Baffling how anyone thinks the ref was in the wrong and glera where 'wronged' as one poster said. People (glera) chosing to ignore the facts to suit their own agenda, they showed no respect to the referee. 17/18mins is the time they were in the dressing rooom , club games are allowed 10mins for HT. Regardless of how long they were in there the ref gave them several opportunities to come out to the filed. Along with sounding his whistle on several occasions, he sent someone in twice with the message if they didnt come out he was going to start the game. They chose to ignore this, thinking they could call the shots (assuming a tactic from their manager) and it backfired on them. Now they are whinging about it, just own it. Glera should be questioning their manager for bringing them down this road instead of trying to say it was the refs fault.
To add to this, the glera umpire made a complete clown of himself taking to the field to try stop the goal when the ref did throw the ball in. Proceeded then after all to abuse players, and club members. Should be ashamed of yourself. This is all facts.
Fair enoigh,a agrument could be made for both sides of the above incident. But what happned after this is nothing short of shameful. Swarming the ref, taking cheap shots at players, glera manager swinging like he was rocky, glera players trying to get into the referee in his changing room. These are facts, and anyone who says there not is simply just burying their head in the sand.
Glera came with a tactic saturday evening to be physcial, and thats fair enough its the game we all love. But there is a line, and they crossed it. Late hits, closed fists, burying knees etc (again no doubt a tactic encouraged strongly by their manager). The ref dealt with it straght away giving 3 yellows in first 10mins.
The county board need to take a stong stance here and set a precedence. Will they though, or will it be all swept under the carpet?

It's baffling how u think ballinaglera were in for 17/18 mins that would mean Allen geals were in for 15/16 mins which would mean they also broke the rule which u did not mention. It was 12 which is 100% a fact another fact is that the linesman came in once and ballinaglera came out straight away (which u said twice he came in another lie) the ref should of not throwing the ball up while an umpire is on the pitch. U said the umpire took to the feild to stop the goal which is incorrect. U can clearly see in the video which I'm sure u see he was already on the pitch heading back from the ref to his position which is a rule that the ref should wait until officials leave the pitch the ref made a poor decision and I'm sure he has realised that now himself. When the ballinaglera players pleaded there case which ofc u would with a ridiculous call like that in a tight match u can see blue 10 gaving cheap shot to a ballinaglera player which started a Millie. Not a single person try to enter the referee room the argument was between the managerment.
Where ballinaglera management were annoy that the Allen geals management was shouting at the ref to throw up the ball as well as players very poor sportsmanship never seen it before. The ref was Pressurised to throw in the ball. And to say ballinaglera tactic was to be physical where in the first 10 minutes a ballinaglera player had to leave the pitch after being hit with an elbow in the face and didn't return and No card gaving u must only see what u want to see. I think your incorrect assumptions should be swept under the carpet instead.

Difficult to seperate the truth from the hear sey by posters . Am I correct in saying that the incident that left the player in hospital had nothing to do with what happened with the referee at the start of the second half ? If that's the case it should not be mentioned again as it has nothing to do with the incident.
The referee's report will be submitted to the Co Board and the CCC will decide what steps to take after that. That's the protocol

Replying To theroadtocroker: "Good few of the comments on this are from a group of drumkeeran supporters, so take it with a pinch of salt, last year when the drumkeeran supporters followed the referee to the car after the drumreilly game it was fairly quiet on here. Worry about ending your intermediate famine, GLERA ABU" They must of got a suspension down to junior football because of that. haven't seen them in a while.

Fact is linesman went in twice,
Fact is also referee blew his whiltle 6 or 7 times
Also fact is h/t is 10 mins not 15 as was glera management argument they were just past the 15 mins so werent that late onto pitch,

Replying To leitrimman1994: "After all the reports of this game being posted online and on TikTok , nobody has decided to report on the aftermath of the incident , so I will take this into my own hands . As seen from the video clip that has gone viral , several glera players surrounded the referee after the goal was awarded. They shouted abuse at him , pointed fingers at him and would not let him move . Not only did all 15 ballinaglera players surround him , the rest of the management team , substitutes and a few supporters all ran onto the pitch and surrounded the referee , shouting verbal abuse and threatening to hit him . I can only imagine that the referee was afraid of his life with nearly 25 odd men in a huddle around him !!! A few of the allen gaels players attempted to protect the referee as he was in danger of being assaulted!! The allen gaels players that tried to protect the referee were then struck on numerous occasions by the ballinaglera players . The Allen Gaels management then tried to come in to break things up , where they were then struck by the ballinaglera players !!! It was thuggery at its finest . Ballinaglera are known for playing on the edge around Leitrim , but this takes the Mickey . They should be absolutely ashamed of themselves for what went on , and they should be fined and removed from the competition!! SHAME ON YOU BALLINAGLERA YE ARE AN ABSOLUTE DISGRACE" I have to reply to this as so many things that you and a lot of people on here have stated as fact are completely inaccurate. I mean no harm in this post, it is just frustrating to see one sided opinion. I was at the game on Saturday, I am from neither Ballinagleara, Drumshanbo, or Drumkeerin but the agenda against the Ballinagleara team on this forum is outrageous.
Another user stated that the team were in the dressing room for 17/18 minutes- inaccurate. The time on the board was 7.35 for half time, when resumed it was 7.47.
The ref did blow the whistle on several occasions yes, but from the middle of the field. Common sense would prevail and move closer to the dressing room to blow it louder or bang on their door(obviously people will disagree with this but it is common sense). The ref did not send anyone into to tell the Ballinalgeara team, it was a member of the ballinagleara club himself went in to tell his club that the ref was going to blow it up. Yes, they did not follow him straight out, that was their mistake but they came out within no more than 20 seconds of that club man coming out. Which makes it more bizarre, is that the ref was throwing up the ball just as the players were coming out of the dressing room (I had a direct view of this).
You stated 15 players and management surrounded the referee- inaccurate. The 7 or 8 of the Ballinagleara players swarmed the ref at first (this is all on the video), with more players coming in, they were telling their own players to back away from the ref.
You state the Allen Gaels players tried to protect the ref, inaccurate. Nobody has mentioned the geering from the Allen Gaels players to the Ballinagleara players just as the referee blew the whistle to abandon the game. One player from Allen Gaels rocking a conor mcgregor stance, smiling and laughing at the Ballinagleara players shouting 'great goal wasnt it'. I played for years myself, in my day, you do silly things when a game of football is on the line, but once the whistle blows you shake hands. Theses Allen Gaels players were adding salt to the wound. It in fact, was none of their business, they should ( which they did too little too late) have immediately been brought away from the Ballinagleara team and the ref.
The management of Ballinagleara let their team down near the dressing room when there was fighting but the fighting was between the Allen Gaels management also, not just the Ballinagleara.
Both teams and the ref are in the wrong through this whole series of events. Everybody was let down here, the players, both clubs and the spectators. But what did the referee think was going to happen, when he threw up that ball to a one sided pitch. He should have noted it in his report that Ballinagleara were late. And possibly gave them a fine. But carried one with what was going to be an enjoyable match.
Your defamatory comments toward the ballinalgeara team on here should be removed as per the forum guidelines. You clearly have your own agenda with those comments and they are completely uncalled for.
Ballinagleara will come out the wrong side of this. Some of it justified, but it is all just disappointing in my opinion.
