Was David Gough correct handing out all those red cards? A more ugly foul happened a few minutes later. Are the GAA out to nail Tyrone this year? Marooning (Westmeath) - Posts: 24 - 06/02/2022 19:28:47 2398660 Link 0 |
As you say yourself, he could have sent off two more for dangerous tackles after the row. Gough stood back, took numbers, consulted with umpires and linesman. Don't think he's out to get anyone, I think he's a good ref. carlovia (None) - Posts: 1517 - 06/02/2022 19:36:13 2398665 Link 6 |
Why would the GAA be out to nail Tyrone? sean og (Armagh) - Posts: 1053 - 06/02/2022 19:38:44 2398666 Link 3 |
Not sure they are out to "nail" Tyrone but Gough clearly got it wrong. Never ever was that 4 reds. It will be overturned and Gough will look the fool.

On a wider point, Tyrone has form in being woeful the year after they win it. Obviously, 04 was a tragic once-off, but in 05 and 08, Tyrone played very good football - but in each of the following years, they weren't even competitive - they were unacceptably poor. That could be playing out again. essmac (Tyrone) - Posts: 1141 - 06/02/2022 19:50:25 2398679 Link 0 |
Thought the row looked a bit ugly, 1 or 2 players on the ground in the middle of it, lucky no serious injuries..think a red card for each side was enough roscommon1944 (Roscommon) - Posts: 275 - 06/02/2022 19:51:54 2398680 Link 1 |
For beating Mayo in the year when Mayo beat Dublin, and spoiling the nation's party. And we're generally not liked anyway! Great performance by Armagh btw, hope you keep it going and win it -no reason why not, all about belief.

Ah here Harte McGeary where clearly seen on tv cameras grabbing lads in headlocks and burying them into the ground, very dangerous, given a neck injury has ended mahers career with tipp recently it is v dangerous and ref was correct. Hempsey did it too and you could see he stepped back cos he knew it was getting dangerous, didn't see what mckernan did. All said I love Tyrone the way they play and always have a chip on their shoulder. On another note mcshanes free taking, he took an average of 40 sec to kick frees from the 21 while Tyrone where 6+ down, rock or Shea would be a bit quicker doing that when down Sam to stay in Ulster this year that's for sure Sportsfanatic90 (Westmeath) - Posts: 215 - 06/02/2022 19:56:38 2398689 Link 1 |
I don't believe the GAA are out to nail Tyrone. Individual referees will usually do their own thing and while Geogh used to be one of our better ones I think he's not as good as he was and sometimes tends to be a bit over-dramatic. I also suspect that he's not too fond of Tyrone but maybe I'm wrong. midlands (Westmeath) - Posts: 546 - 06/02/2022 20:07:06 2398700 Link 2 |
Gough is by far the best ref in the country and makes very few mistakes. giveitlong (Galway) - Posts: 1226 - 06/02/2022 20:20:27 2398707 Link 5 |
Nobody's out to nail Tyrone, as for the 5 red cards, it should have been 20 or none. Both the Armagh and Tyrone players red cards will be overturned. Gough got a lot of frees wrong on both sides .

Didn't look to be any punches thrown in the melee. Peter Harte was reckless with the headlock. FoolsGold (Cavan) - Posts: 2763 - 06/02/2022 20:24:59 2398713 Link 2 |

I was delighted for Tyrone last year, I don't think Mayo have as much neutral support as people think.

Row was handbags. Armagh are a tasty little outfit aren't they!!? realdub (Dublin) - Posts: 8597 - 06/02/2022 20:41:09 2398721 Link 4 |
Observed 4 things, Armagh men going down for no reason near the end when Tyrone had their tails up, Mc Shane taking forever to tap over frees, Tyrone playing into Armagh's usual tactic's of rowing and scuffling and Ref lost control.

Did it ever cross your mind that maybe people might not appreciate the "everyone is against us" and "the refs are out to get Tyrone" drivel ye go on with???? Do ye seriously believe that the GAA hold secret meetings in the hot press under Croke Park to figure out a way to hold ye back??? Ye usually do that yerselves. I've simply given up feeling bad for Mayo. They just need to man up and win one, simple as that. Tyrone won the All Ireland last year because they deserved it.

if this is worth five red cards I'd hate to see him ref a junior b club game between neighbouring parishes Leitrim_12 (USA) - Posts: 207 - 06/02/2022 22:04:50 2398762 Link 1 |
