Mayo had 16 players on the pitch vs Dublin in the 2021 championship match. Mayo even got to retake a missed F45 because of this transgression on their part. They scored it. This point was a ditect result of having that extra player on the pitch. But yet there wasnt a single word on here or anywhere in media about a replay, no outrage from Joe Brolly or the newstalk click bait merchants.. and to Dublins credit they didnt object after the match or cry outrage in the media. bad.monkey (USA) - Posts: 4624 - 25/01/2023 19:04:07 2454288 Link 3 |
The 17th lad was leaving the pitch. The 16th wasn't. Maybe there are specsavers over there?

Kilmacud with all their umlimited resources could not keep just 15 players on the pitch ? sponger (Wicklow) - Posts: 2896 - 25/01/2023 19:06:45 2454290 Link 1 |
Exactly but Croke Park will in all probability fine Crokes and leave it at that.

More than likely he got a bowl of soup in Westport that wasn't up to his high standards.

Mayo or any team from the county not involved but Donegal and Tyrone fans cant help themselves but make it about us. Ye might need to seek professional help for this before it's to late. cluichethar (Mayo) - Posts: 453 - 25/01/2023 19:28:59 2454295 Link 0 |

Viking I have no doubt you are right but it is about time the GAA got some brain power to deal with today's situations. When the NHL take action against a player or team there is no options for using legal power to wriggle out and money is in abundance there. Refereeing mistakes are very seldom reversed and appeals mostly unheard of. The risk of a failed appeal carries heavier punishment and this is a deterrent. The odd time a hearing is given the results are not public to be thrashed. Social media can blabber all they want but their opinion does not bother the people who run the show.

Crokes did nothing wrong.. they brought on a sub, the Derry player took the free before substitution was completed, referee should have blown the whistle to stop play, he didn't, ball went wide . Belclare (Galway) - Posts: 904 - 25/01/2023 20:23:17 2454301 Link 2 |

Are we allowed ask what happened to Kingdomboy1? I think it's only fair that we know why his name doesn't even appear on the list. Is everything alright with him or was he ejected? realdub (Dublin) - Posts: 8571 - 25/01/2023 20:40:45 2454306 Link 0 |
Exactly. Glen has to take some responsibility here. By taking the quick 45 when the referee had his hand up they prevented the substitution from taking place. Crokes were defending a 45 so did you expect them to have a player walk off the pitch in the middle of the attack. While the offending player was on the goal line, the kick actually went wide. He was not interferring with play. As referee had his hand up, the sub was entitled to enter the field. If the Glen player has to obey the referee's hand signal, the offending player would have time to leave the field. Jack L (None) - Posts: 3097 - 25/01/2023 20:43:18 2454307 Link 1 |
You have to ask yourself what exactly is the point of linesmen? Umpires have more input and say in any game and they are not even qualified! Yet the linesmen/women are qualified refs and one of their duties is managing substitutions. There is no excuse for what happened at all. It is unfortunately an amateur sport with poor officiating and even worse rules. Looking forward to the endless cycle of appeals around this game. arock (Dublin) - Posts: 4892 - 25/01/2023 20:56:34 2454314 Link 0 |
I am sure that Watty Graham's players could well do without this. Derry probably playing this weekend and need their players back. But if they didn't appeal this they would have allowed the flaunting of a rule which would have opened the flood gates for the months ahead. I think the only outcome at this stage would be to declare the result null and void and leave it at that. Strip Kilmacud of the title. Let the league go ahead. End off. border Gael (Monaghan) - Posts: 893 - 25/01/2023 21:01:10 2454315 Link 0 |
That's actually interesting. This happened to the England Under-19 Women's team against Norway in 2015. They were 2-1 down, awarded a penalty deep into stoppage time, the goal was ruled out because of encroachment but play was incorrectly restarted with a Norway free out instead of the English penalty being retaken, cos them's the rules. UEFA ordered the last minute or so of the game to be replayed, beginning with the penalty retake.

What a daft post, there is no rule breaking by taking a quick free,but having 16 players involved in play at any time of the game is cheating

Ah yes, the old "they should take it like men" argument, I'm surprised it didn't pop up sooner. Sure so what that the opposition defended a goal with 16 men, or so what if some lad who got two yellows got substituted and not sent off, or so what if the ref blew it up 5 minutes early right as someone was being fouled in the box or whatever. Sure them oul rules do be just gettin in the way of lads who want to play football. "They should take their beating like men". Why don't we just throw the rulebook out the window and replace games of football with skills competitions, and a panel of judges can vote on which is the better team. That would get rid of them oul rules once and for all.

Wrong. With that logic, officials could totally ruin a game like blow it up early, or give a lad two yellows and let him stay on, or fail to record a score, etc etc, and we'd all have to just accept it. Really.

I know this might be a big ask but , 1- is there anyway officials could use TV replays for major calls like Croke's penalty on Sunday? It was a very close call and at speed you need a few looks to know for sure. All in all the replay will make up for the penalty mistake as well. There are two or three simple things the ref can do in all games to help. Another is marking the spot for frees with foam, nothing as bad as men stealing yards especially to widen the angle.
