I would certainly not be happy with referee Lane Toney (Meath) - Posts: 298 - 18/07/2015 18:32:28 1755325 Link 0 |
As I said on another post it is better Derry lock there changing room door, run onto their bus and get out of Pearse Stadium with mouths closed. Because I am sure if they talk it will not be pretty, seriously hard done by. sam1884 (UK) - Posts: 999 - 18/07/2015 18:38:23 1755329 Link 0 |
At least 3 match changing decisions go against Derry along with a plethora of soft frees. No justice done here. Jimin10 (Meath) - Posts: 783 - 18/07/2015 18:39:22 1755331 Link 0 |
I would not be happy with my team or coach . No ambition one trick ponies , defend defend defend, posters defended that tactic when they played us in HQ ,wonder now if they see the folly of Not having an attacking stratagey . Damothedub (Dublin) - Posts: 5193 - 18/07/2015 18:39:48 1755332 Link 0 |
I thought he had a poor day - I thought it was a penalty, what do others think cuchulainn35 (Armagh) - Posts: 1676 - 18/07/2015 18:40:25 1755333 Link 0 |
Soft frees both sides and one bad black card call from the ref against Derry but where was the Paddy Bradley red card??? suckvalleypaddy (Galway) - Posts: 1676 - 18/07/2015 18:42:47 1755336 Link 0 |
@Toney - That's bull. Agreed, the black card awarded to the Derryman 1st half never was one. But Eoin Bradley got away scot free with a kick on Micheal Lundy near the end. Don't be blaming the ref. Derry lost because they weren't good enough and their indiscipline in giving away frees and then mouthing at the ref after doing so.

On reflection Galway shadded it but as when there was only a point in it, Conor Lane gave a soft free to Galway( when it should have been a free out ).... the referee gave too many soft frees to Galway today... as the game went on Derry probably knew that it wasn't their day..... cuchulainn35 (Armagh) - Posts: 1676 - 18/07/2015 18:51:50 1755342 Link 0 |

I don't expect Galway posters to admit how lucky they have been with decisions particularly today. But the reality is they are a poor enough team, probably play Sligo next but when they get to Quarters it is goodbye with or without soft decisions. sam1884 (UK) - Posts: 999 - 18/07/2015 18:54:22 1755348 Link 0 |
Everyone knows i have a soft spot for Galway, but some if those ref decision against Derry was shocking, that been said i am glad Galway won. royaldunne (Meath) - Posts: 19449 - 18/07/2015 18:54:22 1755349 Link 0 |
no way was it a penalty, Derry showed poor discipline and wasted most of the game going sideways handpassing, hard to watch, but Galway were better maroondiesel (Mayo) - Posts: 1197 - 18/07/2015 18:59:36 1755351 Link 0 |
I would have sympathy for Derry as regards the black card which should have been but apart from that it was their own poor discipline that cost them. Much like it cost Galway against Mayo. Two of Galway's points came from them mouthing off at the ref after conceding a free. Marooned (Galway) - Posts: 2225 - 18/07/2015 19:00:38 1755352 Link 0 |
From a neutral perspective the ref had a shocker but saying that not as shocking as Derry's attempts at attacking play. Best team won regardless of the ref. panamasam (Australia) - Posts: 2784 - 18/07/2015 19:01:08 1755353 Link 0 |
@sam1884 - next you'll be blaming the ref for Derry going 22 mins 1st half and almost 30 mins 2nd half without scoring. Ailteoir (Galway) - Posts: 864 - 18/07/2015 19:06:46 1755356 Link 0 |
Agree on ref,s performance with posters , but previous points made stand . Damothedub (Dublin) - Posts: 5193 - 18/07/2015 19:07:52 1755357 Link 0 |
Listened to it on the radio and even the Galway commentators were saying that the ref was giving soft frees to Galway. joncarter (Galway) - Posts: 2692 - 18/07/2015 19:31:53 1755365 Link 0 |
Ref was inconsistent no doubt, but if I was a Derry man I'd be more annoyed with how negative they were, championship better off without them. Galway better team regardless, all be it a poor game Koolsgang (Galway) - Posts: 15 - 18/07/2015 19:32:40 1755366 Link 0 |
Sky said it wasn't a penalty but then canavan thought Cummins free was soft also. Personally couldn't be sure in penalty but will take the benefit of the doubt. Cummins free was a free even though he had lost the ball by the time he was fouled. Re the first black card, did he trip him with his hand? If he did it was correct decision if he didn't then it wasn't. Did see a right close up. Mayonman (Galway) - Posts: 1842 - 18/07/2015 19:34:30 1755368 Link 0 |
Derry gave away silly easy frees in first half when they had control of ball and game.Galway cudnt get a touch for over ten mins.Ref helped Galway with some easy frees,exacerbated by extra yards from Derrys indiscipline.Black card harsh.Conditions tough and a tough game to ref with the defensive set up and slippy ball. carrigrua (Galway) - Posts: 363 - 18/07/2015 19:54:11 1755388 Link 0 |
