@ The Fridge ; As your username suggests buddy you need to chill! How do you know Kevin mcstay sends his players out to behave in this manner? That type of carry on is very seldom encouraged by managers and is purely spur of the moment stuff by players when caught up in a game!

Funny how these lads only pick up on these sort of things when you start winning. catch22 (USA) - Posts: 2148 - 08/02/2016 19:23:36 1823676 Link 0 |
I would definantly worry if Tyrone got Roscommon.....they are a great team in a higher division than us with great under age structures. It was an obvious observation from the game on Sunday.....they were very cynical. If this was Tyrone or Donegal there would be 15 treads with 100's of comments slating the cynical nature and "death of football" tribe.

A great win by Roscommon yesterday and they were very unfortunate not to have 4 points going forward- a very difficult task to go to Killarney at any time of year and come away with a victory browncows (Meath) - Posts: 2342 - 08/02/2016 20:39:45 1823716 Link 0 |
Extremely cynical from roscommon. The number 23 or 26 who came on deserved a straight red as well as a good slap. I have no time for those sort of antics. Something seriously wrong with the rules if a team can get away with that without any sanction. Disgusting behaviour from some of their players s goldrick (Cavan) - Posts: 5518 - 08/02/2016 20:57:04 1823732 Link 0 |

Touch of hypocrisy alright but they will need this cynical edge to survive in Div 1. EVERY team at the top level has this raw side so I wouldn't be overly critical. However it's the usual double standatds that are nauseating. Only Tyrone, Donegal and Monaghan get called out on this forum and within the GAA and Dublin media. It's total hypocrisy.

Maybe he isn't telling them to do it at all and it is just mysteriously happening - like tyrone under harte... TheMaster (Mayo) - Posts: 16187 - 09/02/2016 09:10:04 1823770 Link 0 |
Don't think that GAA has become more cynical with diving etc - there has always been diving in the game and people trying to get an advantage for themselves/con the referee or whatever you want to call it. What has changed is that the spotlight is being put on it for one reason or another. It's like those who try to convince themselves that the GAA wasn't dirty until those 'Nordies' brought rough and negative tactics in to the game whereas there is nothing new in the game which hasn't been going on for decades or probably the inception on the Organisation. I blame Joe Duffy. Offside_Rule (Antrim) - Posts: 4058 - 09/02/2016 10:03:12 1823787 Link 0 |
I think the Welford manager had something to say about Antrim's approach to the game at the weekend. I suppose you have to pay heed to the comments of the Cavan poster as he would have plenty of experience of such behaviour. Resorting to giving a fellow 'a slap' is an interesting approach to dealing with indiscipline. neverright (Roscommon) - Posts: 1648 - 09/02/2016 10:20:24 1823800 Link 0 |

Nice guys finish last unfortunately. For cynical play read "game management". Lockjaw (Donegal) - Posts: 9116 - 09/02/2016 11:13:17 1823838 Link 0 |
In my opinion, R Daly embarrassed himself with his behaviour and so did no10. manager5 (Galway) - Posts: 724 - 09/02/2016 11:21:18 1823843 Link 0 |
Interesting that Fergal O'Donnell did the interviews when Roscommon were beaten but McStay stepped up when they won. Eddie the Exile (Monaghan) - Posts: 1057 - 09/02/2016 11:46:50 1823867 Link 0 |
Or maybe Eddie they are going to do it game about? Everyone tries to read too much into everything nowadays. benched (Tyrone) - Posts: 534 - 09/02/2016 12:32:16 1823895 Link 0 |
