and injured party that all Referees report from the weekend should be published

Some decisions were a bit odd Tom I agree. Less of the innuendo about us cavan people being mean and looking for money back, though. Sure any time we go up to your county, Monaghan, for big Ulster games, we buy all around us. Could it be a Monaghan Cavan final? That would be great Craic.

I feel more members of the paying public need to become referees.
It looks so easy from the stand.

Exile Dub It is widely know that good penmanship is a fools accomplishment , so you of 5920 Posts should consider yourself in some category.

Back to the decisions made at then weekend , one merited a straight red Card and probaly reminded me of a famous World cup challenge years ago, and the outcome was the same.
In any Gaa game everyone has to go to School. work, in the morning, so roughtplay should be stamped out

Chances are, you're familiar with one difference between was and were: that was is the first and third-person singular past tense of the verb to be, while were is the second-person singular past and plural past of to be.If exiled away down in Wexford you require any further tutorials dont hesitate to contact me, and as the great Mrs T said Tomsmith you are a font of wisdom
