Great justice is served and maybe the black card rule be looked at again Dellboypolecat (Tyrone) - Posts: 15069 - 11/07/2019 23:12:16 2209753 Link
Good decision. gaelicgab (USA) - Posts: 878 - 12/07/2019 10:49:21 2209855 Link
Proper order. waynoI (Dublin) - Posts: 13650 - 12/07/2019 10:54:31 2209861 Link
Still sitting on 2 black cards by all accounts, one more against Roscommon he misses Cork game, one against Cork he misses Dubs game, one against Dubs misses potential semi-final. Awful rule, if we beat the Rossies, and are beating Cork there is a good chance ( if he hasn't got one already in either match ) I wonder might he just happen to get one in the last few minutes.

Replying To Dellboypolecat: "Great justice is served and maybe the black card rule be looked at again" Great stuff, I'm delighted for him, those black cards should never have been given. KingdomBoy1 (Kerry) - Posts: 14092 - 12/07/2019 11:28:54 2209879 Link
Right decision for me , the only one I thought was a black card was the last one against Cavan. The other two were never for me. So we're all 3 black cards overturned or how does it work out? clondalkindub (Dublin) - Posts: 9926 - 12/07/2019 11:31:51 2209880 Link

He'll probably try and the way referees are doing things these days, he'll get a yellow! cavanman47 (Cavan) - Posts: 5010 - 12/07/2019 11:49:31 2209890 Link

So we're all 3 black cards overturned or how does it work out?" Only need to have 1 overturned, so he still has 2 to his name. Can only appeal any of them after receiving 3! Correct decision though, looking forward to tomorrow evening! Douglas_44 (Roscommon) - Posts: 225 - 12/07/2019 12:00:58 2209896 Link
Replying To Douglas_44: "Only need to have 1 overturned, so he still has 2 to his name. Can only appeal any of them after receiving 3! Correct decision though, looking forward to tomorrow evening!" These cards are mostly overturned on appeal. Noel O' Leary was cleared to play in an All Ireland final, even after he landed an uppercut to Graham Geraghty's jaw.

A small measure of the right thing being done. He should never have been put in such a place initially and it still leaves him in a precarious situation going forward with still 2 black cards to his name. Have to be glad he's cleared to play though. seanie_boy (Tyrone) - Posts: 4235 - 12/07/2019 12:29:33 2209914 Link

I believe they are going further in the appeal for the other 2 now Dellboypolecat (Tyrone) - Posts: 15069 - 12/07/2019 18:41:20 2210071 Link
Good to see him play tomorrow. He is not a dirty player but is careless to get 2other cards. The rules are poor around what constitutes a black card. There are more serious crimes in football that just get yellow. Donegalman (None) - Posts: 3830 - 12/07/2019 19:15:03 2210086 Link
Say Tyrone beat Roscommon and are 8 points up against Cork with 5 mins to go.....meaning they are though and play Dublin in a dead rubber.....should Harte take a black card, miss the dead rubber against Dublin, leaving him free to play semi? I know it's hypothetical but what would you do? The_Fridge (Tyrone) - Posts: 2088 - 12/07/2019 21:17:28 2210131 Link

And visa versa . Inaroundehouse (Cavan) - Posts: 975 - 13/07/2019 10:22:01 2210222 Link
Best of luck to Roscommon today. It's all about believing in yourselves mayomanic (Mayo) - Posts: 85 - 13/07/2019 11:59:48 2210240 Link
So wrong decisions by the ref that in some cases effect the result of the game stand, but cards given on the day can be appealed and in a lot of cases the result of the appeal depends on what county you play for and how much pull your county have in Croke park. Sound just about right. We have a 2 tier system already in case ye did not notice. giveballaghback (Roscommon) - Posts: 296 - 13/07/2019 12:20:38 2210248 Link

You may recall Sergio Ramos doing something similar under Mourinho at Real Madrid in the CL a few years ago. He got a two game suspension as far as I recall. Less appeals in UEFA than the GAA though!
