If a fella strops another from making a run to collect a pass or get involved in a move that's off the ball but is definitely the type of cynicism that is intended to be covered by the black card.

That should definitely have been a black card. Surely he ref should have brought it back for a free when they didn't take advantage and he then should have black carded the keeper.

He was not collecting a pass though it was an off the ball incident .

From the replay the ref indicates straight away that he thinks it was a dive. Don't even think there was any advantage being played as the ref didn't even think it was a foul. Looked like the keeper definitely caught him though

I know he wasn't colllecting a pass at the time but he was prevented from supporting his team in a move which he could have contributed to.

I know he didn't give the advantage but hadn't seen that he indicated it was a dive, in his opinion. That was a mistake then on his part alright.

Its 100% a black card he's tripped him, there was a tussle between the 2 of them but hughes tripped him! he ran down the tunnel in fuming with himself.

Thought the ref did ok although there were a couple of neck-high challenges that should have been dealt with. I didn't see any replays but, at first viewing, it seemed as if the keeper had caught a Monaghan forward and should have been yellow carded for dangerous play. However the ref had a clear view of it and obviously did not think a foul had been committed. In fairness The Monaghan players did not make a fuss.
Fermanagh had very little on the bench once the first 15 tired. Monaghan have a very strong panel and every sub made a positive contribution when brought on. Hughes needs to cop himself on though and stop getting involved in silly incidents as Monaghan need his strength and drive on the pitch.

Eoin Donnelly got a dangerous and very cynical straight-arm "challenge" into the neck in front of ref. Probably not a red, certainly a yellow, possibly a black. No action taken. Seems to be unwritten rule in GAA if the person fouled is a big strong lad he's meant to suck it up.

Fermanagh gifted Monaghan a sloppy goal and two silly points in the first half; and then Monaghan had the bench and fresh legs to capitalise in the second half as Fermanagh ran out of steam. The Duffy guy who came on for Monaghan has great feet, arguably better yesterday than anyone who actually started for Monaghan. Fermanagh do their best, but they just don't have the numbers. As someone once said, half the county is under water and half of the other half doesn't play GAA ...

Do not understand. Goalkeeper trips forward as he goes through for goal. Black card. I just think there is too much pressure on ref's with the black card and getting it right.

Someone should keep a tally over the summer on how many black cards are awarded incorrectly v how many correctly awarded black cards result in a new thread being started on here criticising the referee.

In real time it was very difficult to ascertain that the Fermanagh keeper tripped the Monaghan forward. What was very obvious were the two neck high tackles on the two different Fermanagh forwards, which is very dangerous play and no card of any description given - in rugby those two would have been yellow cards resulting in some time on the side line. Dangerous play appears to not be very important in out modern game. Monaghan were the better team by a distance, however the silly pass/kick out in front of goals to a very slow Fermanagh defender did not help matters

If you were confused by some of those decisions, you should have been in Carlow today !!

A player through for a score is cynically pulled down ( Very early in the game ) , he gets a free OK, but it was blatant black card offence.

A player stretches for a loose ball on the ground, around midfield, gets penalised. It MIGHT have been an accidental trip at worst, he gets a black Card .

We have young men giving up so much of their lives, just to concentrate on inter- county football, and then all their hard work and commitment is ruined by officials who can't, or won't, implement the rules properly.
