Killester lodge protest over referee

DART Killester have lodged a protest over the refereeing of last weekend’s tie against Star of the Sea, but coach Mark Ingle said yesterday there was no question of seeking a replay or anything like that.

Speaking in advance of this weekend's visit to Cork where they play Neptune in the ESB SuperLeague, he said they just wanted to bring the whole issue of bad refereeing to the attention of the SuperLeague.

"The overall standard of refereeing is going to have to sharpen up. They are the highest paid people in the game for an hour. The Americans would have to work seven or eight hours to get what they are paid," he said.
