Gough takes the first game.

for f**ks sake

Does the fact that these two clowns are reffing quarter finals not tell the GAA that officiating is in a bad way?

Gough hasn't been let near Dublin or Kerry game since last years SF .. personally I think he's a decent ref

Hurson, Neilan & Brannagan are the bottom feeders

Can't recall much history with Lane. He reffed the drawn final last year decently enough, other than possibly not black carding COC in dying stages.

Panicking at the start and handing kevin mc a yellow for one

On Gough, I have a theory if the ref looks like he spends too much time in the barbers and looking in mirrors then he's a narcissist and should be ditched.

That personality if fine for donegal managers, not refs

Brannigan is terrible, but I have an awful feeling he will end up getting the Dublin/Tyrone semi. Assuming that it how it pans out of course! Seems to get a lot of gigs these days for some reason. No wonder DC lost the head in Portlaosie when he spotted your man

And missing a clean pick off the ground 25 yards out after Mayo had equalised at the end and Cluxton took a quick kickout.

Lane is a sh1te ref.

Ah, we probably do have history with him, if we look hard enough for it. We're just not in the habit of whinging about refs and how they done us wrong...ad nauseum...blah blah blah...for months, nay years, after the shaggin' games are over. We just take our beatings & get on with it. Can anyone remember the ref from the 2012 or 2014 semi final defeats? Yeah, me neither !

That is certainly NOT the case for a certain two counties, west of the Shannon (here's a hint, one of them is south of Clare) over the past few years.

Would you believe "Dublin Joe" on both occasions ? :rolleyes:

You're kidding !

Pissing myself laughing in the Starbucks queue here....getting funny looks....

Yup. The definition of GAS!

Also get out of Starbucks and into a proper cafe you heathen.

Which Starbucks?

ProudDUB

The one my nephew dragged me into. The local independent cafe is (according to the little hipster fecker) strictly for aul wans, who love to argue over whose turn it is to pay for the fruit scones & which one of them is having a worse time of it with "the change."

Terrible things happen to people when they move to Stoneybatter.

corny

'Culchie Joe'.:D

Horan completely psyched out McQuillan in 2012 with his claim of him reffing Dublin training matches. Paid off in last 15 minutes which they turned into 5 with all sorts of bollix which he let go. Mind you he might have made some decisions in 2011 that would have lost Dublin the game. Swings and roundabouts!

Unacceptable. I remember when I lived in Stoneybatter and it was far from cool. I'm always into places before the crowd. Happened with Harold's Cross and Drumcondra before it.

The AMT? Rotten! My mate used to work there though? Hmmmmmmmm....

Mish Mash top of Capel St is a gem.

There's a few daycent spots about the place. No excuse to ever go to a Starbucks or a Costa etc...

Like Ballymun, Wadelai, Ballygall, a chunk of Finglas, and two roads in Drumcondra.

It is the kiosk. B&G is right.

I used to go to that place down in the basement. Loved it.
