Referee riles boss Harte

Mickey Harte’s rant came with the qualifier that David Coldrick didn’t cost Tyrone the game.

Kerry, he acknowledged, deserved victory but he was effusive in his criticism of the Meath official, who had previously officiated in their games against Kildare and Donegal.

Harte took major exception to Brian McGuigan’s red card and admitted he was concerned last week when he learned Coldrick was assigned to take charge of the game.
