Replying To Solo_Run: "Now lads, don't be like that. Wasn't our fault.
I remember it well, was at it. Didn't see it as a penalty "live", of course you don't see replays at the match. Standing with friend, didn't see anything wrong either. Saw the replay afterwards, was it foul technically yes - but it was awfully 'soft' and if refeering like that there would be frees every time two players came in contact. I wouldn't have been happy if given against us, and would have felt robbed.
Besides (1) in the long run you prospered, we regressed but hopefully on the up now - very young though, but talented, and contrary to some opinon here, I don't see them struggling physically - haven't so far against Sligo, Galway, Down and Carlow despite the youth (2) Who hasn't suffered at bad / soft decisions, Over a decade ago we had the clearest penalty I ever saw not given in the closing mins of a championship match vs Sligo to take the lead - it wasn't even close, I'm still not fully over it!!!
Anyway, different teams now, and have been pleased to see your progress back up to Division 2 - shows what can be done."
Ah I dont mean that in any bad way, as in an anti Leitrim way. As far as I remember every Leitrim poster on this site sympathised, and reckoned it was very soft. But it should definitely be motivation for our lads all the same.
