Referee 'shoved to ground' after Tullamore's defeat to Summerhill in Leinster Championship

The ugly scenes came after the Dublin official changed his mind about awarding a penalty to Tullamore in the closing stages of the match.

The match referee was 'shoved to the ground' after Tullamore were knocked out of the Leinster Club Football Championship by Summerhill at O'Connor Park on Sunday afternoon.

 

Shortly after the final whistle, referee Barry Tiernan had to be escorted off the pitch as he was surrounded by Tullamore players before a person outside the matchday squad appeared to push the official to the ground.

 

The ugly scenes came after the Dublin official changed his mind about awarding a penalty to Tullamore in the closing stages of the match.

 

With the Offaly side needing a goal as they trailed by two points, 1-09 to 1-07, Tullamore knocked a long ball towards the Summerhill goal that sparked a scramble for possession.

 


Tiernan first blew his whistle to indicate a free in for Tullamore outside the six yard box, but after consulting with his umpires, he pointed to the spot for a penalty.

But, as Tullamore's Paul McConway waited to take the penalty, Tiernan then consulted with his linesman before signally for a free instead of a penalty.

When John Furlong's free came to nothing for Tullamore, the final whistle blew shortly afterwards to see the match finish 1-09 to 1-07 in Summerhill's favour.

Many Tullamore players then proceeded to remonstrate with the referee who was being escorted off the pitch by O'Connor Park officials it appeared he was shoved to the ground by the individual.

Summerhill 1-9 to Tullamore1-7

Naas through to Leinster semi with comfortable win over Summerhill.

The Kildare club's reward is a semi-final clash with St Loman's of Mullingar on November 19th.

The Meath champions never got going and failed to find any sparkle. They kicked nine wides in the opening half and added three more after the interval, but they had to be thankful to their goalkeeper Sean Muddiman for keeping them in the game as he made three outstanding interventions to prevent Naas from adding to their goal tally.

Summerhill 0-8 to Nass2-12
