And we were very, very annoyed about it.
Johnny Murphy and Sean Stack were the officials.
They were blatantly wrong in my view.
And I was saying, if they put up their hand, one of them said, lads, we made a mistake here.
The CCC, we appealed it and it was upheld and the suspension was left there.
And we could have went further, but we had matches coming up and we said we'd let it go.
And to me, that's not right.
And when I was chairman of Offaly, I said to the CCC chairman, my very first day, I'll never interfere in your business.
It's not my job.
But I said, promise me this.
If a referee makes a mistake and a player is sent off in the round,

And you make a mistake, you make a mistake.
And I just think this whole refereeing thing, it's become, the referee, the really good referees over the years, it's a, I've said this, it's an extremely difficult job.
But the really good referees are out there.
They play it as they see it.
They make an odd mistake.
It balances out.
