Was it really that bad lads?I was half expecting it to be the main news story on liveline today.A little unsavoury,but a little over-the-top on here also. cuederocket (Dublin) - Posts: 5084 - 07/03/2016 18:57:50 1832025 Link 0 |
SamOnErrigal, yes there was an infamous 'friendly' played in NY where there was a lot of nasty stuff going on, not sure about a broken leg but the odd nose and possibly jaw got a good hammering. Yesterday's Kerry/Donegal tie was not a nice game but it certainly wasn't unique. If there was social media back in the 70s/80s it would be bursting at the seams with talk of dirty play.

Cue mostly the usual hand bags stuff apart from McGee/Fitzgerald other than that nothing really in it apart from pushing and shoving. clondalkindub (Dublin) - Posts: 9926 - 07/03/2016 20:30:34 1832062 Link 0 |
Considering Fermanagh and Armagh got €5000 fines last week for very little in comparison to yesterday and Sean Quigley got a suspension I would suspect 2 big fines and a few suspensions. Armaghball (Armagh) - Posts: 96 - 07/03/2016 20:31:45 1832063 Link 0 |
Thanks Kerrykillers as I know it was anything but a friendly but it happened a long time ago SamOnErrigal (Donegal) - Posts: 1427 - 07/03/2016 20:55:57 1832079 Link 0 |
Yesterday was a poor day for Kerry and Donegal. Kerry got the two points so will be a bit happier but in truth it wasn't what you'd expect from two of the best teams in the country. It was noticeable that the younger members of both squads were more intent on playing football than the older players which leads me to believe that neither team was sent out with a game plan to be as bad as they were but instead this was settling old scores.

The only team capable of putting Kerry back in their box are Tyrone. There's no one about at the minute prepared to take Kerry on at the cynicism and dark arts. We need a few more Dooher, Gormley, Hughes types to clip their wings. It was no surprise, and I predicted this yesterday , that the entire Southern media lauded and praised Kerry for their antics. The end justifies the means for them I.e. the defeat of an Ulster team and they don't care how it's done. All their hypocritical guff and nonsense about 'playing the right way' goes out the window with Kerry and Dublin as we seen last season. They will excuse and provide cover for ANYTHING these two get up to. Ulsterman (Antrim) - Posts: 9837 - 07/03/2016 21:47:24 1832107 Link 0 |

Just to make a point that Dublin get away with a lot of stuff is bs; in 08 we played Meath in a league game there was a big hand bags pushing and shoving match with not one punch thrown after that game we had 8 players suspended for the next two games which were that league final and the first round of the championship. clondalkindub (Dublin) - Posts: 9926 - 08/03/2016 09:25:21 1832141 Link 0 |

It is actually comical to see Tyrone trying to take some moral high ground. But I'm not even going to open that can of worms. Lockjaw (Donegal) - Posts: 9954 - 08/03/2016 09:51:17 1832155 Link 0 |
Sorry clondalkin, you are aware that that is a full 8 years ago, right? So you had to go back 8 years to get a bad call against you... That doesnt really back up your argument to be honest man TheMaster (Mayo) - Posts: 16187 - 08/03/2016 09:54:25 1832161 Link 0 |
Thought Eddie Kinsella and his team of officals done all they could on another day there might have been a mass brawl...Like Mayo v Meath 1996 and Louth v Laois 1991 such was the horrible tactics that were going on off the ball...
