Does that last bit even need to be said? Anyone who thinks this stuff only happens north of the border only see what they want to.

Who ever said it was only ulster. I'm sorry that is trying to play the victim card. It happens everywhere and needs to be condemned

Referees are not just 'abused' at GAA matches. People need to wake up to that and realise that yes - traditionally referees did take a lot of abuse but it has changed a lot and it is not nearly as bad as it used to be. The advent of the mobile phone and the ability to turn it on makes it seem that it is really bad... there have been a few I will admit that but - other sports have also seen quite a few very unsavoury incidents where parents etc have gotten involved with the match officials and yet these do not get the same media coverage. carlowman (Carlow) - Posts: 1812 - 21/01/2019 21:39:24 2158765 Link 0 |

I see education in the US is still lagging behind while they pretend it's top notch

Maybe, I do not know maybe you do but where did you get the reliable stats from. I do know that that there are 50 plus GAA matches for every rugby match played in the country.
