Re: Qualifying Rugby
So
What is happening with the Coleraine vs Dromore match?
Hearing rumours referees won't go to Coleraine
Something about an incident involving verbal abuse and a female referee

Re: Qualifying Rugby
Russ do tell us more, the lady in question in my opinion is a very good referee, what was the sanction they got, and did the coach keep his job with Junior Ulster?

Re: Qualifying Rugby
I love a quiz, my guess is that because it was "only a woman", they got a stern warning and yes the coach kept his job.

NEVER MOVE ON. Years on, I cannot ever watch Ireland with anything but indifference, I continue to wish for the imminent death of Donal Spring, the FIRFUC's executioner of Wee Paddy & Wee Stu, and I hate the FIRFUCs with undiminished passion.
Re: Qualifying Rugby
It was a serious incident of verbal abuse of a referee by spectators. I think the match was back in March and was between Coleraine and Dromore. I don't any more.

Re: Qualifying Rugby
Heard that Absolutely vile abuse was thrown at the referee, Referees are right in boycotting this game, the branch failed badly in punishment to Coleraine.

Re: Qualifying Rugby
Given that all q1 games have a much tighter deadline to be finished with the round robin competition if coleraine keep having to postpone home games surely they will find a fairly big backlog of games at some point?
Re: Qualifying Rugby
If coleraine had any respect for the game they would name and shame and forfeit 1stXV games , some one has to be accountable. I hope the media pick yup on this story . And the Feminist , feck that would screw them.

I heard the complete opposite.Gerald the Mole wrote:Heard that Absolutely vile abuse was thrown at the referee, Referees are right in boycotting this game, the branch failed badly in punishment to Coleraine.
I heard that what was said was the sort of thing that is repeated up and down the country every Saturday.
I heard that the Branch investigation accepted that and their action was appropriate. However the ref wouldn't let it go and the Society want to make a stand.
Re: Qualifying Rugby
So, what was said then, if it’s not that bad I am sure you will repeat it , I do believe the club was found guilty of an offence and fined , but suspended as is normal in Ulster Rugby.BR wrote:I heard the complete opposite.Gerald the Mole wrote:Heard that Absolutely vile abuse was thrown at the referee, Referees are right in boycotting this game, the branch failed badly in punishment to Coleraine.

I heard that what was said ...
I did not hear what was said.
So yes, as I understand it, the club was found guilty and sanctioned in line with precedent. The same as the Branch could do at numerous clubs each week, were complaints to be lodged.

Re: Qualifying Rugby
BR, once again your waffling, what was said was bang out of order. No referee should suffer that abuse, Coleraine need to be punished more severe, points deducted and a proper an open apology to The ref might help.BR wrote:To clarify:LadyP wrote:So, what was said then, if it’s not that bad I am sure you will repeat it , I do believe the club was found guilty of an offence and fined , but suspended as is normal in Ulster Rugby.BR wrote:I heard the complete opposite.Gerald the Mole wrote:Heard that Absolutely vile abuse was thrown at the referee, Referees are right in boycotting this game, the branch failed badly in punishment to Coleraine.

So your assumption is that it was not that bad and acceptable? As you compare it to normal Saturday banter,
