You donât want to do that now. Its not the best.
They should put New York into the league, hurling & football. They should be allowed play all their games at home & the GGA should pay for their competitors transport over & back.
It would allow them market the game as a regular thing in New York rather than a once off and itâd give lads slogging it out in the lower divisions, where New York would be competing, a reward for slogging it out.
Itâd cost a bit but for the promotion of the game etc. the rewards would be worth it. Worth a try anyway. If they got to the finals then, they could fly them over here.
market the game in NY??
FFS Sake
Delusional
The game is on the brink of going professional
The demand is massive amongst the Oirish mate
Yes
Doesnât seem to bother this undocumented Cork tool on RTE1 now
Didnât realise he was over there
Football championship refereesâ panel:
Ciaran Branagan (Down), Barry Cassidy (Derry), David Coldrick (Meath), Niall Cullen (Fermanagh), Maurice Deegan (Laois), Marty Duffy (Sligo), David Gough (Meath), Jerome Henry (Mayo), Rory Hickey (Clare), Padraig Hughes (Armagh), Sean Hurson (Tyrone), Fergal Kelly (Longford), Conor Lane (Cork), Joe McQuillan (Cavan), Noel Mooney (Cavan), Paddy Neilan (Roscommon), Anthony Nolan (Wicklow), Derek OâMahony (Tipperary), Padraig OâSullivan (Kerry), Cormac Reilly (Meath)
Ciaran Branagan (Down) - shit
Barry Cassidy (Derry) - shit
David Coldrick (Meath) - decent
Niall Cullen (Fermanagh), - donât know
Maurice Deegan (Laois) - shit
Marty Duffy (Sligo) - utterly incompetent
David Gough (Meath) - decent
Jerome Henry (Mayo) - dreadful (my only recollection of this cunt is he was the guy who fucked the Rock over in the junior club final after awarding a second yellow to the Rock midfielder for a nudge in the back when contesting a kickout)
Rory Hickey (Clare) - not sure
Padraig Hughes (Armagh) - overly petty and fussy
Sean Hurson (Tyrone), - average
Fergal Kelly (Longford - donât know
Conor Lane (Cork) - dreadful and vindictive
Joe McQuillan (Cavan) - average
Noel Mooney (Cavan), - donât know
Paddy Neilan (Roscommon) - donât know
Anthony Nolan (Wicklow) - donât know
Derek OâMahony (Tipperary), - donât know
Padraig OâSullivan (Kerry) - donât know
Cormac Reilly (Meath) - bad
So thatâs two decent referees and two average ones, a good few I havenât really seen and a lot more bad to shit ones with Lane and Marty Duffy being the ones no side will look forward to seeing on the match program.
Itâs an awful pity Nigger had to retire
Let me fill you in on Rory Hickey.
An absolute joker who will always fuck over the underdog against a more vaunted opponent. If itâs Tyrone v one of Dublin/Kerry in the latter stages of this years championship you wonât want to see him appointed as heâll give everything to Dublin/Kerry. Heâll throw you a few handy frees when the game is over, not while itâs in the melting pot though. Consistently proved that heâs afraid of upsetting the big boys.
Iâd go as far as to say heâs the worst ref on there, along with Padraig Hughes.
Not a great list. Coldrick and Gough the two best, was impressed by that Neilan chap in the league final overall.
Referees are the new politicians - everybody hates them and even the decent ones arenât popular.
The Jerome Henry incident I refer to happens roughly at 1:44.59 here.
Itâs unbelievable.
Bit like bouncers so
Fucking hell.
I think it has to be the worst decision Iâve ever seen. Itâs one thing getting a decision wrong but the fact he clearly merits itâs a yellow card for that particular reason is baffling, imagine that cunt doing an All Ireland final or semi-final?
If weâd more referees like that lad we wouldnât have half as much messing in the game. The green lad was trying a sly hold on his opponent and got caught. Fair play to the referee.
Are you still tucking your short sleeve shirt into your bootcut jeans?
You fucking roaster.
